Cronos is live on deBridge
We’re excited to announce our support for Cronos, an Ethereum-compatible Layer 1 blockchain designed to bring real-world finance to billions, onchain.
Cronos aims to scale DeFi and GameFi by providing developers with the ability to rapidly port dApps from Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. It is an open-source project based on Ethermint, Cosmos SDK, and Tendermint.
What makes Cronos so special?
Users can now transfer assets between Cronos and any blockchain supported by deBridge. See what’s in store for you:
- EVM Compatibility: Cronos is fully EVM compatible. Developers can deploy contracts using the same tools and workflows they are already familiar with.
- Scalable: The Tendermint consensus is robust, fast, and cheap. The Cronos validator node ecosystem is carbon-neutral, thanks to its low energy consumption.
- Architecture: The Cronos consensus is referred to as a proof-of-authority (POA) consensus, as it is a permissioned variant of the proof-of-stake consensus.
- Reliable: Cronos EVM has not stopped delivering blocks. Since its inception, it has securely settled more than 100 million transactions.
deBridge Integrates Cronos
Cronos is our twentieth IaaS-initialized chain, instantly composable with 25 blockchains supported on deBridge. By subscribing to IaaS, Cronos now has access to:
- High-performance bridging: Cronos users can move at lightning speed from anywhere to Cronos and explore the dApps built on the blockchain. Anyone can bridge with near-instant settlement, deep liquidity, and protection from MEV and slippage.
- Transfers of authenticated messages: Cronos can securely transfer messages via a decentralized infrastructure across all our supported chains.
- Secure asset custody: dePort enables secure asset custody for everyone coming from the supported blockchains on deBridge. This allows projects or dApps to port tokens from any chain to enable utility in the Cronos ecosystem.

The three pillars facilitate full cross-chain interoperability for Cronos, enhancing the ecosystem's ability to grow its user base. This integration allows users to directly experience new dApps, while developers can effortlessly cross-compose between Cronos and the blockchain ecosystems on deBridge.
Any blockchain ecosystem (EVM or SVM) can initialize a deBridge IaaS subscription and connect to deBridge today.
What is deBridge IaaS?
deBridge IaaS is a turnkey solution for EVM and SVM blockchain ecosystems, both permissionless and permissioned. IaaS solves all three pillars of interoperability together:
- Liquidity transfers
- Transfers of authenticated messages
- Secure asset custody
Cronos is the twentieth blockchain to leverage deBridge IaaS for complete interoperability with the 25 other chains supported by deBridge.
