This week in Conduit

Bridged USDC one-click integration now available for mainnets

We’re excited to announce that Bridged USDC is now available as a one-click integration for mainnets on Conduit Marketplace. Until today, the one-click functionality was only available for testnets. There’s no easier way to get USDC liquidity on your chain, and by using Circle’s official standard for bridging, you’ll eventually be able to get native USDC. 

High-availability sequencers explained

Two weeks ago, we announced our new, ultra high-performance sequencer: G2. But while performance is crucial for a sequencer, reliability is just as important. What happens if there’s a hardware failure? Or you need to go offline for an upgrade? Or someone just goes ahead and deletes the sequencer?

If you’re using a high-availability sequencer, the answer is: Nothing bad. Your rollup keeps going no matter what happens to the sequencer, because a backup is ready to take over – no downtime, no forks, no problems. Read our blog to learn how it works.

Across Protocol now on Conduit Marketplace

This week, we were thrilled to welcome Across Protocol to Conduit Marketplace. Across is the intents-base bridging protocol that unlocks new cross-chain functionalities and liquidity sources for rollups. We’re excited to have them aboard!
