1/ 🚀 Shell Protocol Deploys Cross Chain Zaps for Base, Optimism and Mainnet Access platforms like Balancer, Curve, Aave, Uniswap, Aerodrome, and Beefy—all within the Shell dapp. 🧵 Here’s everything you need to know.

2/ Imagine all major Ethereum L2s in one interface. Seamlessly bridge tokens between chains into DeFi protocols with our new cross-chain DeFi zaps. Just need USDC or ETH. Let's break it down.

3/ Why Cross-Chain DeFi Zaps? 🔷 Save time: No more juggling multiple DeFi dapps and bridges. 🔷 Boost efficiency: Execute complex transactions in under a minute. 🔷 Simplify everything: Hassle-free deposits into protocols like Aave. 🔷 Save money: Uses aggregators for optimal paths.

4/ See for yourself! Check out our demo of Shell’s cross-chain DeFi zap in action:

5/ Roadmap milestones Here’s what we’ve accomplished and what’s next: January: Launch Shell v3 March: Integrate DeFi protocols on Arbitrum June: Support cross-chain zaps into Arbitrum July: Integrate DeFi protocols on Base, Optimism, and Mainnet September: Chain abstraction for DeFi

6/ How does chain abstraction advance DeFi? DeFi is fragmented, requiring users to navigate multiple protocols and chains. Shell aims to eliminate this. With chain abstraction, you can one-click deposit into any DeFi pool without worrying about the chain.

7/ Benefits of Chain Abstraction One-Click Access: Every pool on every chain is one click away. Better Yields: Access more liquidity and earn better yields.

8/ 🎁 Kickoff celebration with prizes! We’re giving away prizes for using the new cross-chain DeFi zap feature! Here’s how to win: Zap $100+ into an Arbitrum STIP pool. Prizes: 1000 ARB for the winner, 100 ARB for runners-up (6 winners total). Duration: Seven days, with prizes at the end.

9/ Stay tuned for updates Our final milestone—chain abstraction—comes in September. This will be a game-changer for DeFi. 🚀
