Cross-chain transfers have long been a game of compromise—either sacrificing security or giving up speed, with both difficult to achieve simultaneously. But now, a new approach is breaking this deadlock.

What is the key? Moving away from the old routines of wrapping assets(wrapped IOUs), and not relying on those "trust me" cross-chain bridging solutions. Instead, enabling native assets to flow directly to where they are needed—maintaining on-chain security properties without sacrificing speed.

This design concept represents an important direction for cross-chain infrastructure: truly enabling the free flow of assets without increasing trust risks. For the entire ecosystem, this decentralized interoperability solution is worth paying attention to.

Hmm, direct transfer of native assets? Easier said than done. The key is how to prevent hackers; we need to overcome this hurdle.

Finally, someone has taken down the tired old story of wrapped assets. It should have happened sooner.

Finally, someone has gotten rid of the old and outdated wrapped token concept. I'm tired of it already.

Someone finally wants to break the deadlock; the wrapped approach should have been discarded long ago. Direct on-chain asset circulation? Now that's the right way to open up. I believe in achieving both security and speed, but ultimately it still depends on the implementation results.

Really? Wrapped tokens are finally going to die? I've been waiting for this for too long. Someone should have brought this up a long time ago. All the effort spent on bridge risks over the years was wasted. Native asset transfer sounds like a dream, but if it can really be implemented, that would be awesome.

Finally, someone is going to eliminate those shit-wrapped assets. I've been annoyed by them for a long time.

Finally, someone has explained the concept of wrapped assets clearly. I've always felt that thing was a bit strange. Now, native assets flowing directly is indeed more comfortable.

Finally, someone is seriously working on cross-chain, and the wrapped token approach definitely needs to be phased out.
