🌉 #Bridges101: How to cross blockchains securely.
Want to move tokens from one network to another?
You will need a blockchain bridge.
📌 What are bridges?
🔹 Protocols that allow transferring assets between different blockchains
🔹 E.g., moving USDC from Ethereum to Arbitrum or BNB Chain
🔹 The original token is locked, and an equivalent is issued on the new network
💡 Why use a bridge?
✅ Cheaper fees
✅ Access to exclusive dApps on another network
✅ Better multichain experience
⚠️ Cautions:
❌ Some bridges have already suffered multimillion-dollar attacks
❌ Never send tokens directly without checking compatibility
❌ Only use secure and audited bridges
✅ Trustworthy examples:
🔸 Wormhole
🔸 Stargate
🔸 Synapse
🔸 Binance Bridge (native to Binance)
📲 Tip: always confirm if the token on the new network is accepted by dApps and wallets before moving.
➡️ In the crypto universe, knowing how to cross well is as important as knowing how to invest.
