​Bridges on TON

Sometimes it is necessary to transfer cryptocurrency from one blockchain to another. It may be helpful if there are unique benefits in another blockchain that the first does not have. There are bridges on TON that make this procedure easy and user-friendly.

Currently, there exist only two official bridges on the TON blockchain: TON-ERC20 bridge and TON-BEP20 bridge. It is popular among community users to transfer tokens via bridge to store them on Metamask that the native TON blockchain does not support. For some users, it is essential to be able to add them into the liquidity pool or use DEX. And bridges are an ultimate way to make it all possible.

It’s not difficult to understand how the bridges work. To get your coins on another blockchain, you should send them to the ad hoc smart-contract address. Here they stay blocked unless you won’t want to transfer them back. As soon as you send TONs to the smart-contract, they will be released on another blockchain.

In one of the following posts, you will learn how to bring your funds to the bridge step by step. Don’t forget about our bot where you can always ask some questions.
