A recent announcement has revealed that Portal, a true cross-chain DEX that makes atomic swaps between Bitcoin and other digital assets fast, secure, and private; and blockchain infrastructure platform, Ankr, has entered a strategic partnership.
Portal has been designed in a way that makes decentralized finance become a service that anyone can provide while maintaining anonymity within open, transparent markets with a security model as robust as Bitcoin mining.
Meanwhile, Ankr provides Web3 infrastructure for the easy, accessible, and affordable deployment of blockchain nodes, APIs, decentralized staking infrastructure, and Layer 2 scaling solutions, designed to lower the entry barrier for everyday people, enterprises, and developers to contribute to blockchain ecosystems.
Prior to the partnership, Portal had recently raised $8.5M from COINBASE Ventures, ArringtonXRP Capital, OKEx, others. Its integration with Ankr predicts further yields.
