Understand asset pages in Phantom
In Phantom on mobile, assets with the same ticker, such as USDC on different networks, are grouped into a single asset page. The page shows one default variant and a total balance across all your holdings in this asset.
For example, if you own multiple variants of the same asset, such as USDC on Solana and USDC on Ethereum, they remain separate and are shown under Your Positions on the asset page.
View a position in detail #
To open a specific Position Detail View, tap the variant under Your Positions on the grouped asset page. If you’re already viewing a specific asset variant, tap View [ticker] in the upper left to go back to the grouped asset view.
Position Detail View shows the variant’s price chart and your position details, including position value, return, balance, cost basis, and realized gains or losses. From this screen, you can also send, receive, share, sell, or buy more.
Switch between asset variants #
To view or trade another variant, follow these steps:
- Open an asset, such as USDC. The default variant shown is on Solana.
- Tap the chevron next to the USDC ticker.
- Select the variant you want, such as USDC on Arc.
- Tap Trade, then choose Buy or Sell to trade spot USDC on Arc. If an asset has a perp market, you will also see the Long and Short options.
To understand which version of the asset you're looking at, such as which network it's at, scroll to the About section.
How Phantom chooses the default variant #
For major assets on networks we support, like BTC, ETH, and SOL, the default variant is the native version of an asset on its home network.
For assets on networks Phantom doesn't support, we default to the Solana-wrapped version where one exists.
For all other assets, Phantom chooses the default variant based on liquidity, trading activity, and execution quality. Solana variants are generally preferred because they’re easiest to trade within Phantom. However, if another supported network consistently offers a better experience, that variant may become the default instead.
With all assets, you can easily switch between supported variants by tapping the chevron next to the asset ticker.
When the default changes #
Phantom only changes a default variant when it improves the experience for most users. For example, after a bridge improvement, a sustained shift in trading activity, or issues affecting price data or execution quality.
