TopPointAI

TopPointAI differentiates itself by breaking the sound barrier, allowing for cross-chain swaps that are not constrained by the speed of messaging protocols like LayerZero.

In the past, cross-chain solutions were defined by costly and inefficient design. All blockchains are technically hostile environments for order books, forcing developers to build out convoluted systems that are slow, expensive, and lack security. Legacy cross-chain technologies rely on a monolithic centralized approach, where the same team manages both liquidity and the off-chain transaction verification system. This unfortunately introduces significant security risk, making it dangerous to store assets inside. In the past five years, pool-based bridge exploits have resulted in just over $2.8 billion in losses - a massive and unforgivable amount in our industry.

The first step towards a meaningful solution came in the form of messaging protocols. Messaging protocols, such as LayerZero, offer a significant improvement by providing cheap, secure cross-chain data solutions. Their tight focus enables modular architectures, allowing transaction verification to be outsourced, decoupling liquidity management from the messaging layer. For users, this means faster, cheaper and more secure transactions, at a speed not seen before.
