TL;DR
- CrossCurve unifies over $2 billion of Curve TVL into a single cross-chain liquidity layer, delivering 2–5 bps slippage on large trades.
- A multi-protocol Consensus Bridge secures transfers via LayerZero, Axelar, Wormhole, Router Protocol and Chainlink CCIP.
- A three-layer MetaLayer comprising Transport, Liquidity and Management provides modular, upgradeable infrastructure.
- RSquad Blockchain Lab led the TON integration, deploying on-chain modules and relayer agents.
Abstract
CrossCurve addresses fragmented DeFi liquidity by pooling all major Curve stable pools across supported chains into a single, global market. Built in partnership with Curve Finance and powered by Eywa’s multi-protocol Consensus Bridge, it offers users low-slippage cross-chain swaps, one-click token listings, and stacked yields via Curve, Convex, and CrossCurve incentives.
The Problem We’re Solving
Liquid capital is siloed on individual chains, forcing costly incentives and multi-hop transfers that suffer from high slippage, slow finality on optimistic bridges, and bridge-hack risks. Projects compete for TVL, yet users chasing yields face friction and security exposure whenever they move assets between networks.
System Overview
CrossCurve introduces a MetaLayer with three interconnected layers:
- Transport Layer – Consensus Bridge
- Locks assets on source chain and mints synthetic derivatives on the hub-chain.
- Parallel messaging through LayerZero, Axelar, Wormhole and Chainlink CCIP.
- Finalizes transfers only on multi-protocol consensus; mismatches trigger automatic refunds.
- Liquidity Layer
- Sonic hub-chain concentrates Curve’s stable liquidity for N²→2N efficiency gains.
- On-chain swaps via Curve AMM yield 2–5 bps slippage even on large volumes.
- Secure storage in audited Curve pools managing $2 billion+ TVL.
- Management Layer – CrossCurve DAO
- Decentralized governance via EYWA token and ve(3,3) bribery model
- Incentives directed to high-value pools, driving activity and deeper liquidity
Key Components
- Consensus Bridge Contracts on source and hub chains.
- Synthetic Derivatives of Curve LPs (3pool, 3crypto, crvUSD, etc.).
- Universal Tokens (xfrxUSD, xfrxETH, scBTC) for on-chain swaps.
- Curve AMM Pools on Sonic for low-slippage routing.
- CrossCurve DAO managing governance, upgrades and bribery incentives.
Cross-Chain Transfer Flow
- Lock & Mint user locks asset in Consensus Bridge, mint on Sonic.
- Swap to Universal Token synthetic ↔ universal via Curve pool.
- Swap to Target Synthetic universal ↔ synthetic for destination chain.
- Burn & Unlock synthetic burns on Sonic, original asset unlocks on destination.
Value Proposition
- Capital Efficiency: 2–5 bps slippage with minimal TVL requirement.
- Cost Savings & Rapid Scaling: one hub-chain replaces N² bridges.
- Cross-Chain Listings: list any token on all chains against crvUSD, WBTC, WETH, LPs.
- Yield Stacking: earn rewards from CrossCurve, Curve, Convex simultaneously.
- Enterprise-Grade Security: multi-protocol consensus and audited core.
Governance & Upgrades
All CrossCurve contracts deploy as upgradable proxies. A timelocked N-of-M multisig governed by CrossCurve DAO enables safe patches and feature enhancements without hard forks required.
Ecosystem Impact
CrossCurve unlocks:
- Global Token Launches in one transaction.
- Cross-Chain DeFi Primitives: lending, staking, vaults with unified liquidity.
- Seamless LP Migration: chase yields without impermanent loss or manual bridges.
Some Thoughts
CrossCurve transcends “bridging.” It delivers a fully permissionless MetaLayer where liquidity, messaging, and governance converge. With TON support by RSquad Blockchain Lab and Eywa’s Consensus Bridge, CrossCurve sets a new standard for secure, efficient cross-chain DeFi.
