This guide will help you move your FTM & AVAX (through Routing) and MATIC (through Bridging) tokens to Harmony using Multichain and LUNA through the Terra Bridge.

DISCLAIMER: This guide is initially authored by Dreamer and Flu (DeFi Kingdoms Team members). I added more information and elaborated on some steps so you will be helped better as you bridge your assets to Harmony.DeFi Kingdoms is not responsible for any loss of funds due to user error or technical issues, so please use this guidance at your own risk. We also have some helpful community members who will be more than glad to help you through this process.💡 LIFE-SAVING TIP: If possible, do micro transactions first!

In order to route or bridge tokens to Harmony, you first need to own the token that you would like to send over to Harmony. These four tokens can be obtained from any of your preferred exchanges such as Crypto.com, Kucoin, Coinbase, Binance, etc.

Select the token you want to bridge using the menu below.

I am looking to bridge: AVAX | FTM | MATIC | LUNA

Bridging AVAX and FTM to Harmony

STEP 1: Go to the Multichain Site

You can access the Multichain site by clicking the World Map > Docks and then interact with Dockmaster.

Dockmaster

Alternatively, you can go to this link: https://app.multichain.org/#/router

STEP 2: Go to Multichain Router

Router feature will be used to bridge your AVAX and FTM.

STEP 3: Route the Tokens to Harmony

First, check if the appropriate network is selected. The target network should be Harmony mainnet.

Since you are bridging, the assets will be sent to the same address by default. However, the routing feature has a Send To function if you intend to send the tokens to a different address.

Make sure to leave enough tokens for the Bridging Fees.
