October t3rn Update

Eager to get a quick rundown of t3rn's October highlights within 3 minutes? You've come to the right spot. We're delighted to present the strides and accomplishments made by our team throughout October, characterized by notable progress.

Successful Kusama Parachain Auction

We are proud to announce that t3rn has secured a position in Kusama Parachain Auction #109. Our journey from Rococo testing to launching on Polkadot signifies our dedication to simplifying cross-chain transactions.

Why is it important to get a Kusama Parachain?

Having a Kusama parachain offers a cost-effective playground for testing features with faster block times before deploying on Polkadot. By leveraging Kusama's engaged community, our project gains valuable feedback and increased visibility.

The integration of Asset Hub assets on both Kusama & Polkadot networks is a significant stride in broadening the horizon for asset interoperability, marking a new chapter in our cross-chain narrative.

Snorkel: Revolutionizing DeFi Oracle Systems

Addressing the inherent limitations of blockchains and cryptocurrencies, t3rn introduced Snorkel at Polkadot Decoded this year. This trustless oracle solution is dedicated to delivering accurate price data and optimizing transaction costs. Snorkel aims to simplify complexities, ensuring a secure and thorough approach.

Refined Executor Documentation

Our technical documentation is being meticulously refined, emphasizing its role as a reliable guide for those interested in becoming Executors in the t3rn ecosystem. These vital contributors execute cross-chain transactions and are instrumental in our network's growth, with opportunities to join us on the horizon.

A Glimpse into the Future UI

For those keen on user experience, we're excited to share a sneak peek of our innovative UI. This preview, courtesy of Victor, our frontend developer, offers a glimpse into the functionality and design that will soon streamline your cross-chain transactions.

As part of this rollout, we're inviting community members to participate in early testing. If you're interested, reach out to @thematheusm on Telegram—but hurry, as we're limiting this to a select few to maintain exclusivity and focus.

Expanding LATAM

Our LATAM Conductors have been diligently working on translating content into Portuguese, ensuring that our updates and information are accessible to a broader audience. Here are the top blogs that you might have missed:

Team and Planning

Our team is spread across Europe, Asia, Latin America, and beyond. We met everyone in Morocco; it was great for bonding and planning challenging steps for the protocol. Workshops and long working sessions were conducted with the marketing, development, and operations teams.

We are excited to roll out t3rn 2.0, a ground-up redesign of t3rn’s cross-chain execution and bridging stack that replaces trust-based coordination with a cryptographically verifiable, trustless execution model. Powered by the new LiquidityWellCompact architecture, which unifies order management, escrow, and liquidity into a single gas-optimized contract, t3rn 2.0 makes cross-chain transactions significantly cheaper, faster, and more reliable. With automated retries, stronger liquidity incentives, and backward-compatible, composable APIs, t3rn 2.0 moves cross-chain execution closer to being a simple, predictable infrastructure primitive rather than a fragile special case.

We’re happy to announce Lucky Bunny, our NFT PFP drop celebrating community, interoperability, and a bit of luck in the t3rn ecosystem. Inspired by the Lucky Cat and t3rn’s bunny mascot, Lucky Bunnies symbolize curiosity, movement, and connection across chains. Minted on Rari Chain, this drop is a thank-you to the t3rn community, offering simple perks like future allowlists, raffles, and early access. With an accessible mint and proceeds supporting TRN buybacks, Lucky Bunny is about being part of the story — where culture and infrastructure grow together.

As multichain activity becomes a core part of Web3, simple asset transfers via bridges are no longer enough to support increasingly complex cross-chain workflows. While bridges effectively move assets between chains, they stop short of coordinating multi-step actions, leaving users exposed to partial executions, higher costs, and manual failure handling. t3rn addresses this gap by with cross-chain execution: an outcome-driven, atomic approach where all actions across multiple chains either complete together or fully revert. Rather than managing individual transactions, users define the desired result, and the protocol guarantees execution without leaving funds in unintended states. By operating above bridges and messaging protocols, t3rn provides execution-level interoperability, enabling safer, more reliable multichain applications as blockchain ecosystems continue to fragment and scale.
