Initial connection to other blockchains through the Shimmer bridge, a tool that transfers value between different blockchains including Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, Base, Arbitrum and Optimism, takes place today. This connectivity broadens the horizon for ShimmerEVM, enabling an exchange of assets and information across any application built on blockchains supported by LayerZero, an interoperability protocol.
