Guide: Telos x ApeSwap Bridging
As part of the Telos Fuel Initiative, the Telos EVM is now live on ApeSwap, allowing users to bridge tokens from networks like Polygon, Avalanche, BNB Chain, and many more to the tEVM through Multichain. If you’ve already bridged tokens to your wallet and are ready to start farming on ApeSwap, follow this link.
However, if you are here to learn how to get started, this tutorial will detail the necessary steps.
Is Telos EVM in Your Wallet?
The first step is to ensure your wallet has the tEVM network available to connect with the Multichain bridge. A list of ApeSwap-compatible wallets can be found below:
- Metamask
- Brave Wallet
- MathWallet
- Nabox Wallet
If you’re already a holder of one of these wallets, you can add the Telos EVM network through Teloscan.io or Chainlist.
Ready? Set? Bridge!
Now that you’ve installed the tEVM network into one of the wallets above, you’re ready to start bridging tokens from other chains over to Telos. Currently, ApeSwap supports the following tokens on Telos: BANANA, ETH, BTC, USDT, USDC, and TLOS — with more to come!
Step 1
Access the Multichain cross-chain router through the following link and connect your wallet:
https://app.multichain.org/#/router
Step 2
See where it says “From”? That’s where you’ll select the input token and chain you wish to bridge from to Telos.
Step 3
In the “To” section, select the same token you wish to receive on Telos and Telos EVM as the output chain.
Step 4
Heading back to the input token, select the number of tokens you want to bridge from the input chain to Telos EVM. Upon doing so, you’ll be provided with information such as the Cross-chain Fee, transaction minimum and maximum amounts, and estimated Cross-chain arrival time.
Step 5
You’re now ready to bridge! Click the “swap,” and your tokens will arrive in your Telos EVM wallet in the time frame indicated.
Time to Ape!
Once the tokens have arrived in your tEVM wallet, you’ll then be able to connect to ApeSwap and leverage any of the Telos-enabled products on the ApeSwap platform! This consists of the following:
- ApeSwap DEX: trade six tokens and counting on Telos
- Telos Farms: stake Telos partner LPs to earn partner tokens
- Treasury Bills: use Telos LPs to purchase discounted partner tokens
- Users that bridge their tokens in advance will have the opportunity for the early, higher APRs in Telos Farms and deeper token discounts through Treasury Bills.
