XCM Compatibility refers to the ability of different parachains and the Polkadot Relay Chain to communicate and exchange messages, assets, and functionality using Polkadot’s Cross-Consensus Message Format. This standardized messaging protocol enables seamless and secure interoperability within the Polkadot ecosystem. It allows distinct blockchain environments to operate as a cohesive unit. This capability is central to Polkadot’s design for a multi-chain future.
