How does Cycle Network launch a storm of popularization of Web3 assets and applications?

Author: bms

When Circle rang the Nasdaq in June 2025, the massive adoption of stablecoins got rid of the "proof of concept" label for the first time and possessed real capital market coordinates. As Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire said in TOKEN 2049: "We are moving towards a world where asset flow is as chainless and borderless as sending emails." Today's multi-chain environment is still like a gateway in the dial-up Internet age: in order to be compatible with various chains, developers repeatedly jump between wallets, networks and gas fees. Web3 assets urgently need an infrastructure upgrade similar to cloud native to Web2 -encapsulating the underlying complexity into a unified abstraction layer, so that application innovation is no longer bound by the boundaries of the chain, and the friction caused by multiple chains on asset issuance and application needs to be completely smoothed out.

1. Why Web3 assets need a "superconductor" that runs through multiple

chains

In the past two years, the explosive growth of Layer 2 and the application chain has made the on-chain assets "flower everywhere", but for end users, in the cross-chain financial topology, Web3 assets face not simply delays in transfers, but a set of systematic problems that overlap with each other:

1. "Multiple Bonds" at the Capital Level

· If the institutional fund pool is to be deployed simultaneously on Ethereum, Berachain, Sonic and other networks, it is necessary to repeatedly go through the cycle of "locking the warehouse → coin → unlocking → coin reminiscence"; each state migration is exposed to the risk of gray rhino such as bridge contract reentry, beacon delay, and final confirmation.

· The compliance perspective is even sharper: When a stablecoin or securitized asset is in multiple chains and across multiple jurisdictions, it is often necessary to meet the KYC/AML report of the "source of funds" and "funding places" at the same time. If the company or individual does not declare simultaneously, the assets will be frozen at the least, and at the worst, they will face money laundering charges. In addition, some countries stipulate that overseas chain assets must be re-included into local capital accounts when they return to their local chain.

2. User experience and developers ' "protocol vision obscurity"

For the C-end, the four consecutive jumps of "transaction signature → network switching → Gas calculation → Wait for confirmation" are essentially to expose the internal complexity of the protocol to users; once cross-chain, additional information noise such as "mapping token discount, depth of liquidity on the bridge, oracle timeliness" are needed. The result is: the composability of funds is divided and the friction rate between chains increases sharply.

When developers face "three-way coupling damping", when calling multi-chain liquidity, developers need to manually handle Gas fee asynchronous replication, Lightning loan rollback boundary, and Merkle Proof depth differences; even with the help of universal bridges, they must always pay attention to Router rearrangement and Sequencer congestion.

Due to the different security models, the contract call path has a paradox of "shortest logical stack ≠ lowest trust stack": the seemingly simple exchange of 2 chains is actually lengthened to N + 1 potential attack surface. **

2. The path to reduce friction in Web3 assets in the multi-chain era

Currently, the industry has formed three ideas around "making assets available everywhere and using them everywhere", each of which has taken measures to address different links of friction between chains:

·Everclear focuses on "net intention" - it uses Netting Solver to offset unnecessary paths locally, helping institutions reduce rebalancing and hedging costs when deploying multi-networks;

Particle Network starts with account abstraction and uses Universal Account to unify the identities, signatures and authorizations of different chains to the same interface, saving users' mental burden of switching wallets and networks back and forth;

·One Balance focuses on real-time Portfolio + lightweight cross-chain exchange, summing up each chain token, LP position and NFT into a total asset view, and built-in native routing supports small-scale chain exchange. The three have their own strengths, but they still rely on underlying bridges or dispersed liquidity to varying degrees.

Recently, Cycle Network , incubated by Yzi Labs and led by Temasek's Vertex Ventures, has chosen to pull down another layer: through Verifiable State Aggregation, the multi-chain state is gathered into a unified security consensus, allowing "finality of liquidity" and "deep liquidity" to be converged at the same time, providing an abstract base similar to "cloud native" for the above three categories and even more innovations to be called freely. **

3. What is Cycle Network

3.1 Innovative MultiChain Settlement Layer

Cycle Network is a set of "multi-chain settlement layers" aimed at eliminating multi-chain friction. Through self-developed Verifiable State Aggregation technology + Symbiotic security consensus, the status of 20+ networks such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Berachain, Monad is gathered to the unified settlement surface. Users and developers no longer need to rely on traditional cross-chain bridges to call heterochain assets.

3.2 The core advantages of Cycle Network

The core advantage of Cycle Network is to "hide" complex cross-chain processes into the underlying protocol: With the help of Verifiable State Aggregation and Rollin/Rollout API, users can complete asset transfers in any dApp with just one signature, without having to understand bridges, network switching or gas tokens, thereby eliminating the cognitive and operational barriers of traditional cross-chain.

At the same time, Cycle abstracts ETH, BTC, stablecoins and even RWA assets on EVM and non-EVM chains into the same liquidity pool through a unified settlement layer and liquidity routing, realizing free calls of any asset and any chain, allowing developers to combine multi-chain assets like calling API interfaces.

