Blockchain interoperability project pNetwork PNT/USD announced that, with the addition of Algorand ALGO/USD network to its system, its users can now move non-fungible tokens (NFTs) across 11 different blockchains.
What Happened: According to an announcement shared with Benzinga, pNetwork received a grant from Algorand to bring it on board of its interoperability ecosystem.
The firm claims that its platform powers the highest number of cross-chain connections in the industry, which allows sharing assets and data across various blockchains.
So far, pNetwork added support for Bitcoin BTC/USD, Ethereum ETH/USD, Dogecoin DOGE/USD, Litecoin LTC/USD, Binance Smart Chain BSC/USD, Polygon MATIC/USD, xDAI (CRYPTO: xDAI), EOS EOS/USD, Telos TLOS/USD, Ravencoin RVN/USD and Algorand ALGO/USD.
The project's lead Thomas Bertani explained that the system's purpose is to connect the decentralized applications (DApps) present in the entire crypto asset ecosystem.
"Via pNetwork, financial applications building on Algorand can access the larger crypto market and open up to the flourishing DeFi ecosystem," Bertani explained.
