Stargate cross‑chain update
Stargate Finance rolled out an update hinting at doubled‑down efforts on seamless cross‑chain liquidity and new integrations across L2s and EVM networks — a continued push to be the plumbing for multi‑chain TVL flow. The protocol’s expansion moves are likely to drive short‑term TVL reallocations. (youtube.com)
Stargate enabled River.inc’s satUSD for native cross‑chain transfers on March 18, 2026, making satUSD immediately routable through Stargate pools without wrapped intermediaries.

(support.binance.us) Protocol metrics show ~ $680.5M bridge volume over the last 30 days and a treasury balance reported near $6.8M, data points traders use to assess near‑term TVL rotation and fee capture potential across Stargate rails. (defillama.com) Recent partner integrations include WBTC routing to Aptos and expanded aggregator support listing dozens of chains (Ethereum, BNB, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Polygon, Optimism, Base, Scroll and others), signaling immediate routing options for L2/EVM liquidity arbitrage and rebalancing strategies.
