What is zkSync?
An Ethereum layer-2 network that uses zero-knowledge rollup technology. Addresses: The same 0x format as Ethereum.
How bridging to zkSync works
A cross-chain bridge coordinates an event on a source network with an event on zkSync. Designs can lock and mint, burn and mint, or use liquidity on both networks. Each model has different custody, smart-contract, token and recovery assumptions.
Your options for bridging to zkSync
TorrentSwap does not execute a zkSync route. Consult official zkSync documentation to identify supported transfer methods, then verify the URL, networks, token contract, custody model and recovery process independently.
Ways to bridge to zkSync
zkSync Portal (official bridge) (https://portal.zksync.io/bridge): Deposit ETH and supported tokens from Ethereum to zkSync Era; withdrawals take longer than deposits. Third-party liquidity bridges (https://docs.zksync.io/zksync-era/environment/bridges): zkSync lists liquidity bridges that move funds from other L2s in minutes instead of routing through Ethereum.
Before you bridge to zkSync
zkSync Era uses the same 0x addresses as Ethereum, so a wallet like MetaMask works on both — but you must switch the network before sending, or the funds land on the wrong chain. Withdrawals from zkSync back to Ethereum through the official bridge are not instant: they wait for the batch to be proven and executed on Ethereum, which can take around a day.
Staying safe when you bridge
Verify the exact URL, source and destination networks, asset contract and destination address. Do not assume that a correctly formatted address supports the selected token, or that an unsupported transfer can be recovered. Never share a seed phrase, private key or wallet password.
Networks TorrentSwap does serve
Live routes currently cover 17 networks: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Tron, Dogecoin, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Zcash, NEAR and Cardano. If one of them works for you, the bridge pages for those networks have a live swap box.
