As 2025 winds down, what could we realistically see from major Web3 platforms heading into 2026? One development that seems increasingly likely is the shift toward genuine multi-chain infrastructure.
Right now, most platforms lean heavily into single-chain ecosystems—Solana being the prime example. But here's the thing: staying locked into one chain limits growth potential. The next phase should involve breaking free from that constraint. Supporting multiple chains isn't just about adding checkboxes on a feature list; it fundamentally changes how users interact with liquidity pools, assets, and trading pairs across different networks.
This could genuinely be a game-changer for how we trade and move value in Web3.

The multi-chain narrative is back, but can it really solve the fragmentation of cross-chain liquidity?

The matter of cross-chain has been talked about for so many years, but there are still very few that have actually been implemented.

The multi-chain narrative is back, but to be honest, it feels different this time...

The multi-chain narrative is back, it should have been played this way a long time ago, otherwise Solana would monopolize and it would be boring.

The multi-chain narrative is back again, every time claiming to break the deadlock, yet it’s still the same trap.

The multi-chain narrative is back, but there are not many who can really do cross-chain well; it's mostly just talk.
