LI.FI, a popular cross-chain bridge and DEX aggregation protocol, has announced it’s spreading its wings and expanding to Solana. Envisioning an enhanced user experience across dApps, LI.FI promises to enable seamless in-app swapping and bridging for Solana users.

Solana users across the ecosystem may already be familiar with LI.FI, following the protocol’s successful integration with the Phantom wallet last year. The landmark collaboration helped to facilitate millions of in trading volume between Solana and EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) networks, eradicating friction between chains.

As part of its expansion into the Solana ecosystem, LI.FI on Solana aims to further streamline cross-chain interactions through several protocol enhancements, including:

  • A Multitude of Bridging Options - Leveraging a variety of popular cross-chain bridges, such as Mayan Finance (powered by Wormhole) and the Circle CCTP, to offer users the most efficient pathways available.

  • Solana Token Swaps - Powered by Jupiter, Solana’s leading DEX aggregator, LI.Fi facilitates a highly efficient and cost-effective platform for trading Solana-based tokens at the best prices on the market.

"We are committed to continuously enhancing the user experience for cross-chain interactions. This expansion to Solana allows applications to offer users a seamless and secure solution for managing their assets within familiar application environments on Solana." - Philipp Zentner, LI.FI Founder and CEO

These updates have already been deployed across LI.Fi-integrated applications, providing users with greater flexibility. Developers can incorporate these integrations into their applications through the LI.FI API, SDK, and LI.FI Widget.

Why Should Solana Developers Consider Using LI.FI?

Alongside an updated product suite and improved technological platform, LI.FI proposing the following improvements to developer quality of life.

  • Simplified Integration - LI.FI takes care of the complexities and heavy lifting surrounding cross-chain bridges and token swaps, allowing developers to design powerful products without being distracted by infrastructure concerns.

  • Seamless User Experience - LI.FI offers a frictionless and simplified in-app experience, meaning that consumers can access a comprehensive range of DeFi tools within a familiar environment.

  • Boosted Activity - Solana season is in full swing. Leveraging LI.FI’s product suite gives developers the opportunity to tap into Solana’s surging user base.

  • Additional Revenue Generation - Developers can further monetize their platforms by charging fees on swaps and token bridging.

  • Access Deep Liquidity - LI.Fi’s protocol harnesses liquidity from hundreds of applications across over 20 blockchains. Through LI.FI, developers can provide their users with deep and diverse liquidity throughout the blockchain industry.

What’s Next for LI.FI?

LI.FI’s ultimate goal is to make DeFi simpler for users, no matter what chain they’re on. Committed to abstracting away the confusing restrictions of a multichain world, LI.FI aims to overcome some of the most common obstacles faced by crypto applications.

In the coming weeks, LI.FI intends to support SVM (Solana Virtual Machine) chains like Eclipse into its growing protocol. 

By aggregating liquidity sources across the crypto ecosystem and consolidating a range of essential services into one API, LI.FI intends to make fragmented liquidity, fragmented infrastructure, and dispersed data a thing of the past.
