Bridging to Canto
With the canto.io frontend, you can natively bridge to Canto from Ethereum, Cosmos Hub, and other IBC-enabled chains. Once bridged, you'll be able to move assets to the Canto EVM and begin interacting with Canto's Free Public Infrastructure and DApps.
At present, the Ethereum bridge supports WETH, USDC, USDT, and wstETH transfers (via Gravity Bridge) and CANTO transfers (via LayerZero). To bridge assets from the Ethereum network to the Canto network, follow these steps:
- 1.
- 2.If bridging to Canto for the first time, generate a Canto public key by clicking on the red banner at the top of the page and signing the message with your wallet.
- 3.Select the token you would like to bridge and input the quantity.
- 4.Click
bridge inand confirm the transaction(s) in your wallet. In addition to the bridge transaction, you may need to confirm transactions to wrap ETH and/or approve the token.
Bridged assets arrive on the Canto EVM after approximately 20 minutes.
Since the Canto v7.0.0 upgrade, no additional steps are needed to bridge Ethereum-native assets to Canto.
IBC transfers can be used to bridge selected assets including ATOM, GRAV, and OSMO to Canto from Cosmos Hub and other IBC-enabled chains.
To ensure the assets you bridge in can be used on the Canto EVM, use the canto.io frontend to initiate IBC transfers:
- 1.
- 2.If bridging to Canto for the first time, generate a Canto public key by clicking on the red banner at the top of the page and signing the message with your wallet.
- 3.Select the IBC token you would like to bridge. This will prompt a Keplr popup asking you to unlock your wallet, connect to the token's native network, and add the Canto network (if necessary).
- 4.In the IBC transfer modal that appears, enter the amount you would like to bridge, click
IBC IN, and confirm the transaction in Keplr:
Assets bridged from IBC-enabled chains to Canto will arrive on the Canto Bridge several minutes after the IBC transfer is submitted.
