Bridge landscape: ZK, IBC, messaging and other secure bridge designs
Thread85 words
Categorized list of bridging technologies seen as alternatives to committee-based multisig bridges, which have been prone to exploits: ZKP state verification, IBC-based, cross-chain messaging and others.
Key claims
Committee-based multisig bridges are not secure enough and have been historically exploited
bridges are a core component of a multichain future 馃敭
however, current committe-based multisig bridging solutions are not secure enough & have been historically prone to exploits 鈿狅笍
find my list of the most interesting bridging technologies that aim to change this below 馃憞
鈿欙笍 ZKP based state verification:
@SuccinctLabs' Telepathy bridge
@zkBridge
馃寪 IBC-based solutions:
@PolymerDAO
@labs_electron's zkIBC
@Amherst_Labs' Gereg猫 protocol
鈫旓笍 cross-chain messaging protocols
@LayerZero_Labs
@axelarcore
馃寜 others
@Hyperlane_xyz
@CatalystAMM
stay tuned for deep dives on some of the above mentioned protocols 馃憖
