After successfully enabling cross-chain staking with uniETH tokens, the next step was to enhance uniETH's utility for holders. Thus, cBridge is now supporting the integration of uniETH with X Layer, a ZK-enhanced decentralized Ethereum Layer 2 network.

This marks Celer's inaugural integration with OKX's X Layer mainnet, commencing with the bidirectional bridging support for uniETH across the Ethereum mainnet. Additionally, X Layer has integrated Celer's inter-chain messaging infrastructure, unlocking diverse interoperability possibilities.

X Layer unifies the OKX and Ethereum communities, offering secure blockchain exposure and leveraging cryptographic ZK proofs for off-chain transaction verification and settlement. By linking the OKX and Polygon ecosystems, X Layer enhances user accessibility, fosters innovation, and empowers ecosystem builders.

Its Ethereum compatibility ensures seamless integration of existing smart contracts and tools with cost-effective transactions. X Layer prioritizes upgrades, data accessibility, and security, providing unified liquidity and swift finality.

Through its integration with X Layer, Celer supports uniETH, facilitating token transfer between Ethereum Mainnet and X Layer via the xAsset protocol. This enables uniETH holders to utilize their tokens on X Layer, unlocking additional utility.

X Layer and Celer have jointly integrated Celer's inter-chain messaging infrastructure into X Layer's technology stack, enabling developers to create dApps with cross-chain capabilities. This facilitates the development of dApps with cross-chain user experiences between X Layer and various external blockchains, enabling NFT bridging, cross-chain NFT buying and bidding, and cross-chain reward distribution.

The OKX-based X Layer network recently launched its public mainnet, providing developers with connectivity to major blockchain ecosystems.

Initially introduced with uniETH, Bedrock served as the primary liquid staking and restaking mechanism, later transitioning into the primary liquid staking mechanism on the ioTex network.

Celer Network, a blockchain interoperability solution, enables seamless user interaction with tokens and various blockchain applications such as DeFi, GameFi, and NFTs across multiple chains with a single click.
