Avail Rolls Out Nexus Mainnet to Unify the Multichain Ecosystem

Avail has introduced the Avail Nexus Mainnet, a cross-chain coordination layer designed to merge rollups, appchains, and decentralized applications into a cohesive ecosystem. The company indicated that this new system aims to allow assets, users, and liquidity to move across various blockchains with significantly fewer frictions, enabling a more fluid and interconnected operational landscape.

According to the modular blockchain infrastructure provider, Nexus has been activated across several major ecosystems. This includes Ethereum, Tron, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Chain, Monad, Kaia, HyperEVM, and Scroll, while Solana is expected to be added soon. The rollout is positioned as a response to growing fragmentation within the blockchain sector.

Addressing Fragmentation and Risky Connectivity

Avail co-founder Anurag Arjun conveyed that the industry continues to face challenges tied to siloed networks and unreliable bridging mechanisms. He emphasized that these issues have weakened both developer workflows and user experiences. Arjun suggested that blockchain networks should evolve into interconnected components of a single verifiable system, where resources and actions can transition freely without the constraints of traditional message-passing approaches.

Nexus introduces an intent-solver architecture intended to determine routing and execution on behalf of users. The setup is meant to ensure transactions draw on liquidity from multiple chains simultaneously and rely on exact-out execution for predictable outcomes, irrespective of where liquidity resides. Avail added that the system is designed to advance toward unified verification, supported by Avail DA, enabling cross-chain activities to be validated using shared data structures rather than isolated checks on individual chains.

The company framed this shift as a transition away from the historical model of shuttling messages between chains. Instead, Nexus seeks to enable shared execution and liquidity, which Avail views as a foundational change in how on-chain economic systems operate.

User-Focused Improvements and Developer Efficiency

For end users, Nexus is built to streamline interactions across diverse ecosystems. Avail stated that users will no longer need to perform manual bridging steps or switch between gas tokens to complete actions. The company also noted that Nexus offers deeper liquidity access, potentially more efficient pricing, and the ability to use applications without considering the chain on which they are deployed. Arjun characterized this direction as a major usability milestone intended to make Web3 environments more suitable for mainstream consumer applications.

Developers, meanwhile, can integrate Nexus using SDKs, APIs, or lightweight components. Avail explained that this setup supports one-time integration for broad multichain reach, real-time collateral synchronization across chains, intent-based trading features, and cross-chain execution without direct management of routers or bridges. The firm highlighted that its expertise in data availability forms the backbone of this system and will expand through the Avail DA Infinity Blocks roadmap, which targets drastically higher block capacities and support for high-throughput appchains.

The network is powered by the AVAIL token, which functions as its coordination asset. Current pricing stands near $0.0080 based on data from The Block’s tracking page.

Broader Adoption and the Road Ahead

Fellow co-founder Prabal Banerjee remarked that Nexus was engineered to remove the typical complexities of cross-chain execution. He suggested that developers can shift their focus to application design while routing, verification, and execution are handled by the underlying infrastructure. Banerjee also described liquidity and execution as evolving from chain-specific quantities into resources shared across the broader Nexus network.

Avail reported that Nexus Mainnet is launching with active or developing integrations across categories such as DeFi, infrastructure, AI, SocialFi, and multichain tooling. Early adopters include Lens Protocol, Sophon, Space & Time, Lumia, Validium Network, Vanna Finance, Mace, Clober, Station X, Nexus AI, Bitte.ai, Neova, Gummee, and Symbiotic. These projects are pursuing use cases such as unified collateral management, intent-driven execution across liquidity venues, and aggregated multichain liquidity.

With the mainnet now operational, Avail indicated that it plans to expand Nexus further with additional chain integrations and ecosystem partnerships in the coming phases.
