Bridging Basics
No, it doesn’t. The Sophon Bridge is our canonical bridge, the official one connecting Sophon to Ethereum. Some tokens might use LayerZero, and Sophon also supports them.
Yes, but it depends:
- Assets that exist on Ethereum can be bridged natively.
- Assets on protocols like LayerZero or Wormhole must use their respective bridges instead of Sophon’s Bridge, otherwise two versions of the asset will end up on Sophon’s side.
- Sophon-native assets such as MUP can’t be bridged to Ethereum using Sophon’s native bridge. They can only be bridged if they were created using some specific protocol (like LayerZero).
Support for these networks is already available on Layerswap. As Sophon grows, more tokens, chains, and protocols will be added.
Fees and Security
It depends on the token:
- For the Sophon Bridge, only standard gas fees on L1 and L2 apply.
- When it comes to other protocols like LayerZero or Layerswap, additional fees may apply.
The native Sophon Bridge is as secure as the protocol itself, making it one of the safest components of our system. Sophon is built on a widely tested tech stack and reinforced with ZK proofs, so it’s very secure.
Processes and Third-Party Support
This delay ensures transaction batches are finalized on Ethereum, preventing invalid withdrawals if the chain state rolls back. The wait time will soon drop to 3 hours.
For more info, see ZKsync’s Official Docs.
Sophon has partnered with Layerswap and trusts in their infrastructure and security. With this in mind, third-party bridges are fully responsible for maintaining the integrity of their operations. In the event of any issues, we will work with these providers to address the situation and arrive at a resolution as soon as possible.
