Deposit from Any Chain with Cross-Chain Zaps
Getting capital onto Berachain used to require manual steps: bridge your stablecoin, wait for confirmation, connect to Berachain, then deposit. Zaps handle the bridging so you skip directly to holding a vault position.
What a Zap Does
A zap moves your stablecoin from its current chain to Berachain using LayerZero's OFT infrastructure or NEAR Intents, depending on your source chain. Once funds arrive on Berachain, the app routes them into the SukukFi vault. The bridging and the vault deposit are two distinct steps, but the app coordinates them and shows you the expected received amount before you commit.
Supported Inbound Chains
Via LayerZero OFT (EVM chains):
USDT0 is bridgeable from Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Mantle, Unichain, Ink, Sei, Flare, Rootstock, HyperEVM, X Layer, and more. USDC.e is bridgeable from Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Base, Mantle, Ink, Avalanche, Sonic, Scroll, Gnosis, Cronos, and BSC. USDe from Ethereum is bridged and converted to HONEY on arrival via the Berachain HoneyFactory.
Via NEAR Intents (non-EVM and additional chains):
For Tron, TON, and Solana, SukukFi uses NEAR Intents rather than a direct LayerZero OFT path. LayerZero does support these chains, but the multi-hop OFT integration requires a specific API approval that SukukFi is in the process of obtaining. NEAR Intents provides equivalent delivery in the meantime: it generates a deposit address on the source chain, you send tokens to that address from any wallet, and the intent network delivers USDT0 to your Berachain wallet. NEAR Intents also covers EVM chains where a direct OFT route is not yet configured.
How It Works Under the Hood
LayerZero OFT path: your stablecoin is locked or burned on the source chain, a canonical OFT representation is minted on Berachain, and you receive it in your wallet. You then deposit into the vault as a second step on Berachain.
NEAR Intents path: a deposit address is generated for you on the source chain. You send tokens to that address. The intent network fulfils delivery on Berachain. Once funds arrive, you deposit into the vault.
Both paths deliver funds to your wallet on Berachain. The app shows the expected received amount after bridge fees before you confirm, and monitors delivery status after the bridge transaction.
Minimum Deposit
The duPRT vault enforces a minimum deposit of $1,000 during this phase. This is a vault-level parameter that may be adjusted as the protocol scales. If your bridged amount would fall below this threshold after fees, the deposit will be rejected by the vault contract.
For most routes on major chains, bridging fees are well under $1 for amounts above $1,000. The app shows you the expected received amount before you confirm, so you can verify the post-fee amount meets the minimum.
Why Berachain
Berachain was built by founders who understand what serious DeFi users actually need: a chain that treats liquidity as infrastructure, not an afterthought. The teams behind Berachain have a track record in DeFi, and that background shows in how the network was designed from the ground up to support productive capital rather than speculative activity.
Berachain actively supports real financial products built on its infrastructure. SukukFi has a direct relationship with the Berachain Foundation. That relationship means SukukFi vaults are recognised as productive protocol deployments, and the Berachain team understands the use case we are building toward: real-world private credit brought on-chain for a global base of capital providers. That kind of institutional support matters when you are building a product that needs the chain to remain stable, credible, and well-maintained.
For SukukFi depositors, Berachain is where the yield infrastructure lives. Getting capital there is the first step.
How to Use Zaps
- Open the SukukFi app
- Select a vault (duPRT or trUST)
- On the deposit screen, select your source chain and asset
- Review the estimated received amount after bridge fees
- Confirm the bridge transaction in your wallet
- Once funds arrive on Berachain, confirm the vault deposit
