Cross-Chain Settlement
Atomic settlement infrastructure connecting heterogeneous blockchain networks. Delivery-versus-payment, delivery-versus-delivery, and multi-leg settlement patterns across architecturally different platforms.

Track Record
Track Record
The Chainflip Protocol is a live, open-source cross-chain settlement system that demonstrates our ability to design, build, and operate complex DLT infrastructure at scale.
1
Custom Protocol Architecture
Designed and implemented a complete cross-chain settlement protocol from scratch: custom Substrate-based State Chain, threshold signature vault system, and just-in-time AMM: all operating in consensus across a distributed validator network of 150 nodes.
2
$6.5B in Settled Volume
Processed over $6.5 billion in atomic cross-chain settlement across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, and Arbitrum with zero security incidents, zero loss of funds, and continuous uptime since 2023.
3
Multi-Chain Vault Operations
Operates production threshold signature vaults across 6+ heterogeneous blockchain networks simultaneously, managing distributed cryptographic key material for cross-chain custody without any single point of failure.
4
Open Source & Audited
Entire codebase is open source, independently audited by Trail of Bits, and publicly verifiable. Transparent development practices aligned with the standards expected of critical infrastructure.
