The Unified LxLy Bridge is the backbone of the Aggregation Layer. It is designed to act as a common way for connected EVM chains to exchange messages and assets safely. Implementations of this bridge for non-evm chains are in progress and will be linked and included when teams have made them available.

### AggLayer v1

AggLayer v1 is a simple system which allows blockchains which are connected to the Unified LxLy bridge to transmit proofs to Ethereum safely. This system is designed primarily to serve CDK chains utilizing full validity proofs with which it acts as security layer, checking proof validity before settling directly to Ethereum.

Bridge and Call is a smart contract framework which allows applications to take advantage of the Unified LxLy Bridge and the Aggregation Layer to unlock cross-chain interactions for their application. Using Bridge and Call a user can use funds on a source chain to directly interact with an application running on a destination chain

### Gas Porter

Gas Porter lets you bridge gas across AggLayer, along tokens. It works by converting some amount of the gas token of the current chain to the gas token of a destination chain. This way, you'll be ready to use the destination chain right away.

## Specification (Coming Soon)

A draft specification describing the decentralized vision of the AggLayer is coming soon. This will be aimed primarily at blockchain developers and integrators looking to understand the principals at work, and will be open for feedback and contribution to the broad community.
