The Blockchain Bridge

Blockchain technology has been accompanied by many benefits which have made it a great alternative in finance and other suitable sectors where it's been utilized to effectively enjoy some of those advantages. From Decentralization, Immutability, Transparency, and so on, the advantages are numerous, what about lending funds to earn interest?

Lending out the funds in an ecosystem designed for that doesn't cost you stress, and you don't have to keep reminding anyone about the return and so on, in essence, you have supplied into a lending pool while the protocol utilizes it for those in need of loan while you earn interests. That said, these numerous products and benefits of the blockchain seem not enough at a point, especially with some limitations.

The Lack of Interoperability feature has been one of the notable early problems associated with the blockchain, that is, a limitation that hinders a user from using his/her assets based on a blockchain freely without any hurdles, on another blockchain. For instance, a user cannot trade TRC-20 token on the Ethereum-based wallet unless it's exchanged for ERC-20 before it can be used, and other examples like that.

The whole process is time/resource consuming but there is a solution, the blockchain bridge. Bridges in blockchain have enabled easy interaction between blockchains using the tokens of one easily on the other without having to exchange them before they can be utilized on the choice blockchain. The contest is about a solution to one of the blockchain limitations and we want to hear about your understanding of the context.
