Solflare now accepts deposits from Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major chains — through a permanent deposit address, not a traditional bridge. Powered by Aurora and NEAR Intents.
Up until now, getting your funds onto Solana from another chain required some work: find a bridge, connect a wallet on each side, pick a route, approve transactions on both chains, and hope you don’t end up with a wrapped token you didn’t sign up for.
Bridge is a new way to fund your Solflare wallet from Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major chains. You get a permanent deposit address, send to it from any wallet, and your funds arrive on Solana in the token you chose. No wallet connecting, route-picking or trusting bridge apps.
A deposit address (Not a traditional bridge)
You can imagine your bridge address as a centralized exchange deposit address — except it is fully self-custodial, and the funds land directly in your own Solflare wallet.
Every source chain and receiving token pairing you set up gives you a permanent address for that combination. The same pairing always gives the same address. Set it up once and reuse it forever — like an account number for that chain.
Want to receive USDC from Arbitrum? You get one address for that. SOL from Ethereum? Another address. Each pairing has its own address, and none of them ever change.
That’s what makes Bridge different from other cross-chain options. Instead of making you connect two wallets and drive a swap like in a traditional bridge, Solflare gives you an address.
How Bridge works
- Click Deposit in your Solflare wallet on mobile, web, or extension and select Bridge
- Pick the chain you’re sending from and the token you want to receive on Solana
- Copy your permanent deposit address
- Send to it from any wallet on the source chain (no connection needed)
- Funds arrive in your Solflare wallet, in your chosen token, usually within minutes
Most EVM chains settle in about a minute. Bitcoin takes around fourteen minutes.
Your wallet never connects to an unfamiliar app. You only ever interact with an address.
Supported source chains at launch: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Arbitrum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Tron, NEAR, and Base, plus additional networks. Token availability is subject to liquidity. Only send supported assets — sending an unsupported asset can result in permanent loss of funds.
0% fees for the first 30 days
For the first 30 days after launch, Bridge deposits are 0% fee — up to $125k in waived fees across the launch window.
After the window, the standard fee structure applies: 0.1% for stablecoin-to-stablecoin transfers, 1% for all other token combinations, calculated on the asset you receive.
The fee you’ll pay is shown before you send.
Get started

New to crypto on-ramps? Bridge is one of the fastest ways to move existing crypto holdings onto Solana and into your self-custodial wallet — without handing custody to anyone along the way.
