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'

The Catalyst: Lynx Testnet is live! Dive into the future of cross-chain liquidity with the full might of Catalyst. Today, we are officially launching access to the first full version of the Catalyst testnet, affectionately named Lynx Testnet! This is the first opportunity that the community will have to use

In DeFi, new innovations are forced to arise in order to operate within the constrained environment of on-chain block space. One of the most notable advancements has been the emergence and progress of Automated Market Makers (AMMs), which have transformed the way we trade and provide liquidity in DeFi. However,

Reflecting on the past three months since the launch of the Catalyst Testnet Demo, we're thrilled to have provided a glimpse into the remarkable capabilities of Catalyst. The Demo boldly introduced the concept of multi-chain pools, enabling users to simultaneously interact with native assets across different blockchains. A

Today, we’re launching a crucial piece of Catalyst’s community infrastructure — Catalyst Missions! As we expanded our testnet offerings, it became evident that our community needed a consolidated space to interact with these missions without being overwhelmed or disoriented. Enter Catalyst Missions. The idea was simple: build a one-stop-shop

Note: This is a summary of Jim's talk at Modular Summit 2023 in Paris. Watch it here. In the dynamic world of blockchain technology, the concept of cross-chain interoperability has emerged as a critical piece of the puzzle. At the heart of this concept lie the unsung heroes

Catalyst, the permissionless cross-chain liquidity layer, will be building on top of Celestia. This integration will enable seamless cross-chain swaps between assets on Celestia rollups and the broader crypto ecosystem, reinforcing our commitment to a borderless, interconnected future. Catalyst is liquidity for the modular future, tailor-made for modular networks like

It's a proud moment for the Catalyst team as we announce the launch of our project's demo on testnet. Catalyst Protocol is designed as the universal liquidity layer for millions of chains. Its goal is to serve as the nexus point for any new modular chain

Catalyst aims to build the permissionless liquidity layer for the future of millions of chains.  Catalyst’s vision is to dissolve the barriers that have long separated blockchains. By connecting different chains, Catalyst creates an era of free trade and boundless opportunities. Just as the Internet connected isolated computers into

We are pleased to announce that Catalyst, the permissionless cross-chain liquidity layer, plans to deploy on Sei, the fastest Layer 1 blockchain. This deployment showcases a strategic commitment for Catalyst to bring comprehensive cross-chain liquidity to Sei's robust, high-speed infrastructure. The two teams have a shared vision of

Today, we are excited to present our whitepaper on the Unit of Liquidity (UoL), a revolutionary concept that sets the stage for the future of cross-chain applications. In this blog post, we will outline how Catalyst takes the concepts of Uniswap and Balancer to another level, and why this is

Today we announce that Catalyst, the permissionless cross-chain liquidity layer, is building with Neutron, the most secure CosmWasm platform in the Cosmos ecosystem. This collaboration will empower developers to create seamless, cross-chain swaps from assets on Neutron to the broader Cosmos and crypto ecosystem, reinforcing our vision for a borderless,

More so than ever, we need to prioritise the safe and scalable design of bridges because bridges touch everything. Yes, bridges have always been important

The following is an opinion piece from 0xjim, cross-posted with his personal Medium blog. The following statements are not associated with the opinion of Catalyst. Seems like these days everything is modular. Blockchains are modular. Banking is modular. Turns out the cross-chain problem isn’t immune to modularisation either. You

The following is an opinion piece from 0xjim, cross-posted with his personal Medium blog. The following statements are not associated with the opinion of Catalyst. In the future, there will be millions of chains. Did I stutter? Not thousands, not ten thousands, but millions of chains. CoinMarketCap currently marks the

We are excited to announce a strategic partnership between Catalyst and Eclipse, aimed at bringing permissionless connection and liquidity to rollups. Catalyst is a leading provider of permissionless liquidity layer for the modular future, while Eclipse is a customisable rollup provider designed for developers building some of blockchain's

Every asset, every chain, all at once. Today we unveil Catalyst, the cross-chain liquidity layer for modular chains. With Catalyst, any new modular chain can use Catalyst to permissionlessly connect liquidity and swap with hubs like Ethereum and Cosmos. We’re also grateful to be supported by industry veterans, raising
