Chainflip

Chainflip is a decentralised, permissionless cross-chain protocol for native asset swaps and cross-chain lending. It lets users and integrators swap and borrow against native assets such as BTC, ETH, SOL, USDC, USDT, TRX, and DOT across chains without wrapped assets, traditional bridges, or centralised custody. The protocol runs as a Proof-of-Stake MPC network of roughly 150 validators securing a fully on-chain trading system built on an application-specific State Chain and a just-in-time (JIT) AMM liquidity design. Developers integrate via the typed @chainflip/sdk JavaScript SDK and the Broker / State Chain JSON-RPC interfaces to fetch quotes, request deposit addresses, encode vault swaps, and route swaps for broker commission.

Chainflip is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Crypto, Blockchain, DeFi, and Cross-Chain.

Chainflip’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, engineering blog, changelog, CLI, sandbox, and 14 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/chainflip: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
