How to Bridge Crypto
A bridge moves value between networks. Use the Help Center steps below to verify the source chain, destination wallet, asset, quote, and confirmation requirements before sending.
Step-by-step
- 1
Choose the source and destination networks in the route preview.
- 2
Confirm the exact asset, contract, destination address format, estimated receive amount, fees, and quote window.
- 3
Create the route and send only the requested asset on the requested network.
- 4
Save the receipt and source transaction hash, then track confirmations until the destination transfer is reported complete.
Safety warning
A deposit sent on the wrong network, with the wrong asset, or to an old address may not be recoverable. Recovery is never guaranteed.
Common mistakes
- Using an old deposit address
- Sending a token version the route does not support
- Depositing after the quote expires

What is a crypto bridge?
A bridge route moves value from one blockchain to another. The route can involve source-chain confirmation, provider processing, and destination-chain delivery, so the source and destination network must be checked separately.
Open in Help Center →How do I bridge crypto to another network?
Open a supported bridge route, select the source and destination networks, review the asset, fees, expected amount, and deposit instructions, then send only the requested asset on the requested network. Track the receipt until delivery.
Open in Help Center →Why is my bridge transaction pending?
First check whether the source transaction has the required confirmations. If it does, compare the receipt status with the provider or destination-chain state. Do not send a second deposit unless the route explicitly tells you to.
Open in Help Center →What happens if I send funds on the wrong network?
A route may not detect or process a deposit sent from an unsupported network. Save the transaction hash and do not attempt repeated deposits. Recovery, if any, depends on the receiving address, network, provider, and route state and is never guaranteed.
