Just tried bridging $LAVA from Lava mainnet to Arbitrum using Axelar ....

First few mins, I was calm.
Next XX mins, I was refreshing.
Then I ended up on their explorer, wallet in hand, trying to figure out why nothing moved.

Turns out I needed more gas and had to connect my wallet again on the explorer just to top up. 

Felt like I was back in the stone age of crypto.

That whole experience just reminded me why I preach @union_build.

If we’re talking real interoperability that doesn’t stress you out like a bad relationship it’s Union every time.

@0xkaiserkarel can you please confirm we are safe from stuff like this come union mainnet🙂.
