1/5 Mythbusters: Chain Abstraction Edition ❌ Myth: Chain abstraction removes bridges ✅ Fact: It makes bridges invisible Abstraction doesn’t kill the underlying tech, it hides the complexity by automating the steps behind the scenes So how does that work?

2/5 Lots of everyday processes are really multiple steps glued together Take shifting gears in a manual car: Press clutch → shift gear → add gas → release clutch Automatic transmission bundles all that into one action The steps still exist, the car just does them for you

3/5 Abstraction hides complexity, not deletes it Examples are everywhere: → Programming languages abstract hardware instructions → Data types abstract memory operations → APIs abstract data exchange between systems The machinery is still there, you just don’t deal with it

4/5 Chain abstraction works the same way for cross-chain actions Bridging still happens, it’s just automated and folded into other operations like: → Cross-chain swaps → Cross-chain LP provisioning Users don’t need to switch networks, pick routes, or click ten confirmations

5/5 TLDR: → Abstraction turns multi-step tasks into a single action → Chain abstraction bundles bridging into swaps/LP flows → Cross-chain actions become simple, seamless, & invisible Bridges don’t disappear, friction does Another myth cleared. What should we break next? 🫢
