Sentora Co-Founder questions the security of cross-chain bridge ecosystems and recommends introducing an insurance model to ensure solvency.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Sentora (formerly IntoTheBlock) co-founder Jesus Rodriguez posted on the X platform questioning the security of cross-chain bridge ecosystems. He stated that in the architecture of the crypto ecosystem, cross-chain bridges are the single largest point of failure. From a financial perspective, cross-chain bridges are huge, centralized custodial risk pools. The industry has invested billions of dollars to optimize the speed of cross-chain bridges, but almost no funds are allocated to improve the security of the transmission itself. Jesus Rodriguez believes that insurance should become a part of the cross-chain bridge architecture and proposed two models, including a user-centric “atomic encapsulation” model and a protocol-level support model. He pointed out that cross-chain bridges with guaranteed solvency will gain a significant competitive advantage. This move will shift the industry from “trusting code” to “insuring state transitions.”
