Getting assets onto Blast via its official bridge takes up to 14 days. Relay handles the same move in seconds — ETH, USDC, or any supported token from any chain to Blast, no waiting period, no account required.

What Is Blast?

Blast is an Ethereum L2 that offers native yield on ETH and stablecoins held on-chain. Built by the team behind Blur, it's designed for DeFi users who want to earn yield on idle assets while participating in Blast's ecosystem:

Native ETH yield — ETH deposited on Blast automatically earns staking yield
Native stablecoin yield — USDC/USDB earns T-bill rates on Blast
Blast DeFi — DEXs, lending protocols, and perps built natively for Blast's yield model
Thruster — Blast's flagship DEX with concentrated liquidity pools

The native yield model makes Blast attractive for DeFi users who want their idle capital working even between trades.
