The Tanssi Foundation is pleased to announce the integration of Cycle Network's chain abstraction architecture into the Tanssi infrastructure protocol. This collaboration will enable decentralized networks—also known as Active Validated Services (AVSs)—launched through Tanssi to access Cycle Network’s liquidity layer and user base, along with advanced cross-chain interoperability. By facilitating seamless interactions between blockchains both within and beyond the Tanssi ecosystem, the integration improves user experience, enhances security by reducing vulnerabilities, and eliminates the need for intermediaries.
“We’re excited to collaborate with Tanssi Network and Symbiotic in addressing the challenges of network fragmentation and enhancing the overall user experience in Web3. This collaboration will unlock new possibilities for secure and seamless cross-chain operations.” — Robbie, Co-Founder & CEO at Cycle Network.
Building on Tanssi’s collaboration with Symbiotic, which introduced Ethereum-backed security through restaking, this integration will further extend Tanssi’s capabilities. AVSs will be able to launch with ready liquidity and a broad user base, leveraging Tanssi’s rapid deployment, decentralization, and customizability via Substrate. This strengthens Tanssi’s role as a leading protocol for efficient blockchain deployment and management.
Cycle Network: Unlocking Seamless Interoperability and Liquidity Access Through Chain Abstraction
Cycle Network addresses the challenges of fragmented liquidity and complex cross-chain interactions that can disrupt decentralized applications (dApps). Its chain abstraction enables blockchains, including those launched on Tanssi, to interoperate efficiently without relying on vulnerable traditional bridges.
A key feature of this integration is Cycle Network’s Verifiable State Aggregation (VSA), which aggregates and verifies blockchain states in real-time. This will empower decentralized networks (AVSs) on Tanssi to interact seamlessly with both internal blockchains within the Tanssi ecosystem and external chains, facilitating real-time validations, transactions, and asset transfers with minimal complexity. By simplifying these cross-chain interactions, VSA reduces the operational burdens typically associated with managing multiple blockchains, making it easier for AVSs to scale and operate smoothly.
In addition to VSA, Cycle Network’s decentralized sequencer enhances the security and efficiency of these operations by ensuring transactions are processed securely and fairly. The sequencer coordinates multiple decentralized nodes through distributed consensus, improving the reliability and performance of AVSs deployed on Tanssi. This combination of advanced interoperability and secure transaction processing makes Cycle Network an essential component of Tanssi’s infrastructure, significantly boosting the functionality and resilience of decentralized networks.
Tanssi and Cycle Network: Powering Next-Level Liquidity and Seamless Interoperability for Decentralized Networks
Cycle Network's chain abstraction brings an unparalleled level of interoperability to Tanssi’s decentralized AVSs, unlocking new scalability opportunities across a wide range of projects and use cases.
By combining Tanssi’s rapid deployment and extensive customization features with Cycle Network’s advanced interoperability, developers can quickly launch decentralized networks tailored to their specific needs. This flexibility supports diverse projects, from DeFi protocols to complex dApps, all backed by the robust security of Ethereum through Symbiotic’s restaking protocol. Let’s explore how this integration can be applied in a decentralized finance (DeFi) scenario.
In a DeFi ecosystem, the integration of Cycle Network into Tanssi significantly enhances liquidity management and cross-chain asset transfers. DeFi platforms deployed on Tanssi can tap directly into Cycle Network’s liquidity layer, allowing users to seamlessly engage in lending, staking, and yield farming across multiple blockchains without relying on vulnerable bridges. Verifiable State Aggregation (VSA) ensures that assets from different blockchains are securely validated and transferred in real-time, enabling seamless interactions for users who wish to access liquidity or trade assets across various ecosystems. Tanssi’s customizability allows developers to fine-tune economic incentives, governance models, and virtual machines optimized for DeFi, while Ethereum’s shared security keeps the system secure and decentralized.
This combination of Tanssi’s flexible infrastructure and Cycle Network’s liquidity and interoperability ensures that developers can build secure, scalable, and highly liquid DeFi platforms with minimal complexity.
Tanssi’s integration with Cycle Network is currently in development and expected to go live on the mainnet following Tanssi’s official launch in the first quarter of 2025. Once live, this integration will allow developers to build secure, customizable, and interoperable decentralized networks while accessing Cycle Network’s liquidity layer and user base from day one. By combining security through Ethereum’s restaking, seamless cross-chain communication, and instant liquidity, this collaboration provides developers with the infrastructure needed to drive adoption and streamline decentralized applications across multiple blockchains.
