Summary

The two ways to bridge Bitcoin.com's ecosystem token VERSE from the Ethereum blockchain to fxVERSE on the Polygon blockchain are:
1. Swap VERSE (Ethereum) to fxVERSE (Polygon) on Bitcoin.com's decentralized exchange Verse DEX.

Getting VERSE on Polygon (fxVERSE) using Bitcoin.com's decentralized exchange Verse DEX

  1. Connect. Either connect to Verse DEX via the Bitcoin.com Wallet app (Home > Verse Explorer > Verse DEX > Swap) or connect to Verse DEX on web using WalletConnect or via browser extension wallet (eg. Metamask)

  2. Swap. Choose any asset on Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, of BNB Smart Chain as the asset to swap from. Select fxVERSE on Polygon as the asset to swap to.

And that's it! Once the swap goes through, you'll have fxVERSE on Polygon. More detailed instructions for swapping across chains using Verse DEX can be found here.

Step-by-step instructions to bridge VERSE from Ethereum to Polygon with Polygon's Native Bridge

  1. Visit Polygon's Native Bridge and connect your wallet. If you're connecting your Bitcoin.com Wallet app, choose WalletConnect as the connection method, then tap the "scan" icon at the top-right corner of the Bitcoin.com Wallet app's home screen and use your phone's camera to scan the QR code that is displayed on the Polygon native bridge website. If you have multiple Ethereum wallets, be sure to choose the Ethereum wallet that is holding your VERSE. Confirm the connection in your Bitcoin.com Wallet app by tapping "CONNECT" in the Bitcoin.com Wallet app.

  2. Select the networks to bridge to and from. On Polygon's Native Bridge website, for "Transfer from" select Ethereum and for "Transfer to" select Polygon POS.

  3. Select the asset to bridge from Ethereum to Polygon. To select VERSE as the asset to bridge, you will need to first go into the settings on Polygon's Native Bridge website and add custom token. Here is the Polygon PoS contract address for VERSE token: 0xc708d6f2153933daa50b2d0758955be0a93a8fec

  4. Enter the amount of VERSE to bridge, then press the transfer button.

  5. Confirm the transaction in your Bitcoin.com Wallet app.

Notes:

  • The time it takes for your VERSE to bridge to Polygon fluctuates. At the time of writing it was about 20 minutes.

  • You will need to pay gas fees on the Ethereum network to execute the transaction on the Ethereum side, as well as a small bridge transfer fee to the Polygon Native Bridge protocol.

  • To transact with VERSE on the Polygon network, you will need a small amount of Polygon's native token MATIC to pay gas (transaction fees). Learn more about fees on Polygon here.
