Interoperability

Blockchain General · Shallow

The ability of different blockchains to communicate and share data or assets. Achieved through bridges (Wormhole), messaging protocols (LayerZero, Axelar), and shared standards. Cross-chain interoperability enables multi-chain DeFi, unified liquidity, and chain-agnostic applications. Solana connects to other chains primarily through Wormhole and Circle's CCTP.
