Global Vulnerabilities in Cross-chain Bridges
According to Chainalysis 2025 data, a staggering 73% of cross-chain bridges worldwide are found to have vulnerabilities. This raises significant concerns for investors and users alike, as the risk of losing assets increases with each insecure bridge.
Understanding Cross-chain Bridges
Imagine you’re at a currency exchange booth while traveling abroad; that’s essentially what a cross-chain bridge does. It allows digital assets to move seamlessly between different blockchain networks. However, just like some money changers might not be legitimate, some bridges can put your assets at risk if not audited properly.
Why Zero-Knowledge Proofs Matter
Zero-knowledge proofs are like a secret handshake; they let you prove your identity without revealing any of your personal information. In the context of blockchain, these proofs enhance privacy and security, making transactions safer and more confidential.
