In April, we announced the launch of Secret Tunnel, an Axelar-powered EVM bridge that would be taking the place of Secret’s original EVM bridge. We also mentioned that users should migrate any assets locked into the old bridge over to the new bridge. We wanted to remind users about this process again, as we’re aiming to shut down the old EVM bridge at the end of September 2023.
To migrate assets, users need to bridge them back to their native chains using the old bridge interface. Then, users can go to the new bridge interface and bridge the assets back to Secret. At the end of September 2023, the old bridge interface will be shut down, and any assets that are still locked into it at that time will be manually migrated over to the new bridge. A process will then be established that will allow users to claim these tokens. However, we highly recommend users migrate their tokens now, before the old bridge is shut down. This will ensure that users maintain uninterrupted custody of their assets, and a smooth transition process.
If you have any questions about this migration process or need assistance, please reach out to our support team.
