Strengths and weaknesses
Pros	Average transfer speed of 1.2 seconds across supported chains Over $40B in cumulative volume processed without loss of user deposits Transfers use native assets without relying on wrapped tokens No identity verification (KYC) required to bridge	Swaps tokens cross-chain in a single transaction without a manual secondary swap Swift route settles native assets in as little as 2 seconds Uses Circle CCTP for native USDC transfers without wrapped-asset depeg risk Smart contracts audited by OtterSec and Sec3
Cons	July 2026 Solana relayer exploit resulted in $3.35M in stolen relayer funds Relies on third-party relayers maintaining destination chain liquidity Off-chain relayer bugs can temporarily pause specific chain routes ACX governance token undergoing sunsetting and corporate restructuring	Unfilled orders must wait for a deadline to pass before issuing refunds Execution relies on third-party driver liquidity and Circle or Wormhole messaging Guaranteed price quotes apply only to select same-asset routes
Best for	Fast cross-chain Layer 2 bridging, DeFi traders avoiding wrapped assets, Large stablecoin institutional transfers	Solana and EVM cross-chain traders, Users moving native USDC across networks, Traders lacking source chain native gas
