We’re entering the post-chain era.
Users shouldn’t need to care whether an app runs on Ethereum, Bitcoin, Cosmos, or Polkadot.
That’s exactly what Wanchain is building, a true chain abstraction layer powered by
$WAN .
Nearly 50 blockchains connected.
$1.6B+ lifetime cross-chain volume.
$1M–$2M in daily usage.
7+ years. Zero exploits.
While $ATOM and $DOT focus on ecosystem-bound interoperability, and $LINK or $AXL compete in messaging and routing, Wanchain quietly connects both EVM and non-EVM chains under one decentralized infrastructure layer.
Bitcoin, Tron, Cosmos, XRP, Cardano, Polkadot and Dozens of EVM chains.
All accessible without managing multiple bridges or wrapped assets.
Real usage is already happening:
• 20 BTC ($2M) bridged in a single transaction
• 40+ chains supported for bridging
• 20+ chains for native-to-native swaps via XFlows
• 25M+ WAN staked in PoS nodes
• 35M+ WAN locked in bridge nodes
This isn’t experimental. It’s battle-tested infrastructure.
And
$WAN sits at the center of it all.
Every transaction on Wanchain L1 requires
$WAN .
WAN secures cross-chain transfers as collateral.
Bridge fees are converted into WAN via the Convert n’ Burn system.
10% of collected fees are permanently burned.
If burn overtakes emissions, WAN turns deflationary.
Staking 10,000 WAN runs a bridge node.
xWAN staking offers up to 80% discount on bridge fees.
Yield flows from real bridge activity, not just emissions.
Zoom out and look at the competitive field:
$RUNE focuses on AMM swaps.
$BNB operates ecosystem-bound bridges.
$NEAR and $SUI integrate via third-party infra.
$ICP uses chain-key signatures.
Wanchain has been building decentralized cross-chain standards since 2017 — including the first decentralized BTC ↔ ETH bridge and industry standards with the Ethereum Enterprise Alliance and Linux Foundation.
Even NFT bridging is live across Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, XDC, with Cardano next.
This is infrastructure that quietly powers multichain applications.
