🔭 Insight

Design of Cross-chain Bridge

In the last year, cross-chain bridges have been one of the hottest theses. Over one year, the cross-chain market grows from 0 to 1. Now new players face fierce competition in the cross-chain bridge market. It is time to review what happened in this market and look for real innovations. During this time, developers find three approaches for bridge designs:

  • Local Verification
  • External Verification
  • Native Verification

These designs try to balance between trustless, extensible, and generalization.

Let's Go, Snail Trail!

Snail Trail is a racing game based on Avalanche Network. The game theme is quite interesting: a racing competition between snails.

In this post, we’re going to introduce:

  • How to play/win
  • Family & genes system
  • Snails’ adaptions to the racing environment
  • Breeding system
  • DNA Crossing
  • How to earn and play competition race
  • Personal strategy

However, Snail Trail is still under maintenance, and the game has not started yet. We do not know the actual gaming experience yet while looking forward to it.
