What is Portal?
Portal is a next-generation DeFi wallet and DEX built on atomic swap technology and powered by a layered architecture (Layer 2 and Layer 3). Its underlying protocol, Fabric, extends Bitcoin’s capabilities without requiring BIPs, enabling secure, custody-less trading across chains like Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Lightning. Beyond finance, Portal aims to disrupt the centralized web server model by creating a general-purpose, decentralized market for data and computation. Using atomic swaps and a peer-to-peer design, Portal transforms your device into a secure hub for cross-chain trading, data processing, and application hosting—free from centralized control. By combining a multi-chain wallet, a DEX 3.0 engine, and an open protocol layer, Portal is setting the foundation for a trustless web where users are in full control of their assets, data, and interactions.
