Trust shouldn't be the price of a swap.



Think about it: if you're moving assets across chains, you're probably relying on bridges, intermediaries, or relayers at some point. The moment trust enters the equation, the whole system becomes fragile.

What if there was another way?

The idea is straightforward but powerful:
→ Your native assets stay exactly where they are
→ Execution follows deterministic rules (no guesswork)
→ Settlement gets locked in, not just promised

No middleman theater. No faith-based finance. Just mechanics.

Swap BTC for ETH? The same principle applies—each step is verifiable, each piece of logic is enforced. You're not betting on someone keeping their word; you're counting on cryptography and code.

That's what decentralized should actually mean.
BTC-2,11%
ETH-3,66%

That's right, centralized bridging is a trust black hole, it should have been dismantled long ago.

It sounds ideal, but can a bridge really achieve complete trustlessness? It still seems like you have to trust a set of validators.

That's right, the whole bridge system should have been scrapped long ago. Do I still have to trust middlemen making a profit from arbitrage? Isn't on-chain verification more reliable?

Well said, those middlemen in cross-chain bridging are really annoying, and you have to trust them not to run away.

It's the same old story about cross-chain issues. It sounds nice when you talk about it, but it's really different to implement.
