Wormhole Labs on Sunday unveiled the Sunrise platform with the goal of becoming the primary entry point for new digital assets into the Solana ecosystem.
The platform features a unified gateway that allows issuers and users to move tokens from any ecosystem to the Solana blockchain.
The debut comes just ahead of the arrival of Monad and its token, MON, to the mainnet on Monday. This gives Solana users day one access to the token without having to navigate the usual complex network of bridges and aggregators.
Sunrise addresses a growing challenge within Solana’s rapidly expanding markets. While the chain has seen an acceleration in activity, new assets have struggled to make their way into the ecosystem efficiently.
Users often face fragmented liquidity, multi-step bridging processes, and limited trading venues in the early stages. Sunrise is positioned as Solana’s “canonical path” for new tokens, with the goal of simplifying that flow into a single, standardized interface.
Integrations with block explorer Orb and decentralized exchange Jupiter will also be activated, so any cryptocurrency entered through Sunrise will be immediately accessible and traded in the Solana ecosystem.
The team said it expects the first major test to occur when MON is introduced, allowing the token to move from Monad to Solana in a single step.
“Solana’s vision for Internet capital markets means being the platform where users can interact with any asset, including crypto assets that do not originate on Solana,” said Kuleen Nimkar, growth lead at the Solana Foundation. “Products like Sunrise are a critical part of making this future possible by giving new non-native assets a seamless, high-liquidity path to the network from day one.”
