Wormhole
What is Wormhole?
Wormhole is a general-purpose messaging protocol that allows smart contracts, applications, and users to communicate across blockchains. It supports a wide range of chains, including Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, Avalanche, and many others. Wormhole’s core features include:
Cross-Chain Asset Transfers: Move tokens and NFTs between chains securely.
Arbitrary Messaging: Send data and instructions across chains for complex cross-chain interactions.
Decentralized Security: Relies on a network of 19+ guardians (validators) to ensure message integrity and prevent fraud.
How Wormhole Works in MoreMarkets
Wormhole is integrated into MoreMarkets’ architecture through the ReceiptTeller and RouterTeller components.
WormholeTeller allows messages to be received and passed into the protocol expected by the rest of the components such as the BoringVault. ReceiptTeller and RouterTeller inherit this class and allow for back-and-forth trust-minimized messaging between the Principal Chain and the Receipt Chain.
