- Uniswap has launched permissionless bridging across nine networks to enable smooth asset transfers.
- The permissionless bridge, powered by Across Protocol, improves transaction speed and security.
- Users can now transfer ETH, ARB, and stablecoins without relying on external services.
Uniswap has officially launched its long-awaited permissionless bridging feature, allowing users to move assets seamlessly across nine blockchain networks directly from the Uniswap Interface and the Uniswap Wallet.
This functionality, powered by the innovative Across Protocol, removes many of the pain points associated with cross-chain transactions—such as lengthy waits and security concerns—by streamlining the transfer process.
Across Protocol stands out as the only cross-chain intents protocol currently in production, using a decentralized network of liquidity pools and relayers. This infrastructure enables permissionless bridging, increasing both speed and security for users while avoiding reliance on centralized intermediaries.
Smooth multi-chain experience for Uniswap users
With this rollout, decentralized exchange users can perform cross-chain transfers involving native assets like ETH and ARB as well as popular stablecoins. Supported networks include Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, zkSync, Base, Zora, Blast, OP Mainnet, and World Chain.
The in-app bridging feature responds to one of the most requested upgrades from the Uniswap community, reflecting strong demand for a more integrated cross-chain experience.
Uniswap Labs highlights its commitment to nurturing a multi-chain ecosystem, noting that more than six million users already interact across multiple chains. Until now, bridging assets typically required external services that often presented unfamiliar interfaces and long transaction times.
Uniswap’s solution is designed to simplify this process, allowing transfers to complete in seconds rather than minutes. The new bridging capability is part of a broader vision to deliver a seamless multi-chain experience for users.
The company recently introduced UniChain, a new layer-2 solution aimed at addressing DeFi challenges, further reinforcing its dedication to innovation in cross-chain liquidity. As Uniswap continues to roll out new features, users are encouraged to explore enhanced platform capabilities by downloading the Uniswap Wallet or accessing the Uniswap Interface.
This development marks a meaningful step toward making decentralized finance more accessible and efficient, improving convenience and security for users conducting cross-chain transactions.
