Interlink by Union Lagos, Nigeria is emerging as the first sovereign interoperability layer, offering a groundbreaking approach to bridging appchains, Layer 1s (L1s), and Layer 2s (L2s) without relying on traditional trust-based systems like oracles, multi-signatures, or MPC (multi-party computation).
Unlike existing bridging solutions that compromise on either decentralization, trustlessness, or permissionless access—what is known as the sovereign bridging trilemma—Union fully resolves these trade-offs by leveraging cutting-edge Zero-Knowledge (ZK) cryptography.
This next-generation framework ensures a truly trustless environment for blockchain interoperability.
Union’s technology allows chains to verify messages and transactions without external dependencies or third-party intermediaries, dramatically increasing the security and reliability of cross-chain communication.
This is particularly vital in a blockchain ecosystem that is quickly expanding and increasingly fragmented.
Union’s flagship product, ETH to IBC, exemplifies this innovation by enabling seamless and trustless communication between Ethereum and the Cosmos ecosystem via the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol (IBC).
With this solution, developers and users can execute cross-chain functions in a way that is efficient, secure, and fully decentralized.
​
​Founded and supported by industry pioneers from Consensys, Tokensoft, and Polygon, Union is not just another bridging protocol—it represents a paradigm shift in how blockchain networks interact.
Its novel consensus framework, combined with robust ZK cryptography, is paving the way for a horizontally scaled Web3 ecosystem.
By eliminating trust assumptions and enabling permissionless connectivity, Union is laying the foundation for a future where thousands of blockchains can operate in harmony.
As a contributor to multi-chain movement, Union is future-proofing blockchain interoperability, offering a secure and scalable infrastructure that empowers decentralized applications and ecosystems to thrive across networks.
