Join hosts Ellie and Alysia as they discuss the realities of cross-chain bridges, including looking at which are the most used, crypto UX, security tradeoffs, etc. — and then put several bridges to the test in a live demo, bridging assets across Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base.

Key topics covered include:

  • Speed and fee comparisons across different bridge types
  • Bridge architectures: canonical, intent-based, and externally verified
  • Security tradeoffs between bridge designs
  • Emerging trends: intent standardization and ZK bridges
  • Current state of bridging UX and areas for improvement

The live demo segment didn't make for great audio content, but you if you'd like to watch them test drive these bridges, you can find the video on Composable's YouTube channel at youtube.com/@composablepod.

Essential listening for anyone looking to understand blockchain interoperability and cross-chain asset transfers.

Composable is a bi-weekly podcast exploring crypto's building blocks. Hosted by Alysia and Ellie, and brought to you by Espresso.
