RelayProtocol is a decentralized exchange (DEX) known for enabling fast, low-cost cross-chain interoperability, allowing secure and efficient transfer of assets and data across multiple blockchain networks.[1][2]

[edit]

Relay Protocol is a blockchain interoperability protocol designed to enable the transfer of assets and data across multiple blockchain networks. It operates as a cross-chain bridge, connecting over 40 blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and various Layer 2 solutions. The protocol uses a relay network consisting of smart contracts and relayers nodes or agents that execute cross-chain transactions on behalf of users. Users submit transaction requests, which relayers process by validating and settling the transfers across different chains, ensuring compatibility between heterogeneous blockchain architectures. The system prioritizes efficient transaction settlement, often on a low-cost Layer 2 chain, to reduce gas fees and enhance speed. Relay Protocol supports functionalities like token bridging and swaps but is primarily focused on enabling seamless communication and interoperability across disparate blockchain ecosystems.[3][4][5]
