In order to transfer POLS (or any other tokens) from Ethereum over to Binance Smart Chain, you can use the Multichain.xyz Swap Tool.
Here is the step-by-step process on how to transfer your POLS from Ethereum to BSC. Disclaimer: in case you haven’t yet added Binance Smart Chain to MetaMask, you can see how on our Support Page.
- Download MetaMask from their official website and create an account. Make sure to write your seed phrase down on a piece of paper rather than storing it on your computer, phone or any other Internet-connected device. Keep it away from pets as well.
- Now that your MetaMask is all set, head over to multichain.xyz. The team over at Multichain has built a great swapping tool we will utilize to move your POLS from Ethereum over to BSC.
- In the top right corner, click on ‘Connect Wallet’ and connect your MetaMask to Multichain. Given we are moving tokens from Ethereum, make sure you have selected the Ethereum Mainnet. You should be seeing something like this:
4. If you aren’t automatically on the ‘Swap’ page (left hand side), click that and you will see the menu from the above image.
5. In the upper box (From), find POLS in the list of tokens and again ensure it is bridged FROM the Ethereum Mainnet and TO Binance Smart Chain. The Ethereum logo should be in the upper box and the BSC logo in the lower box.
6. Input the desired amount of POLS you wish to bridge and click on ‘Transfer’.
7. You will now be required to pay some fees for the transfer and confirm the transactions. Are you OK with the fees? Then go on and complete the swap.
Very well done! You should now have your POLS in your Binance Smart Chain Wallet.
