How to Bridge to Neon EVM

Can I Bridge to Neon EVM?

Yes, you can bridge assets to Neon EVM using NeonPass, which supports transfers from Solana. NeonPass connects Solana wallets like Phantom to EVM wallets like MetaMask, enabling secure swaps between the two networks. 

Alternatively, for transfers from networks like Ethereum or Arbitrum, users can find a trusted third-party bridge that supports bridging to Neon from other EVM chains.

How to Bridge to Neon EVM

You can bridge assets to Neon EVM using deBridge, a cross-chain solution with over $6.3 billion in recorded transfers. deBridge supports Neon EVM, Solana, Ethereum, Base, and 15 other chains. It integrates aggregators like Jupiter and 1inch for efficient liquidity and low slippage.

Here are the steps to bridge to Neon using deBridge:

1. Connect Your Wallet: Open deBridge and connect your wallet, such as MetaMask or Phantom.‍
2. Select Networks and Token: Choose your source network (e.g., Ethereum or Solana) and set Neon EVM as the destination. Select the token you want to transfer.‍
3. Approve the Transfer: Enter the amount to bridge, approve the transaction in your wallet, and confirm.‍
4. Complete the Transfer: Finalize the process by following the prompts. Your assets will be available on Neon EVM in minutes.

What are the Fees?

Using deBridge to bridge assets to Neon EVM costs a flat 0.001 ETH per transfer. Additional gas fees depend on the network:

• Ethereum Mainnet: Gas fees range from $5 to $10.
• Layer 2 Networks (e.g. Arbitrum): Gas fees are typically under $1.
• Other Layer 1 Networks (e.g. Solana): Gas fees are usually less than $1.

Our testing found that bridging from Layer 2’s like Base is the most capital-efficient, with lower gas fees and slippage.

What is Neon EVM?

Neon EVM is an Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) implemented as a smart contract on the Solana blockchain. It allows developers to deploy Solidity and Vyper-based dApps on Solana with minimal modifications. 

This enables them to leverage Solana’s low fees, high throughput, and parallel transaction execution while using familiar Ethereum tools like MetaMask and Hardhat.

Bottom Line

Bridging to Neon EVM unlocks seamless access to Solana’s performance with Ethereum’s tools. 

Whether through NeonPass for Solana-native transfers or deBridge for multichain support, these solutions offer efficient and cost-effective options for connecting networks.
