Fonlarınızı Starknet Cüzdanınıza Köprüleyin ve Aktarın: Nihai Kılavuz

Introduction

With the growing popularity of the Starknet ecosystem, users are increasingly looking for efficient ways to onramp funds to their Braavos wallet.

However, in the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrency, onboarding fiat currency to digital assets can be a complex and cumbersome process. This onramping often involves multiple steps, platforms, and fees, creating friction for users trying to navigate the landscape. With the growing popularity of the Starknet ecosystem, users are increasingly seeking efficient ways to onramp funds to their Braavos wallet and bridge assets from various networks.

In this article, we will explore several methods to deposit, onramp, and offramp funds using the Starknet bridge and other services, emphasizing the use of your Braavos wallet. This comprehensive guide is designed to help you seamlessly navigate the Starknet ecosystem and make informed decisions.

Accessing these services from within the Braavos wallet is recommended. On the main wallet screen, if you click on ‘Deposit,’ you will get a list of possibilities that redirect you to the relevant service. This will ensure that you won’t be exposed to phishing and other mistakes by typing the wrong URL.

StarkGate – The Canonical Starknet Bridge

StarkGate is the official Starknet bridge, developed by the Starkware team, designed to facilitate the transfer of assets between Ethereum and Starknet. It supports all official ERC20 tokens on Starknet, including ETH, DAI, USDC, USDT, and WBTC.

Using the StarkGate bridge, users can easily deposit their tokens into their Braavos account. All they need to do is connect their Braavos and Ethereum wallets, and follow a few simple steps.

Note that unlike depositing to Starknet which currently requires a single Ethereum transaction, withdrawing from Starknet back to Ethereum requires two transactions, first on Starknet to initiate the withdrawal process and a second transaction a few hours later on Ethereum (once the Starknet transaction has been ‘Accepted on L1’) to actually withdraw the funds from the bridge.

Orbiter – Bridging Multiple Blockchain Networks

Orbiter is a versatile bridge that allows users to onramp funds from various other blockchains, such as Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, zkSync, BNB Chain, and Ethereum.

By providing a seamless connection between these networks and Starknet, Orbiter enables users to transfer their assets to their Braavos wallet without the need to convert them to ERC20 tokens first. This flexibility simplifies the deposit process and broadens the range of assets that can be used within the Starknet ecosystem.
