Tutorial GitHub Repository This tutorial demonstrates how to convert between an hex-based ERC20 token address and a Cosmos coin denom.

​
Prerequisites

​
Project Setup

First, we need to create a new directory for our project. 
mkdir cosmos-coin-to-erc20
cd cosmos-coin-to-erc20
Next, we will initialize the project and create a index.js file in a src directory. 
npm init
touch src/index.js

​
Development

For this tutorial, we will assume that we have an ERC20 token address 0x5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0 that we want to convert to a Cosmos coin denom, and then convert it back to an ERC20 token address. First, we initialize the variable for the chain’s LCD endpoint and the ERC20 token address.
src/index.js
const lcdUrl = `https://lcd.minievm-2.initia.xyz`;
const erc20Address = "0x5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0"

​
ERC20 to Cosmos Denom

To actually do the conversion, we will be using the LCD’s /minievm/evm/v1/denoms/{contractAddress} endpoint.
src/index.js
// previous code
async function erc20ToCoinDenom(contractAddress) {
  const response = await fetch(`${lcdUrl}/minievm/evm/v1/denoms/${contractAddress}`);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}
If the address is a valid ERC20 token address, the response just returns the token’s Cosmos coin denom. 
evm/5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0

​
Cosmos Denom to ERC20 Address

To convert a Cosmos coin denom back to an ERC20 token address, we will be using the LCD’s /minievm/evm/v1/contracts/by_denom?denom={denom} endpoint.
src/index.js
// previous code
async function coinDenomToErc20(denom) {
  const response = await fetch(`${lcdUrl}/minievm/evm/v1/contracts/by_denom?denom=${denom}`);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}
If the denom is a valid Cosmos coin denom, the response just returns the token’s ERC20 token address. 
0x5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0
The full code for the script, including the section to actually call the function is as follows:
src/index.js
const lcdUrl = `https://lcd.minievm-2.initia.xyz`;
const erc20Address = "0x5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0"

async function erc20ToCoinDenom(contractAddress) {
  const response = await fetch(`${lcdUrl}/minievm/evm/v1/denoms/${contractAddress}`);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}
async function coinDenomToErc20(denom) {
  const response = await fetch(`${lcdUrl}/minievm/evm/v1/contracts/by_denom?denom=${denom}`);
  const data = await response.json();
  return data;
}

(async () => {
  const coinDenomResponse = await erc20ToCoinDenom(erc20Address);
  console.log(coinDenomResponse.denom);
  const erc20Response = await coinDenomToErc20(coinDenomResponse.denom);
  console.log(erc20Response.address);
})();
If we run this script, we should see the following output: 
evm/5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0
0x5E5f1a92eECA58053E8364630b66763aa6265Ab0
