# Bridge

Users can transfer wcgUSD between different chains. Currently, Cygnus utilizes Axelar Network for cross-chain communication, and when users engage in cross-chain transactions, they are required to pay Axelar Network a certain fee in the native token of the source chain.

Here are the details of the cross-chain fees:
