Connecting blockchains for full interoperability
Introduction
Revold Cross-Chain Bridge is a liquidity-pool-based, security-focused bridge and (in the future) community-governed bridging protocol to connect an increasing number of blockchains and, eventually, all major blockchains with each other. The protocol incentivizes providing liquidity for both projects and end users as well as provides a seamless bridging experience for tokens and NFTs – by bringing fee participation, yield farming, self-listings for projects and building other innovative features into the world of bridges.
As a next step, Revold Cross-Chain Bridge will offer interoperable Smart Contracts for cross-chain calls. The goal is that third-party developers will be able to interact with the bridging Smart Contracts in any of their dApps, network-independent, for any use case. Imagine if you could connect your Ethereum Wallet to a Solana dApp, or use your Binance Smart Chain tokens on a Polygon DEX, or pay with your Binance Smart Chain tokens in an e-commerce or onsite shop that only accepts payments on the Ethereum Blockchain. Or play Polygon-based play-to-earn games with your NFTs being in your (insert any network here) Wallet.
This is the vision, as this is where crypto mass-adoption will eventually come from. Blockchains need to be connected and the user should not need to worry where the tokens are or go to – users should just connect the preferred wallet of choice and pay/play/trade/etc in any dApp/network seamlessly. The magic behind this is the bridging layer – this key component has been building for years now and is at the forefront of development.
Why Revold Cross-Chain Bridge?
Bridging fungible or non-fungible tokens is a laborious process. There are a variety of bridges that focus on connecting selected networks or support only specific tokens. As a user, you need to know which token you want to move over which bridge to another network. The Revold Cross-Chain Bridge has an ambitious goal: It should be possible to move any token to almost any network.
Revold Cross-Chain Bridge will attract and incentivize all players to participate in the ecosystem. Similar to projects launching tokens on Uniswap or a DEX, communities and/or creators will be able to add their own token via the Revold Cross-Chain Bridge intuitively and permissionless, benefiting from greater accessibility and security. Meanwhile, projects along with their communities will be incentivized to provide liquidity with a fee-participation incentive.
There have been a couple of early efforts to connect blockchains. The following are the main issues which were identified:
- Bridge contracts require a minting permission (increased hack risk)
- Lack of decentralization
- Missing self-listings
- No yield for liquidity that projects provide in bridges
- No community-sourced bridge liquidity
- Missing Stablecoin support
How Revold Cross-Chain Bridge works
Revold Cross-Chain Bridge solves the issues above through the following key attributes:
- (Fungible) Revold Token bridge using liquidity pools with a flexible deposit & claim approach and a limited hack risk compared to bridges with minter roles
- Revold Bridging support for ETH, BNB, MATIC, AVAX networks
- Revold collections for NFTs
- Permissionless self-listings of (fungible) tokens
- Incentive for projects to use Revold Cross-Chain Bridge as they earn yield on the liquidity they provide themselves through fee-participation in the Liquidity Mining Pools.
- Incentives for community-sourced Revold bridge liquidity as everyone can earn part of the protocol incentive or bridging fees from the Liquidity Mining Pools or for Revold token holders, they can access the more attractive Reward Pools.
- Flexible and expandable concept to achieve decentralization right from the beginning.
