The cross-chain protocol consists of four main components:
1. Higher-level smart contracts:
- Higher-level smart contracts (HOSC) have direct access to blockchain data and metadata, such as prices, events, finality, and more complex metrics like financial signals (e.g., EMA, candles).
- Cross-chain transactions can be executed in less than 1 second, not limited to our blockchain, while maintaining robust security through TSS GG20 (the option to store HOSCs on-chain is optional).
- HOSCs can be utilized to manage cross-chain applications, including decentralized exchanges (DEXes), liquidity pools, and yield farming.
- The protocol supports parallel stateless transactions.
2. Universal single transaction cross-chain swaps:
- This feature enables asset swapping between chains without the need to create new token types (e.g., wrapped, eth).
- Users can choose the destination chain at any time, either immediately or by postponing the transaction to wait for the best price or condition, searching across multiple chains.
3. Cross-chain pool building protocol:
- The protocol allows anyone to create a cross-chain pool with any desired logic, fostering flexibility in designing cross-chain applications.
4. Cross-chain routing:
- This functionality facilitates the discovery of the best possible exchange path between chains, DEXes, and the cross-chain order book.
Overall, this protocol serves as a versatile solution for developing cross-chain applications, decentralized exchanges (DEXes), and offloading logic from the consensus layer to a higher level.
Key crosschain protocol properties:
- Unbounded by a single blockchain: As a DEX aggregator, we facilitate seamless transfers from tokens on one chain to another, available across multiple DEXs.
- Leveraging extensive liquidity: Our platform utilizes an array of liquidity pools across all connected blockchains.
- Uncompromised control of funds: Users retain complete custody of their assets, eliminating the need for external transfers or bridge usage.
- Unwrapped asset transfers: Transfers to other blockchains maintain the original form of your assets. For instance, 'Cake' on Polygon transfers to BSC as 'Cake', not 'w(poly)Cake'.
- Efficient cross-chain transfers: The transfer time across chains is dictated solely by the finality of the originating chain. We initiate transactions on the target chain as soon as finality is reached on the sender's chain.
- Secure token exchanges: Our platform enables safe token exchanges, even from cold storage wallets. The built-in smart contract mechanism ensures that you can retrieve your funds exclusively to your account.
- Accessible and flexible interface: Our cross-platform interface is user-friendly and easily accessible from mobile devices.
Once we resolved research stage of the prodject and made a testnet version we tried to use it for next generation dapps: eg, implement crosschain futures on different assets and sigrals is going to take 4 weeks(started this week :) ). When all fundomental problems are solved it's wasy to make crosschain applications or instruments.
Here are some use cases for a cross-chain interoperability platform:
1. **Cross-Chain Arbitrage**: Traders could take advantage of price differences between tokens on different chains, buying low on one chain and selling high on another.
2. **Cross-chain privite copy trading**: As far as HOSCs can be privite and not deployed on chains it's possible only show result APY to users and build referral copy-trading projects.
3. **Cross-Chain Yield Farming**: DeFi users could execute complex strategies involving multiple DeFi protocols on different chains, maximizing their yield.
4. **Cross-Chain Liquidity Provision**: Liquidity providers could supply liquidity to DEXs across different chains, maximizing their returns.
5. **Cross-Chain Loans**: Users could take loans across different chains, expanding the possibilities for such loans. Locking correteral on different chains.
6. **Cross-Chain Asset Management**: Asset managers could manage a portfolio of tokens across different chains from a single platform.
7. **Cross-Chain Collateralization**: Users could use assets from different chains as collateral in DeFi protocols.
8. **Multi-Chain NFT Trading**: NFT collectors could trade NFTs across different chains, accessing a wider market.
9. **Cross-Chain ICOs/IDOs**: Projects could conduct ICOs or IDOs across multiple chains simultaneously, increasing their reach.
10. **Interoperable DAOs**: DAOs could operate across different chains, enabling a wider range of governance actions.
