What Are Bridges in Web3?
A bridge in blockchain technology refers to a mechanism that enables the transfer and communication of data and assets between different blockchain platforms.
It serves to overcome the interoperability challenges that arise from the existence of multiple, independent blockchains, facilitating seamless transactions and interactions across these otherwise isolated networks. By linking distinct blockchains, bridges enhance the versatility and utility of digital assets, promoting a more integrated and efficient ecosystem within the blockchain space.

Issues Faced Before Blast Partnership
"Public blockchains would frequently become overloaded during peak times and cause a knock-on impact for the Rhino.fi bridge."
The Rhino.fi bridge relies on high up-time, low latency and very high reliability. As bridges facilitate the seamless exchange of information and value, the underlying Web3 infrastructure must support high throughput, robust security protocols, and smart contract functionality to prevent fraud and ensure transaction integrity. Moreover, scalable and performant infrastructure is essential to accommodate the growing volume of cross-chain transactions, reduce transaction costs, and support the development of more complex decentralized applications.
