Hana makes multi-chain crypto simple — https://hanawallet.io/

To utilise your ICZ on the EVM side of SNOW you must migrate your ICZ between SNOW and SNOW EVM. You can do this manually via a transfer by doing some account mapping and a few transactions. You can read more information here https://docs.icenetwork.io/ice-testnet-details/accounts-mapping and https://iconosphereio.medium.com/substrate-evm-address-39bfa92f875c about the technicalities.

The great news is Hana takes away all the technical jargon for you and allows you to move seamlessly between SNOW and SNOW EVM. This guide will take you through the process.

Open Hana, select “Trade” and select “Bridge”

Next, you can select the tokens you want to bridge, in this case, ICZ (SNOW EVM).

Select the destination chain of SNOW.

Enter the amount you want to bridge and select “Next”.

You will be prompted with a final review screen. Double-check all the details, accept the terms and select “Bridge”

Note: When moving ICZ from SNOW EVM to SNOW technically two transactions are required, hence it might take a little longer.

If your ICZ is removed from SNOW EVM but has not shown up in your SNOW balance after a few minutes you can attempt to process the withdrawal manually. Typically with Hana this is not required.
