ICP has a direct integration with the Bitcoin network using a Bitcoin adapter and threshold signatures such as t-ECDSA and t-Schnorr. Learn how your canister can sign and submit transactions for BRC-20, Ordinals, Runes, and more

ICP canisters can sign and submit transactions directly to Ethereum and EVM chains through the EVM RPC canister. Learn more about how you can build Ethereum applications on ICP

Chain-key tokens are digital twins of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and ERC-20 tokens that are secured on ICP with chain-key cryptography
