# How It Works

To provide the best routing across every blockchain through decentralized protocols, Rango has built the industry leading routing engine covering every ecosystem. 

When a request for routing is submitted to Rango’s routing engine, the engine goes through combinations of 100 dexes and 24 bridges across more than 50 blockchains to arrive at desirable paths.

Rango’s architecture is designed to be chain agnostic and hence, we support protocols across EVMs, Bitcoin, Cosmos, Solana, Starknet and other ecosystems. Rango’s infrastructure gathers data from every protocol to find good routes among thousands of possible paths. Rango provides access to all types of network from a single interface and API:

Rango covers a wide range of protocols and models such as RFQ, burn/mint, cross-chain pools and IBC. Rango leverages decentralized message passing systems such as GMP, LayerZero and IBC Memos to make sure the message passing and execution of the routes are handled through decentralized protocols.&#x20;
