Across Protocol Bridge: Volume, Relayer Fees and Fill Times

How much moves through the Across bridge on each route, what does it cost and how fast do relayers fill it?

Transfers bridged through Across by route, the fees users paid, how fast relayers filled them and the bundles that repaid the relayers.

About

What it answers, and for whom.

Across is an intent-based bridge. A user deposits tokens into the SpokePool on one chain and states what should arrive on another; a relayer delivers it on the destination from its own funds, often within seconds, and is repaid later. Repayments are grouped into root bundles proposed to the HubPool on Ethereum and checked through UMA's optimistic oracle, where anyone can dispute a wrong bundle.

This dashboard follows that cycle from the contracts: deposits matched to fills, the fee each user paid, how long each fill took, the relayers doing the filling and the bundles that settled their repayments. It also tracks the liquidity in the HubPool, which backs relayer refunds and the slow fills made when no relayer steps in.

Method

How it will be measured.

Every figure will be read at a block, kept with its source and its exact read, and open a receipt anyone can re-check.

How receipts work →
  1. Deposits and fills are read from each chain's SpokePool deposit and fill events and matched by origin chain and deposit id, so each transfer counts once and its fill time is the gap between the two blocks.
  2. The fee a user paid is the input amount minus the output amount, valued at the deposit block; the part paid to HubPool liquidity providers is read from the relayer's refund in the executed bundle.
  3. Root bundles are read from the HubPool's proposal, dispute and execution events, with the proposer, the bond and the challenge window recorded.
  4. HubPool liquidity is read from the pool's reserves for each token at the day's last block, valued at oracle prices.

Questions

Questions people ask.

How does Across Protocol work?

A user deposits into the Across SpokePool on the origin chain. A relayer sends the user the requested tokens on the destination chain from its own balance, then asks to be repaid. Repayments are batched into bundles that settle on Ethereum after a challenge window, backed by UMA's optimistic oracle.

How long does an Across transfer take?

Most transfers are filled as soon as a relayer sees the deposit, often within seconds, because the relayer takes on the wait for settlement. Fill time depends on the route and the token, and the dashboard shows the median per route.

What fees does Across charge?

The user receives slightly less than they deposit. The difference pays the relayer for gas and for lending its capital until repayment, plus a fee to the liquidity providers whose funds back the system. The dashboard measures the total and splits out the liquidity provider part.

What is a slow fill on Across?

When no relayer fills a deposit, a slow fill can be requested and the protocol fills it from SpokePool funds once the next bundle is executed. Slow fills take longer but still deliver; the dashboard counts how often they happen.

What role does UMA play in Across?

UMA's optimistic oracle guards the root bundles that decide who gets repaid. A proposer posts a bundle with a bond, and anyone can dispute it during the challenge window; disputes are settled by UMA token holders, and undisputed bundles are executed.

Relayer
An operator who fills Across deposits on the destination chain with its own funds and is repaid through a root bundle.
Root bundle
A set of Merkle roots proposed to the HubPool that says which relayers to repay, how much and on which chain.
HubPool
The Across contract on Ethereum that holds liquidity provider funds and settles root bundles.