Simply put, Cycle is like building a gate at the intersection of multiple rivers - the water flow is no longer tangled with the source, just lift the gate and the assets go down.

3.3 Product Analysis: B-end and C-end simultaneously exert force

B-end developers’ gospel: Chain abstract SDK is quickly implemented

For developers, Cycle Network has launched the Cycle SDK, which is essentially a set of development tools that encapsulate Verifiable State Aggregation capabilities into an easy-to-access development tool set. Developers only need to introduce the Rollin/Rollout module into the contract or server to upgrade a single-chain application to a true chain abstract DApp within ≤ 1 day, without the need to hand-written bridge logic or maintain multiple sets of front-end network switching. The SDK has built-in automatic liquidity routing, unified gas estimates and Symbiotic share security verification, and opens Webhook and Subgraph to facilitate projects to monitor and control multi-chain transactions in the background.

Practical application scenario cases:

• Decentralized exchange DEX: uses the aggregate liquidity of SDK to convert cross-ecological transactions such as ETH — BNB, BTC — wBERA into the same matchmaking pool; the user's trading path is no different from the single-chain experience, but it can be automatically split into a multi-chain liquidity source in the background.

• Cross-chain lending platform: Developers can call Rollout to collateralize assets in one chain and lend stablecoins in another chain. All collateral value and liquidation logic are verified by the Cycle settlement layer → greatly reduce liquidation delay and price difference risks.

• On-chain games: The game studio only connects to the SDK once, allowing players to use SOL to purchase Bera chain NFT props or settle gas with USDC. The player side senses it as "direct payment", and the complex multi-chain process is completed in the background.

The popular "Goose" mini game application on TikTok: Golden Goose

Golden Goose is the most representative C-end DeFAI application of the Cycle ecosystem: it writes "chain abstraction + gamification" as a landable revenue portal, allowing Web 2 users to obtain on-chain revenue in one click without switching the network or preparing gas. The platforms are divided into Game Mode and Pro Mode: the former packages the income strategy as goose-raising games, combining the NFT growth system and the circular re-investment mechanism; the latter integrates structured strategies such as stable interest rate spreads, LP mining and lending arbitrage to provide returns.

Someone on TikTok described: Golden Goose is like an "on-chain vending machine" that automatically pays dividends: you just need to cast a "start" button, and the complicated cross-chain gears behind it will run quietly, packaging the liquidity and strategies on multiple chains into profit eggs, and rolling into your hands from the shipment port - you don't have to know the wallet or switch the network throughout the process, just collect money.

4. Drive on-chain assets: Cycle Network’s value positioning in

stablecoins and RWA

4.1 Why Stablecoins and RWAs Become the Global Focus

· Hedging and liquidity demand: Global macro volatility has intensified, and fiat currency inflation and capital controls have created a demand for assets denominated by USD and real-time liquidation on-chain. According to the latest data from Coingecko, the market value of stablecoins has exceeded US$250 B.

· Accelerate asset digitalization: The pilot projects of regulatory sandbox and on-chain settlement are constantly being implemented, and Real-World Assets such as real estate, accounts receivable, and treasury bonds are regarded as the most certain track for blockchain implementation.

· Cost and transparency advantages: The average handling fee on-chain transfer and settlement is one order of magnitude lower than that of traditional cross-border systems, and programmability provides instant and verifiable underlying data for auditing and compliance.

4.2 How does Cycle 's multi-chain settlement mechanism become the infrastructure of stablecoins and RWA?

4.3 From previous "edge experiments" to specific application scenarios

Multi-chain stablecoin clearing gateway: The issuer can mint USDC in Chain A, and use the Cycle settlement layer to map the same amount of assets to Chain B, and complete merchant collections with zero slippage. For users, the payment path is no different from traditional card payments.

RWA secondary market matching: Assuming that Tokenized Treasury bonds are issued on the OP Stack chain, institutional market makers can manage positions on the Berachain side and quote on the Arbitrum side. The bottom-level net settlement is completed by Cycle aggregation, which avoids the risk of price spread caused by bridging delay.

Cross-border wages/supply chain settlement: Enterprises pay in stablecoins at LATAM, suppliers instantly redeem local fiat currency in SEA, and through Cycle automatic path optimization and batch net amount, it can save 50%+ handling fees and 1-2 working days of arrival time compared to traditional SWIFT.

4.4 The long-term impact of Cycle on the track

The cost curve is shifted downward: the marginal cost of multi-chain issuance and settlement is approaching zero, and the issuance threshold of RWA is significantly lowered.

Improved liquidity depth: unified liquidity routing reduces fragmentation, and stablecoins and RWA can act as collateral or payment media on more chains.

