"Through partnerships we are improving the user experience for growing numbers within the DeFi and NFT space by facilitating the cheap migration of assets cross-chain. We're helping projects onboard new communities easily and providing a platform to increase their visibility whilst simultaneously increasing our own profile," said Barney Chambers, co-lead developer/founder of Umbria. "Usage of Umbria's Narni Bridge has accelerated substantially in the last few weeks, and we keep surpassing all-time highs on transactions. We'd like to take this opportunity to thank our partners – old and new - for their support and promotion of Umbria and the Narni Bridge."

Dave Swainbank of Polygon Alliance commented: "As a co-founder of Polygon Alliance, one of our main drives is to bring together anyone that can offer value to the Polygon community. I am excited to be working with Umbria, who have consistently offered value to Polygon NFT projects via their bridge; a simple and effective way to reduce gas fees."

"The greatest challenge in onboarding new players to a blockchain game today is wallet funding. Umbria simplifies this process by allowing players to seamlessly bridge funds from Ethereum to Polygon in a fast and gas-efficient manner. Additionally, the tools Umbria provides will allow us to eventually integrate their bridge directly into the MicroBuddies app, streamlining the process for our users and making wallet funding easier than ever before," said Fluxty, founder of MicroBuddies.

Umbria recently launched its Binance Smart Chain and Avalanche bridges and is looking for projects on these networks who would like to partner and introduce their communities to the fastest and cheapest Ethereum mainnet to AVAX and BSC bridging.

About Umbria
https://umbria.network/ 
https://bridge.umbria.network/ 

Operating within the DeFi and NFT space, Umbria Network enables anyone to migrate cryptocurrency assets across chain cheaply and quickly and earn high APYs on those assets with no impermanent loss. 

Umbria's flagship Narni cross-chain bridge is solving current blockchain interoperability issues. Narni removes the difficulty and expense of moving assets between blockchains and is the fastest and cheapest cross-chain liquidity bridge between the Ethereum and Polygon networks. Narni eliminates the barriers to entry for engaging with DeFi applications and NFTs making them much more accessible to a wider audience. 

The Umbria ecosystem, built on Polygon, has three major protocols:

1. A Cross-chain Asset Bridge: enables the fast and cheap transfer of assets between otherwise incompatible blockchains and cryptocurrency networks.
2. A Staking Pool: users can earn interest on their crypto assets by providing liquidity to the Narni bridge 
3. A Decentralised Exchange (DEX): an automated liquidity protocol powered by a constant product formula, deployed using smart contracts and governed entirely on-chain. Provides fast and cheap token swapping

UK-publicly listed Online Blockchain plc (LSE: OBC) acts as Umbria's coordinator, administrator and advisor. This provides a level of transparency rare in the DeFi space.
