🌗How to bridge from ETH to Moonriver

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to move your $SPDR tokens and Liquidity over to the Moonriver Network via Solarbeam

Open your metamask wallet and make sure you are on the Ethereum network.

Go to the Anyswap site and connect your wallet in the usual manner.

Select Bridge on the left-hand side of the menu (see picture below).

On the right-hand side drop-down menu in the “From” section select SPDR and Ethereum mainnet:

On the right-hand side drop-down menu in the “To” section select SPDR and Moonriver mainnet:

Click on the Balance shown on the top right-hand side, this will populate the “From” and “To” boxes with the total balance available.

Click swap

Click Confirm

Click Confirm in your MetaMask Wallet

Click on the blue link to get the transaction details

Once confirmed in your wallet, the swap takes up to 30 mins to confirm but is usually quicker.

To confirm your transfer:

Switch Networks in your MetaMask wallet to Moonriver, at this point you will have no MOVR tokens and your SPDR Token will not be showing in the main menu

At the bottom of the MetaMask wallet select Import tokens

In the following box under the “token contract address” copy and paste this address:

0xb2c22A9fb4FC02eb9D1d337655Ce079a04a526C7

The token Symbol and decimal should appear automatically, if not put SPDR into the token Symbol field and 18 into the decimal field

Click the “Add Custom Token” Blue box and confirm. The SPDR balance will appear in the next dialogue box, now click the “Import Tokens” blue box.

Once back at the main MetaMask page, the SPDR balance will appear.

Just as on the Ethereum network, you will need the native token of the Moonriver network (MOVR) to use as gas for transactions but currently there are no MOVR tokens in your wallet.

The next step is to bridge and then swap ETH for MOVR. This is achieved in a two step process, the first part of the process is bridging your ETH tokens to the Moonriver network (in the same way as you bridged your SPDR)

Go back to the Anyswap site and connect your wallet in the usual manner (on the Ethereum mainnet). Select Bridge on the left-hand side of the menu (see picture below) but this time select ETH in the Ethereum mainnet (top menu) and then ETH and the Moonriver mainnet (bottom menu). Insert the quantity of ETH you wish to bridge (note there is a Minimum quantity of 0.017 ETH) and press the Swap button.

Click the pop up confirm button, click the MetaMask confirm button. Once confirmed in your wallet, the swap takes up to 30 mins to confirm but is usually quicker.

After your transfer, you will not be able to see your ETH balance in your MOVR mainnet MetaMask wallet, we will describe later how this will be visible after the swap for MOVR :

To swap ETH for MOVR we have teamed up with Solarbeam and their “Swap for Gas service”

Click on this link to go to their service. If you are not already on the Moonriver network in your MetaMask wallet, you will get this message:

Allow the switch to the Moonriver network and then select the ETH and MOVR pair from the drop down menus along with the quantity of ETH you want to exchange into MOVR (see picture)

You will first have to select the “Approve & Swap” button once you have selected this a pop up menu will appear:

You will also be presented with 2 separate MetaMask sign notices, one after the other, press “sign” in both cases

After the transactions have been signed, you will also see a pop-up menu asking if you want to “add ETH to MetaMask”.

After selecting this you will see a pop up menu from MetaMask asking you to confirm this:

Select “Add token”

Congratulations! You now have MOVR and SPDR in your new Moonriver MetaMask wallet.
