Bridging Assets Using A Privy Wallet

This guide is for users of centralised exchanges (CEX) like Coinbase or Binance who want to start using Prodigy.Fi on Base.

If you’re new to decentralised wallets, Privy simplifies the process by embedding a wallet you can access via an email login (eg; Gmail or Outlook), without needing to manage private keys or seed phrases.

This guide will walk you through clear, step-by-step instructions for transferring crypto assets from your CEX account to your Privy wallet on the Base network. Let’s dive in!

  • A Privy embedded wallet: Created within a Privy-integrated application or through Privy Home.
