Rubic’s SDK Interoperability Expands to 7 New Blockchains!

Recently, we completed Rubic’s SDK integration into https://app.rubic.exchange/, and our team continues to build an even more stable, convenient, and fast solution for cross-chain transactions.

Today, we are happy to announce that the overall number of blockchains, integrated into Rubic, is now 13!

Rubic’s SDK already supports the following blockchains:

  • Ethereum
  • BNB Chain
  • Polygon
  • Fantom
  • Avalanche
  • Arbitrum

By expanding the list of available networks and bridges, Rubic has increased liquidity and the overall number of networks is up to 13, with the addition of 7 new blockchains:

  • Optimism
  • Cronos
  • OKExChain
  • Gnosis (xDAI)
  • Fuse
  • Moonbeam
  • Celo

​​These new blockchain integrations will also include new DEXs on these networks. This integration will provide our users with an opportunity to implement On-Chain and Cross-Chain swaps with the best rates.

  • Moonbeam — BeamSwap & StellaSwap
  • Celo — UbeSwap
  • Cronos — CronaSwap
  • Gnosis — HoneySwap
  • Fuse — SushiSwap

In addition to new chains, we are also adding 13 new bridges, ensuring our users get the best rates for swaps on Rubic:

Connext, Multichain, Hyphen, Y Pool, Polygon PoS, Optimism Bridge, deBridge, Across, Avalanche Bridge, Arbitrum Bridge, Optimism Gateway, XY Finance, and Ethereum Bridge.

Temporarily, our SDK does not support non-EVM chains like NEAR and Solana as well as the EVM-compatible Aurora and Telos networks. This means that these networks will not be available on Rubic for a certain period of time. During this time, Rubic will work diligently on integrating them into our SDK, by introducing new providers. This will significantly enhance liquidity on these networks versus what it used to be in the past.

Now, Rubic has more than 500 new tokens available which allow users to have even more options for swapping tokens on Rubic, and projects who set up Rubic’s SDK or widget can get it updated via Rubic’s API, and be able to use all of these networks and bridges as well!

We are very thankful to our partner, LI.FI, whom we have integrated into Rubic’s SDK, and it has made these improvements possible.

We are thrilled to continually expand Rubic’s ecosystem with fast, innovative, and secure blockchains.

Let’s explore some of the new additions!

CELO

The world’s first carbon-negative Layer-1 with a climate-change objective native to its design, currencies, and reserve.

Celo’s aim is to empower anyone with a smartphone all around the world to have access to financial services, send money to phone numbers, and pay merchant users on a decentralized platform that is operated by a community of users. To achieve this, Celo provides a complete stack of a new L1 blockchain network, core smart contracts that run on that blockchain and enable end-user applications.

The Layer 1 Celo Blockchain maintains full EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatibility for smart contracts. However, it uses a Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) consensus mechanism rather than Proof of Work, and has different block format, transaction format and gas payment and pricing mechanisms.

Celo DEX Integrated into Rubic:

UbeSwap — A decentralized exchange and automated market maker protocol for Celo assets.

Top Celo DApps:

Ubeswap

Mento-fi

OPTIMISM

Optimism is a lightning-fast Layer 2 solution built in Ethereum that uses a transaction execution method called optimistic rollups. Optimism has a thriving ecosystem that does not renounce Ethereum’s decentralization or security for improved scalability. Instead of running all transaction data on the Ethereum network, Optimism puts all transaction data on-chain and runs computation off-chain, increasing Ethereum’s transaction per second and decreasing transaction fees. Bringing cheaper and faster trades to Rubic!

Optimism has been live on public mainnet for over a year and has about $315,000,000 TVL, according to DeFi Lama.

Top Optimism DApps:

Uniswap V3

Gelato Network

Synthetix

CRONOS

Cronos is the first EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain network built on the Cosmos SDK, supported by Crypto.com, Crypto.org and more than 250 app developers and partners. Their mission is to make it easy and safe for the next billion crypto users to adopt Web3, with a focus on DeFi and GameFi.

Cronos has already skyrocketed to the top 7 position among all chains by total value locked (TVL) and is used by >800,000 users, growing at 7% per month. Cronos is powered by the Cronos ($CRO) cryptocurrency, which powers an ecosystem of more than 50 million users worldwide.

DEX Integrated to Rubic:

CronaSwap — This DEX aims to become a benchmark for DEX platforms. CronaSwap wants to take on the mantle in becoming the leading DEX platform on the market for token swaps.

Top Cronos DApps:

VVS Finance

MM Finance

Ebisu’s Bay

OKExCHAIN

Backed by OKX, OKC is a decentralized, borderless, blockchain-based ecosystem for exchanging value, aiming to promote the development of large-scale commercial applications based on blockchain technology.

OKT is the native token of the OKC ecosystem, providing immediate utility and benefits — such as voting rights, staking privileges and transaction fee payments — for decentralized exchanges and other DeFi applications built on the network.

Top OKExChain DApps:

Crypto Blades

Cherry Swap

Transit Swap

GNOSIS

Gnosis Chain (formerly xDAI Chain) is a blockchain aiming to provide fast and inexpensive transactions. The network has EVM compatibility and is often used as a stable payment system due to its use of the xDAI stablecoin as means of payment for transactions, payments, and fees.

DEX Integrated to Rubic:

Honeyswap — A decentralized exchange built on the Gnosis Chain, this enables users to experience fast and secure transactions with incredibly low fees.

Top Gnosis DApps:

UMA

1Inch

SushiSwap

FUSE

Fuse is a decentralized blockchain-powered platform and technology stack whose goal is to enable genuine mass adoption of crypto payments and decentralized finance (DeFi).

The project was launched in 2019 by a team formerly involved in building the Colu project aimed at bringing local currencies to the blockchain.

DEX Integrated to Rubic:

SushiSwap — Needs no introduction!

Top Fuse DApps:

Good Dollar

Fuse Cash

Fuse Staking

MOONBEAM

Moonbeam is an Ethereum-compatible smart contract platform on the Polkadot network that makes it easy to build natively interoperable applications. This Ethereum compatibility allows developers to deploy existing Solidity smart contracts and DApp frontends to Moonbeam with minimal changes.

Following Moonriver’s tremendous success on Kusama as the most active deployment destination for over 80 DApps, Moonbeam benefits from the shared security of the Polkadot relay chain and integrations with other chains that are connected to Polkadot.

DEXs Integrated to Rubic:

BeamSwap — Token swap works as peer-to-peer trading on the Moonbeam network. It’s enabled through automated market-making (AMM) processes and benefits from supply liquidity. This makes swapping on Beamswap fast, affordable and easy, as it connects directly to the user wallet.

StellaSwap — The first and leading Moonbeam DEX that offers an integrated gateway to the DeFi world. Users can swap, earn, yield farm, bridge assets, explore new projects and engage in NFT trading all from a single unified platform. StellaSwap’s products are structured in such a way that facilitates decentralized governance of STELLA holders, while continuing to innovate on the collective foundations by design.
