# Bridging from Perennial

To bridge assets from Perennial to another chain, you are able to choose between two bridges. Each bridge has different speed/costs, so ensure to look at either option when deciding which one to use.

## Using the Fast bridge (\~1min)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Due to the design of Relay's system users can expect some slippage when bridging.
{% endhint %}

Using Relay's intent bridge you can bridge almost instantly from Perennial. This bridge allows you to choose any destination chain that Relay supports, including non-EVM chains.

## Using the Native Bridge (\~1 day)

{% hint style="warning" %}
This bridge currently takes 1 day to withdraw from the chain
{% endhint %}

Using the chain's native bridge you can withdraw bridged assets to BASE chain. This bridge doesn't have slippage but requires much more time.\
