Connext launched on Optimistic Ethereum
We are excited to announce that Connext has integrated Optimistic Ethereum, an EVM compatible Optimistic Rollup chain, into its L2 interoperability protocol.
Connext is a network that enables sending value and calling contracts across Ethereum-compatible chains and L2s. By adding support for Optimism, users will be able to transfer assets to/from Optimistic Ethereum directly from other L2s & sidechain systems without introducing any new trust assumptions, and without having to wait for one week when moving assets out of the Optimistic Ethereum mainnet.
Users can now head over to xpollinate.io and start crosschain transfers to/from Optimistic Ethereum with available supported assets (USDT/USDC/DAI/ETH).
About Connext
Connext is the interoperability protocol of L2 Ethereum.
Connext enables sending value and calling contracts across Ethereum-compatible chains and L2s. It is the only interoperability system that does this cheaply and quickly without introducing any new trust assumptions. Connext is aimed at developers who are looking to build bridges and other natively crosschain applications. To date, over $700m in transactions have crossed the network.
