🌉 Across Explores Shift from DAO to U.S. Corporation
🌉 DAO to Corp?
Across co-founder Hart Lambur appeared on the Talking Tokens podcast to discuss 'The Bridge Across' - a proposal exploring whether Across should transition from a DAO structure to a U.S. C-corp through a token-to-equity exchange and buyout.
Key discussion points:
- Why DAOs face challenges with enterprise contracts
- Implications for the future of token governance
- Insights from ETH Denver
The temp-check proposal represents a significant potential shift in how the protocol operates and governs itself.
On today's @_TalkingTokens, Across co-founder @hal2001 talks about our new proposal, and how Across is solving blockchain fragmentation. Full episode below!
Today's pod is with @hal2001, co-founder of @AcrossProtocol and @UMAprotocol We talk about Across’ new proposal, Ethereum's "war mode," solving blockchain fragmentation, the power law distribution of stablecoins, and staying the course in bear markets. Links below

Here's the TLDR on our temp-check proposal 'The Bridge Across' @hal2001 on @_TalkingTokens
Yesterday, @AcrossProtocol announced The Bridge Across proposal @hal2001 explains the mechanics of the proposal below:
Hyperliquid Enables Cross-Chain Bridging to Stablecoins on HyperCore
Hyperliquid has launched cross-chain transfer functionality, allowing users to bridge assets from any supported blockchain directly into stablecoins on HyperCore. **Key Features:** - Bridge from all supported chains and tokens - Direct conversion to stables on HyperCore - Streamlined trading access This builds on previous bridging capabilities that enabled deposits into HYPE tokens on both HyperLiquid L1 and HyperEVM.
Across Co-founder Discusses New Proposal to Solve Blockchain Fragmentation
Across co-founder Hart Lambur appeared on Talking Tokens to discuss a new proposal addressing blockchain fragmentation. **Key Points:** - Lambur outlined how Across is working to solve interoperability challenges across different blockchains - The discussion covered technical approaches to bridging fragmented blockchain ecosystems - Full episode available for those interested in cross-chain infrastructure developments This follows previous appearances where Lambur discussed Across's fast interoperability solutions and Solana bridging capabilities.
Across Enables Crosschain USDC Transfers via CCTP Integration
Across Protocol has launched support for crosschain USDC transfers, enabling bridgers and developers to move USDC between chains. **Key Features:** - Native USDC bridging using Circle's Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) - Seamless integration for builders developing crosschain applications - Part of Across's expanded "bridge everything" functionality **Technical Details:** The solution leverages CCTP v2 to facilitate secure USDC transfers across supported chains. This builds on Across's recent upgrade that introduced any-token-to-any-token bridging in single transactions. For implementation details and technical documentation, visit: [Across USDC Bridge Guide](https://across.to/blog/usdc-bridge-cctp-v2) **For Developers:** The integration provides builders with tools to incorporate native USDC transfers into their crosschain applications without managing multiple bridge protocols.
Blend Money Enables Onchain Savings with Across Protocol Integration
Blend Money has integrated Across Protocol to enable crosschain deposits for its onchain savings product. **Key Details:** - Users can now deposit funds across different blockchain networks - [Across Protocol](https://across.to) provides the crosschain infrastructure - The integration simplifies access to Blend's savings features from multiple chains This follows Uniswap's recent crosschain implementation, also powered by Across Protocol. The move reduces friction for users who want to access savings products without manually bridging assets between networks first.
