Bridge ERC-1155 Tokens
SKALE’s Interchain Messaging Agent includes a native bridging layer for ERC-1155 tokens, the most popular semi-fungible token standard that exists in blockchain today. The following introduces key information on setting up the bridgeable assets as well as how to programatically bridge the tokens.
Important Information
Section titled “Important Information”- When a SKALE Chain is created, there are NO ERC-1155 tokens mapped by default
- In order to bridge an ERC-1155 token to a SKALE Chain from Ethereum, it must be added by the SKALE Chain owner or operator via the standard mapping process
- All ERC-1155 tokens bridged into SKALE have a set of basic requirements to make them compatible with SKALE’s bridging layer
Bridge Setup
Section titled “Bridge Setup”1. Prepare the ERC-1155 on SKALE
Section titled “1. Prepare the ERC-1155 on SKALE”ERC-1155 tokens that are being bridged to SKALE should follow two basic requirements in order to be compatible with the SKALE IMA bridging layer:
- Have a mint function that is locked down to the IMA Bridge
- Have a burn function that is locked down to the IMA Bridge
The following is the base interchain token code that meets the above bridging requirements for IMA. It is not recommended to use this directly, but to use a wrapper. See InGameTokens for an example of InterchainERC1155 in use!
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MITpragma solidity 0.8.9;
import { ERC1155 } from "@openzeppelin/contracts/token/ERC1155/extensions/ERC1155.sol";import { AccessControl } from "@openzeppelin/contracts/access/AccessControl.sol";import { Strings } from "@openzeppelin/contracts/utils/Strings.sol";
contract InterchainERC1155 is AccessControl, ERC1155 { using Strings for uint256;
bytes32 public constant MINTER_ROLE = keccak256("MINTER_ROLE"); string private _baseUri;

function uri(uint256 tokenId) public view override returns (string memory) { return string(abi.encodePacked(_baseUri, tokenId.toString(), ".json")); }
function mint( address account, uint256 id, uint256 amount, bytes memory data ) external { require(hasRole(MINTER_ROLE, _msgSender()), "Sender is not a Minter"); _mint(account, id, amount, data); }
function mintBatch( address account, uint256[] memory ids, uint256[] memory amounts, bytes memory data ) external { require(hasRole(MINTER_ROLE, _msgSender()), "Sender is not a Minter"); _mintBatch(account, ids, amounts, data); }
function setBaseUri(string memory newBaseUri) external onlyRole(DEFAULT_ADMIN_ROLE) { _baseUri = newBaseUri; }}
2. Deploy the ERC-1155 on SKALE
Section titled “2. Deploy the ERC-1155 on SKALE”Utilize your preferred tooling i.e Foundry, Hardhat, Remix, etc. to deploy your IMA compatible ERC-1155 token to the SKALE Chain you want to be able to bridge assets too.
// SPDX-License-Identifier: MITpragma solidity 0.8.19;
import { InterchainERC1155 } from "./InterchainERC1155.sol";
contract InGameTokens is InterchainERC1155("ipfs://<cid>") {}
InterchainERC1155.sol is inherited from the code above
3. Map the SKALE and Ethereum tokens together
Section titled “3. Map the SKALE and Ethereum tokens together”Add the token on Ethereum via SAFE
Section titled “Add the token on Ethereum via SAFE”Start by visiting your SAFE via the official SAFE website or your preferred tool. If you are unsure, you can follow the steps here.
Once on your SAFE, start by preparing a transaction via the Transaction Builder. Follow these steps:
- Input the DepositBoxERC1155 address into the address field.
