Across The Cryptoverse #45 - Egg Hunt, Linea And Polygon zkEVM

(Edited)

Across V3 is the first intents-driven interoperability protocol and it will deliver a level of cross-chain UX that developers and their users demand as crypto enters a complex multichain economy. Ground-breaking technology.

The Across Bridge has expanded to Linea, making the zkEVM solution and its ecosystem’s applications more accessible and expand Across’ presence on Layer 2. Linea users and developers can now benefit from Across’ intents-based framework and Across users can easily access one of the most promising zkEVMs.

Linea is a burgeoning Layer 2 solution developed by ConsenSys, the Ethereum development company behind products like MetaMask and Infura. Do you know that ConsenSys spent almost two years on Layer2 research before launching Linea? Unlike many of the earliest Layer 2 rollups, Linea is a zkEVM offering EVM compatibility with Zero-Knowledge Proofs.

Fragmentation and UX issues have been the biggest costs of Layer 2 scalability. With Across, Linea can remove user friction due to the system’s intents-based design. This means that Across opens up new possibilities for the Linea ecosystem. What else is on the pipeline? The Polygon zkEVM proposal is on forum, then Scroll and Blast to be added this summer!

Let's talk about crypto history, as this transfer may have been the first one to use Across Bridge to transfer crypto to Linea! It took only four seconds, and this tweet went viral. Super-speed checked! ACX rebate check! Not only this cross-chain transfer was nearly-instant, but I also received ACX rebate that made the bridging even cheaper!

Moving away from Linea, Polygon zkEVM, Scroll and many other chains... to events and celebrations! We hosted a 72 hours egg hunt this Easter, with over 50 eggs dropped randomly in Discord. Each claimed egg had a value set at 3 ACX, and the best egg hunters were awarded extra tokens.

The quest was fun and entertaining, considering that the eggs where shared at random times, in random channels, by random people. It kept us busy over the weekend and I am looking forward to Easter Egg Hunt 2.0 in 2025!

With V3, Across introduced new features that transform the Layer 2 landscape. Across+ lets users request a transfer “+ action” at a destination with hooks! Across+ is bundling bridge action(s) within a dapp, this allows the withdrawal of assets on the origin chain and pulls that capital to your protocol's home chain. Not only does this promote onboarding, the cross-chain UX is seamless for end users.

This aspects were also integrated in the Easter Egg Hunt, and all rangers were challenged with the ultimate egg search. The fastest correct answers got boosted points in the leaderboard. How many eggs you found in this image?

We wrapped up the event on Monday morning, and the Event Manager tipped all participants with something sweeter than chocolate eggs! Everyone received $ACX tokens, according to the place in the leaderboard and the number of eggs found during the competition.

Christina topped the hunt and the prize was a full basket of ACX. Legend was second, then Byron and Smarty... all with lots of eggs found during the event. This was another fun activity delivered for the Across Discord members. There's no better time to explore interoperability powered by intents!
