Currently Beamer doesn’t have any native token and also having a Beamer’s Quest Campaign On Galxe. So possible retroactive airdrop for early users.

💭What’s Beamer Bridge?

Beamer Bridge

Beamer Bridge enables direct ERC20 asset transfers between any two EVM compatible rollups, without transiting via Layer 1(L1). Right now, Beamer bridge is available on Optimisim, Arbitrum and Boba mainnet. More network will be added in future.

Advantages of Beamer Bridge:

  • Blazing Fast

  • Exact Amounts

  • Easy Fees Super

  • Simple Security of Ethereum L1

So users can beam ERC20 assets between EVM compatible rollups with certainty, speed and security.

💭How Does Beamer Bridge Work?

There are two types of rollups: optimistic rollups & zero-Knowledge rollups. Beamer provides users with optimistic bridging services. Here’s how it works:

  • Users request bridge service from one rollup (R1) to another rollup (R2) by sending tokens & service fees to Beamer Contract.

  • Agents settle the request by sending tokens to target rollup (R2) and claim the tokens & Fees From Beamer Contract on R1.

  • In case false claims made, escalation game (security mechanism) is initialed to penalize agents for making false claims.

Beamer is fully decentralized because the core protocol and community team do not run agents.
