The Lynx Testnet, the second testnet iteration of the Catalyst Protocol, has achieved remarkable milestones, registering a staggering $200 billion in transaction volume and over 600,000 swaps across more than 200,000 unique wallets! As we reflect on these significant achievements of Lynx, we are eagerly anticipating the launch

Arbitrary Messaging Bridges (AMBs) play an integral role in the cross-chain world, operating as communication pathways connecting different blockchains. These bridges need help from relayers to actually deliver messages from one blockchain to another. However, there's a problem. The way relayers are rewarded for their work isn'

Catalyst is thrilled to announce a strategic integration with Wormhole, enhancing our capabilities in facilitating seamless cross-chain swaps between native assets. Wormhole, a leading arbitrary messaging bridge (AMB), empowers blockchain developers to securely and effortlessly facilitate the flow of data and value across networks. As a premier cross-chain interoperability protocol,

In the vast and evolving landscape of cross-chain, all cross-chain projects are working towards the same end goal: allow individuals to access cross-chain state in the easiest manner possible. Said differently, individuals (and entities) have “intents” that span multiple domains, and they need infrastructure in order to allow them to

Catalyst is back with a bang! Brace yourselves for our most monumental feature to date: Deposits into Catalyst Pools. That's right – now you can dive into Catalyst's cross-chain pools, earn yields from pool volume, and enjoy the flexibility of managing your assets like never before. Empowering

In our previous article in this series, we discussed various metrics that LPs can employ to estimate the profitability of providing liquidity to AMM pools. This enables them to fine-tune their LPing strategies for a better net return in their portfolios. We also discussed how a metric like Impermanent loss

Hey, fellow Cats! We're excited to unveil yet another game-changing feature that brings even more power to your Catalyst experience. Allow us to introduce the "Pool Overview Page" – your gateway to exploring all available pools within the Catalyst Protocol, conveniently accessible through the Catalyst UI. A

Today, the Cata Labs team is excited to announce the first ever live corridor between a Cosmos rollup and an Ethereum rollup. Catalyst has been deployed on inEVM testnet, an EVM-compatible rollup on Injective in collaboration with Caldera, and a cross-chain pool has been connected between inEVM and Scroll Sepolia

Catalyst is a cross-chain AMM that facilitates atomic swaps between native assets on different blockchains. Catalyst can be deployed on any chain and allows to source liquidity from any other connected ecosystem such as Ethereum, Cosmos and L2s. But how exactly does Catalyst allow for atomic cross-chain swaps of native

Catalyst is back, and this time, we're making a splash in the world of cross-chain liquidity like never before. Brace yourselves for the exciting announcement that's set to take your DeFi experience to new heights – Catalyst is now integrating with the Omni Network! With this integration,

In the near future, the number of chains will grow at an unprecedented pace–largely driven by modular rollup frameworks such as OP Stack by Optimism. These innovative frameworks grant developers the power to reimagine the on-chain user experience by crafting dedicated domains tailored for specific use cases. However, amid

Introducing Catalyst, the cross-chain Automated Market Maker (AMM) meticulously crafted for the multi-chain landscape. Catalyst addresses the pressing issue of cross-chain interoperability by establishing a permissionless, unified liquidity layer that any chain or rollup can seamlessly adopt. Our mission at Catalyst is to shape a borderless Web3, where users effortlessly

The future will have millions of chains, enabled by rollup frameworks like Arbitrum Orbit. These infrastructure innovations are enabling developers to reimagine the on-chain user experience from the ground-up. However, while rollup frameworks are making it easier to launch a dedicated rollup, developers and users still face the problem of

A few months ago, we unveiled the Unit of Liquidity whitepaper, a comprehensive dive into the mathematical theory that powers the Catalyst Protocol. The Unit of Liquidity is Catalyst’s superpower. It allows Catalyst to be capital efficient, easy to use, secure and trust-minimised by design. One of Catalyst'
