Boardwalk activates BMX to BWLK token migration module on Ethereum
Boardwalk, a protocol built around fee protection and transparent token economies, has flipped the switch on its BMX-to-BWLK migration module. The tool, now live on the project’s website, lets eligible holders of BMX tokens on Base convert them into staked BWLK tokens on Ethereum at a clean 1:1 ratio.
How the migration works
BMX holders connect to the migration module, submit their tokens, and receive staked BWLK in return. The 1:1 exchange rate removes guesswork.
Boardwalk first announced the migration on July 15, followed by a timeline confirmation on July 20. The module itself went live on July 23, sticking to the announced schedule.
The migration window will remain open for approximately six months.
BWLK is being deployed across multiple platforms, including Ethereum, Base, Robinhood, and Arbitrum. Native liquidity incentives are part of the rollout, designed to bootstrap trading activity across these venues.
The supply math behind BWLK
BWLK was originally launched through a Uniswap Continuous Clearing Auction, or CCA. The initial planned supply was 3,150,000 tokens.
Boardwalk burned 160,222 tokens, bringing the current total supply down to 2,989,778 BWLK — about 5% of the planned supply permanently removed before the migration module went live.
The burn aligns with Boardwalk’s stated focus on maintaining a “balanced supply” while keeping its community actively involved in governance decisions. The project has implemented public snapshot reviews and staked token distributions as part of this framework.
Why cross-chain migrations matter
The inclusion of Robinhood in the deployment list is particularly notable. Robinhood’s crypto platform caters to retail users who may never interact with a DEX or bridge, opening BWLK to an audience outside traditional DeFi.
Boardwalk has been sharing official links through its Discord and other community channels specifically to help users avoid scam contracts that impersonate migration tools.
The staked nature of the received BWLK tokens means migrated tokens are immediately put to work within the protocol’s staking mechanism. Holders should understand any lock-up periods or unstaking delays before committing.
What this means for investors
For existing BMX holders, the migration offers six months to convert at a guaranteed 1:1 rate into a token with a current supply of 2,989,778 — live on Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Robinhood.
A supply of just under 3 million tokens is already quite small by crypto standards. Thin order books on a low-supply token can lead to violent price swings in either direction.

The U.S. Treasury Department has accused Turkish investment bank Golden Global of acting as a key intermediary in Iran's shadow banking network, assisting in transferring Iranian oil revenue to Turkey and exchanging it for cash and gold. As a result, the bank has been placed on the "blacklist," effectively severing its ties to the U.S. dollar financial system. Sanctions experts have warned that this move may provoke retaliation from Iran.
