[lifi] LI.FI
Cross-chain swap and bridge aggregation across dozens of networks.
non-custodialno-kycdexcross-chainsince 2021★4.7
LI.FI is a cross-chain liquidity aggregator that combines dozens of bridges and DEXes behind a single route. It can move a token from one chain to another and swap it in one flow, picking the cheapest and fastest combination available.
Swaps are non-custodial and execute from your own wallet. LI.FI is integrated by a long list of wallets and apps — broad third-party adoption is a strong signal of its reliability.
Pros
✓ Deep cross-chain coverage (bridges + DEXes)
✓ Non-custodial, wallet-signed
✓ Battle-tested, widely integrated
✓ One route handles bridge + swap together
Cons
• Cross-chain routes take minutes, not seconds
• Bridge risk is inherent to any cross-chain swap
• EVM-focused (no native Bitcoin or Monero)
Fees
LI.FI passes through the underlying bridge and DEX costs and adds a small aggregation fee that is already reflected in the route's output. BestDEX ranks providers by the net-of-fee amount you actually receive.

Is LI.FI safe?
LI.FI is a non-custodial aggregator with broad integration across the wallet ecosystem. It never takes custody of your funds; the underlying risk on any cross-chain trade is the bridge it routes through, which BestDEX names in each quote.
Does LI.FI support cross-chain swaps?
Yes — that is its core feature. It bridges and swaps across many EVM chains in a single route.
How long does a LI.FI swap take?
Same-chain swaps are near-instant; cross-chain routes typically take 1–20 minutes depending on the bridge, shown as an ETA before you commit.
