Basic Introduction:
Relay is a cross-chain bridging and execution system that enables instant, low-cost bridging and cross-chain execution. It works by connecting users with relayers—the relayers act on behalf of users across chains in exchange for a small fee. Relay aims to minimize gas costs and execution latency, making it ideal for price-sensitive applications such as payments, bridging, NFT minting, and gas withdrawals. Previously known as Reservoir, Relay was positioned as a token and NFT trading infrastructure.
