Fuse Network, a payments-focused blockchain, has announced a strategic partnership with Stargate, a leading cross-chain asset bridge, to enhance digital asset interoperability and liquidity across multiple blockchain networks.
The integration, announced on Wednesday, December 4, 2024, leverages Stargate’s Hydra technology to enable seamless asset transfers with zero fees and minimal friction. Users can now bridge key digital assets like USDC, USDT, and WETH from over 20 blockchain networks directly onto the Fuse Network.
“This partnership represents a significant advancement in our cross-chain infrastructure,” said [Placeholder Name], CEO of Fuse Network. “By collaborating with Stargate, we’re providing our users with a more efficient and accessible way to move digital assets.”
