Einsteins, we’re excited to announce the 8th supported chain on the Wormhole network: Fantom!

Why Fantom?

Fantom is a layer-1 blockchain with a fast consensus mechanism, allowing for high throughput and sub-cent fees. Over the past year, the network has also experienced explosive growth, handling ~1,000,000 transactions per day with an average block time of 0.9s. With Fantom’s support, users can now reach its reach ecosystem comprising of over 80+ dApps, including DEXs, borrow/lending protocols, and more!

What’s available for users at launch?

Assets wrapped by Wormhole can move between any chain without “double or triple” wrapping. So users can swap into UST on any of Wormhole’s supported networks and bridge their UST directly to Fantom with liquidity on the newly launched Curve pool with UST from Wormhole, USDC and fUSDT.
