Bridges

Cross-chain bridge benchmarks, live.

Two live benches, sampled every five minutes from three regions (EU-West, US-East, Singapore). One measures the all-in cost of bridging $300 USDC across four Solana/Base/Arbitrum/HyperCore corridors. The other measures how fast each bridge returns a usable quote from each origin. Same corridors, same notional.

Fee by corridor

full p50/p99 breakdown

All-in fee p50 per provider per route. Cross-corridor averages above can hide large per-route spreads — the cheapest bridge on Sol to Base is often not the cheapest on Arb to Sol.

Green = cheapest p50 on that corridor. p99 in grey. — = not quoted. All-in cost: fees + slippage + gas at $300 USDC, trailing 24h.

Three pricing architectures

Intent layers

Mobula, Relay, Across, Near Intents

Compress fees, slippage and destination gas into a single solver-quoted spread. Competitive on liquid corridors where multiple solvers compete on the same route.

Aggregators

LI.FI, Squid, Socket

Route through the cheapest available underlying bridge plus a thin markup. Benefit is route coverage: they surface paths that no single protocol quotes. Squid and Socket cover EVM corridors only.

Direct protocols

deBridge

Charge a native-token fee front-loaded into the quote. Fixed fee dominates at $300 notional; the leaderboard re-orders at $10k where that component dilutes.

Corridors measured

Sol to BaseBase to ArbArb to SolArb to HyperCore

Each provider may only quote a subset of corridors. The corridor matrix above shows which ones are supported and at what cost. Full p50/p90/p99 splits with regional breakdown are on the bridge-fee and bridge-quote-latency bench pages.

Methodology

Fee column: bridge_cost_percent (all-in: fees + slippage + destination gas) at $300 USDC, p50 over the trailing 24h averaged across corridors each provider supports. Quote latency: wall-clock time from request send to last byte received, p50 via histogram_quantile(0.50, sum by (le) (rate(bridge_quote_latency_ms_bucket[24h]))). Benches run from three regions (EU-West Amsterdam, US-East, Singapore); regional breakdown on individual bench pages. Failures (quote_failed, unsupported route, timeout) excluded from aggregates, counted toward success rate.
