# How to Bridge Parallel Tokens?

Parallel Protocol enables seamless multichain interaction thanks to its custom bridge powered by **LayerZero**.

This guide walks you through the process to bridge **PRL**, **paUSD**, or **PAR** between supported chains, whether you’re moving assets for governance, liquidity provision, or utility.

🧭 **Why Bridge?**
------------------

*   🌐 Move your **PRL, paUSD, or PAR** to the chain where you need them
    
*   ⚙ Interact with different DeFi ecosystems using the same Parallel assets
    
*   🔄 Built on LayerZero’s **OFT standard**: secure, decentralized, and no wrapping
    
*   ✅ Always 1:1,  no slippage or fees on the protocol level
    

🚀 **Step-by-Step Guide**
-------------------------

### **1\. Go to the Bridge Page**

Open the official [Parallel dApp](https://app.parallel.best/bridge) and click on **“Bridge”** in the nav bar.

### **2\. Connect Your Wallet**

Connect the wallet holding the asset you want to bridge (PRL, PAR, or paUSD).

### **3\. Choose Origin & Destination Chains**

Select the origin chain and the destination chain.

All Parallel bridgeable assets support:

*   Ethereum
    
*   Polygon
    
*   Fantom
    
*   Base
    
*   Arbitrum One
    
*   Optimism
    
*   Sonic

### **4\. Choose the Token to Bridge**

Use the dropdown to select either:

*   **PRL** (Governance token)
    
*   **paUSD** (USD stablecoin)
    
*   **PAR** (EUR stablecoin)
    

Then enter the amount you want to bridge.

### **5\. (Optional) Set a Recipient Address**

By default, the tokens will be bridged to your own wallet. 

You can specify another EVM address if you want to send them elsewhere.

### **6\. Approve & Confirm the Bridge**

*   If it’s your first time bridging a given token, approve it
    
*   Confirm the transaction in your wallet
    
*   Wait a up to 20 min depending on the route for LayerZero to finalize. You can also track bridge status in layerzero scan (automatically appears in pop up).
    

✅ **Done!**
-----------

Your tokens will appear on the destination chain, 1:1.

From there, you can use them for:

*   Stake PRL via sPRL1 (only on Ethereum, Polygon PoS, Base & Sonic for now) or sPRL2 (only on Ethereum for now)
    
*   Vote on Snapshot (only if PRL are staked)
    
*   Provide liquidity in PRL, PAR & paUSD pools
    
*   Or simply hold PRL, PAR & paUSD
    

⚠ **Additional Notes**
----------------------

*   The bridge uses LayerZero’s decentralized infrastructure
    
*   No token wrapping or synthetic minting, true interoperability
    
*   Controlled and configurable by the Parallel DAO
