In an accompanying blog post, ChainPort stated that the integration “opens doors for developers and web3 projects, enabling them to smoothly bridge tokens to and from the IOTA ecosystem via ChainPort.”
Interoperability is becoming a key requirement for any chain as users seek diversity and alternatives. Cross-chain bridging has emerged as the best solution currently. This is where ChainPort excels, offering users all common bridging methods, from wrapped asset bridging to native token bridging. The platform is also connected to several other bridges, ensuring that users get the most efficient routes by price, security and speed.
IOTA EVM, which is the network’s smart contract framework, is the latest to join this ecosystem. It has become a critical cog of Dominik Schiener’s vision for IOTA (as he discussed in this interview with Crypto News Flash), facilitating up to 700 transactions per second. This allows it to anchor a wide range of Web3 applications, from gaming and SocialFi to NFTs and DeFi.
ChainPort noted:
By integrating IOTA EVM into ChainPort’s ecosystem, users gain access to a robust and scalable smart contract platform with feeless transactions. This integration expands the possibilities for dApps and enhances the overall web3 ecosystem’s interoperability and utility.
ChainPort’s integration comes just days after Goldsky made a similar announcement. Goldsky is a data solutions provider and operates one of the industry’s leading indexers. With the integration, Goldsky allows IOTA EVM users to build cutting-edge dApps with>
