When you bridge assets, Messina does not "convert" or "swap“ it. The asset you want to bridge is locked in a smart contract on the source chain and the designated native asset on the destination chain is unlocked.
Unfortunately, you cannot send any tokens without connecting a wallet on the source chain. In most cases, you will need to connect wallets on both sides. For certain tokens, there is a Relay function which can send the tokens to a recipient wallet address without connecting the destination wallet.
Depending on the token sent, a bridge fee may be applicable for each transaction (refer here for more details). Network/gas fees include:
• The source chain gas fee.
• The destination chain gas fee.
These are fees the chain charges to process transactions and may vary depending on the chain.
Bridging speed depends on the source and destination chain, the number of active transactions made at that time, etc. This may take up to a few minutes, so some time might be needed to allow the transaction to go through. Once the transaction is verified and confirmed, the bridged assets will be available in the recipient’s wallet.
If you don’t receive your tokens after bridging, it could be due to one of the scenarios below:
- Bridging did not go through so the tokens weren’t deducted. Please check your wallet transaction page to view your transaction history. If your transaction cannot be found, it was likely not initiated at all.
- Bridging went through only on the source chain. Visit the Bridge page and click on “Resume Bridging” to resume the affected transaction. Click here to find out how to obtain your transaction hash.
- Bridging was successful but the asset may need to be added to your wallet for it to be visible.
If you believe your funds are missing, please create a support ticket on Discord.
If you still have your session page open, copy the transaction hash on screen. Then, click here to resume your bridging. If your session has closed and you need help retrieving your transaction hash, learn how to do so here. For more assistance, do not hesitate to create a support ticket on Discord.
For security, transactions on Polygon require 512 block confirmations, which may lead to processing time of up to 1 - 3 hours. Under certain network conditions, this duration may be extended. If you have waited over 3 hours and still have not received your funds or are unable to resume bridging, please create a support ticket on Discord.
