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.
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 (Storyβs gas/token utility).
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:
β Option 1: WETH or USDC.e
β Option 2 (Recommended): Directly into $IP
Give permission and Confirm the transaction and wait for bridging to complete.
If you received $IP, youβre ready to interact with any Story-based dApp!
Best for simple bridging (swap to $IP separately)
Stargate supports bridging to Story, but requires a follow-up swap to get $IP.
Connect your wallet
Bridge assets:
From Chain: Ethereum
Asset: ETH or USDC
To Chain: Story
Target Asset: WETH or USDC.e
π‘ Enable βApply Gas on Destinationβ to receive $IP for gas fees!
Swap your WETH or USDC.e β $IP
Now you're ready to use any dApp on Story Chain.
