The frontend for Gravity Bridge is LIVE 🚀 The first iteration sends DAI, ETH, and USDC over to Cosmos. Feels like Keplr and MetaMask threw a party, and everyone's invited 🎉. Check it out: spacestation.zone. Hat tip to @CosmostationVD for their great work! 🛸🦡
🚀Gravity Bridge is live!🚀
Mainnet was achieved via a pioneering decentralized launch. Our thanks to the teams, validators and community members now supporting the chain and deploying the front end, wallet integration and other tools to take GB to the next level🙌
Watch the skies! 👀🛸 Today three Gravity Bridge proposals—for 🪂 airdrops 🪂 to the ATOM, Osmosis, and ION communities—are live! A big thanks to @Figment_io for their governance initiative. Find the proposals over here: commonwealth.im/gravity-brid…
Gravity Bridge just added another lane! Bi-directional traffic (ETH->COSMOS, COSMOS->ETH) is now just a click away via Spacestation.zone (w/Keplr & Metamask support) and enabled IBC lets you easily send bridged assets to your @osmosis (or other) wallets.
🧵
Gazing up at the stars 👀🌌 what do they tell us? That interoperable NFTs on Cosmos are coming! 🌠 Welcome, @StargazeZone—the latest Cosmos project to cross the bridge into the Ethereum ecosystem. 🛸 stargaze.zone/
🎉 Full @keplrwallet support for Gravity Bridge is online! Refresh your browser and have a look. 👀 Now listed in the primary list, send/IBC send enabled, proper balance display etc.
PS: Staking button live, but the landing page is 🏗️ (check back tomorrow to stake via Keplr)
🚨 $ATOM is crossing the bridge! A momentous milestone for Gravity's ongoing partnership with @cosmos and the long shared vision for a fully connected Interchain—unlocking liquidity and innovation between COSMOS/ETH ecosystems. @interchain_io@tendermintHQow.ly/Vl7t50I0CCb
Appreciate the feedback and the passion of atom community! And, we hear you - you want docs! We have been working on that together with key Cosmos entities, so that we provide clear and open communications. Appreciate your patience for just a bit longer.
It’s time!!!
Please welcome our 32nd #IBCGang family member @gravity_bridge!
ATOM, and any other asset in the Cosmos ecosystem, will be able to trade on Uniswap and other Ethereum AMMs, and interact with Ethereum DeFi like any ERC20 token.

🎉 Congratulations to @StargazeZone team on successful passing of ICS721 Super Team prop 191! 🦸♂️🦸♀️💫
mintscan.io/stargaze/proposa…
ICS721 enables transfers of NFTs between chains and with the help of Gravity Bridge will allow Stargaze to transfer NFTs from Ethereum.
As part of the focus on UX, Gravity Bridge is implementing Bech32 forwarding from the @osmosis team. Auto-IBC forwarding allows any basic wallet to withdraw assets from Ethereum (via Gravity) on to a destination Cosmos chain with one command

In case you missed it, @gravity_bridge just integrated $CMDX
Our integration will pave the way for Comdex to benefit from the increased #liquidity coming from the Ethereum ecosystem. 💧
Happy Birthday to me… 😎
One year ago, we launched mainnet Gravity Bridge with over 100 validators.
Grateful for the builders, validators, stakers, and partners who have built bridges with us.
🎂🎈🎉
Here’s to another year of building our dream #blockchain#ecosystem!
Congrats to @StargazeZone on the successful and smooth launch of the marketplace!

Gravity is engineered to be gas efficient! Just 70,000 Gas @ 50 Gwei & $10 ⛽️🌉
Nomad: 250,000Gas @ 50 Gwei $35
Axelar: 400,000 Gas @ 50 Gwei $56 (you pay $10 + $20, Axelar pays $26)
☑️ secure, immutable contract (🚫 multisig)
☑️ decentralized & secured by 160+ validator set
☑️ over a year in production environment
👆is a part of an inevitable future. Multisig-secured bridges are destined to become a thing of the past.
Gravity Bridge has implemented ERC721 bridging (w/collab from @StargazeZone 🙌), but without an IBC standard they cannot be sent between chains. The #ICS721 workgroup is seeking devs from across Cosmos to implement an NFT/IBC standard for the ecosystem ow.ly/8O9u50JiX6m
Did you spot it? 👀 Two new projects on spacestation.zone today: @cheqd_io (building the trusted data network to catalyze 🧪 the self-sovereign identity 🪪 revolution) and @irisnetwork whose AMM protocol @CoinSwap_Space is expanding beyond the Cosmos ecosystem. 🚀
📈 Gravity Bridge TVL exceeds that of Axelar’s for the first time! 📈
Check out these volumes: 👀
- 102.6M: Axelar TVL
- 118.5M : Gravity TVL
Bridges are #Publicgoods & essential infrastructure. Thank you to the $GRAV community for your support. 🙏

COSMOS<>Gravity<>ETHEREUM
DYK: Gravity Bridge has been tested since 2020, and live since late 2021 (with bridged assets on several DEXs). The Gravity Bridge module has been used in production by @InjectiveLabs@sommfinance and @Umee_CrossChain for over six months. 20+ chains are integrating/bridging w/GB
One after another—new projects are adopting Gravity Bridge! Today's spotlight: @comdexofficial! An ecosystem of solutions to democratize finance and bridge 🌉 DeFi and Cefi & the latest project sending their token ($CMDX 👀) into the Ethereum ecosystem comdex.one
COSMOS->GRAV->ETH Transaction ⏳️ is dropping from ~$10/24hrs to ~$10/4hrs, due to 📈 volume + relayer optimizations! As volume growth continues the next target 🎯 is fee reduction (aiming for $5/4hrs). Greater volume = lower fees and faster transactions. spacestation.zone
