By default, your bridged funds are sent to the same address they were originally sent from.

Yes — find the 'To different address' button beneath the field that displays the amount of ETH or tokens you will receive on the target chain. You can then enter the address you want the funds to be bridged to. Only send funds to addresses on Ethereum or Status Network. You may lose funds otherwise, and they will be irretrievable (see this MetaMask Support article for an explanation). This means you cannot bridge to Bitcoin or Solana, for example, using the Status Network Bridge.

If you chose manual claiming, you need to return to the Status Network Bridge and make an additional transaction. It typically takes around 20 minutes (two Ethereum epochs) before you can claim a deposit; withdrawals from Status Network can take much longer, and vary in duration.

To claim, head to the 'Transactions' tab and locate the bridge transaction you want to claim; it should be marked as 'Ready to claim'. Click on it, and then on the 'Claim' button to initiate the transaction.

The Status Network Bridge is designed to transact between layer 1 (Ethereum) and layer 2 (Status Network), rather than for bridging to any other chains.

If you want to bridge to other EVM-compatible networks, consider using the MetaMask Portfolio bridge.

The tokens available to select on the Status Network Bridge are sourced from a curated list defined here and maintained by the Status Network team. This practice ensures users always bridge to the correct token—rather than variants

First, check whether your funds are ready to claim. To see claimable funds, go to the “Transactions” tab of the Status Network Bridge app.

If the transaction is still pending, just wait for it to be confirmed, and your funds will be available to claim or will be in your wallet (depending on the claiming method you chose). If the transaction is missing, or it has been confirmed and you still don&pos;t see your tokens, contact support by heading to our moderated Telegram group.

This depends on the direction of your bridge:

• Deposit (L1 -> L2): Approximately 20 minutes.
• Withdrawal (L2 -> L1): Between 8 and 32 hours. The L2 transaction must be finalized on Ethereum before you can claim your funds.

Yes, although it's not a method we recommend for beginners.

Note that this only speeds up your submission of the bridge transaction. It does not actually speed up the bridging process itself that you initiate with this transaction — you cannot speed up the 8-32 hour waiting time for a withdrawal.

Status Network is currently in test-net phase and deposits to the main-net instance of the network will come later
