Single Address, Seven Chains: Openfort's Universal Deposit Address Revolution
Openfort has launched its Universal Deposit Address feature, allowing users to send funds across multiple blockchain networks using a single address. The system automatically handles routing and bridging, eliminating the need for manual bridging and swapping.
The feature supports seven chains at launch: Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Solana itself. It covers major stablecoins and native tokens, including USDC, USDT, ETH, and SOL.
Openfort's Universal Deposit Address is not alone in pursuing this direction. Biconomy announced comparable tooling on February 26, 2026, roughly four months before Openfort's launch. Particle Network has released its own Universal Deposit SDK, which creates multi-chain deposit addresses that automatically bridge detected funds to a configured destination.
For application developers, the most immediate benefit is reduced onboarding drop-off. Automating bridging and routing on the backend means fewer lost users at a critical moment in the acquisition funnel.
