Inside Manta Bridge: ZK, MPC, Routing Layers & Liquidity Architecture (Full Technical Breakdown 2025)
Cross-chain bridges today are no longer simple token tunnels — they are distributed security systems composed of validators, liquid markets, routing engines, proof frameworks, and settlement pipelines. Understanding how Manta Bridge operates internally requires going far beyond the basic “send asset from chain A to chain B” explanation. After analyzing documentation such as How Manta Bridge Works ( https://manta-bridge.app/blog/how-manta-bridge-works/ ), reviewing the routing documentation ( https://manta-bridge.app/blog/manta-bridge-routing-and-finality/ ), exploring GitHub structure ( https://manta-bridge-network.github.io/ ), monitoring community insights on Reddit ( https://www.reddit.com/r/MantaBridgeDEX/ ), and personally completing 50+ transfers, I compiled a complete technical overview of the systems powering Manta Bridge. This article breaks down the core components: ✅ ZK foundations ✅ MPC validator architecture ✅ multi-layer routing ✅ liquidity orchestration ✅ f...
