Thanks for the proposal @blockchaincolumbia,
We would like to support this proposal, however, we do have some concerns with the recent news/rumours regarding the arrest of Multichain’s developers and the disruption of bridging services.
Multichain is the largest provider of bridged assets to Fantom including almost all popular ERC20 tokens.
Our concern currently, is that there is a possibility that the native underlying tokens sitting within the Multichain bridge will be seized. Therefore, assets bridged on FTM lose their value and Uniswap liquidity providers are hurt as a result.
We understand that this is a risk for most non-native EVM bridge assets across various chains, however, given the size of Fantom’s asset exposure to Multichain, waiting for more clarity around the situation could help protect users who want to use an official Uniswap deployment.
