🪄 How to Bridge Assets to the Story Layer 1 Chain
Whether you're entering the Story ecosystem for the first time or need $IP to interact with dApps like PiperX, this guide walks you through how to bridge ETH or USDC from other chains to Story.
✅ Option 1: Use Debridge
Best for bridging + swapping into $IP in one step
Debridge supports direct bridging from Ethereum and other chains into Story, and even lets you receive $IP directly (Story’s gas/token utility).
🔧 Steps:
Go to app.debridge.finance
Connect your Web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask)
Choose:
From Chain: Ethereum
Asset: ETH or USDC
To Chain: Story
Target Asset on Story:
✅ Option 1: WETH or USDC.e
✅ Option 2 (Recommended): Directly into $IP
Give permission and Confirm the transaction and wait for bridging to complete.
If you received $IP, you’re ready to interact with any Story-based dApp!
✅ Option 2: Use Stargate
Best for simple bridging (swap to $IP separately)
Stargate supports bridging to Story, but requires a follow-up swap to get $IP.
🔧 Steps:
Visit stargate.finance/bridge
Connect your wallet
Bridge assets:
From Chain: Ethereum
Asset: ETH or USDC
To Chain: Story
Target Asset: WETH or USDC.e
💡 Enable “Apply Gas on Destination” to receive $IP for gas fees!
Once assets arrive on Story, go to PiperX
Swap your WETH or USDC.e → $IP
Now you're ready to use any dApp on Story Chain.
