But it\u2019s not just the price action catching attention\u2014ICP\u2019s unique approach to bridging digital assets is positioning it as a safer alternative in a landscape plagued by cross-chain exploits.<\/p>\n
Rather than relying on centralized or third-party bridges, ICP has developed<\/a><\/strong> its own system that allows native integration of assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, and USDC into its network. These wrapped tokens\u2014ckBTC, ckETH, ckUSDT, and ckUSDC\u2014are pegged 1:1 to their originals but function entirely within ICP, avoiding the need for vulnerable external protocols.<\/p>\n At the heart of this system is Chain-Key cryptography, which locks the original asset on its native chain and mints an equivalent token within ICP. This eliminates the central points of failure that have cost users billions through bridge hacks since 2021.<\/p>\n
