About Socket Protocol

Socket Protocol is a cross-chain interoperability infrastructure that enables seamless token transfers and application connectivity across blockchains. Socket aggregates multiple bridge protocols (Hop, Across, Stargate, and others) to find optimal routes for cross-chain transactions based on fees, speed, and security. Applications can integrate Socket's API to give users the best cross-chain experience without users needing to manually choose which bridge to use. The Bungee Exchange is Socket's flagship consumer product for optimized cross-chain bridging. SOCKET is the governance token for the Socket ecosystem.
