Stargate V1
Cross Chain Bridge · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Mantle +9
Stargate V1 is a cross-chain bridge built on LayerZero that moves native assets between chains using shared liquidity pools. It is an established, audited design with modest TVL, and the usual bridge risks apply.

Everclear
Cross Chain Bridge · Linea, Taiko, Polygon +19

Interport Finance
Cross Chain Bridge · Scroll, Ethereum, Linea +13
Interport Finance is a cross-chain swap and bridge service that routes trades through DEX aggregation and cross-chain messaging instead of classic bridge pools. Its multichain reach is wide, but on-chain activity is very small.

CrossCurve
Cross Chain Bridge · Taiko, xDai, BNB Chain +17
CrossCurve, formerly EYWA, is a cross-chain swap and bridge protocol that combines Curve-style pools with a multi-messenger design. It suffered a bridge exploit in early 2026, and its TVL is now very small, so caution is warranted.

Altitude
Cross Chain Bridge · Ethereum, Arbitrum, Avalanche +6
Altitude is described as a LayerZero-based bridge for moving native assets across multiple networks. Its current interface, supported assets and fees are unclear, so verify those details before considering a transfer.
