Required Wallets

As these two blockchains are built with different smart contract technology, you cannot use one wallet to store the assets on both networks. You will need to acquire both a Solana and EVM-compatible wallet before beginning the bridging process. Allbridge supports the following Solana wallets - Phantom, Solflare Extension & Exodus, and it accepts MetaMask for the Fantom wallet.

Conclusion

To recap, bridging assets from Solana to Fantom can be effectively accomplished using Allbridge. This platform is a standout in its support for directly bridging these two networks, which other popular protocols, such as Synapse, do not offer due to Solana's incompatibility with EVM-based blockchains. Users can safely transfer ABR, FTM, SOL or USDC from their Solana wallet to MetaMask.
