Tutorial: How to transfer your $DARC using Solana’s Wormhole Bridge
Note: For Binance Smart Chain => Solana transfers, Wormhole seems only to work with Metamask.
What you need before using this tutorial:
- A Phantom wallet => https://help.phantom.app/hc/en-us/articles/4406388623251-How-to-create-a-new-wallet
- A MetaMask wallet set up on the Binance Smart Chain =>
https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/connecting-metamask-to-binance-smart-chain - Hold DARC in your MetaMask wallet. If you have DARC on another wallet (like Binance wallet) and want to send it on Metamask, here’s how to do it => https://crypto-explained.com/services/how-to-add-binance-smart-chain-to-metamask/
Step 1
Go to https://wormholebridge.com/#/ to access the bridge.
Step 2
Select the source and target blockchain. In this example, we want to send DARC from Binance Smart Chain to Solana. Once done, you can click on “Connect” in order to connect your wallet.
Step 3
Click on “Select a token.”
Type “DARC” in the search bar or paste the contract address below in order to add DARC in the cryptocurrency you can choose from:
Here is DARC’s contract address:
- CpFE715P5DnDoJj9FbCRcuyHHeTXNdRnvzNkHvq1o23U
Step 4
Make sure you have enough BNB and SOL to pay for the transaction fees. Both will be needed. Then enter the DARC amount you wish to transfer. Once entered, click on “Next.”
Step 5
Connect your Phantom wallet by clicking on “select wallet” and choose the receiving wallet option.
Step 6
If it’s your first time using the Wormhole, you might need to click on “create associated token account” in order to receive DARC in your Solana wallet.
Step 7
Click on “Approve“ in the pop-up window that appears in your wallet.
Step 8
Click on “Next” once the token account creation has been completed.
Step 9
Click on “Approve X Tokens” to confirm the transaction of your token.
Note: You can also click on “Approve Unlimited token” If you wish to pre-approve future transactions of DARC through the bridge.
Step 10
Click on “Confirm” to approve the transaction in your Metamask wallet. This transaction will pay the fee in BNB for operating the transaction.
Step 11
Click on “Transfer” to initiate the transaction.
Step 12
Click on “Confirm.”
Step 13
Click once more on “confirm” in the MetaMask pop-up to accept the gas fees payment transaction.
Step 14
Click on “Redeem” to claim your DARC on Solana.
Step 15
Click on “Approve” in the Phantom wallet pop-up to accept paying the Solana transaction fees.
*Note: You might have to approve that pop-up several times in the redeem process as there most likely will be several transactions.
Final step
Your DARC is transferred!
Notes:
- If you have issues during the transfer, you can check the state of the Solana Blockchain here => https://explorer.solana.com/
- You might have to do Step 14 more than once if the Solana blockchain is congested and your transfer is not being processed till completion.
Issues ?
If you have any issues with the bridge, keep your transaction hash (you can find that information on the Solana explorer once you have finalized step 14).
If there are any issues during the transfer, you will be able to redeem your token using this page => https://wormholebridge.com/#/redeem
