- Select the 'Network' button to choose the network you want to bridge to.

Is the BNB Bridge Safe?
The Binance Bridge is a safe and easy way to bridge your assets from one network to another. However, as with any centralized service, there are some risks associated with using it. The main risk with using the Binance Bridge is that you are trusting Binance to custody your assets while they are being transferred. This means that if Binance were to be hacked or experience any other type of security breach, your assets could be at risk.
Another risk to consider is that Binance could choose to freeze your account or otherwise prevent you from accessing your assets. While this is unlikely, it is something to keep in mind if you are planning on using the Binance Bridge to transfer large amounts of assets.
