Bridges
Bridging allows users to transfer assets between the Celo network and other blockchain networks such as Ethereum, Polygon, and Solana. This section provides an overview of available bridging and swapping options.
As of block height 31,056,500 (March 26, 2025, 3:00 AM UTC), Celo is no longer a standalone Layer 1 blockchain—it is now an Ethereum Layer 2! Some documentation may be outdated as updates are in progress. If you encounter issues, please file a bug report.
For the most up-to-date information, refer to our Celo L2 documentation.
Be sure you understand and review the risks when bridging assets between chains.

Native Bridges
Native bridging refers to the process of transferring assets directly between Layer 2 (L2) networks without the need for intermediary networks or tokens. This method is designed to be more secure, efficient and cost-effective, leveraging the security and scalability of L2 solutions.
Cross-Chain Messaging
In addition to token bridges, there are also protocols that enable cross-chain messaging and interoperability:
