ChainPort

ChainPort is a next-gen custodian secure bridge that lets you hop across various blockchains at a click. Built by @DcentraLab

We have submitted Project Janus to the @IntersectMBO 2026 Budget process. It's a 24-month roadmap to decentralize cross-chain bridging on @Cardano and bring generalized cross-chain messaging to the network.

ChainPort has been live on Cardano mainnet since November 2022. We hold 98% of bridged assets in Fireblocks and Gnosis Vaults cold storage, our codebase is audited by Trail of Bits, CertiK, Cyber Unit, and Zokyo, and we run across 47+ chains today. Janus is the next stage.

The authorization model that controls bridge transactions moves fully on-chain, anchored to Cardano's own consensus through a stake-weighted quorum of SPOs and Mithril certificates that tie outbound verification straight back to Ouroboros.

Janus also adds something Cardano doesn't have yet: generalized cross-chain messaging. A Cardano smart contract can't call a function on Ethereum today, and that keeps cross-chain governance, RWA synchronization, and one-click DeFi from working at scale.

Three pieces of infrastructure get built. A Decentralized Verifier Network with SPO BFT consensus and Mithril. An open Cross-Chain Token standard on CIP-113 and 143, with a single canonical Plutus policy so projects stop ending up with bridge-specific wrapped tokens fragmenting their liquidity. And a Mailbox layer for messaging, so Cardano contracts can call functions on EVM chains.

The DVN and CCT standard ship as open Cardano CIPs. Governance moves to a DAO treasury. No follow-up treasury withdrawals.

Janus isn't a greenfield design. It's the team that already secures real Cardano assets decentralizing infrastructure we've been running since 2022.

The full proposal is on Hydra, link below. We'd love your feedback.

Another bridge exploit hit $292M this week. Same pattern as the last several: the cross-chain messaging layer failed, and the bridge released funds it should not have released.

Here is where the bridge industry is right now.

Fully decentralized bridging is the right long-term goal. A trust-minimized bridge where no single party can compromise the system is what the industry should be building toward. But the technology is not there yet. Every "decentralized" bridge architecture shipped to date still depends on a small set of off-chain verifiers, oracles, or relayers. When one of those fails, the bridge fails.

The list is long enough. Ronin. Wormhole. Nomad. Multichain. Orbit. The common thread: a small verifier set was trusted with more value than it could defend.

Until the technology matures, the most secure bridge design is the one the industry is least enthusiastic about naming out loud: centralized custody run by reputable operators with institutional security standards.

That is what ChainPort is built on.

Up to 5% of bridged assets sit in the hot bridge contract. The remaining 98% lives in rebalancing and treasury vaults secured by Fireblocks MPC cold storage and Gnosis multi-sig. When the hot contract needs refilling after heavy outbound volume, the refill is manual and goes through the ChainPort Congress multi-sig. Human approval is required on the cold side before any liquidity moves to the hot side.

The practical effect: an attack on the messaging layer has a cap. An attacker cannot drain what the bridge contract cannot touch, and what it cannot touch requires coordinated approval from multiple holders of hardware-isolated keys.

This is the hot wallet and cold wallet separation that custodial exchanges have used for a decade, applied to the bridge itself.

Decentralization is the goal. Institutional-grade custody is the safest path there.

ChainPort now supports @SeiNetwork!

Sei has a different origin story than most EVM chains, and that background shapes what's been built there. Thread below.

With ChainPort, you can bridge to Sei from, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum... and more.
$ETH, stablecoins, you name it. Whatever you're holding.
