Leap for Modularity: Forma Chain Goes Live on Leap

Forma Chain is now available on Leap Wallet, the first ever native EVM & Modular integration for the wallet.

Big news in the modular blockchain world – Forma Chain has just gone live on Leap. This isn't just another integration; we're talking about the first-ever native EVM and modular chain integration on Leap. It's a pretty big deal.


What's This All About?

Imagine having all the power of Forma Chain right in your wallet. Portfolio, collectibles, live prices, rewards...
It's all coming together!

Before we get to the nitty gritties, a quick detour to talk about what makes Forma Chain tick. It's not just another blockchain – it's got some seriously cool features that set it apart:

  1. Built for creators: Forma is all about on-chain creations. If you're making art of any kind, this is where you should be selling it.

  2. Faster than you think: It's hooked up with Astria and its shared sequencer network. In plain English? It's part of a bigger system that helps things run smoother and faster.

  3. Celestia Underneath: Forma uses Celestia to publish its data, leveraging modularity for cheaper & faster data availability.

  4. Gas up with TIA: Here's a twist – Forma uses TIA as its native gas token. That's right, the same TIA from Celestia. You can bridge this token in seconds!

This setup is pretty unique in the blockchain world. Forma has taken some of the best parts from different systems to create a unique on-chain economy.


What You Get with Leap's Native Integration

Here's the rundown of what this integration brings to the table:

  1. Real-time Portfolio Viewing: Keep track of your investments with up-to-date values, all within your wallet.

  2. Easy Token Transfers: Sending or receiving tokens is now a one-click affair. Simple and straightforward.

  3. Quick Bridging: Moving tokens in or out of Forma Chain? It now happens in seconds.

  4. Smooth dApp Interactions: Sign transactions from Forma dApps like Modularium without any hassle.

Swapfast Joins the Party

Swapfast is also part of this Forma Chain integration. This means you can now use Swapfast to bridge assets from supported modular chains to Forma quickly and easily.

It works both ways too. You can bridge assets from Forma to other modular networks like Celestia, Stargaze, Stride, and more that are in the pipeline. It's opening up a whole new world of possibilities for asset movement between chains.

What's Coming Up?

We've got more in the works.

  • In-wallet NFT Support: Soon, you'll be minting and viewing NFTs right from your wallet.

  • Mobile App Browser: A mobile app browser for Forma Chain apps like Modularium is on the way.

Forma is currently live on the Leap extension. Mobile support is in the works and will be rolling out soon.

It's an interesting time for modular blockchain tech, and this Forma Chain integration with Leap is pushing things forward. It's bringing more convenience and modularity to users, which is always a good thing.

Keep an eye out for more updates. Modularity moves fast, we move faster.
