πŸŒ‰How to: Move Assets onto Polygon

Moving assets onto Polygon by using a bridge or by withdrawing from an exchange.

In order to provide liquidity and/or farm $DAIKI tokens on Polygon, you'll need to bridge assets to Polygon's blockchain. This can be achieved by bridging tokens from others blockchains (using a bridge), or by withdrawing Polygon-compatible tokens from an Exchange.

πŸŒ‰ Option 1: Bridging Assets Onto Polygon

Ethereum (ETH) to Polygon (MATIC)

The recommended method for bridging assets from Ethereum to Polygon is by using Polygon's official bridge. The official bridge currently supports a wide array of tokens that can be bridged by paying a fee in ETH. When you first use the bridge, 0.1 MATIC will be sent to your account so you are able to pay for the transaction fees.

Binance Smart Chain (BSC) to Polygon

In order to bridge tokens from Binance Smart Chain onto Polygon you will need to use an unofficial bridge (xPollinate). This bridge charges a small fee for using its service and is maintained by an independent team so DYOR before using it.

Supported tokens:

  • DAI

  • USDC

  • USDT

πŸ’± Option 2: Withdrawing tokens from an Exchange

An alternative option for moving assets onto Polygon is to withdraw $MATIC from a centralized exchange. Withdrawing from an exchange requires registering an account and withdrawal fees are applied.

Exchanges:

🚰 $MATIC Faucet

if you end up in a situation where you do not have enough $MATIC to pay for the transaction fees required to send tokens or to interact with smart contracts, you can always use matic.supply to get free $MATIC tokens.
