How to bridge from Polygon to Cronos

Example bridge: 1,000 POL (~$87) from Polygon to 87.12 USDC on Cronos via Symbiosis — a non-custodial liquidity meta-aggregator. The figures below are an illustrative live Symbiosis quote; rates vary. Here's the flow:

  1. Connect your Polygon wallet. MetaMask, Rabby, Trust Wallet (any EVM wallet); keep a small balance for gas.

  2. Connect your Cronos wallet. any EVM wallet (MetaMask, Defi Wallet) — Symbiosis resolves your destination address automatically once connected.

  3. Enter the amount. Source Polygon/POL, destination Cronos/USDC. In this example, 1,000 POL ≈ 87.12 USDC.

  4. Review the quote. Symbiosis shows the route, expected receipt, fee (~$0.25), ETA (~12 sec), and price impact before you sign. 2% slippage tolerance is applied.

  5. Sign and confirm. Approve the transaction in your wallet; the destination asset lands in your Cronos wallet. Non-custodial throughout — your keys, your funds.

About bridging Polygon to Cronos via Symbiosis

Symbiosis routes liquidity from Polygon to Cronos via Octopools AMM — POL, USDC, or USDT.POS swapped to CRO ecosystem tokens.

  • Direct EVM hop: Polygon (EVM) → Cronos (EVM) bridge in a single transaction. Reverse Cronos → Polygon supported on the same UI.

  • Non-custodial: assets stay in your wallet until the bridge executes; no KYC, no signups

  • Native destination assets: receive the destination chain's native asset directly to your wallet — no wrapped placeholder

  • Octopools AMM: Symbiosis scans liquidity across DEXes and bridge providers for the best price-fee-speed combination

Other Polygon routes: Polygon to Base, Polygon to BNB Chain, Polygon to Tron — or see the Polygon Bridge.

Real on-chain data from Symbiosis routing layer, period 2026-02-20 → 2026-05-21. Statistics refreshed quarterly. Transactions verified via Polygonscan and Cronoscan (Cronos EVM).

Two-layer staking security

Cross-chain transactions routed via Octopools AMM (scans liquidity across DEXs and chains for minimal slippage), then signed by an MPC group via Threshold Signature Scheme (TSS) — no single party can move user funds. Two security layers: Symbiosis PoS Staking (SIS-collateralised relayer nodes) + Symbiotic restaking (additional slash-able collateral). 2/3 stake quorum for epoch changes.

07

Can I bridge POL or MATIC? What's the difference?

Both. POL is the current ticker following the 2024 MATIC→POL rebrand — the underlying token is the same Polygon native asset. Symbiosis supports POL (alias MATIC) as a source token, plus the major Polygon ERC-20s: USDC.e, USDT.POS, WETH, WBTC, AAVE, LINK, UNI, DAI, and others. The swap UI auto-detects whichever symbol your wallet shows.
