# Multi-Chain

> Bolt is live and proven on Sui. The architecture is chain-agnostic by design. Multichain expansion is on the roadmap.

## Live on Sui. Multi-chain by design.

The <Tooltip tip="Builds a fair price from a cross-venue composite, forecasts its near-term path, and posts one executable convergence price onchain.">Convergence Engine</Tooltip> observes markets across venues. The Execution Rail settles flow onchain. Neither component is bound to a single chain. What Bolt has proven on Sui (400K+ trades settled, 85+ downstream apps, capital turnover rates of up to 100x) is the same mechanism that will deploy on EVM, SVM, and other major chains.

## Why Sui first

Sui was the beachhead for three reasons.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Speed & Finality">
    Sub-second finality and high throughput mean the engine's pricing reaches the chain fast and the pool settles trades with minimal latency.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Composability">
    Sui's object model and programmable transaction blocks allow Bolt's <Tooltip tip="Bolt's onchain smart contract that validates prices and settles swaps through the liquidity pool.">Outpost</Tooltip> contracts to compose directly with lending protocols, aggregators, and other DeFi primitives in a single transaction.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Ecosystem Alignment">
    Sui aggregators Cetus, FlowX, and Aftermath integrated early. 85+ downstream apps now route through Bolt. The Sui ecosystem provided the first proof that convergence pricing produces better execution at scale.

## The expansion thesis

Synchronization is not a single-chain problem. An asset that trades on Sui, Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Solana needs one <Tooltip tip="The near-future fair price Bolt may lean toward when short-horizon signal is strong enough. Falls back to the composite when it is not.">convergence price</Tooltip> across all of them. The more chains and venues that Bolt covers, the more divergences the engine observes, and the sharper the convergence dataset becomes. Two expansion axes:

  <Column>
    #### More asset classes

    Tokenized RWAs are the current leading candidate for the next phase on Sui. \$30B+ in tokenized assets are onchain, but only a fraction are active in DeFi. One convergence price turns a listed asset into usable financial infrastructure: reliable collateral, trustworthy liquidations, routable flow. Stablecoins, BTC products, and commodities follow.
  </Column>

  <Column>
    #### More chains

    Each new chain adds venues and flow that compound the engine's dataset. The convergence price for an asset does not improve by going deeper on one chain alone. It improves by covering the full surface where that asset trades.
  </Column>
</Columns>

## What stays the same

The mechanism is portable. On every chain, Bolt deploys the same architecture:

1. The Convergence Engine ingests market data across venues.
2. The quoting engine computes the convergence price.
3. The oracle commits the price onchain.
4. Pools settle flow against the quote. Onchain flow and markout feed back to the engine over time.

The engine is cross-chain by construction. The Execution Rail adapts to each chain's settlement model. The dataset compounds across all of them.
