Molten Bridge

The Molten Bridge is the standard optimistic bridge used on Arbitrum, allowing users to deposit and withdraw assets to and from the Molten Network. Here’s how to use the bridge effectively.

​
Bridge Overview

  • Deposits: Bridging assets into the Molten Network takes between 15-30 minutes.
  • Withdrawals: Bridging assets out of the Molten Network takes 7-8 days.
  • Security: The bridge only supports the native bridge, which has the highest security assumptions for users. There is no fast bridge available.

Bridging MOLTEN (Gas)

To use the Molten Network, you need MOLTEN tokens for gas. You can bridge MOLTEN from Arbitrum to Molten Network. Even if you want to bridge assets like USDC or WETH, you still need MOLTEN to pay for gas on Arbitrum.

​

  1. Visit the Molten Bridge.
  2. Connect your wallet and select the asset you want to bridge (e.g., MOLTEN, USDC, WETH).
  3. Enter the amount you want to bridge and initiate the deposit.
  4. Wait for the transaction to complete (15-30 minutes).

​
Withdrawing Assets from Molten Network

  1. Visit the Molten Bridge.
  2. Connect your wallet and select the asset you want to withdraw.
  3. Enter the amount you want to withdraw and initiate the withdrawal.
  4. Wait for the transaction to complete (7-8 days).

​
Finalizing Withdrawals

To finalize a withdrawal after the 7-8 day waiting period, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Molten Bridge.
  2. Click on the “Transactions” tab at the top.
  3. Find your withdrawal transaction and click the three-dot button next to it.
  4. Select “Finalize Withdrawal” to complete the process.

Important Notes

  • You need MOLTEN tokens for gas both when bridging into and out of the Molten Network.
  • Ensure you have enough MOLTEN tokens to cover gas fees for all transactions.
