# 2. Bridge Assets for Gas and Transactions

Depending on your current blockchain experience, there are two main pathways (Ethereum or Solana) for bridging assets to Eclipse for gas.

With our community evenly split between Ethereum and Solana, we are committed to delivering a smooth onboarding experience regardless of where you bridge from.

## **Existing Ethereum Users**:

You can bridge ETH from Ethereum to use as gas on Eclipse:

### Using the Eclipse Bridge

You can use the [Eclipse Canonical Bridge](https://app.eclipse.xyz/bridge?target=deposit) to transfer ETH between Ethereum Mainnet and Eclipse Mainnet.

#### Connect Your Wallets

Before using the bridge, you need to **connect both your Ethereum wallet and Eclipse wallet**.

> **Important:** Make sure the connected Ethereum and Eclipse wallet addresses are the intended **source and destination addresses** for your transfer. Double-check both addresses before proceeding with the transaction.

#### Deposit ETH from Ethereum to Eclipse

1. Set **From** to **Ethereum Mainnet**.
2. Set **To** to **Eclipse Mainnet**.
3. Enter the amount of **ETH** you want to transfer.
4. Click **Deposit**.
5. Confirm and sign the transaction through your wallet to submit the transaction.

The transfer from Ethereum to Eclipse typically takes approximately **5 minutes** to complete.

#### Withdraw ETH from Eclipse to Ethereum

1. Set **From** to **Eclipse Mainnet**.
2. Set **To** to **Ethereum Mainnet**.
3. Enter the amount of **ETH** you want to transfer.
4. Click **Withdraw**.
5. Confirm and sign the transaction through your wallet to submit the transaction.
6. **Wait 7 days** for the withdrawal to complete the review window.
7. Click **Claim** to claim your funds on **Ethereum Mainnet**.

Withdrawals from Eclipse to Ethereum **will take 7 days until your funds are ready to claim on Ethereum Mainnet.**

## **Existing Solana Users**:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.eclipse.xyz/readme/bridge-assets-for-gas-and-transactions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
