Cross-Chain Asset Movement

Definition

Cross-chain asset movement refers to the transfer of digital assets from one independent blockchain network to another. This process enables interoperability between different ledgers, allowing assets to be utilized in various decentralized applications across ecosystems. Mechanisms for cross-chain movement often involve atomic swaps, wrapped assets, or specialized bridge protocols. The ability to move assets between chains is fundamental for expanding the utility and liquidity of digital assets.
