Cross-Chain Bridge Market Review 2025: Transaction Volume Hits New High, Landscape Quietly Changes With the resurgence of DeFi enthusiasm in the crypto market, on-chain activities have significantly increased. In the process of interconnecting different blockchain networks, cross-chain bridges play a key role. The activity of cross-chain bridges not only reflects the overall heat of on-chain activities but also accurately reflects the demand for fund flows between different public chains. This article will comprehensively review the performance of leading cross-chain bridges since 2025. Market Overview: Cross-chain transaction volume has been increasing year by year, while the number of transactions remains stable. The overall data on cross-chain bridges shows that they will enter an active period starting from the end of 2024. The total amount of cross-chain transactions in September 2024 is approximately $18.6 billion, rapidly increasing to $50 billion by November, an increase of about 188%. After entering 2025, the activity level will continue to remain high. In July 2025, the on-chain monthly cross-chain transaction volume reached $56.1 billion, setting a new historical record.

In 2025, the cross-chain bridges market will reach a new high in trading volume, but the number of transactions will not change much, primarily driven by large transactions. Ethereum remains dominant, with Sonic and Starknet performing outstandingly. LayerZero and Hyperliquid lead in cross-chain applications, while Across, StarGate, and deBridge demonstrate differentiated competition, reflecting the market's complexity and potential.

Since July, #deBridge# is very special in the Solana ecosystem buyback rankings. An absolute amount of $3M, while not the largest, but the market share reached 3.3%, ranking first on the list, This means that its investment in price buybacks is significantly higher than that of comparable projects. The reason behind it is very straightforward: -deBridge injects 100% of protocol revenue into reserves, continuously buying $DBR and accumulating assets. - The current reserve pool holds 1.75% of the total supply (175M $DBR), with USDC usage accumulating to 3.69 million USD. The Treasury assets have reached $30.48M, and there is a stable cash inflow daily, providing long-term fuel for buybacks. The value accumulation brought by this mechanism is one of the underlying logics that makes me optimistic about $DBR in the future. Another easily overlooked aspect is precise payment collection. Cross-chain settlement, Gas, slippage, LP sharing and other multi-layer costs, Generally, it will lead to a discrepancy between the amount received and the amount entered; everyone has experienced this kind of situation. deBridge directly achieves "input as much as you want, receive as much as you want" at this point, eliminating all extra friction costs. This experience advantage will create significant user stickiness against the backdrop of the continuously growing demand for cross-chain payments. If an agreement maximizes both the buyback/reserve accumulation and product experience dimensions at the same time, the probability of realizing long-term value will significantly increase. This is also why I believe that $DBR still has room for exceptional performance in the coming quarters. Make sure to stand with us at the place where long-term value occurs. $DRB, blue-chip stock.

Crypto market dynamics: Ethereum holds the 3000 USD threshold, Bitcoin's 115,000 USD support faces a test. Market Overview The $3.1 billion renovation costs at the Federal Reserve headquarters have sparked controversy, with Trump personally going to apply pressure and call for interest rate cuts. Although the idea of firing Powell has been temporarily shelved, White House officials and Republican lawmakers are still using this as a reason to attack Powell's credibility in an attempt to influence interest rate policy. Analysts believe this is an unconventional public relations tactic aimed at both pushing for rate cuts and possibly diverting public attention from other controversies. However, the current financial environment in the U.S. is actually quite loose, which contradicts Trump's demand for significant rate cuts. Economic indicators show that the financial conditions in the U.S. are in an extremely loose state: the Chicago Fed's broad financial conditions index has hit a three-year low, major stock indices continue to refresh historical highs, the size of money market funds has reached $7.1 trillion, and household deposits remain at $4.46 trillion.
