How do I move VFY from zkVerify to Base?​

Follow these steps end-to-end. You will first teleport VFY from the zkVerify relay chain to VFlow (zkVerify’s EVM parachain), then bridge from VFlow to Base using Stargate.

  1. Connect a wallet to VFlow
  • Read and follow: Connect to VFlow
  • Ensure your wallet (e.g., SubWallet/Talisman + EVM account) is ready to interact with Polkadot-JS and VFlow.
  • If the network isn’t listed, manually add the mainnet RPC endpoint from the connection guide linked above.

Select EVM address in Polkadot-JS

Prerequisite: two addresses connected in Polkadot-JS UI

  • A Substrate address on zkVerify Mainnet (format starting with ZK*****).
  • An EVM address for VFlow. Some wallets offer unified-account functionality, which may show them as a single account, but they are distinct under the hood.
  1. Teleport VFY from zkVerify to VFlow (Polkadot-JS UI)

  • Reference (full walkthrough): Teleport Token across zkVerify Parachains → From zkVerify to VFlow via PolkadotJS-UI

  • Quick method via Decode (recommended)

    • In Polkadot-JS, go to Developer → Extrinsics → Decode

    • Paste the following hex:

      0x8c0105000100040500010300000000000000000000000000000000000000000005040000000000000000

    • Switch to Submission

    • Change only these parameters:

      • Beneficiary → V5 → X1 → AccountKey20 → key: set your EVM address on VFlow (20 bytes)
      • Assets → V5 → 0 → fun → Fungible: set the VFY amount (18 decimals; e.g., 1 VFY = 1000000000000000000)

    • Submit and sign the transaction

  1. Bridge from VFlow to Base via Stargate
  • After the teleport finalizes and your VFY appears on VFlow, use Stargate to bridge to Base:
    • Open: Stargate prefilled link
    • Ensure the source chain is zkVerify (VFlow EVM) and destination is Base
    • Select the amount of VFY and proceed with the bridge

Notes and tips

  • Amounts on the teleport step use 18 decimals; ensure you have enough balance to cover XCM execution fees. Receiver-side XCM fees are deducted from the teleported amount.
  • If you need deeper context on XCM teleport parameters, see the official explanation in the same guide linked above.
  • For wallet setup and troubleshooting, use the wallet connection guide first, then retry the teleport.
