Bridgeless Execution

Unlike L2s and meta-protocols where users must bridge or wrap their assets and then send the assets to a smart contract, Arch allows users to send their assets directly through the smart contract invocation without bridging or wrapping first.

All asset transfers can occur using native bitcoin transactions involving UTXOs, although account-based systems such as Layer 2s can also be built using Arch (to optimize transaction speeds as high-performance chains do, for example).
