#以太坊大户持仓变化 ZenChain Completes Multi-Million Dollar Funding Round, Cross-Chain Interoperability Track Heats Up

Recently, liquidity issues in both the Bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems have come back into focus. ZenChain, a new project, has just announced funding progress—an $8.5 million institutional round has closed, with an additional $1.5 million in angel funding in progress. Investors include Watermelon Capital, DWF Labs, and Genesis Capital, all of which have experience in multi-chain ecosystem deployments.

What are they building? Simply put, they're establishing interoperability channels between Bitcoin Ordinals and EVM-compatible chains. It sounds abstract, but the practical impact is concrete—assets on the Bitcoin network can flow to Ethereum and other EVM chains to participate in DeFi or gaming; conversely, applications in the Ethereum ecosystem can connect to the Bitcoin network. This isn't just a simple cross-chain bridge, but rather building a decentralized underlying protocol.

The multi-chain world today is indeed fragmented. Assets are scattered across different chains, liquidity is fragmented, and user experience is fragmented. Each cross-chain transfer involves risks and costs. If ZenChain can reduce these frictions, the efficiency gains for the entire ecosystem would be significant.

What's your take on this direction? Can interoperability between Bitcoin and Ethereum truly solve multi-chain fragmentation?

Welcome to discuss.
