How to bridge ETH from Ethereum to OP Mainnet (Optimism)

  1. Enter the ETH amount in the calculator (from 0.08616 ETH) and open the exchange form.
  2. Paste your OP Mainnet (Optimism) address (0x…) to receive ETH Optimism.
  3. Send ETH over the Ethereum network to the address from the order, exactly in the amount shown.
  4. After the Ethereum confirmations, ETH Optimism is sent to your OP Mainnet (Optimism) address. The status is shown on the order page.

Exchange ETH to ETH Optimism

Before you bridge ETH to OP Mainnet (Optimism)

  • The receiving address must be on the OP Mainnet (Optimism) network (0x…).
  • Addresses on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon look the same (0x…): make sure the wallet shows OP Mainnet (Optimism) as the network.
  • Send ETH over Ethereum only — a transfer over another network will not reach the order.
  • The amount sent must be at least 0.08616 ETH.
  • Funds go through an AML check; high-risk transfers may be held until the check is complete.
