    }
  }

Configuration

address

Address of token.

import { useContractEvent } from 'wagmi'

const App = () => {
  const [{ data, error, loading }, getToken] = useToken({
    address: '0x1f9840a85d5af5bf1d1762f925bdaddc4201f984',
  })

  return ...
}

formatUnits (optional)

Formats balance using ethers.js units. Defaults to ether.

import { useContractEvent } from 'wagmi'

const App = () => {
  const [{ data, error, loading }, getToken] = useToken({
    address: '0x1f9840a85d5af5bf1d1762f925bdaddc4201f984',

    address: '0x1f9840a85d5af5bf1d1762f925bdaddc4201f984',
