FAQ

What is a bridge?

A bridge is a method of moving token assets from one blockchain network to another.

Which blockchains and tokens do you support?

Currently we support Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Fantom and AVAX. Other chains will continue to be added and suggestions for new chains to be supported can be made to the Catoshi team. The following projects currently bridge via The Crossing; Catoshi, ShihTzu and Kishimoto.

How long does it take to complete a bridge transaction?

The bridging transactions from one chain to another take a few minutes and can take up to 10 minutes, depending on network conditions. If you have to wait longer than an hour please contact the team.

How long does a project onboarding take?

If a project wishes to make use of The Crossing the onboarding of your project to the bridge takes approximately 10 days (this can be fast-tracked). Our white label bridging solutions are aimed to be delivered in 2 weeks.

What security measures do you have?

We have been audited by Spade. The bridge is also being independently audited by a 3rd party. Each token that gets added to the bridge also undergoes an independent audit by Spade Tech (spadetech.io).

Each token that joins the bridge has its own server and private keys which are controlled by the token’s own project team, not the Catoshi team. This means that each onboarded project is responsible for the security of their own bridge and each bridge asset is secured independently of the others.

What is the fee to use the bridge?

Each bridge transaction is subject to gas fees + a 0.3% token fee which is collected by the Catoshi project.

Who do I contact for support?

You can contact the Catoshi team via their Telegram channel (https://t.me/originalcatoshi), Twitter (@OriginalCatoshi) or email us ([email protected]) or our bridge partners Spade Tech ([email protected]).

What other services are available?

The Catoshi project together with its close partners can provide a complete package; set up bridging (via The Crossing), auditing (spadetech.io) and farming with Toad (padswap.exchange) and Shiba Fantom (shibafantom.finance).

We also now have our bespoke white label bridging service. Contact the team on telegram to find out more (https://t.me/originalcatoshi).

Who made the bridge?

The bridge was built by the Catoshi development team with support from our development partner Spade Tech (spadetech.io).
