Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol
fraisrevu il y a 0 j
Short definition
Chainlink’s protocol for communication between blockchains. It carries messages whose attestations are checked at the destination; token contracts then perform the configured operations, such as minting or releasing units. Controls, finality and rights over the asset depend on configuration and legal arrangements.

Each chain keeps its own ledger. A transfer requires checking the source message before changing the destination ledger.
