Apex Fusion deployed bAP3X on Base through Skyline's Blade EVM infrastructure, connecting its tri-chain architecture (UTXO-based Vector, EVM-compatible Nexus, and Prime coordinator) to Coinbase's Layer 2 network. The implementation uses LayerZero's OFT standard to enable cross-chain transfers between fundamentally different blockchain execution models. Liquidity pools launched on Aerodrome ($8B monthly volume) and QuickSwap with Merkl incentives. The deployment creates pathways between Cardano's UTXO ecosystem and Base's $3.2B TVL, addressing DeFi's fragmentation across 40+ incompatible networks. Success depends on whether Cardano and Base communities generate sustained cross-chain transaction volume rather than one-time bridge activity. FINMA-guided token structure provides regulatory clarity but introduces complexity that may limit retail adoption. The infrastructure enables DeFi's potential return beyond $100B TVL through reunified liquidity, but market demand for cross-architecture interoperability remains unproven.
