Bridge
Stake DAO tokens are available across multiple chains via CCIP and LayerZero.
Bridgeable Tokens
| Token Type | Why Cross-Chain |
|---|---|
| sdTokens | Some Liquid Lockers exist on non-Ethereum chains (e.g., MAV Locker) |
| Wrappers | asdCRV and vsdCRV provide benefits by simply holding—bridging increases accessibility |
| SDT | Required for incentives and liquidity across chains |
How Bridging Works
Both CCIP and LayerZero use a lock-and-mint mechanism:
- Bridging from native chain: Lock tokens on the source chain, mint a wrapped version on the destination
- Bridging to native chain: Burn the wrapped version, unlock native tokens
LayerZero requires tokens to implement the OFT (Omnichain Fungible Token) standard. For existing tokens, an OFT Adapter handles the bridging logic.
See the bridging guide for step-by-step instructions.
