Question 2

The Token’s Contract Address Changed After Bridging

Accepted Answer

Why Did I Receive a Different Token?

If you've received tokens with a different contract address after bridging with ChainPort, don't worry – it's part of the process. When bridging tokens via the lock and mint bridging method with ChainPort, you get a ChainPort-wrapped token on the target chain with a different contract address. A token’s contract address changes depending on the blockchain it operates. You can double-check a token’s contract address on different chains on CoinGecko or blockchain scanners.

Why is There a Difference:

A wrapped crypto token is typically a digital asset converted to function on a blockchain network other than its original one. This ensures cross-chain compatibility and easy exchangeability.

Check Liquidity:

To ensure liquidity, always check the contract address of the token you're trying to port. Visit our explorer to verify if the project has officially chosen ChainPort as its bridge.

Question 6

Bridging Tokens With Cardano Wallets

Accepted Answer

| When using the Cardano-based Eternl, Nami, and Yoroi wallets, it is important to take the following steps in order to ensure a successful porting process:

Eternl Wallet

Before beginning the token porting process, make sure to enable the “Single Address Mode (SAM)” to ensure that all of your token transactions are processed through a single address. This will make it easier to keep track of your tokens when porting. Eternl - Singe Address Mode

Yoroi Wallet

When porting tokens using Yoroi wallet, make sure that you are only porting tokens to the root address. To find the root address, access the “receive” tab and select “external.” The root address will be listed at the bottom of the page.

Nami Wallet

Nami wallet can be used immediately upon connection, as it only uses a single address.
