[$ZEST](https://x.com/search?q=%24ZEST\&src=cashtag_click) holders can move tokens between the available chains at any time via the [Zest Protocol webapp here](https://app.zestprotocol.com/bridge).&#x20;

The supported routes are:

3. Select the origin and destination chain based on the supported routes
4. Enter the tokens amount to bridge
5. Confirm the transaction
