Supports open-source decentralized Web3 messaging protocol
Overview
Wormhole Foundation manages a messaging protocol that allows different blockchain networks to transfer data and assets to one another. The technology works by providing a standardized framework that developers use to send messages across chains without needing to build custom connections for every individual network. Unlike competitors that may focus on specific bridges or centralized services, this organization maintains an open-source, decentralized standard for general communication across the entire Web3 ecosystem. Its goal is to create a fully connected blockchain landscape where information moves securely and seamlessly between any platform.
