Blockchain & Infrastructure
Also: cross-chain bridge
Bridge
Infrastructure that transfers assets or data between two separate blockchains.
A blockchain bridge locks or burns assets on one chain and mints equivalent representations on another, enabling cross-chain asset movement. Bridges are critical DeFi infrastructure but have been the vector for some of the largest hacks in crypto history — Ronin, Wormhole, and Nomad among them — because they hold large, concentrated pools of assets in custody while managing complex cross-chain state synchronization.
