ENTER DEPOSIT AMOUNT
In the [AMOUNT_TO_DEPOSIT] field, enter how many POGS V1 tokens you want to bridge.
• Minimum amount: 0.000001 POGS • Maximum amount: Your wallet balance • The input accepts up to 6 decimal places • Your current POGS balance is shown in the wallet section
The system will automatically check if you have sufficient balance.
3
ENTER SOLANA WALLET ADDRESS
Provide your Solana wallet address where you'll receive POGS V2 tokens.
• Must be a valid Solana address (32-44 characters) • Uses Base58 format (no 0, O, I, or l characters) • Common wallets: Phantom, Solflare, Sollet • The input will turn green when valid
CRITICAL WARNING
Double-check your Solana address! Transactions are IRREVERSIBLE. If you send to the wrong address, your tokens cannot be recovered.
4
APPROVE TOKEN SPENDING
Click the [APPROVE] button to allow the bridge contract to transfer your POGS tokens.
• This is a standard ERC-20 approval transaction • You'll see a MetaMask (or wallet) popup • Confirm the transaction and pay a small gas fee • Wait for the transaction to confirm on blockchain • The button will change to [DEPOSIT] once approved
Current allowance is displayed above the button for transparency.
5
DEPOSIT & BURN TOKENS
After approval, click [DEPOSIT] to initiate the bridge transfer.
What happens next: • Your POGS V1 tokens are sent to the bridge contract • The contract BURNS (permanently destroys) these tokens • A record is created for minting on Solana • You'll see: [BURNING_V1_TOKENS...]
TOKEN BURNING IS NORMAL!
Your POGS V1 tokens will be PERMANENTLY DESTROYED. This is the correct behavior! Burning prevents the same tokens from existing on both chains. You'll receive equivalent V2 POGS on Solana.
6
CHECK TRANSACTION STATUS
Click the LEDGER tab to view your transaction history.
Each transaction shows: • Amount bridged • Timestamp • Block number • Destination Solana wallet • Payout status: [PENDING] or [COMPLETED]
IMPORTANT NOTES
Token burning is INTENTIONAL - it prevents double-spending across chains
Always verify your Solana address - transactions cannot be reversed
Keep some ETH/ TFUEL in your wallet for gas fees
The approval step only needs to be done once per deposit amount
Check the LEDGER tab to monitor your transaction status
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Why are my tokens being burned?
A: Burning is essential for cross-chain bridges. It ensures tokens can't exist on both chains simultaneously, preventing inflation and double-spending. You receive equivalent tokens on Solana.
Q: How long does the process take?
A: Typically 2-5 minutes total. Approval and deposit may take 1-2 minutes each to complete. Solana minting occurs on February 1st, 2026.
Q: What if I sent to the wrong Solana address?
A: Unfortunately, blockchain transactions are irreversible. Always double-check your destination address. If tokens are sent to an incorrect address, contact us immediately.
Q: Why do I need to approve before depositing?
A: This is a security feature of ERC-20 tokens. You're giving the bridge contract permission to transfer a specific amount of your tokens. This protects your remaining balance.
Q: Can I bridge back from Solana to Base / Ethereum / Theta?
A: This is a one-way bridge from Base/Ethereum/Theta to Solana. Tokens can only move from V1 to V2.
