Transfer NFTs cross-chain

Bridge NFTs cross-chain

You can use the Pixelport App to bridge your NFTs cross-chain. This guide will show you how to move an NFT between chains.

To acquire testnet tokens for the supported chains, visit this page for more details.

1. Launch the Pixelport App and connect your wallet. Ensure you’ve funded your wallet with native tokens for the networks you’ll interact with since the on-chain transaction requires some funds.

2. Click on the Bridge Hub.

3. Choose source and destination blockchains and click “Next.”

4. Select the collection and the available NFT to be teleported and click “Next.”

5. Review and confirm the transaction fees.

6. Finally, click on the “Bridge” button.

7. Confirm the transaction with your wallet.

Tracking cross-chain NFTs

Pixelport presents a unified dashboard to track your teleported NFTs across different chains. To check the status of your cross-chain NFTs, navigate to Bridge>NFT Tracker. You should be able to view the status of the NFT transfer as shown in the diagram below:

NFT Tracker

The NFT tracker displays different information as explained below:

• Name: Name of the cross-chain NFT

• Collection: Name of the collection where the cross-chain NFT is minted.

• Source: Origin network.

• Destination: Target network.

• Status: Status of the transfer. There are different statuses of messages you should see:

  • Completed—if the transfer is complete.

  • Pending— if the transfer is currently being implemented between chains and has not reached the destination network.

  • Failed—if the transaction encountered an error and was not completed.

• Finalized: Timestamp when the transfer was completed.

You can also use the Timechain Explorer to track the status of the message call across different chains. For more details, see “Track GMP Messages.”
