Quick Take Fraxtal’s mainnet is now accessible to users through its official bridge. This follows Fraxtal’s restricted mainnet, initially for selected partner apps.

Frax opens bridge access to Layer 2 network Fraxtal; plans reward snapshot today image 0DeFi project Frax Finance opened a bridge to Fraxtal, its new Ethereum Layer 2 network, facilitating the transfer of funds for individual users.

This move follows the network’s restricted mainnet launch , initially available only to selected partner applications, including infrastructure providers such as Safe, Chainlink, Axelar and LayerZero.

The expansion lets users deposit assets, including ETH, CRV, sfxETH, and others from Ethereum to Fraxtal.

Developed as an Ethereum-compatible optimistic rollup using the OP Stack, Fraxtal is set to become part of the Optimism Superchain ecosystem, aligning with other players like the Coinbase-backed Base , Mode, Aevo , Lyra and Zora. The network aims to serve as a dapps platform with a particular emphasis on decentralized finance.

Frax is the creator of the decentralized Frax stablecoin and liquid staking derivative Frax Ether, supporting a total value locked of over $1 billion.

Reward snapshot

In a related development, the Frax team is set to take a snapshot of all vote-escrowed stakers of Frax Shares (veFXS) on the Ethereum mainnet today. These participants will receive a distribution in the form of Fraxtal (FXTL) points in some days, which may convert into a new token.

The network will separately introduce what's known as the Flox incentive system that will reward users based on the amount of gas they spend on the network, encouraging active participation.
