Since Namada supports Noble USDC now, could we leverage [Noble Express](https://express.noble.xyz/) (powered by Agoric and Skip/Hyperlane) to add IBC Transfers from any Noble Express supported chain into Namada?

Sending USDC from Optimism to Noble takes 20 seconds and costs $0.13 to move $100.

Additionally:

- Integrate Noble Express into Namadillo
- Ask Noble to add Namada as a target chain on Noble Express
- Explore the possibility for Shielded USDC Transfers
- Research integration with Agoric, [Skip](https://go.skip.build/), Hyperlane
- Find out if tokens other than USDC can also transferred to and from Namada through these platforms

Not a huge fan of stables but I think it’s worth researching agoric orchestration via skip. I think for many this will be a popular pathway into namada. 🧑‍🎓 🔎 🪄

What other options exist and what are the trade offs?
