Bridging
Bridging allows you to securely transfer your Avant Protocol tokens (e.g., avETH) from their native chain to another supported blockchain. This process is powered by Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), the industry standard for secure cross-chain communication.
Chain Availability
For a detailed breakdown of which Avant assets are native to each blockchain and which can be bridged, please see the overview table on our Core Tokens page.
This guide will walk you through the steps to bridge your assets using the Avant application.
Step-by-Step Guide
Open the Bridge Interface
Navigate to the Avant application and click the Bridge button, located in the top-right corner of the page next to your connected wallet address.
Select the Token
From the dropdown menu, select the specific Avant token you wish to bridge.
Note: The destination address will default to your connected wallet. You can edit this field if you wish to send the bridged tokens to a different address.
Enter the Amount and Networks
Amount: Input the quantity of the token you want to transfer.
From / To: Select your source network (where the tokens are now) and your destination network (where you want to send them).
Review Details & Bridge
The interface will display the estimated bridging fee and the ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival). Review this information carefully before proceeding.
Approve: Before initiating the bridge, you must grant the protocol permission to interact with the selected token.
Bridge: After the approval is confirmed, click the Bridge button and confirm the final transaction in your wallet.
Monitoring Your Transfer
Once you have submitted the transaction, you can monitor its status in the bridge interface.
The transfer should typically complete within the ETA provided. However, times can vary depending on the congestion of the networks involved. If your transaction takes significantly longer than the estimated time, please reach out to the team.