Compliance bridge improvement: Standardized APIs and verifiable status proofs provide real-time data interfaces for auditors and regulators, and accelerate the formation of the compliance framework. **

V. Growth Leverage and Ecological Flywheel: Cycle's Business Perspective

5.1 Quantitative Opportunities: From "Nikita DeFi" to "Triple Billion Dollar Real Assets"

· DeFi user base: According to DeFiLlama's 2025 data, the active wallets on the entire network are only less than 20 M; if the threshold for multi-chain is completely smoothed, referring to the penetration curve of mobile payment from early test to popularization, it is not an exaggeration to expand exponentially to 100 M – 150 M in five years;

· Stablecoin market: The latest total market value has exceeded USD 250 B; if the annual global cross-border payment scale is USD 150 T (McKinsey, 2024), even if 1% is moved to the chain, the settlement network is a USD 1.5 T clearable flow;

· RWA Potential: The BCG report expects the on-chain real assets to reach USD 16 T in 2030; these assets require a safe, low-friction cross-chain liquidity layer.

5.2 Income structure: multi-source cash flow rather than single-point game

C-end: For example, Golden Goose has created more than US$200,000 in-app purchases and strategy sharing in the first two quarters of 2025; with the continuous increase in daily activity and re-investment rates, this curve has grown the fastest;

B-side: Cycle SDK adopts a mixed model of subscription + transaction commission; once more DApps hand over the settlement to Cycle, SDK fees and enterprise customization services will bring predictable annual fee income;

Infrastructure: Rollin/Rollout Although the inter-chain settlement fee starts at a low level, with the simultaneous access of 20+ chains and the daily cross-chain volume increasing to tens of millions or even billions of dollars, its "infrastructure tax collection" will become the most stable cash flow.

Key points: The revenue side shows C-side consumption (fast money) + B-side subscription (stable money) + infrastructure tax collection (long tail) three levels of progress to avoid relying on a single hot product or airdrop speculation.

5.3 User funnel: Let Web2 flow naturally to the chain

Cycle is not "another cross-chain bridge", but instead makes the logic of the cross-chain bridge into an invisible public base, which makes it a natural lever for superimposing traffic entrances.

When the promotion side first exposes TikTok and X videos, then use the "Coin Wallet Installation" login page to guide the audience into the site. Afterwards, one-click binding and fiat currency direct charging allow customers to complete account activation; each level of the funnel has established quantifiable KPIs, so that marketing budget and product optimization can be accurately iterated, rather than relying on airdrops to attract attention.

When new liquidity is transferred to Cycle through Rollin/Rolout, it not only directly contributes the handling fee, but also increases the strategic capacity and yield of C-end products; higher returns attract more C-end users and funds, promoting the continued expansion of liquidity. At the same time, the revenue demonstration will attract developers to adopt the Cycle SDK and reuse the same settlement layer in DEX, lending, chain games, payment gateways and other scenarios. The more developers, the higher the capital turnover rate, the lower the handling fee, and the faster the flywheel rotates.

6. Liquidity Hub - Inject liquidity into the underlying settlement layer

Cycle Network announced that it will launch the public beta of Cycle Liquidity Hub this week, opening the underlying liquidity pool to any user holding USDC or USDT. Unlike traditional liquidity mining that locks funds into a single protocol, funds in Liquidity Hub will be injected directly into Cycle's multi-chain settlement buffer to serve as real-time liquidation reserves for Rollin/Rollout.

As of mid-June, the Cycle mainnet has obtained more than 400M USD TVL funding protection through Symbiotic's shared security mechanism, ranking among the top three in the Symbiotic network and becoming one of the most core multi-link settlement networks under its heavy staking system. This means that the multi-chain liquidity and settlement operations carried by Cycle are running on a high security basis supported by real assets.

This means that Cycle users are not only participants, but also co-constructors of the settlement network: your stablecoin not only pursues profits, but also provides deep liquidity for the multi-chain clearing system, directly enhancing the funding efficiency and security redundancy of all DApps.

Conclusion: The "key link" of the popular era in the Web 3

From the dial-up era to mobile Internet, from check clearing to payment in seconds, every reconstruction of infrastructure is an upgrade of the value transmission paradigm. In the world of Web3, the real "popularization storm" is never born from a single protocol or hot narrative, but comes from the joint evolution of underlying trust and experience.

It is at such a time node that Cycle Network has proposed a new answer: using chain abstraction to reshape the interaction paradigm, using unified settlement to break liquidity barriers, and building a multi-chain clearing network without bridges on the vision of "any asset, any chain, one click" -allowing the flow of value on the chain is no longer a technological gamble, but a daily life.

When stablecoins and RWA become the main force of on-chain assets, and when the new generation of users access Web3 through games, content, and payments, Cycle not only provides a path, but also becomes a high-speed channel for trust to freely shuttle between multiple chains.

In the future, Web3 applications will no longer ask "what chain is on", but will be used to "it is there" just like we use electricity and network today. And that invisible but powerful value path is likely to be called Cycle. The cloud native era on the chain has begun.
