Build Cross-Chain Apps with Ika and Sui’s New RFP
Ika, the fastest and most advanced MPC (Multi-Party Computation) network, has launched a new Request for Proposals (RFP) aimed at developers and teams who want to build applications that simply weren’t possible before. With Ika now integrated directly into the Sui blockchain, developers can create powerful new tools and services that allow smart contracts on Sui to control assets on other blockchains like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and more—all without using bridges, wrapped tokens, or custodians.
This unlocks a whole new era of cross-chain apps where users stay in full control of their assets while interacting across multiple networks.
### Why This Is Only Possible with Ika and Sui
Ika uses a unique zero-trust MPC setup and a cutting-edge cryptographic approach called 2PC-MPC. This allows seamless and secure interaction between blockchains. When combined with Sui’s powerful smart contracts, Ika turns Sui into a global control center for cross-chain operations.
Now, developers can build apps that not only talk to different blockchains but actually manage real assets across them—like using Bitcoin or ETH directly in DeFi without needing to wrap them.
Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Mysten Labs, explained it clearly: “These use cases are groundbreaking. Ika allows Sui developers to coordinate logic and assets across chains in ways no one could before.”
### Real-World Examples of What You Can Build
The first round of RFPs includes twelve innovative project ideas. Here are some of the most exciting ones:
#### 1. New Ways to Use Real Crypto Like BTC and ETH in DeFi
– **Cross-Chain Lending Protocol**: Imagine borrowing USDC from Solana using your actual BTC as collateral—no middlemen, no wrapped tokens, just pure crypto.
– **Bitcoin DeFi Layer**: Turn BTC into a programmable asset. That means lending, swapping, or earning yield directly with Bitcoin—just like on Ethereum.
#### 2. Redefining Ownership and Trade Across Blockchains
– **Account Marketplace**: Not just NFTs or tokens—this lets people securely buy and sell entire blockchain accounts like gaming wallets or DAO roles.
– **Revenue Stream Marketplace**: Tokenize and trade future income from protocols or validators. Great for raising funds or diversifying investments.
#### 3. Smarter Tools for Users, DAOs, and AI
– **Wallet-as-a-Protocol (WaaP)**: Apps can now onboard users without needing to control their wallets. It’s like Wallet-as-a-Service but decentralized and safer.
– **Multi-Chain DAO Platform**: DAOs can now manage assets and vote across multiple blockchains. Even mergers between DAOs are possible.
– **AI Agent Access Control**: Let AI agents interact across chains—but with guardrails in place so they follow rules and stay secure.
These aren’t just upgrades—they’re entirely new categories of apps that were never possible before.
### Open Call for Builders
If you have a bold idea that fits into this vision, now’s your chance. Selected proposals will get funding, technical help, and major exposure within the Ika + Sui ecosystem.
“We’re thrilled to grow the builder community around Ika,” said David Lachmish, Co-Founder of Ika. “These projects are more than concepts—they could be the future giants of crypto.”
