# Chain Abstraction

Trading onchain often means managing multiple networks, bridging assets between chains, and keeping track of different gas tokens.

DEX removes that complexity with one unified balance.

### How it works

When funds are deposited into DEX, they are converted into USDC and routed through DEX's infrastructure.

This allows users to access markets, assets, and opportunities across multiple chains without manually bridging funds or switching networks.

With DEX, you don't need to:

* Bridge assets between chains
* Switch networks
* Manage multiple gas tokens

You simply choose what you want to trade and transfer USDC to that asset class if needed.

DEX makes blockchain infrastructure invisible, so you can focus on the markets, not the mechanics.
