Ethereum ↔ Binance Smart Chain

Bridging HMT Tokens Between Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain#

At HUMAN, we facilitate secure, fast, and cost-efficient token transfers between Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain (BSC) using the Wormhole Portal. This enables users to interact seamlessly with both ecosystems.

What is the Wormhole Bridge?#

Wormhole is a cross-chain messaging and asset-bridging protocol that lets applications and users transfer tokens and data between different blockchains.

Steps to Bridge Tokens#

  1. Go to the official Wormhole Portal.
  2. Connect your wallet (e.g., MetaMask) to the Ethereum network.
  3. Select Ethereum as the Source Network and Binance Smart Chain as the Target Network. To bridge in the other direction, just swap source and destination networks.
  4. Select HMT as the token you want to bridge. You can find token addresses here.

  5. Populate the amount to bridge and click on NEXT.

Important Considerations#

  • Gas Fees: Bridging transactions require gas fees on both Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain, which may vary based on network congestion.
  • Bridging Time: Withdrawals back to Ethereum are usually quick, but deposits to BSC may take longer (typically 15 minutes).
  • Double-Check Addresses: Ensure the wallet addresses are correct to avoid loss of funds.
