Across Is Live on Solana: Fast, Cheap, and Secure EVM Bridging

Solana and Ethereum are growing fast.

Today, Solana averages over 1.2 million daily users who enjoy the network’s lightning-fast speed and low fees. Ethereum is experiencing new all-time highs and supports nearly 700,000 daily users (a 70% increase from last year). Bridging activity is heating up as well. As of early 2025, over $10 billion has flowed into Solana via bridges, with $254 million bridged in the last month alone.

Both of these chains are booming, and the crypto ecosystem is emitting countless signals of an approaching bull run.

As we gear up for the next moon mission, interoperability is of the utmost importance. In prior cycles, ecosystems grew independently from each other in fragmented siloes. But this cycle is different. The demand for seamless onchain experiences across the EVM and SVM is higher than ever, and these ecosystems need a bridge that can handle record-breaking traffic. We need a bridge that’s battle-tested, trustworthy, and built to last not just this cycle, but every cycle moving forward.

Across is that bridge, and we're now live on Solana.

We get it. Across isn’t the first to bridge to Solana. In fact, we’re a bit late to the party. But this happened for a reason.

With web3 infrastructure, we believe getting things right matters more than being first. And when the mission is to bridge two of crypto’s biggest ecosystems, we made sure to get it right. So instead of rushing, we locked in and focused on answering one big question:

“How do we bridge the gap between Ethereum and Solana in a way that’s built to last and scale?”

Across is already insanely fast and cheap. But in a landscape filled with bridges competing in speed and cost, two critical details are often overlooked: security and scalability. Our goal is to support Solana and Ethereum’s long-term growth while meeting the rising demand for seamless, secure, and scalable bridging without cutting corners. This is how we build bridging infrastructure and tools that people can trust.

Luckily, we aren’t working from scratch. We have years of experience.

Powering over 27B in volume across more than 17M transactions, our bridging tech is battle-tested and trusted by over 4M users throughout the EVM. We’ve had zero security exploits, and we intend to keep it that way. Bridging with Across is fast, cheap, and secure.

Our secret? Intents.

Across now connects Solana’s lightning-fast SVM and Ethereum’s secure, liquidity-rich EVM landscape. You can bridge crypto in seconds for cents with maximum piece of mind. This is all possible thanks to intents.

Across is the pioneer of intent-based bridging. In simple terms, intents empower you to simply state what you want to accomplish onchain (in this case, bridging crypto to/from Solana), and then our third-party relayer networks execute it for you in seconds. Relayers handle all the complex routing and take on 100% of the finality risk, leaving you with a quick, effortless, and reliable bridging experience. It’s fast, capital-efficient, and secure, without compromising on decentralization.

We believe intents provide the most efficient and reliable framework for bridging infrastructure. They optimize for speed, cost, and security while providing modular flexibility for sustainable scalability. In other words, intents have proven to be the ultimate rails for long-term interoperability.

To keep things streamlined at launch, Across is starting with USDC as the supported asset for Solana bridging. It’s ideal for trading, DeFi, and fast capital movement. We are using Circle’s CCTP for rebalancing USDC, and have worked closely with their team to ensure that the process is efficient.

Our integration with Solana marks one of the most significant expansions in our history. It’s a major step toward unifying two of crypto’s fastest-growing ecosystems for harmonious long-term growth.

Most Solana bridges stop at Ethereum mainnet. Across goes further by directly connecting Solana to a growing network of leading L2s like Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, and more, as well as BNB Smart Chain. This means faster access to liquidity, more DeFi opportunities, and a smoother user experiences across chains.

By bringing Solana’s speed together with Ethereum’s security under one intent-powered framework, we’re creating a truly unified multichain environment that’s ready to scale at mass adoption speed.

If you’re a developer, Across’ integration with Solana presents a massive opportunity for you. This is your chance to get a head start on building crosschain apps or infra that taps into EVM and SVM ecosystems with one clean integration. Note that developer access to Solana will be rolled out in stages to ensure a smooth experience for everyone.

Here’s what you need to know:

Solana support is here for devs who are ready to dive in early. The bridging logic is already optimized for ultra-fast transfers and the rest is coming soon, so stay tuned.

Across unlocks fast, cheap, and secure bridging between the Ethereum stack and Solana. The integration empowers shared liquidity, opportunity, and innovation across both ecosystems in a way that is built to last.

Whether you’re an everyday user, builder, or the most degenerate of all degens, Across is for you.
