### Core Updates

#### 1. Convergence of Swap & Bridge Modes
We have simplified the trading process, no longer distinguishing between "Single-Chain Swap" and "Cross-Chain Bridge".

- Unified Entry: The system automatically identifies the target asset. Whether it is a same-chain swap or a cross-chain transfer, it is completed through a single entry point.
- Ultimate Efficiency: Input the token to instantly match the optimal path across the entire network. Single-chain and cross-chain interactions are handled in one go.

#### 2.Expanding Multi-Chain & Native Asset Swap Capabilities
Added support for swaps and cross-chain transfers for 9 public chains and native assets, covering more mainstream chain ecosystems.

- New Networks: Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), Dogechain, XRP Ledger, Cardano (ADA), Zcash (ZEC), Aptos, Gnosis, Aurora.
- Native Interoperability: Supports direct swaps and cross-chain transfers for assets like BTC and DOGE, eliminating the need for cumbersome intermediate transfers.

### Feature Highlights

- Custom Recipient Address: Supports specifying a target wallet during cross-chain transactions, saving the trouble of secondary transfers.
- Transparent Routing: Aggregates liquidity from DEXs and Bridges, fully displaying Gas, cross-chain fees, and execution paths for clear and transparent transaction details.

### How to Access
Open Gate App - Switch to Web3 at the top - Click the [Trade] icon at the bottom - Click the [Swap] icon at the top of the [Trade] page.
Users can complete asset price inquiries, cross-chain execution, and result confirmation on the same swap page. The system will automatically select the best path and clearly display relevant fees and transaction details.
