getNativeBalance shows 8 BNB instead of 0.8 BNB

Hello,
I have 0.8 test BNB into my wallet but getNativeBalance shows 8 BNB instead of 0.8 BNB when i run it.
Why? Where is the 0?
Thanks.

Where does it show 8 bnb? It should not return a number in bnb

#3

I mean it shows 8 instead of 0.8 when i console log or display it(I have 0.8 into my wallet not 8, this is the problem)

#4

And how did you get that number? That is what the api returned? Are you sure you have 0.8 bnb?

#5

Here is the code:

const fetchNativeBalance = async () => {
    // get mainnet native balance for the current user
    const balance = await Web3Api.account.getNativeBalance({
      chain: "bsc testnet",
    });

Yes, i’m sure.

#6

That code doesn’t print anything

#7

I know, i didn’t add the whole code.

Here is the whole code;

import React, { useState, useEffect } from "react";
import { useMoralisWeb3Api } from "react-moralis";

function GetBalance() {
  const Web3Api = useMoralisWeb3Api();
  const [userBalance, setUserBalance] = useState("");

  const fetchNativeBalance = async () => {
 
    const balance = await Web3Api.account.getNativeBalance({
      chain: "bsc testnet",
    });


    const showBalance = balance.balance;
    setUserBalance(showBalance);
  };

  useEffect(() => {
    fetchNativeBalance();
  });

  return (
    <div>
      <h6> Your balance: {userBalance} BNB </h6>
      {console.log(userBalance)}
    </div>
  );
}

export default GetBalance;

That seems strange. What number you get if you try directly in admin interface in web3api tab?

#9 
{
  "balance": "722076000000000000"
}

It doesn’t show decimals too(on admin interface in web3Api tab)

My current BNB value= 0.7221 BNB

#10

This is the right number, this is what you should get in your code too

#11

I don’t have 722076000000000000 BNB :slight_smile:
How can i add decimals?
