    Absolutely agree. Waiting a week for bridges is a major hindrance to unifying Ethereum effectively. Both crypto-native and real-world asset issuers find it difficult to wait several days for asset transfers between chains. Seven-day canonical bridges compel asset issuers to rely on third-party solutions, which is not ideal if Ethereum is to become the global digital asset settlement layer.

      Canonical bridging doesn't need to be instantaneous; security is the top priority. However, with current technology (thanks to ZK!), we can achieve safe bridging within 15 minutes to an hour. By combining this with intents, which allow for "instant" bridging for smaller transactions, asset issuers can enjoy the advantages of both worlds: trustless, secure bridging for unlimited size, and quick, economical bridging for retail-sized transactions.
