What is Garden?

Garden is a cross-chain peer-to-peer bitcoin bridge.

Key Features

• Trustless Bitcoin Bridge: Garden Finance provides a trustless environment for bridging Bitcoin (BTC) to other assets across different blockchain networks. It uses atomic swaps, which are facilitated by Hashed Time-Locked Contracts (HTLCs), ensuring secure and decentralized transactions.

• Cross-Chain Swaps: Users can swap BTC for other tokens like Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) on Ethereum and Arbitrum chains. Recently, Garden Finance launched the first native Bitcoin bridge to the Base network, enabling direct swaps between BTC and cbBTC/USDC.

• Speed and Efficiency: Transactions are processed in under 10 minutes, making it one of the fastest Bitcoin bridges available.

• Decentralized Orderbook: Garden utilizes a decentralized orderbook system, which helps in efficient trade matching without the need for centralized custodians.
