Wan Bridge Review 2026: Wide Chain Support, Small TVL

Wan Bridge is the cross-chain bridge from Wanchain, a project that describes itself as a decentralised blockchain interoperability solution. DefiLlama lists it in the Bridge category, tracking around 6 million USD in total value locked and support for a long list of chains.

That list is unusually broad. It includes non-EVM networks such as Bitcoin, Cardano, Solana, XRPL, Litecoin and Doge alongside EVM chains like Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base and Polygon. Wanchain also announced Tron support and XFlows, a combined bridge and swap feature.

Its homepage available for this review is thin, so this page relies on DefiLlama data, Wanchain's posts and public reporting. Treat the project's security claims as self-reported.

A bridge lets you move value between blockchains that cannot talk to each other directly. On a typical route you lock or burn an asset on the source chain, and an equivalent asset is released or minted on the destination chain.

Wanchain describes its approach as fully decentralised bridges that connect separate networks, including public and private chains. Its documentation has covered a two-way bridge and a direct bridge design. Verification of transfers is handled by Wanchain's own network rather than a single company, according to the project's description.

Users interact through WanBridge Web, a browser-based interface. Wanchain has also promoted XFlows, which combines bridging and swapping so users do not need to use a separate bridge and DEX for a transfer, and said it was live for Tron.

Wanchain states that every crosschain transfer pays a bridge fee and that 10% of all bridge fees go to xWAN stakers. The project does not give the fee amount or percentage for any route.

Users will also pay network gas on the source chain, and possibly on the destination chain. The quote shown in the bridge interface before confirming a transfer is where to see the actual cost.

DefiLlama lists two audits for the bridge, but the project does not name the auditors or give the dates. Wanchain says in a post that it has had 8+ years, 100% uptime and zero exploits. This is a self-reported claim, so check it independently before relying on it.

Bridges hold pooled assets and rely on validators and smart contracts, so they are a common target for attacks. Supporting more than 30 chains increases the number of integrations that must be secured. TVL fell 9.1% over seven days, which may simply reflect market movement. Start with small amounts and use only the official site.

Wan Bridge is for people who need to move tokens across many different networks, including non-EVM chains, and who are comfortable with the risks of bridging. It is less suited to anyone who needs fully verified fee data or the largest possible liquidity pool.
