Hedera EVM allows bridged assets to arrive on Hedera as standard ERC-20 tokens, interoperable with [Bonzo Lend](https://app.bonzo.finance/lend), [Bonzo Vaults](https://app.bonzo.finance/vaults), [SaucerSwap](https://saucerswap.finance), and the wider Hedera DeFi ecosystem. ### Taxi Mode Bonzo Bridge uses Stargate's [taxi mode](https://docs.stargate.finance/primitives/concepts/transport) by default. In taxi mode, each transaction is processed individually rather than batched with other users' transfers. This produces faster and more predictable delivery times, at the cost of being slightly more expensive than batched (bus) mode. Users do not need to configure this — taxi mode is applied automatically to every bridge transaction. ### Automatic Native ETH Delivery When a user bridges WETH to a chain that uses ETH as its native currency (Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, or Optimism), the bridge automatically unwraps WETH and delivers native ETH to the destination wallet. No additional transactions or manual unwrapping steps are required. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.bonzo.finance/hub/bonzo-bridge-beta/bonzo-bridge-quickstart/overview.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
