In the Web3 world, cross-chain often means complexity, slowness, and insecurity. Those who have used it understand how many people are deterred by DeFi due to assets being 'stuck' on bridges, high transaction fees, and slow speeds. Cycle Network is systematically addressing these pain points.
Its goal is to create a 'no-bridge' cross-chain settlement layer that makes asset transfers as simple as within a chain. Whether you are using L1, L2, or non-EVM chains, you can achieve instant circulation on Cycle. This sounds like the future, but Cycle has already turned it into reality with its products.
Moreover, the mainnet has already launched, with a TVL exceeding 400 million USD, on-chain transactions surpassing 2.3 million, and a cooperative network covering over 20 top ecosystems, including Monad, Berachain, Symbiotic, and Ether.fi. Its C-end product, Golden Goose, is also very popular among users: over 20,000 paying users, a TVL exceeding 15 million USD, and a 30-day retention rate as high as 83%.
Why are so many people willing to use it? Because Cycle has transformed the complex cross-chain process into an effortless experience for users. You no longer need to worry about which chain you are using, nor do you have to worry about assets being 'stuck' on which network. You only need to perform an action once, and Cycle will handle all the underlying interactions for you.
This is the true power of chain abstraction—rather than optimizing, it reconstructs the underlying logic of consensus. Founder Robbie has said that Cycle never chases trends or relies on narratives. What they aim to create is the foundational settlement layer for Web3, an infrastructure capable of sustaining a cycle of over 10 years.
Such things are precisely worth looking ahead a little further.
