Integrate Your Chain

Adding a New Chain to Squid via Coral

To onboard a new chain to Squid, the integration is executed through Coral, our intent-based cross-chain routing protocol. Coral enables seamless, efficient, and secure swaps across a wide network of supported blockchains by connecting users directly with market makers.

What We Need From You

To support your chain within Squid, we require:

  • A market maker loan to enable Coral to execute swaps on your chain with deep liquidity and guaranteed execution quality.

This loan ensures that Coral market makers can fulfill intents rapidly, securely, and with zero slippage for users transacting with your chain.

Why Integrate with Coral?

Coral (Cross-chain Order Routing and Auction Layer) is designed for scalable, low-latency cross-chain interactions. By integrating with Coral, your chain gains:

  • Access to 90+ Chains already supported by Squid, including Solana, BTC, and major EVMs

  • Execution in Under 5 Seconds for most swaps

  • Zero Slippage, with direct market maker fulfillment

  • Up to 90% Gas Cost Reduction compared to traditional AMM-based routing

  • MEV Protection and Enterprise-grade Security via Axelar infrastructure

Technical Requirements

  • Coral uses a hub-and-spoke architecture with an intent-based protocol design.

  • Smart contracts are audited, non-upgradeable, and ownerless, ensuring security and neutrality.

  • Integration can be completed via Squid’s API, SDK, or front-end widget.
