About Axelar

Axelar (AXL) is a universal cross-chain communication network enabling dApps to connect across all major blockchain ecosystems. Unlike bridging solutions that require separate deployments for each chain pair, Axelar provides a universal routing layer — developers write one message, Axelar delivers it anywhere. Axelar connects Ethereum, Cosmos chains, EVM L2s, Polkadot, and non-EVM chains. The General Message Passing (GMP) feature allows arbitrary smart contract calls across chains. AXL is used for gas fees, staking by validators, and governance. Major protocols use Axelar for interchain tokens (USDC cross-chain, wBTC bridging).
