4. Nervos Launch Cross-Chain Bridge With IOHK
Nervos recently launched a new product with IOHK. The recently launched product is a cross-chain bridge linking Nervos to the Cardano blockchain.

Notably, network users on both platforms will also be able to create their own tokens on both blockchains.
This recently launched cross-chain bridge is a major milestone for the entire Nervos ecosystem as it is the first cross-chain bridge to connect with Nervos besides the Ethereum bridge.
We’re excited to announce our latest project with @InputOutputHK—a cross-chain bridge connecting Nervos & #Cardano 🎉
