What is zkSync?
A zero-knowledge Ethereum layer-2 focused on low-cost, secure scaling. As it has grown, more users need to move assets to and from zkSync across other blockchains — which is what "bridging" does.
How bridging to zkSync works
A cross-chain bridge locks or swaps your asset on the source chain and delivers the equivalent asset on zkSync. Non-custodial routes never hold your funds — the asset moves directly between chains — while custodial services take temporary control. Always confirm which model you're using.
Your options for bridging to zkSync
The most direct route is usually the official zkSync bridge (for assets on its connected networks) or a reputable cross-chain aggregator that compares routes. Compare the amount received, fees, and estimated time before you confirm, and prefer audited, well-known providers.
Staying safe when you bridge
Verify the exact URL, double-check the destination address (a wrong address means lost funds), start with a small test amount, and never bridge from an exchange account you don't control. Bridges that are non-custodial and require no KYC minimise both counterparty risk and data exposure.
What TorrentSwap can do for you
TorrentSwap is a no-KYC, non-custodial cross-chain swap for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and Polkadot. While it doesn't bridge zkSync directly today, it can privately handle the BTC / ETH / SOL / ARB / DOT legs of your journey — with more chains being added.
