One thing that has always been an important goal in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space is interoperability. A lot of progress has been made on that front in regards to fungible tokens, but it is still extremely rare to find NFTs that can be used across multiple blockchains or platforms. Splinterlands first demonstrated this with our Ethereum bridge and now we are further entrenching ourselves on the forefront of NFT utility by bridging to the WAX blockchain as well.

The Splinterlands team is extremely excited to announce that Splinterlands cards, packs, and land claims will soon be able to be transferred to and from the WAX blockchain where they can be bought, sold, and traded on the AtomicHub platform!

**The new WAX bridge which will allow transfers of Splinterlands assets between the game and the WAX blockchain is scheduled to go live tomorrow, Friday, February 19th, at approximately 11:00 AM EST / 16:00 UTC.**

This integration has been a long time in the making and we are very much looking forward to bringing Splinterlands into the WAX ecosystem and bringing the WAX community into Splinterlands. We also expect and hope that this will be the first of many integrations and promotions we do between Splinterlands and the WAX ecosystem going forward.

Before we get into the details, we want to express our sincere thanks to the AtomicAssets team behind the AtomicHub platform on WAX. They have been extremely helpful and great to work with on bringing this integration to life and we couldn't have done it without them. We encourage everyone to check out AtomicHub and use and support them. 

## Transfer Assets to WAX

The following assets will be able to be transferred to and from WAX, with additional assets planned to be added in the future:

- Cards
- Pack Tokens
- Land Claim Tokens

To transfer any of the above items to the WAX platform you can use the normal method of transferring them through the Splinterlands game website and there will be a new option to transfer to WAX once the bridge is live. Additionally, bots or other automated scripts may transfer any of the above assets to the `sl-wax` account in the game to send them to the WAX platform once the bridge is live.

Assets will be sent to the WAX wallet address currently linked to your Splinterlands account, so please make sure to link your WAX wallet address if you have not done so already by clicking on your account name at the top right of the Splinterlands website and choosing the "Link External Wallets" option.

Please keep in mind that we cannot recover any assets sent to an incorrect WAX wallet.

## Transfer Assets into Splinterlands

Splinterlands assets held in a WAX blockchain wallet will need to be transferred back into the game in order to be used. New filters have been added to the card collection and card details screens in the Splinterlands website to view any cards held on the WAX blockchain in the wallet linked to the current Splinterlands account, as well as an option to transfer them back into the game.

Transferring assets from WAX into Splinterlands will require broadcasting a transaction to the WAX blockchain. The options on the Splinterlands website will set up the transaction for you and allow you to confirm and sign the transaction using either WAX Cloud Wallet or the Anchor wallet software.

Additionally, assets can be transferred from WAX into Splinterlands using any WAX wallet by sending them to the `splintrlands` account on WAX and including the recipient's Splinterlands/Hive blockchain account name in the memo. Please note that the Splinterlands account on the WAX blockchain is `splintrlands` (without the "e") since custom WAX accounts must be 12 letters long.

## Buy, Sell, and Trade on AtomicHub

Splinterlands assets can be bought, sold, and traded on https://wax.atomichub.io along with loads of other NFTs from many other games and projects, however Splinterlands also has their own page and subdomain on AtomicHub at https://splinterlands.atomichub.io which will only show official Splinterlands NFTs.

Please be aware that anyone can make NFTs on WAX/AtomicHub and there are many scams that make unofficial NFTs that look just like official ones. All official Splinterlands assets will be part of the `splintrlands` collection (without the "e") and will have a checkmark next to the collection name to indicated it has been verified by the AtomicHub team.

If you use the https://splinterlands.atomichub.io page then only verified, official Splinterlands assets will be shown.

All buying and selling on AtomicHub uses the WAX (WAXP) token and requires a WAX wallet address and wallet software to use. As mentioned above, WAX wallets can be created for free at https://all-access.wax.io/ and WAX (WAXP) tokens can be purchased on numerous exchanges including Bittrex, Upbit, Huobi, Bithumb, and KuCoin.

## Mint Numbers

The AtomicHub platform tracks the "mint number" of each different type of asset and there are many people who like to collect first mints or low mint number assets. Splinterlands cards will also have mint numbers on WAX, however they will represent only the order in which the cards were minted on the WAX blockchain and not in the Splinterlands game. That means that the first Goblin Shaman card that is transferred from the game to the WAX blockchain will be the first mint of that specific card regardless of when it was actually minted in Splinterlands.

Splinterlands fully supports players trying to be the first to mint each type of card (each edition and foil version of a card is considered a separate asset as far as mint numbers go) or to collect low mint number cards on WAX, however we want to be clear that the WAX mint number of an asset has no utility or value within the Splinterlands game.

Additionally, when a card is sent from WAX back into Splinterlands, that asset will be burned on the WAX blockchain and its mint number will be lost. If the same card is later transferred back to WAX a new version will be minted. This is necessary since the card level, BCX, and image may have changed since it was last transferred back into Splinterlands. 

## Issues & Support

While we have done a significant amount of internal testing for the WAX-Splinterlands bridge, as with any new feature it is possible that there may be some unexpected bugs or issues that arise once it is released to players. 

If you experience any issues transferring Splinterlands assets between the game and WAX, please contact us at support@splinterlands.com or in the #tech-support channel on the [Splinterlands Discord Server](https://discord.gg/CAFJRjY).

Depending on the volume of support requests it may take some time for us to resolve each one, so please be patient, and be assured that we will make sure all assets get to the appropriate place.
