We track 15 Bridges that run on Polygon and have reviewed 14 of them in full. Our top pick is LayerZero V2. Each one is scored on security, ease of use, fees and features.
Ranked list
- 1
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 $17.9B+10.6% - 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 $1.86B−0.9% - 3
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 $3.36B+7.4% - 4
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 $11.7M−2.5% - 5
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 $5.57M−5.0% - 6
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.
ScoreScore 6.8 out of 10TVL $1.76M−5.9% - 7
PepeTeam Bridge
Bridge · Ethereum, Waves, BNB Chain +2
PepeTeam Bridge is a small lock-and-mint bridge linking Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Tron and Waves. Its fees and team are not detailed on the homepage, so check them before moving funds.
ScoreScore 5.8 out of 10TVL $678K−1.6% - 8
ChainPort
Bridge · Ethereum, Cardano, BNB Chain +2
ChainPort is a cross-chain bridge for moving tokens between Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Fantom and Cardano. It has a simple interface, but its TVL is small and key details such as fees are not published.
ScoreScore 5.8 out of 10TVL $422K−16.6% - 9
VenomBridge
Bridge · Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche +2
VenomBridge is a cross-chain bridge that moves tokens between the Venom blockchain and EVM networks such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche, Polygon and Fantom. It is a focused, small-scale tool whose fees and team are not published.
ScoreScore 5.8 out of 10TVL $269K+0.0% - 10
Orbit Bridge
Bridge · XRP Ledger, BNB Chain, Wemix +6
Orbit Bridge is a cross-chain bridge for moving tokens between many blockchains. It lists about $16.2M in TVL and wide chain coverage, but public sources leave the security model and fees unexplained.
ScoreScore 5.5 out of 10TVL $15.2M−3.4% - 11
ShimmerBridge
Bridge · Ethereum, Avalanche, BNB Chain +5
ShimmerBridge is the official LayerZero wrapped-asset bridge for ShimmerEVM, moving assets from eight major EVM chains. It is a small, unaudited-on-record bridge, so it suits users who specifically need to reach ShimmerEVM.
ScoreScore 5.0 out of 10TVL $176K−0.2% - 12
Ulysses
Bridge · Ethereum, Metis, Optimism +9
Ulysses is an omnichain liquidity protocol in the Maia DAO ecosystem, listed as a bridge on DefiLlama across 12 chains. Its TVL is very small, and public detail is limited.
ScoreScore 5.0 out of 10TVL $25.7K+0.1% - 13
RenVM
Bridge · Solana, Ethereum, Avalanche +6
RenVM is a decentralized cross-chain protocol that let users bring BTC, BCH and ZEC to Ethereum and other chains as wrapped tokens such as renBTC. Locked value has dropped sharply, so check its current status before using it.
ScoreScore 5.0 out of 10TVL — - 14
ioTube
Bridge · IoTeX, Polygon, BNB Chain +1
ioTube is a token bridge connecting IoTeX with Ethereum, BNB Chain and Polygon. A reported February 2026 exploit of its Ethereum side is the main thing to weigh before using it.
ScoreScore 4.5 out of 10TVL $2.58M−10.9% - 15
Proxy
Bridge · Polygon, Ethereum
Proxy Finance is described as a BTC wrapper and yield project, but the listed ProxyWing site sells IP proxy services. Their relationship is unclear, so the project cannot be confidently identified.
