How to bridge assets from Ethereum to Astar EVM

In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to bridge USDC from Ethereum to Astar. By doing so, you will be adding liquidity to our network, which benefits the ecosystem overall, and for which we convey our deepest gratitude.

Visit cBridge https://cbridge.celer.network/#/transfer and input a currency you would like to transfer.

After the transaction, you will see:

and you will receive some tokens in your MetaMask, on the destination network.

The difference betweeen USDT vs. bridgedUSDT

When Tether USD on Astar comes through Statemint, it will be the native USDT token in the Astar ecosystem.

ceUSDT on Astar is a wrapped version of Ethereum USDT, supported by Celer cBridge and liquidity network. Due to this, ceUSDT is not as versatile as native USDT. For example, native USDT registered as XC20 can be used for both Wasm and EVM projects in the Astar ecosystem, but bridged (ce)USDT cannot be used for Wasm projects.
