Native Bridge

RibbleChain’s native bridge, powered by protocols like LayerZero and IBC, facilitates seamless cross-chain transfers and messaging for Layer 3 (L3) rollups. This guide details how to use the native bridge for advanced use cases.

What is the Native Bridge?

• Purpose: Enables asset transfers and message passing between RibbleChain and other chains.
• Protocols: Supports LayerZero for EVM chains and IBC for Cosmos-based chains.
• Features: Gasless transactions, low latency, and high security.

Prerequisites

• A RibbleChain smart wallet (see Creating a Smart Wallet).
• RibbleChain CLI: npm install -g ribblechain-cli.

Step 1: Configure the Bridge

Initialize the native bridge:

ribblechain-cli bridge init --rollup my-rollup --protocol layerzero
