# ETH Adapters

Nocturne does not natively support transferring or receiving ETH. Because of this limitation, we require adapter contracts for a select few use cases. Currently, these include sending ETH to new addresses and using staking protocols (e.g. RocketPool and Lido).

**ETH Transfer Adapter:** Receives WETH, converts to ETH, and transfers that ETH to the specified address.

**RocketPool Adapter:** Receives WETH, converts to ETH, deposits ETH into the RocketPool deposit contract, gets RETH in return, and transfers the outstanding RETH back to the caller.

**wstETH Adapter:** Receives WETH, converts to ETH, deposits ETH to the wstETH token contract, gets wstETH back from Lido, and transfers the outstanding wstETH back to the caller.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://nocturne-xyz.gitbook.io/nocturne/protocol-details/contracts/eth-adapters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
