Bridge from Robinhood Chain to Metis
Sending funds from Robinhood Chain to Metis Andromeda, an Ethereum Layer 2 that pays gas in METIS works the same way as bridging in: one deposit on Robinhood Chain, delivery on Metis within minutes, no custodian in between.
What you need
- An EVM wallet with funds on Robinhood Chain: METIS, WETH.
- ETH on Robinhood Chain for the deposit transaction (a few cents on Layer 2s, more on Ethereum mainnet).
- Nothing on Metis in advance: the transfer delivers to the same address on Metis.
How to bridge from Robinhood Chain to Metis
- Open the bridge with Robinhood Chain selected. Open RobinSwap in bridge mode with Robinhood Chain as the source and Metis as the destination. Connect MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet or another EVM wallet that holds your funds on Robinhood Chain.
- Choose the asset and amount. Pick the token you hold on Robinhood Chain (METIS, WETH) and enter the amount. The quote shows what arrives on Metis, the network cost and the RobinSwap fee before you sign anything.
- Confirm on Robinhood Chain. Your wallet switches to Robinhood Chain if needed and asks you to sign one deposit transaction (plus a token approval for ERC-20s). Gas for this step is paid in ETH on Robinhood Chain.
- Receive on Metis. Once the deposit confirms, the transfer fills on Metis, usually within seconds to a few minutes. The app shows the status live; check the receiving address on the Metis explorer if you want to double-check.

Frequently asked questions
How long does bridging from Robinhood Chain to Metis take?
Typically seconds to a few minutes after your deposit transaction confirms on Robinhood Chain. Ethereum mainnet deposits wait for block confirmations, so transfers from Ethereum take longer than from Layer 2 networks.
What does it cost to bridge from Robinhood Chain to Metis?
Three things: gas on Robinhood Chain (paid in ETH), the network cost of delivering funds on Metis, and one flat 0.5% RobinSwap fee. Every amount is listed in the quote before you confirm; there is no hidden spread.
Which assets can I bridge from Robinhood Chain to Metis?
Native gas tokens and major stablecoins are the common route: METIS, WETH. Other tokens are quoted when a route exists; if a token cannot be bridged directly, bridge ETH or USDC and swap on Metis.
Do I need METIS on Metis before I bridge?
You need a little ETH on Robinhood Chain for the deposit transaction itself. On Metis gas is paid in METIS; if you receive another asset, make sure you will have METIS there for later transactions.
Is the Robinhood Chain to Metis bridge safe?
RobinSwap is non-custodial: you sign a single deposit in your own wallet, the transfer is filled by a relayer network and status is verifiable on both explorers (robinhoodchain.blockscout.com and explorer.metis.io). Never share seed phrases; RobinSwap never asks you to sign a message to bridge or swap.
