# Gem Wallet Integrates Maya Protocol: Cross-Chain Swaps for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Zcash, and More
> Gem Wallet now routes cross-chain swaps through Maya Protocol - a $748M-volume independent AMM for native Bitcoin, ETH, Arbitrum, RUNE, and ZEC swaps.

Gem Wallet now supports cross-chain swaps through Maya Protocol, effective June 10, 2026. Users can swap native Bitcoin, Ethereum, Arbitrum tokens, RUNE, and Zcash directly in the app - no bridges, no wrapped tokens, no third-party platforms required.

## What Is Maya Protocol?

<a href="https://www.mayaprotocol.com" rel="nofollow">Maya Protocol</a> is a cross-chain automated market maker built on CosmosSDK - architecturally similar to THORChain but deployed as a fully independent network. It enables native asset swaps between blockchains without bridges, wrapped tokens, or KYC. The protocol has processed over $748M in yearly swap volume across 671,020 transactions and 26 active liquidity pools. CACAO is Maya Protocol's native token, used to secure the network and distribute fees to liquidity providers.

## Benefits for Gem Wallet Users With Maya Protocol Integration

Gem Wallet keeps expanding cross-chain access for our users - and Maya Protocol is the latest step. With native asset swaps across Bitcoin, Ethereum, Arbitrum, THORChain, and Zcash, every user can now [swap](/swap/) across more networks, all within a single self-custody wallet.

- **Full Self-Custody:** Your private keys never leave your device. Maya Protocol swaps execute on-chain through protocol vaults - no third party holds your assets at any point.

- **Open-Source Code:** Gem Wallet is fully open-source and passed a CertiK audit in April 2026. Maya Protocol's code is open-source on GitLab - every layer of the swap logic is independently verifiable.

- **Privacy by Default:** Gem Wallet collects no user data - no phone number, no email, no ID required. Maya Protocol swaps require no KYC, matching Gem Wallet's privacy-first design.

- **Built-in DEX Aggregator:** Gem Wallet brings Maya Protocol, THORChain, NEAR Intents, Mayan, Chainflip, Uniswap, PancakeSwap, and others into one interface - more providers mean better rates and more consistent cross-chain coverage for our users.
