We are pleased to announce that Metis is now supported on LI.FI!

Applications on Metis can now onboard users easily from other EVM chains by integrating LI.FI’s SDK, API, or widget. Users can now effortlessly bridge to Metis on apps powered by LI.FI like Jumper, and start exploring the opportunities in the ecosystem.

Metis connectivity is enabled through our trusted bridging partners, including Connext, Stargate, and cBridge. Additionally, we have integrated swap capabilities on Metis through DEX aggregators such as OpenOcean.

The latest updates unlock the following features for users of LI.FI’s integration partners:

• Bridge assets from EVM chains to Metis.

Example: Bridge USDC from Arbitrum to m.USDC on Metis, via Connext.

• Swap assets on the Metis network.

Example: Exchange METIS for USDC via OpenOcean.

• Execute cross-chain swaps directly from other chains to the desired asset on Metis.

Example: Exchange ETH on Optimism for METIS, the native token of Metis, via a combination of Connext and OpenOcean.

The features mentioned above can be integrated into any application. For guidance on how to implement these features, please refer to our documentation:

• For an in-depth API integration, consult the API Reference.

• For a customized integration using the LI.FI SDK, see LI.FI SDK.

• For a quick integration of the LI.FI Widget, visit Widget Overview.

• To develop advanced cross-chain flows, check out our Cross-Chain Zaps feature.

To see LI.FI integrations in action, you can check out the following examples:

• MetaMask Bridges demonstrates API integration.

• Hyperliquid’s deposit flow provides an example of SDK integration.

• Superfluid showcases widget integration.

• Swell’s one-click staking flow gives a glimpse of what’s possible to build with zaps.

Why Bridge to Metis?

Metis is an Ethereum rollup that launched on mainnet in November 2021. Within its first six months, the Total Value Locked (TVL) soared to an impressive ~$750M.

In the past two years, the Metis team has been heads down building. This hard work is paying off, as the Metis ecosystem is seeing a resurgence of activity. The TVL on Metis jumped from $80 million to almost $700 million in just three months.

The ecosystem is poised for continued growth, with a wave of new apps launching, improved connectivity with other chains through bridges, and a generous incentive program of $4.6M in METIS tokens in the form of Metis Ecosystem Development Fund (Metis EDF).

These exciting developments point towards one thing: now is the perfect time to bridge to Metis.

We are thrilled to support Metis on this journey and are committed to helping applications on Metis attract new users and inject fresh liquidity into the ecosystem!
