Bridge from Ethereum to Blast on Enkrypt with Blast Bridge
Read the following guide for help bridging to Blast L2 using Enkrypt wallet!
Get your Ethereum assets onto Blast to start using web3 with lower fees
Blast is not only an ETH L2, but the only EVM chain with native yield for ETH and stablecoins. Blast generates yield from ETH staking and RWA protocols, which is automatically returned to Blast users. In contrast to other L2 platforms with a default interest rate of 0%, Blast offers a 4% yield for ETH and a 5% yield for stablecoins.
Enkrypt is a multichain, non-custodial, and open-source web3 browser wallet built by the team behind MEW (MyEtherWallet). With Enkrypt, users and developers can generate accounts, manage tokens and NFTs, and interact with DApps on Blast, as well as Substrate and Bitcoin chains. Follow the instructions in this guide in order to bridge to Blast!
Layer 2s and scalability networks like Blast are compatible with Ethereum, but you can't just send assets from Ethereum to Blast in a regular transaction. The way to transfer assets between Ethereum and Layer 2s is through applications called bridges.
To start trading tokens on Blast instead of Ethereum, bridge your assets to the Blast network.
Enabling Blast Network
Unlock your Enkrypt wallet then select ‘Manage networks’ at the bottom left of the extension.
Type ‘Blast’ in the search bar and enable the Blast network.
Now you are ready to Bridge your ETH to Blast!
Bridging ETH to Blast
First head over to the Blast Bridge website then select ‘Connect Wallet’.
Blast Bridge is a third-party DApp and is not affiliated with MEW in any way. Bridging assets from network to network involves some inherent risk. Please do your research and proceed at your own discretion.
On the Connect Wallet pop up, select ‘MetaMask’.
This works because Enkrypt supports the same connection as MetaMask.
On the Enkrypt pop up, select the account you want to connect with then click ‘Connect’.
There should be another pop up on Enkrypt asking you to sign a message to sign in.
Select ‘Sign’ after reviewing the message.
After you have successfully connected, you can click the ‘ETH’ dropdown menu to select the token you want to bridge.
Select the token you would like to bridge.
For this example we will choose ‘ETH’.
Enter the amount of ETH you want to Bridge then click ‘Submit’.
On the Enkrypt pop up, confirm the transaction by clicking ‘Send’.
Once the bridging process is completed, you should see a pop up at the top right stating you have deposited to Blast.
You can view the status of your transaction by clicking the ‘History’ tab.
You should also see your ETH on the Blast network on Enkrypt.