- Select Use Implementation ABI
- Select
addERC1155TokenByOwner
for the method - Input your SKALE Chain Name and your ERC-1155 contract address on Ethereum in the fields
- Send by itself or via batch
Add the token on SKALE Chain TokenManagerERC1155
Section titled “Add the token on SKALE Chain TokenManagerERC1155”npx msig encodeData [SKALE_CHAIN_NAME] TokenManagerERC1155 addERC1155TokenByOwner Mainnet 0x[TOKEN_ON_ETHEREUM] 0x[TOKEN_ON_SKALE_CHAIN]
After this, execute by following the steps on Using SAFE
Verify the Mapping
Section titled “Verify the Mapping”To verify the mapping, you should have an event emitted from the following:
-
DepositBoxERC1155 on Ethereum -
event ERC1155TokenAdded(string schainName, address indexed contractOnMainnet);
-
TokenManagerERC1155 on SKALE Chain -
event ERC1155TokenAdded(SchainHash indexed chainHash, address indexed erc1155OnMainChain, address indexed erc1155nSchain);
Bridging ERC-1155
Section titled “Bridging ERC-1155”The following does not require you to setup your own token. This works with ANY ERC-1155 token that is mapped from Ethereum to any SKALE Chain as long as the actual ERC-1155 token on each side does not have additional restrictions around who can transfer.
The flow for bridging an ERC-1155 from Ethereum to SKALE follows a very similar flow to a standard ERC-1155 transfer:
- Approve the bridge contract on the ERC-1155 token to allow it to move your NFTs
- Call the bridge directly to transfer the specific ERC-1155 from Ethereum -> SKALE Chain, if the mapping exists
- Wait for the message to be posted by the validator set on the SKALE Chain, which is the net-new minted NFT corresponding to the NFT (by id(s) and amount(s)) locked on Ethereum during the bridge

Bridge to Ethereum (from SKALE)
Section titled “Bridge to Ethereum (from SKALE)”SKALE’s decentralized bridge offers a simple two-step process to bridge from any SKALE Chain to Ethereum Mainnet.
-
The first step, which only has to be done if you don’t have a sufficient balance to exit, is to fill up your gas wallet on Ethereum
-
The second step is to initiate the bridge (technically known as an exit) on the SKALE Chain
Pre-pay for your Exit
Section titled “Pre-pay for your Exit”This step is optional IF the user has already filled up their gas wallet and has sufficient balance left.
You can check if the wallet is an activeUser
on the CommunityLocker 0xD2aaa00300000000000000000000000000000000 smart contract on the SKALE Chain. If active, no need to fill the pool again.
import { Contract, JsonRpcProvider, Wallet, parseEther } from "ethers"; // npm add ethers
const PRIVATE_KEY = "[YOUR_PRIVATE_KEY]";const ETHEREUM_RPC_URL = "[YOUR_ETHEREUM_RPC_URL]";const COMMUNITY_POOL_ADDRESS = "[COMMUNIY_POOL_ADDRESS]";const COMMUNITY_POOL_ABI = [ "function rechargeUserWallet(string calldata schainName, address user) external" ];const SKALE_CHAIN_NAME = "[SKALE_CHAIN_NAME]"; // e.g elated-tan-skat (europa mainnnet);
// Setup the RPC Provider to connect to Ethereumconst provider = new JsonRpcProvider(ETHEREUM_RPC_URL);
// Setup the wallet with your private key and default to the Ethereum providerconst wallet = new Wallet(PRIVATE_KEY, provider);
// Setup the smart contracts which default to being signed by your wallet and connected on Ethereumconst communityPoolContract = new Contract(COMMUNITY_POOL_ADDRESS, COMMUNITY_POOL_ABI, wallet);
const rechargeTx = await communityPoolContract.rechargeUserWallet( SKALE_CHAIN_NAME, wallet.address, { value: parseEther("0.02") // Recharge by 0.02 ETH });
await rechargeTx.wait(5); // wait 5 blocks for full finality
// Success! You can now bridge from SKALE to Ethereum!console.log("Success!");
Bridge to Ethereum
Section titled “Bridge to Ethereum”Once the above prepayment steps are completed, you can proceed with the bridging.
Bridging from SKALE simply requires the exitToMainERC1155
function to be called with the corresponding token and amount to initiate the transfer back to Ethereum.
