The largest loss in the multi-chain ecosystem comes from "redundant construction": the same set of functions is repeatedly adapted on different chains, the same batch of liquidity is scattered across different pools, and the same type of users are forced to learn multiple sets of rules. The result is slower collaboration, fragmented experiences, and prolonged growth. The real value of cross-chain solutions is not just to allow assets to move, but to make movement easy enough that users almost no longer care which chain they are on.
The significance of hubs like BTTC lies in addressing complex issues such as validation, security, and failure recovery at the foundational level, enabling upper-layer applications to uniformly access cross-chain capabilities. For users, this means clearer paths and lower psychological costs; for developers, it translates to less adaptation burden and greater combinatorial space. When cross-chain interactions shift from "special operations" to "daily actions," the interactions between ecosystems will transition from sporadic to normal, and normalcy will bring about true network effects.
