China’s Nervos has launched a trustless bridge designed to modify cross-chain transactions between its CKB network and Ethereum.

Chinese public blockchain project Nervos has proclaimed the launch of a cross-chain bridge between it and Ethereum.

The launch of Nervos’ Force Bridge was disclosed on Dec. 17, with the bridge self-praise native support for ERC-20 tokens and resistance transfers between Ethereum and Nervos’ CKB chain.

The team claims its bridge was galvanized by the “Force Staff” tool from the popular game Dota a pair of, that permits users to force the movements of objects across its virtual world.

Nervos claims its trustless design simplifies the steps required to execute cross-chain transfers, describing different bridges as needing the preparation of “a new quality on the target chain, registering the address on Ethereum, and specifying the connection between transferring assets” to attain inter-chain practicality.

By distinction, developers don’t ought to create any integrations to access Force Bridge, as Nervos’ bridge needs users solely to deploy the ERC-20 to initiate quality transfers — with CKB’s native support for ERC-20 sensible contracts requiring no more steps for contract execution. Nervos co-founder, Kevin Wang, said:

“Interoperability has been and continues to be a main focus of the Nervos team as we have a tendency to develop our infrastructure to support next generation DeFi applications.”

Ethereum users will access Force Bridge directly from their billfold. The team hopes Ethereum developers can look to the Nervos network to expand their DApp system and user base.

Ethereum’s billowing success amid the third-quarter DeFi boom and Gregorian calendar month launch of the Eth2 beacon chain has galvanized several outstanding blockchain comes to unveil bridges between their own networks and Ethereum.

On Nov. 24, Ava Labs unveiled its Avalanche-Ethereum bridge, that was developed by ChainSafe as a part of its Avalanche-X grants program. In August, PureStake received a grant from the Web3 Foundation to develop cross-chain practicality between Ethereum and Substrate-based sensible contracts parachain moon ray.
