Across protocol is a novel bridging method that combines an optimistic oracle, bonded relayers and single-sided liquidity pools to provide decentralized instant transactions from rollup chains to Ethereum mainnet.

Assets are bridged and available for use on mainnet almost instantly.

Powered By UMA protocol. Transfers are secured by UMA's Optimistic Oracle, which is audited by OpenZeppelin and trusted by top teams to protect hundreds of millions of dollars in value.

Relayers and liquidity providers are compensated with fees from users initiating transfers, but this fee is less than any other solution on the market.

The launch of an Across token will grow and unite the Across community, incentivize liquidity providers, increase awareness of Across, and further the mission of being the fastest and cheapest L2 bridge. This proposal outlines a token launch plan.
