Bridging ETH Assets to Avalanche (AVAX) Becomes Cheaper

Currently, transferring your Ethereum assets using the Avalanche Bridge (AB), then swapping it on Pangolin DEX, and transferring the new assets back to Ethereum is half the tx cost of swapping those same assets on Ethereum.

Pangolin DEX is the premier DEX on Avalanche.  It was created by Avalabsofficial and now it is community run. It has more than 300M+ in TVL with fast transactions and low fees and it is powered by the PNG token.

You can Scale Your DeFi Trading with Pangolin.  It is a A community-driven decentralized exchange for Avalanche and Ethereum assets with fast settlement, low transaction fees, and a democratic distributionpowered by Avalanche. Pangolin brings you the best trading opportunities to find and maximize your yield.

Community response: Yes! But why is this? How can the bridge consistently keep gas fees on the ETH side around 10$ but metamask interactions with uniswap, etc. are avging $40-60?? I would really like to know.

Logic may seem fine but numbers are twisted a little. Bridging to Avalanche is around 3-5$ while Bridging to Ethereum back is around 30-40$. Not sure if it’s worth to go n back for 5-10 bucks.

For those who are new, The Avalanche Bridge (AB) can be used to transfer ERC20 tokens from Ethereum to Avalanche’s C-Chain and vice versa.

The Bridge can be split into two main parts: the SGX application and a set of third-party indexers and verifiers called “Wardens.”

The Wardens do the job of indexing the Avalanche and Ethereum blockchains and submitting eligible transactions to the enclave for processing.

The SGX application requires 3 of 4 Wardens to submit the same transaction before generating the signed transaction to process the Bridge transfer on the other network.

Avalanche Bridge (AB) can scale horizontally with other EVM-compatible chains. Just with Ethereum, nearly $1.5B of crypto assets have bridged.  Avalanche Rush will be the next major catalyst in bringing users to try out Avalanche DeFi.

The Avalanche Bridge (AB) connects directly to your MetaMask wallet for fast, cheap, and secure transfers of Ethereum assets to and from Avalanche.

The Avalanche Bridge is trustless in the sense that no one party is able to access any of the funds held as collateral or mint wrapped assets.

Select the assets and enter the amount you would like to bridge across. Click Transfer and sign the transaction prompt that pops up on Metamask. Wait for the transaction to complete on both Ethereum and Avalanche networks. It takes approximately 10 minutes on the Ethereum side and 30 seconds on the Avalanche side
