Round 2 / Cross Chain Onramp POC

This project is important for builders targeting web3 object and web3 chain data. It is a building block enabling integration with other ecosystems so that filecoin builders can both leverage innovations and more easily provide services to the broader ecosystem.

Builders have been using it since prototyping wrapped up in July. Fil b recently won a prize from Linea at the EthGlobal Singapore hackathon with a project centered on the cross chain onramp and are pursing this project further. They have additionally been productionizing the code to make it easy to use for builders.

Akave has been integrating the protocol into their system in order to get a provable signal of filecoin deals from filecoin L2. Notably the onramp protocol works for IPC subnets.

Eastore has been working closely with filb on the onramp with plans to integrate the protocol into their product.

Eshon's ecosystem team has been working with CID gravity to add support for erc20 deals inspired by onramp contracts. This is something cid gravity have been asking for which will improve the benefits of storing on cid gravity and hopefully increase useful capacity.

Finally the cross chain onramp prototype uses axelar which has given the filecoin axelar integration more adoption and use.
