// Initialize LI.FI createConfig({ integrator: "your-app-name", }); // Get bridge quote const quote = await getQuote({ fromChain: 1, // Ethereum toChain: 42220, // Celo fromToken: [REDACTED_SECRET], // USDC on Ethereum toToken: [REDACTED_SECRET], // USDC on Celo fromAmount: "1000000000", // 1000 USDC (6 decimals) fromAddress: userAddress, }); // Execute the bridge const result = await executeRoute(quote, { updateRouteHook: (route) => { console.log("Route updated:", route); }, }); ``` ## Bridge Considerations ### Security - Native bridges (Superbridge) are the most secure - Third-party bridges rely on their own security models - Always verify contract addresses before bridging ### Timing - Native L1→L2 bridges: ~15-20 minutes - L2→L1 withdrawals: 7 days (challenge period) - Third-party bridges: varies (minutes to hours) ### Fees - Native bridges: gas fees only - Third-party bridges: gas + bridge fees ## Dependencies ```json { "dependencies": { "viem": "^2.0.0" } } ``` For LI.FI integration: ```json { "dependencies": { "@lifi/sdk": "^3.0.0" } } ``` ## Additional Resources - [bridge-contracts.md](references/bridge-contracts.md) - All bridge contract addresses - [bridged-tokens.md](references/bridged-tokens.md) - Complete list of bridged tokens
