Hey thanks for writing up the guide!

I would like to know how to [bridge](https://talk.markets/t/bridges-transfer-funds-between-chains-in-the-world-of-defi/68) MOVR from bsc as I need it for gas fees.

Your guide explains how to [bridge](https://talk.markets/t/bridges-transfer-funds-between-chains-in-the-world-of-defi/68) BNB however there is no mention on how to [bridge](https://talk.markets/t/bridges-transfer-funds-between-chains-in-the-world-of-defi/68) MOVR for gas fees.

Could you please let me know if there is a solution for this.

All the best!

As far as I know there is no MOVR token on BSC **yet** - so it won’t be possible to directly get MOVR. Wanchain is working on this but it’s not ready yet, if they are live you could buy wanMOVR and [bridge](https://talk.markets/t/bridges-transfer-funds-between-chains-in-the-world-of-defi/68) those to Moonriver Chain directly.

You need to [bridge](https://talk.markets/t/bridges-transfer-funds-between-chains-in-the-world-of-defi/68) the BNB and swap the BNB for MOVR.

However it’s true you need MOVR for Gas, so far you have two options:

- Transfer some MOVR from one of the exchanges ([Kucoin](https://www.kucoin.com/ucenter/signup?rcode=E3m8gj), Kraken or [Gate.io](http://Gate.io))
- Ask a friend for a small amount of MOVR
