<p><em>TL;DR Wanchain launches XFlows on another Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solution. Native-to-native BTC, ETH, USDC and USDT cross-chain transformations are now live on Metis!</em></p><p>Ethereum Layer-2 solutions have become a vital component of the blockchain industry as Ethereum’s scalability issues and high transaction costs have proven to be an impediment to the widespread adoption of public blockchain networks. One such scaling solution, focused on creating an affordable and scalable environment for apps and businesses, is <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a>.</p><p><a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a>, an optimistic rollup, bundles multiple transactions into a single batch, while assuming validity, and only records the minimum viable transaction data to Ethereum. Computation is handled off-chain. Notably, transacting on <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a> is the cheapest amongst competing Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solutions. In the future, <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a> plans to introduce Hybrid Rollups, which combine optimistic rollup architecture with zero-knowledge proofs.</p><p>Innovative scaling solutions are a perfect match for innovative interoperability solutions. As such, it is with great pleasure that <a href="https://www.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wanchain</a>, the global leader for blockchain interoperability solutions, announces the expansion of <a href="https://bridge.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XFlows</a> to <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a>.</p><h3 id="strong-what-is-wanchain-s-xflows-strong"><strong>What is Wanchain’s XFlows?</strong></h3><p><a href="https://www.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wanchain</a>’s <a href="https://bridge.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XFlows</a> is a decentralised cross-chain solution that enables native-to-native cross-chain transformations for assets that exist natively on multiple chains. <a href="https://bridge.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XFlows</a> leverages the power of <a href="https://www.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wanchain</a>’s cross-chain bridges to provide easy, non-custodial transformations between chains without the need for centralised exchanges.</p><h3 id="strong-about-xflows-on-metis-strong"><strong>About XFlows on Metis</strong></h3><p>Like Arbitrum and Optimism, <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a> is an Ethereum scaling solution that settles transactions on Ethereum. As such, it inherits Ethereum’s existing security apparatus. ETH bridged to <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a> using the official <a href="https://bridge.metis.io/home" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis Bridge</a> is considered equivalent to the native ETH on Ethereum. The same applies to other assets like WBTC, USDC and USDC.</p><h3 id="strong-what-assets-and-routes-are-currently-available-on-metis-strong"><strong>What assets and routes are currently available on Metis?</strong></h3><p>BTC, ETH, USDC and USDT <a href="https://bridge.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XFlows</a> are all live on <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a>. These are supported by direct bridges connecting <a href="https://metis.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Metis</a> to Arbitrum, Astar, Avalanche, Bitcoin, BNB Chain, Ethereum, OKT Chain, Optimism, Polygon, Tron and the <a href="https://www.wanchain.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Wanchain</a> L1.</p><p><img
