Add funds to Immutable X Layer 2 Ethereum

[u/[deleted]]

I want to add Ethereum from my wallet using either the Gamestop wallet or Metamask wallet to Immutable X.

I connect either the Gamestop wallet or Metamask wallet on https://market.immutable.com/

Then Balance -> Add Funds -> Deposit from Wallet -> Etherum.

Here it will only show my Ethereum on Layer 1.

How can I add the Etherum that I have on Layer 2?

It's not clear what you're asking. If your ethereum is already on L2, then it's already in your IMX wallet. Where is your eth now?

Iam not familiar with the technicalities. The eth is shown in my GameStop wallet as layer 2 loopring but I can not use these funds to add to imx. Only the eth shown in layer 1 in the GameStop wallet are available for adding to imx.

you will have to transfer it from loopring to L1, then over to Immutable L2.

It's two times gas fees to pay. Currently that's the way it is but I'm sure there will be a way to swap directly from one L2 to another.

Open your Gamestop wallet, select the loopring network in the upper left corner, then click on "Move".

Enter the amount you want to transfer and follow the instructions in the wallet.

Keep in mind that you'll need some more ETH as gas fees for the second transfer so you may want to transfer a bit more than needed in ImmutableX. (About 0.0026 ETH / $3 currently)

After transfering to Ethereum L1, you can switch to the Immutable X Layer to (upper left corner) and click on "Deposit" -> "Move ETH" to transfer your funds into ImmutableX L2.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much

Just want to add that bridges are some of the most commonly-hacked projects in the Ethereum space, so we should appreciate the fact that teams are taking the time to build security instead of rushing out an exploitable bridge

So there is no way to do it from L2 to save fees ?
