1 – Avalanche | Wanchain Integration to Bolster Decentralized Cross-Chain Interoperability
Wanchain has collaborated with Avalanche to boost decentralized cross-chain interoperability. Moreover, Wanchain connects blockchain networks that are isolated due to it being a decentralized blockchain interoperability solution. Hence, this collaboration helps Avalanche and its ecosystem’s projects to utilize Wanchain’s cross-chain blockchain infrastructure to create new value and use cases for their users.
In addition, Wanchain will build new use cases for cross-chain compatible tokens. Such new cases include wanXRP and wanLTC on Avalanche, not to mention wanAVAX on other public blockchains. Avalanche is one of the fastest smart contract platforms in terms of time-to-finality. Hence, this coalition expands new possibilities for developers as Avalanche is now fully supporting Wanchain as the world’s most advanced cross-chain solution.
