Migrate to Verus
Bring your token and community to a more secure ecosystem while maintaining full Ethereum compatibility.
Map your ERC-20 1:1 and keep Ethereum access
Verus lets you launch a mapped currency tied directly to an existing ERC-20 token through the Verus-Ethereum Bridge. Your token stays usable on Ethereum while gaining cheaper execution, protocol-level DeFi, and self-sovereign controls on Verus.
Create a mapped currency
Launch a Verus currency that maps directly to your existing ERC-20 token.
Use a non-custodial bridge
Bridge value without handing custody to a single operator or contract owner.
Move liquidity across networks
Users can move tokens freely between Ethereum and Verus networks.
Keep both ecosystems live
Stay accessible on Ethereum while gaining Verus-native execution and features.
Key benefits over staying on Ethereum
A mapped migration is not just about compatibility. It gives your token lower execution costs, fairer market structure, and access to protocol-level tooling that is difficult to reproduce on contract-heavy systems.
Lower fees
Execution costs stay predictable even when Ethereum is expensive.
- Standard transactions cost a fraction of a cent.
- DeFi operations avoid gas markets and use protocol-level fees.
- Users get stable costs instead of congestion-driven spikes.
MEV resistance
Protocol rules remove the most common execution games around order flow.
- No front-running inside a block.
- All users converting in the same block get the same fair price.
- Sandwich attacks cannot reorder execution for profit.
Protocol-level security
Core currency behavior is validated by consensus instead of custom smart contracts.
- Mapped currencies inherit protocol validation.
- Features run as smart transactions without app-specific contract risk.
- 51% attack resistance: Verus Proof of Power requires attackers to control both hash power and stake.
DeFi expansion
Mapped assets can plug into Verus-native liquidity and basket structures.
- Use the token as a reserve in basket currencies.
- Create baskets with up to 10 reserve currencies.
- Set backing ratios from 5% to 100% depending on the model.
Migration path
The workflow is straightforward. Define the namespace, create the mapped currency, complete the bridge path, and then decide whether you want to extend the asset with Verus-native DeFi.
Register a VerusID
Create a namespace for your project.
Map the ERC-20
Launch a currency mapped to your token with a single command.
Export to Ethereum
Complete the bridge path so the mapped currency is active on Ethereum as well.
Add DeFi instruments
Optionally build baskets, liquidity pools, and other Verus-native market structure.
Get help planning the move
Bring the token contract, supply model, bridge questions, and any liquidity constraints. The community can help you decide how to map the asset and what to launch first on Verus.
