Crosschain Transaction Guide (EVM-compatible networks)

Last updated 8 months ago

An in-depth guide outlining how to complete a crosschain transaction between EVM-compatible networks using both the and the .

This guide will demonstrate two separate crosschain transactions:

  1. $ETH from Wanchain to Ethereum using the

  2. $AVAX from Avalanche to Wanchain using the with Metamask

Note: All crosschain transactions between EVM networks follow the same process. This includes all supported EVM networks including Wanchain, Ethereum, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Fantom, Moonriver, Moonbeam, etc.

Crosschain transactions using the Wanchain Desktop Wallet

Step 1: Enable ETH and wanETH to the Wanchain Desktop Wallet.

Navigate to Wallet → More Tokens.

Scroll down until you see ETH. Then, click the stars next to ETH and wanETH. As in the screenshot below.

$ETH and $wanETH wallets are now enabled and appear in your portfolio overview.

Step 2: Initiate a crosschain transaction to move your $ETH from Wanchain to Ethereum.

Navigate to Cross Chain → ETH → Ethereum <-> Wanchain

Since you are moving $ETH from Wanchain to Ethereum, click “Convert” next to your wanETH balance, as in the screenshot below. $ETH on Wanchain is called $wanETH.

Select which of your $ETH wallets you would like to receive the $ETH on Ethereum, enter the amount of $wanETH to convert, then click “Next”. Optionally, you can select “Send Everything” to move your entire $wanETH balance to Ethereum.

Confirm that all the details are correct then click “Send”. This will initiate the crosschain transaction.

Step 3: Wait for your crosschain transaction to complete. It is now processing.

While your crosschain transaction is processing, the status will change three times:

  • Lock Request Sent

  • Locked

  • Success

Note: The speed of the crosschain transaction is entirely dependent on the networks involved. Transactions involving slower networks like Bitcoin or Ethereum may take several minutes or more to complete.

While your crosschain transaction is processing, you can the status to view more detailed information.
