On deBridge, Xie said,

deBridge is more than just a bridge, it’s a cross-chain interoperability framework for blockchains, protocols, and applications. The protocol allows assets from different layers to be transferred in a smooth and seamless manner. Furthermore, because of their well-developed product design and architecture, their product iteration speed is much faster. Overall, we were very impressed with the deBridge team, their coding abilities, and their strict adherence to security measures.

deBridge founder, Alex Smirnov said,

Our core team has worked with Xie and the Huobi Ventures team for a long period of time and was impressed by their energy and ambition. We couldn’t be happier that they’ve decided to join deBridge. During our first conversation, the team quickly realised the complexity of the problems that deBridge is trying to solve. They posed the correct questions and made insightful observations about the multichain future.
