Deposit once, route many times.
Balance mode is the second way to use Crossfold. Instead of one confirmation per route, you deposit into a balance that only your signature can move, route inside it as often as you like, and withdraw to any address on any supported network. It is not live yet. This page shows what it will be, and where it sits on the roadmap.

- > One deposit, many routes. Today every route is its own deposit with its own deadline. In balance mode you fund once and route as often as you like.
- > Seconds, not confirmations. Routes inside the balance settle off chain. No gas per route, no waiting on the origin network.
- > Built for Solana and Bitcoin. Those wallets never connect to a page. A deposit address that tops up a balance is the natural fit, and withdrawals go straight back to a Solana or Bitcoin address.
- > In balance mode your funds sit in the routing protocol's contract, not in your wallet. Only your signature can move them. Crossfold cannot.
- > That is a different promise from direct routes, which never leave your wallet except to be delivered. The app will say which mode you are in, every time.
- > Robinhood Chain is not yet reachable from balance mode. Direct routes stay the road into Robinhood Chain until the protocol lists it.
01 // How it will work
Sign in with a signature
Your wallet signs one short message. That signature is your identity in balance mode. No new keys, no password, nothing to store.
Deposit from anywhere
Every network gets a deposit address that credits your balance. Send from a wallet, an exchange, a script. Solana and Bitcoin included.
Route inside the balance
Swaps and bridges happen against your balance, in seconds, with no on-chain transaction and no deadline per route.
Withdraw to any address
Sign a message that says where the funds should go. A solver delivers on that network, to that address.
// networks at launch of balance mode: Ethereum, Arbitrum One, Base, OP Mainnet, Polygon, BNB Chain. Robinhood Chain follows when the protocol lists it.
02 // Roadmap
- Phase 1live
Direct routes
One confirmation from your wallet on the origin network, delivery on the destination. Robinhood Chain in and out, and routes between the EVM networks. Proven on chain.
- Phase 1.5next
Solana and Bitcoin, direct
Deposit-address routes for wallets that do not connect to a page: a one-time address, an exact amount, tracked until delivered. Listed already, switched on when the flow is finished.
- Phase 2coming soon
Balance mode
This page. Deposit once, route many times, withdraw anywhere. Ships after phase 1.5, as its own tab next to direct routes.
- Phase 3after the token
FOLD utilities
