Across The Cryptoverse #25 - Leading In A Hyper-Competitive Cross-Chain Landscape
Across is the bridge that Ethereum deserves, being fast and financially efficient. Across connects Layer 2 and rollups to L1 Ethereum, being secured by the UMA’s optimistic oracle. The challenge is to expand on multiple EVM chains and absorb finality risk via the network of fast relayers.
zkSync was added as a bridging option, LP liquidity was added on Velodrome, and this are only few of the reasons why Across is on top of the hyper-competitive cross-chain landscape! Across wins on speed, price, and security, with an averaged 29.7% of aggregator share volume in Q2.
Aggregators have huge potential for growth, as they will capture market share by offering the best price and UX once Web3 hits mass adoption. Across will be there to offer the best route when it comes to speed and financial efficiency.
Do you have a favorite bridge? I like this one IRL and Across in the Cryptoverse! Across has a single liquidity pool, a competitive relayer landscape, and a no-slippage fee model. The token bridging will remain essential for any permutation of the cross-chain future, and Across will keep focusing on building the best possible technology to transfer value across blockchains.
Bridges like Across are helping users move across the ecosystem every day. It’s easy to see this from a quick glance on-chain — we also know it because our team has spent countless hours studying data for deep insights into every cross-chain bridge.
When DeFi users want to move their assets across chains, they have to make a decision on how to get there. They may default to a canonical bridge, especially if they happen to be moving millions of dollars or they could have a preferred option that they’ve been using for a while.
Savvy crypto users want to get the best deal at the fastest speed, so they go to an aggregator. Bridge aggregators work much the same way as DEX aggregators, integrating multiple solutions and identifying the best route for users to execute their transactions.
I love aggregators efficiency in calculations, but I already know that Across is the top recommendation from and to layer2 chains. This makes me skip the step and use my favorite bridge, knowing that there's no better option. Can your bridge move 110 USDC to Polygon in 7 seconds, and pay only 4 cents fee?
Want to talk more about capital efficiency and why Across is the top choice for both normies and whales? Have a look at the transaction below, where 2,69 millions where bridged and the fee paid for this colossal transaction was only $10.82 with 49 gwei! That's a game-changer!
I like to think I brought my share towards the success of Across by working towards the integration of the bridge as a solution on Dodo! As expected... Across is the recommended solution for cross-chain bridging!
Let's show some facts about single cross-chain transactions and the fee comparisons. You will wonder why are the median fees so different between bridges, even for the most common transfer amount range!
Across is continuously optimizing to lower gas fees thanks to bundled transactions and the decentralized relayer network drives down fees for the end user. The system brings capital efficiency in cross-chain liquidity and a reduction in on-chain transactions incurring gas fees
The Across' architecture and the verification by UMA's optimistic oracle is winning without compromising on security. Onwards and upwards... as Across rolls out to new chains! Across really is the bridge Ethereum deserves and the median fees for transactions under $1500 are there to be analysed. Why would you pay more when you could pay less?
Across on zkSync was a blessing, as I can chase the announced airdrop with less stress. Cheaper bridging and a new protocol to use on my bounty farming. The same ultra speed transactions and less waste on gas fees! Transferred ETH to zkSync and paid less then ever, only 0.000441 destination gas fee and 0.00000806 bridge fee! Time to farm and tick more boxes!
If you are yet to discover zkSync and the best protocols on the layer2 chain... Across has your back! The Ape Into zkSummer campaign will bring the top projects in the spotlights, through AMAs, Twitter Spaces, community calls and amazing games!
This campaign was possible by the collaboration with Taho and zkSync. Taho (earlier Tally Ho!) is a community-owned Web3 cryptocurrency wallet... similar to Metamask... but better! The wallet is packed with everything required for NFTs, DeFi, many amazing features or services to love, and 100% decentralized!
You should consider using the Taho Wallet while farming for the zkSync airdrop, and triple dip by bridging with Across! Why triple dip? You earn $ACX tokens by bridging, you make transactions that may make you eligible for the $ZKS drop ... and (spoiler alert) you may get a Taho surprise on top of that!
There's extra rewards for the ACX holders, as the tokens can be staked for more tokens. The rewards never stop, as all stakers are eligible for the staker badge. The NFT will change in real time, depending on the staked assets, staked amount, or how long the capital was staked. My badge was generated with $ACX and $wETH logos, and the special background for those that staked for more than 100 days.
It's fun to be part of the Across community even if you don't hold $ACX or you don't bridge crypto around layer2s. There are games every week, events and competitions that suit all type of users, and a wheel after the weekly community call. Once upon a time I was the chosen by the wheel and won $25 in ACX!
