We’re excited to announce that Micro3 has integrated Chainlink CCIP—the industry standard for secure cross-chain interoperability—across the Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, and Optimism mainnets. We’re leveraging CCIP’s arbitrary messaging functionality to build cross-chain NFTs, enabling our users access to their assets on different blockchains.

We selected CCIP as our preferred interoperability solution because Chainlink has the most proven track record of maintaining the highest standard of security and reliability in the Web3 industry. Furthermore, CCIP is backed by the Risk Management Network—a separate, independent network that continually monitors and verifies cross-chain operations for suspicious activity. This additional layer of security is particularly important given historical industry exploits and the billions in user funds lost due to insecure and unreliable cross-chain infrastructure.

Micro3 is a decentralized SocialFi mint-to-earn platform, empowering Web3 projects and individuals through a creator economy and curated social and onchain quests, NFT infrastructure-as-a-service, SocialFi revenue sharing through NFTs, and much more.

In order to help secure our cross-chain NFTs, we needed access to a highly secure and reliable interoperability solution. After reviewing various solutions, we integrated Chainlink CCIP because it provides a multitude of important benefits and features, such as:

• Time-tested security and reliability—CCIP’s consensus and messaging layer is powered by Chainlink decentralized oracle networks, which have already secured tens of billions of dollars for smart contracts and enabled over $9 trillion in onchain transaction value. CCIP also features additional layers of protection and reliability via the Risk Management Network and Smart Execution.

• Seamless integration—CCIP offers a unified cross-chain developer experience by providing a single, easy-to-integrate interface. Developers only need to integrate the CCIP Router onchain to start building secure cross-chain applications.

• Scalable architecture—CCIP eliminates the need for developers to write custom code for chain-specific integrations, while users can interact with any blockchain via a single interface.

• Future-proof—CCIP is built to support continuous updates, such as the integration of new blockchains, the introduction of advanced functionalities, and the addition of other defense-in-depth approaches to security. Thus, integrating with CCIP eliminates future switching costs should new cross-chain functionalities be needed.

“We’re excited to integrate the industry-standard Chainlink CCIP to help power secure cross-chain NFT transfers for Micro3. Security is paramount for our protocol, which is why we’re happy to integrate the only cross-chain solution with level-5 security.”—Jason, CEO of Micro3
