Infrastructure & Tools
We created a bridge between the LUKSO and Ethereum networks and prepared a swapper which can become a decentralized exchange in the future for the LUKSO network.
Project details
The SigmaSwap Bridge is an application that serves as a link between the LUKSO and Ethereum networks. Our app is designed to unlock new possibilities for LYX coin holders, allowing them to tap into the robust DeFi ecosystem of Ethereum.
Key Features:
Token Conversion: SigmaSwap Bridge allows users to lock their native LYX coins from the LUKSO Network into a smart contract. In return, users receive an equivalent amount of wrapped LYX (wLYX) tokens on the Ethereum Network, enabling them to leverage Ethereum's extensive DeFi offerings.
Flexible Wallet Options: The application supports a Universal Profile browser extension for LUKSO users and is compatible with popular Web3 wallets on Ethereum, such as Metamask. This dual-wallet functionality ensures a user-friendly experience across both networks.
Reversibility: The bridge isnβt just a one-way street; it also facilitates the reverse process. Users can 'burn' their wLYX tokens via SigmaSwap Bridge to receive an equal number of LYX coins back on the LUKSO Network, maintaining the integrity and balance of value transfer.
Cross-Blockchain Value Transfer: By bridging these two networks, SigmaSwap Bridge opens up a corridor for value transfer, enhancing liquidity and enabling participation in trading and investment opportunities that were previously inaccessible to LYX holders.
Impact and Benefits:
Expanding DeFi Access: LYX coin holders can now directly engage with Ethereum's DeFi ecosystem, participating in trading, lending, borrowing, and various other financial activities.
Enhanced Liquidity: The bridge facilitates increased liquidity for LYX coins, creating more dynamic and responsive market conditions.
Innovation in Interoperability: SigmaSwap Bridge stands as a testament to the evolving interoperability in blockchain technology, paving the way for more integrated and efficient digital asset ecosystems.
SigmaSwap Bridge is not just a tool for token exchange; it's a gateway to new financial horizons, blending the unique features of the LUKSO Network with the expansive opportunities of the Ethereum blockchain.
