The era of cross-chain being like a 'relay race' should come to an end. C weaves multiple chains into a routing network: intention → path planning → liquidity injection → verification and settlement, with the frontend only seeing 'transactions and receipts,' while the backend automatically selects routes with higher success rates and lower costs. The direct benefits are a decrease in failure rates, more controllable slippage, and the long-tail links can also stabilize.

The underlying layer uses lightweight clients and multi-signature to maintain security, and the witness, arbitration, and finality layers reduce single points of failure; the path layer comprehensively scores depth, congestion, and MEV risk, with dynamic retries and price limits to prevent funds in transit; the liquidity layer prepositions and fills gaps, reducing 'last-minute depth issues'; a unified SDK lowers access costs, and logs and receipts make every step traceable.

Evaluation suggestions: path success rate and end-to-end latency, duration in transit and slippage distribution, abnormal rollback time and cause classification, number of supported chains/applications and version coverage. Create a weekly report on path health and retry density, making it clear which segment has 'dropped the chain.'

Action items: frontend displays estimated path costs and success rates; whitelist and domain verification should be made visible; preset downgrade and split order strategies for long-tail paths. Interoperability is an engineering issue, not a slogan issue. #Chainbase @Chainbase Official $C
