Swapping Fantom to Sonic on Edge isn’t a simple one-step exchange—it actually bridges tokens between networks. To ensure the swap works, you must split your FTM Wallet into a Sonic variant so that both “FTM” and “Sonic” reside under the same address. Below is a streamlined guide to get you through the process.
Prerequisites
Edge App Version
Ensure you’re running the latest version of Edge Wallet (iOS/Android).FTM Balance
• You must have at least 1 FTM in your wallet.
• FTM balance should be in the wallet you plan to split.Turn On Fantom/Sonic Upgrade Plugin
• Open Edge and tap the ☰ Side Menu (upper-right).
• Go to Settings → Exchange Settings.
• Toggle Fantom/Sonic Upgrade to On.
Step 1: Split FTM into Sonic
Navigate to Your FTM Wallet
• Tap Assets at the bottom.
• Find and tap FTM in the asset list.Access the Split Menu
• In your FTM wallet view, tap the ⋮ (three vertical dots) in the upper-right corner.
• Choose Split Wallet from the menu.Choose Sonic
• When prompted, select Sonic as the token to split into.
• Tap Confirm.After confirmation, Edge creates a new Sonic wallet automatically—this wallet’s address matches your FTM wallet address (i.e., it’s derived from the same keypair).
Step 2: Perform the Swap (Bridge)
Go to the Exchange Screen
• Tap Exchange from the bottom navigation bar.Set Up Source and Receiving Wallets
• Source Wallet: Select the original FTM wallet that held your funds.
• Receiving Wallet: Must select the newly created Sonic wallet (the one you just split).If you pick a different Sonic wallet (not the one created via “Split”), you’ll see an error:
“No enabled exchanges support this token.”Enter the Amount
• Specify how many FTM you want to bridge into Sonic (minimum 1 FTM).
• Edge will display fees and the estimated Sonic amount you’ll receive.Review and Confirm
• Double-check that Source = FTM wallet and Destination = Sonic wallet.
• Tap Review Swap.
• If everything looks correct, tap Confirm.
Edge will broadcast the bridging transaction. After a short wait, your Sonic wallet balance will update.
Troubleshooting Tips
“No enabled exchanges support this token” Error
• Verify that you’re using the exact Sonic wallet created during the Split step.
• If you don’t see the Sonic wallet under Assets, make sure the Fantom/Sonic Upgrade plugin is still enabled (Side Menu → Settings → Exchange Settings).Insufficient Balance to Split
• You need at least 1 FTM in the FTM wallet to perform a Split.
• If you have only fractional FTM (e.g., 0.5 FTM), you’ll need to deposit more or convert from another token first.Swap Amount Below Minimum
• The swap requires ≥ 1 FTM. If you enter less, the app will prompt you to increase the amount.Pending/Suspended Transactions
• Wait a few minutes for the blockchain to confirm.
• If the transaction remains pending for more than 10 minutes, check network status or view details in your FTM wallet’s transaction history.
