Cross-Domain Proofs

Definition

Cross-domain proofs are cryptographic attestations that verify the correctness of computations or state transitions occurring in one distinct blockchain or computational environment (domain) for another. They enable interoperability by allowing one system to trust the validity of events or data from a separate domain without needing to replicate the entire computation. These proofs are essential for secure communication and asset transfers between disparate blockchain networks. Understanding cross-domain proofs is key to grasping the architecture of multi-chain ecosystems.
