# Beamer Bridge: Enjoy Effortless Bridging Between EVM-compatible Rollups By [BitByte Crypto](https://paragraph.com/@bitbytecrypto) · 2023-02-12 --- Imagine getting exact amount without decimal while doing bridges! **Beamer Bridge** makes it possible and users can do bridging of ERC20 assets between EVM-compatible rollups without any decimal amount, just by paying 0.3% fees of the transfer amounts with blazing fast speed. Currently **Beamer doesn’t have any native token** and also having a **Beamer’s Quest Campaign On Galxe**. So possible retroactive airdrop for early users. ### So let’s deep dive into it with the following segments: > * **What’s Beamer Bridge?** > > * **How Does Beamer Bridge Work?** > > * **Partners & Backers** > > * **Beamer’s Token & Quest Campaign** > > * **Tutorial** > > * **Conclusion** > 🚨**Disclaimer:** You’ll interact with smart contracts, so be cautious on approval transaction or interacting with dApps or smart contracts. Also this is **Not a Financial Advice (NFA)** and invest which you can afford to lose after doing your own research (DYOR). 💭What’s Beamer Bridge? ----------------------- ![Beamer Bridge](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/02c08683df46bbf80a12fd25ec2eff70ed2ba1efa9162234329d0aeccc453bd7.png) Beamer Bridge Beamer Bridge enables direct ERC20 asset transfers between any two EVM compatible rollups, without transiting via Layer 1(L1). Right now, Beamer bridge is available on [**Optimisim**](https://www.optimism.io/), [**Arbitrum**](https://arbitrum.io/) and [**Boba**](https://boba.network/) mainnet. More network will be added in future. ### Advantages of Beamer Bridge: > * **Blazing Fast** > > * **Exact Amounts** > > * **Easy Fees Super** > > * **Simple Security of Ethereum L1** > So users can beam ERC20 assets between EVM compatible rollups with certainty, speed and security. 💭How Does Beamer Bridge Work? ------------------------------ There are two types of rollups: `optimistic rollups` & `zero-Knowledge rollups`. Beamer provides users with optimistic bridging services. Here’s how it works: > * Users request bridge service from one rollup (R1) to another rollup (R2) by sending tokens & service fees to Beamer Contract. > > * Agents settle the request by sending tokens to target rollup (R2) and claim the tokens & Fees From Beamer Contract on R1. > > * In case false claims made, escalation game (security mechanism) is initialed to penalize agents for making false claims. > **Beamer is fully decentralized because the core protocol and community team do not run agents.** 💭Partners & Backers -------------------- ![Beamer Bridge's Backers](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/6ef55b408f12bb5fb7e4ce024e3eac1f98d2ce129df9ccf2d805898f625aa5cb.png) Beamer Bridge's Backers Beamer bridge is backed by [Akta](https://atka.io), [Kindi Capital](https://kindi.capital/), [Alphemy Capital](https://alphemy.capital/), [Coinix Capital](https://coinix.capital/en/), [Parallel VC](https://www.parallelvc.xyz/), [Zee Prime Capital](https://zeeprime.capital/) ,Etiënne.
