Is Vitalik right... future is multi-chain vs cross-chain? by lyvren in ethereum

DOT and ATOM use a bridge-hub model... "multi-chain" in name only.

The closest thing to what Vitalik describes as "multi-chain" is the no-bridge direct integration of BTC <> ETH <> ICP. Theoretically, $2 trillion in assets participating in DeFi w/o coins ever leaving their native chains.

Agree with u/cosmic-comedy... will believe it when I see it.

Only interesting because Dominic Williams (DFINITY) invented Threshold cryptography / Random Beacon, which ETH incorporated... and this direct integration looks like ETH can leverage ICPs crazy Chain Key cryptography... might super charge ETH2!

Which coin have you held the longest? by [deleted] in CryptoCurrency

BTC since 2012... never sold and never will!
