Our work usually pertains to Ethereum. A method is thru our cross-chain bridge protocol, BitTorrent Chain (BTTC), which connects customers throughout TRON, BNB Chain, and Ethereum, with extra Layer 1s to help sooner or later. Builders on the BitTorrent Chain can launch their initiatives and instantly allow customers of every of those very giant chains to entry their purposes.
