How do I bridge my IXS token to Polygon?

The IXS token is an ERC-20 token, which means it works on the Ethereum network. To provide a more cost-effective alternative when conducting transactions using IXS, we've enabled our users to bridge their IXS to the Polygon network.

Once done, you will get the corresponding wrapped token WIXS in exchange for your IXS (1 IXS = 1 WIXS). This is especially relevant as some of IX Swap’s staking programs require WIXS tokens to participate.
