Nexus network has built a native yield plugin, which can be used by any Rollup or bridge on Ethereum to enable native yield on their rollup. It is the first non-custodial and decentralized solution that keeps in mind the security of the assets present on the bridge. Nexus utilizes SSV to make the validators on Ethereum decentralized. The latest DVT and DKG tech developed by SSV helps us to make our validator operations decentralized.
To showcase our solution and as part of milestone 2 for the grant, we have deployed our Testnet using the Arbitrum orbit stack. We changed the bridge contract in the stack so that the locked funds in the bridge could be sent directly to SSV validators. There is an off-chain bot that monitors the bridge for sufficient funds and initiates the DKG process. The rollup can set whatever they want as their staking limit which can be changed with a single transaction.
Anyone can try the solution here:
