Uniswap wants to shine and to achieve this, its team is working hard. The popular decentralized exchange is launching a new bridge to connect Ethereum with other blockchains and facilitate asset transfers. With this initiative, Uniswap intends to simplify the lives of its users by offering them crypto exchanges without the usual hassles. Zoom in on this revolutionary bridge which will be a game-changer for the six million active users of the DEX.
Uniswap: A bridge that reinvents multi-chain transfers
In addition to the deployment of a major update at Uniswap, a new bridge. This now allows transfer crypto-assets across nine different blockchains directly from the Uniswap interface or wallet. Among the blockchains concerned, we find in particular Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum and Polygon.
Thanks to the collaboration with Across Protocol, this bridge stands out for its permissionless nature and impressive speed : transactions are settled in seconds, compared to several minutes previously.
Supported blockchains:
- Ethereum (ETH);
- Base ;
- Arbitrum (ARB);
- Polygon (POL);
- Zora, ZKSync, Optimism (OP).
For users, this is the end of long waits and complex interfaces of external bridges. Uniswap thus responds to a pressing demand from its followers for an integrated and fluid service, all with increased security thanks to the use of a decentralized network of liquidity pools and relays.
Crypto made simple: Uniswap reaches a new milestone
Uniswap does not hide its ambitions: to facilitate exchanges in an increasingly multi-chain crypto world. Until now, moving your assets from one blockchain to another was an obstacle course, with risks to the security of funds. Now, permissionless bridging via Across Protocol puts an end to this hassle.
“ The future will be multi-channel, » announces Uniswap Labs, which continues to develop new features for its six million users spread across several networks.
Today, only native assets like ETH or stablecoins are eligible for the bridge, but improvements are already in the pipeline to expand this list.
Finally, Unichain, the crypto solution recently deployed by Uniswap, could well eclipse all other layer 2s thanks to this new visionary infrastructure.
