With the 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) as well as CANTO and cNOTE transfers (via LayerZero). To bridge assets from the Ethereum network to the Canto network, follow these steps:
Navigate to and connect your MetaMask wallet on the Ethereum network.
Select the token you would like to bridge and input the quantity.
Click BRIDGE IN
and 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.
Assets bridged from Ethereum arrive on the Canto EVM after approximately 20 minutes.
IBC transfers can be used to bridge selected assets including ATOM, GRAV, and OSMO to Canto from Cosmos Hub and other IBC-enabled chains.
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).
Input the quantity and click BRIDGE IN
.
Confirm the transaction in Keplr.
To ensure the assets you bridge in can be used on the Canto EVM, use the frontend to initiate IBC transfers:
Navigate to and connect your MetaMask wallet on the Ethereum network.

Advanced users may wish to initiate IBC transfers manually. Before doing so, ensure the token you are transferring is one of the and that you are bridging the token from its native chain.
Navigate to and connect your MetaMask wallet on the Ethereum network.
