Owlto Finance

Owlto Finance is decentralized Cross-Rollup bridge, focusing on enabling direct and efficient asset transfers between Rollups. This approach circumvents the traditional need for assets to move through the mainnet, reducing transaction times and costs, and catering specifically to the DeFi, NFT, and DEX sectors' need for seamless Layer 2 asset mobility. Owlto Finance operates without its own token and is self-bootstrapped.

It provides users with a comprehensive interface to search transactions, view account balances, verify and interact with smart contracts, and engage with decentralized applications across various Ethereum networks, including mainnets, testnets, sidechains, and Layer 2 solutions. Unlike centralized, closed-source explorers, Blockscout offers transparency and flexibility, supporting hundreds of chains and rollups within the broader blockchain ecosystem, such as Ethereum, Cosmos, Polkadot, Avalanche, and Near.
