Across

Across is a crosschain interoperability protocol powering fast, low-cost token transfers and swaps across 20+ EVM chains and Solana.

Developers integrate a single unified Swap API (plus embedded crosschain actions, gasless flows, and deposit tracking) to move native USDC, USDT, ETH, and other assets between Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, Polygon, Solana, and more. The protocol has facilitated over $36 billion in volume for 5M+ users. Across is a Paradigm portfolio company in the crypto-infrastructure sector.
