How to bridge test CAPS on Ternoa & Ethereum

Before using the Token Bridge on Alphanet, you will need to first get your Ternoa account imported in Polkadot{.js}. Once it's added to the Polkadot extension, you can claim Ternoa test CAPS and ETH test tokens.

Get your Ternoa account on Polkadot{.js}

To interact with your Ternoa Wallet from your browser to any dApp, you need to get your Ternoa account imported into the Polkadot{.js} browser extension.

Download the Polkadot{.js} extension.

The Polkadot{.js} extension is not compatible with mobile browsers. To connect your wallet to the extension, you will need to use a desktop browser.

Once installed, you can either import an account from pre-existing seed from your Ternoa Wallet or connect your Substrate address from a hardware wallet.

If you have a Ternoa Wallet account, you can import your wallet directly on the extension. It will be necessary to have your wallet connected to validate transactions.
