What is Celer cBridge?
Celer cBridge is a decentralized, non-custodial cross-chain asset bridge built on the Celer Network infrastructure. Launched in 2021, cBridge enables fast and low-cost transfers across more than 40 blockchain networks, making it one of the most broadly connected bridges in the ecosystem. CBridge leverages Celer's State Guardian Network (SGN). A proof-of-stake blockchain secured by CELR token stakers. To validate and process cross-chain transactions. CBridge supports two bridging modes: the Pool-Based Transfer model for speed and the Canonical Mapping Transfer model for trust-minimization. The protocol offers yield opportunities for liquidity providers who contribute to bridge pools.

How cBridge Works
Pool-Based Transfer (xLiquidity)
User deposits tokens to source chain pool, SGN verifies the deposit, tokens released from destination chain pool, LPs earn fees.
Canonical Mapping Transfer (xAsset)
Tokens locked on source chain, SGN attests to lock, wrapped tokens minted on destination, burn to unlock originals.
Supported Chains
EVM Chains: Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Fantom, Gnosis, Moonbeam, Metis, Aurora, Celo L2s/Rollups: zkSync Era, Polygon zkEVM, Scroll, Linea, Mantle Non-EVM: Aptos, Sui, Flow (NFT bridge)Yield Opportunities
