How to send ASTR/SDN from exchanges to Metamask

Gate.io is the first exchange that provides the solution for Polkadot parachains to use both address schemes from one parachain (L1 blockchain) in their exchange. Users can now use Gate.io to transfer funds from their native address to the exchange and from their EVM wallet (i.e. MetaMask) to the exchange and vice versa. That means users can deposit their fund from native address, then withdraw the fund to EVM address. With this development, you don't need to learn about Substrate native addresses , you can simply use Metamask.

Note: DO NOT send funds from your native address to Astar EVM on Gate.io! Doing this will result in losing your funds.

Step1: Go to Gate.io and click "withdraw"

Step2: Use Astar/SDN EVM Address
