How we assess Socket

We do not collect user ratings. This assessment is based on public, checkable information: the protocol’s own documentation, published audits, on-chain TVL, and the quotes we observe from its API.

What we measure directly

  • • Live quote availability and response latency from the provider API
  • • Observed fee range across the routes we query
  • • Advertised settlement time vs. what the API reports
  • • Which chains and tokens actually return a usable quote

What you should verify yourself

  • • Current audit status in the protocol’s own docs
  • • TVL and volume on DefiLlama
  • • That the frontend URL matches the official domain
  • • Any active incident notices on the protocol’s status page or X account

Bridges carry real risk. Cross-chain bridges have historically been among the most frequently exploited contracts in DeFi. No listing here is an endorsement or a security guarantee — do your own research before moving significant amounts, and consider a small test transfer first. Our bridge security guide covers what to check.
