The King of bridges, Celer Network, is now supporting the PlatON Network. This opens cross-chain transfers between Ethereum and PlatON. Transactions will be cheap, fast, and safe, and will involve seven tokens.
Also, Celer Network uses the Open Canonical Token Bridge Standard for this bridge. Therefore, PlatON is combining AI with blockchain technology. In addition, they use privacy-preserving computation technologies. This should lead to a democratized form of safe AI.
Transfer ERC-721 Tokens From Ethereum to PlatON Network
PlatON uses a variety of technologies to achieve this. However, computing interoperability is at the core of all this. Let’s take a look at what this means for both the PlatON and Celer network.
📣Super excited to announce that we have added support for @PlatON_Network!
💻➡️🌉You will soon be able to transfer $WETH, $WBTC, $USDC, $USDT, $DAI, $GRT, and $LINK cross-chain between @ethereum and @PlatON_Network quickly, securely, and with low-costs!https://t.co/IkySMOBX2m

Also, the open canonical token standard bridge is an answer to the third-party canonical token bridges. That doesn’t help, does it? So, Celer has a great blog post about the difference between the two.
In short, the bridge is now open to hacks. Once a bad actor finds a weak point, he can mint an endless number of tokens.
The cBridge that Celer Network uses for PlatON is an open canonical token standard bridge. As a result, you can bridge the following seven tokens soon: WETH, WBTC, USDC, USDT, DAI, GRT, and LINK.
What are Canonical Tokens on Celer Network?
Basically, third-party canonical token bridges have vendor lock-ins. This is when you can’t switch between products from competitors. What does this mean for Celer? If a project chooses a third-party canonical token bridge, they are stuck with that bridge. In other words, they can’t switch bridges anymore. This boils down to the fact that this bridge is the only one that can mint the correct tokens. The tokens for the destination chain.
Also, canonical tokens allow a protocol to use a variety of bridges. Most importantly, each bridge mints the same tokens. This also means that projects own the bridges. Furthermore, it also eliminates various risks or reduces them. For example, a hacker will now only get a few tokens. Those allocated to a specific bridge. Also, if a bridge fails, there are other bridges that can replace it.
