LayerZero V2
Bridge · Polygon, Ethereum, ApeChain +76
LayerZero V2 is a cross-chain messaging protocol that lets apps send data and assets between many blockchains, with about $17.6 billion in TVL listed on DefiLlama. Its strength is reach and configurable security; the main caveat is that safety depends on each app's setup.
ScoreScore 8.0 out of 10TVL $16.7B+8.9% - 2
CCIP
Bridge · Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche +17
Chainlink CCIP is a cross-chain messaging and token-transfer protocol run by Chainlink, listed with about $1.89 billion in TVL across 21 chains. It is infrastructure for apps and institutions rather than a consumer product.
ScoreScore 7.6 out of 10TVL $1.85B−2.7% - 3
Unit
Bridge · Bitcoin, Zcash, Ethereum +5
Unit is an asset tokenization layer that lets users deposit native assets such as BTC, ETH and SOL onto Hyperliquid and withdraw them again. It holds close to $1 billion in TVL, but no audits are listed and the model relies on a guardian set.
ScoreScore 7.2 out of 10TVL $936M−1.3% - 4
USDT0
Bridge · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Avalanche +26
USDT0 is Tether's cross-chain system that puts USDT and tokenized gold (XAUT0) on 25+ networks with one unified supply. It has large reported volume and supply, but it ties you to Tether's own risks.
ScoreScore 7.5 out of 10TVL $3.30B+7.0% - 5
Hyperliquid Bridge
Bridge · Hyperliquid L1, Arbitrum
Hyperliquid Bridge is the route for moving USDC from Arbitrum onto the Hyperliquid Layer 1, where its perpetual and spot markets run. DefiLlama lists about $6.44 billion in TVL, which makes it one of the larger bridges tracked, but public sources leave fees and limits unstated.
ScoreScore 7.2 out of 10TVL $6.41B−2.9% - 6
cBridge
Bridge · Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon +23
cBridge is Celer Network's multi-chain asset bridge, supporting transfers across dozens of EVM chains and layer-2s. It offers broad coverage, but fees and security details need to be checked directly.
ScoreScore 7.3 out of 10TVL $11.6M−4.0% - 7
Lombard BTC.b
Bridge · Bitcoin
Lombard BTC.b is a 1:1 Bitcoin representation meant to move BTC across multiple chains for DeFi use, backed by a consortium of validators. It suits Bitcoin holders who want DeFi access, but it adds bridge and validator trust risk.
ScoreScore 7.1 out of 10TVL $161M−0.6% - 8
Wan Bridge
Bridge · XRP Ledger, Ethereum, BNB Chain +28
Wan Bridge is the cross-chain bridge from the Wanchain project, linking more than 30 networks including Bitcoin, XRPL, Ethereum and Solana. Its range is the draw; small TVL and self-reported security claims are the caveats.
ScoreScore 7.0 out of 10TVL $5.56M−13.1% - 9
Stacks sBTC
Bridge · Bitcoin
sBTC is a SIP-010 token on the Stacks blockchain that represents Bitcoin 1:1 so BTC holders can use DeFi apps. DefiLlama shows roughly $199M in TVL, but no audits are listed.
ScoreScore 6.8 out of 10TVL $187M−3.8% - 10
FAssets
Bridge · XRP Ledger, Flare

BOB Bridge
Bridge · Ethereum
BOB is a Bitcoin-focused hybrid L2 built on the OP stack, paired with a Gateway tool that moves native BTC to and from other chains. It is a notable Bitcoin DeFi project, but its audit coverage and TVL figures need checking before you commit funds.

deBridge
Bridge · Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum +3
deBridge is a cross-chain protocol for swapping and transferring tokens and arbitrary data between blockchains. Public sources show an established listing since 2022, but a modest and recently declining TVL.
