How to bridge to Sonic
Example quote from 25 September 2026: sending 3,000 USDC (~$3,000) from Ethereum returns about 74,095 S on Sonic via Symbiosis, estimated ~36 sec — no wrapped tokens beyond the standard route, fully non-custodial. Symbiosis works as a liquidity meta-aggregator, comparing routes across multiple DEXes and bridge providers and picking the best one by price, fee, and speed automatically. This is one of the most popular flows on this corridor; the same widget supports any source chain and token combination. Here's how the flow works:
Pick the source. Set Ethereum as source and Sonic as destination — the USDC sits in an Ethereum wallet, and the goal is access to Sonic DeFi (Beethoven X, Equalizer).
Connect wallets. MetaMask on the Ethereum side, MetaMask on the Sonic side. Symbiosis reads the destination address automatically from the connected wallet — no manual paste required.
Enter the amount. 3,000 USDC (~$3,000) in this example. Keep enough ETH in the wallet to cover network gas.
Review the quote. Symbiosis displays the exact S amount on Sonic (about 74,095 S in this example), the flat Symbiosis fee in USD, and ETA (~36 sec). The quote is locked in before signing — 2% slippage tolerance protects against sudden price moves.
Sign and confirm. Sign the Ethereum transaction in MetaMask. S arrives in MetaMask once the route completes — track the transfer on Symbiosis Explorer.

About bridging to Sonic
Why this route. Sonic's DeFi runs on S: holders stake it with Beets to get stS, lend on Aave and Silo, and trade on Shadow.
What you receive. S, the native token of Sonic (chain ID 146), arrives ready to pay fees. The example spends USDC on Ethereum and requires one signature.
Watch out for. Sonic succeeded Fantom, but Fantom Opera (chain ID 250) is a separate network and FTM there is not S. FTM converts to S one way at 1:1 only through the Sonic upgrade portal, so make sure the wallet is set to Sonic.
Speed. Across all routes into Sonic, median delivery 18 seconds; 90th percentile 79 seconds, over the 90 days to 25 September 2026.
