ERC20 Gateway Framework
A framework for creating gateways that transfer ERC-20 tokens between Ethereum and the Waves blockchain.
Overview
The ERC-20 <-> Waves Platform Gateway Framework enables developers to establish bidirectional bridges between Ethereum-based ERC-20 tokens and the Waves blockchain. It facilitates cross-chain asset transfers by creating proxy tokens on Waves that represent the original ERC-20 assets, allowing users to move value between the two ecosystems.
Key Features
- Tunnel-Based Transfers — Users define temporary tunnels linking an Ethereum source address to a Waves destination address for one-time transfers.
- Automated Token Swapping — Automatically converts ERC-20 tokens sent to the gateway address into equivalent proxy tokens on the Waves blockchain, and vice versa.
- Configurable Fees — Gateway operators can set custom fees for both Ethereum and Waves sides of the transaction.
- Web Interface — Provides a local web page on port 8080 for managing and establishing transfer tunnels.
- Flexible Node Configuration — Supports connecting to various Ethereum node providers (including local IPC) and Waves networks (testnet, stagenet, mainnet).
Philosophy
The framework prioritizes simplicity and configurability, allowing anyone to deploy a functional cross-chain gateway with minimal setup while placing full operational responsibility on the gateway owner.
