Continuing our march towards a singularly interconnected DeFi landscape, today we announce support for Metis, a permissionless Layer-2 aiming to be the ‘superfluid self-sustainable blockchain.’
Metis is a Layer-2 scaling solution that uses optimistic rollup technology to offload smart contract execution to Ethereum while solving some of the major challenges, such as transaction speed, scalability, and gas fees.
Metis is our fourth IaaS-initialized chain, and today becomes instantly composable with every blockchain ecosystem supported on deBridge, along with access to the following features:
- High-performance bridging: Metis invites users and builders to explore the dApps of tomorrow built in the ecosystem. Anyone can bridge with near-instant settlement, deep liquidity, and protection from MEV and slippage.
- Transfers of authenticated messages: With deBridge IaaS, Metis can securely transfer messages via decentralized infrastructure across all our supported chains.
- Secure asset custody: dePort enables secure custody of assets for Metis users coming from chains supported on deBridge. Projects or dApps can port tokens from any chain to enable utility in the Metis blockchain ecosystem.
The three pillars help enable complete cross-chain interoperability for Metis, empowering the ecosystem for user base expansion. While the native bridge takes a long time and only allows transfers between Ethereum and Andromeda (Metis), anyone can bridge to Metis in seconds on deBridge.
We now ensure the ease of bridging assets to Metis from all the supported chains, including Ethereum, Solana, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, BSC, Neon EVM, Gnosis, and LightLink.
With the integration, users can be a part of the ecosystem and try hands on new dApps while developers can easily cross-compose between Metis and all other blockchains.
Any blockchain ecosystem (EVM or SVM) can initialize a deBridge IaaS subscription and connect to deBridge today.
What is deBridge IaaS?
deBridge IaaS is a turnkey solution for EVM and SVM blockchain ecosystems, both permissionless and permissioned. It solves all three pillars of interoperability simultaneously, including:
- High-performance value exchange
- Transfers of authenticated messages
- Secure asset custody.
Metis is the fourth solution to leverage deBridge IaaS for complete interoperability with the 12 other chains supported by deBridge. We will soon integrate more than six chains for our users.
