What is Interoperability?. Interoperability is the ability for different networks to exchange value or data reliably. It prevents walled gardens and lets assets move where they are most useful.
How it works
Bridges, messaging protocols, and standardized formats coordinate transfers and proofs between chains.
Why it matters
Interoperability unlocks liquidity and makes applications more flexible across ecosystems such as XRPL, Stellar, Hedera, Flare, and EVM networks.
Common pitfalls
- Trusting opaque bridges with admin keys
- Ignoring chain‑specific memo/tag requirements
- Moving assets without checking destination support
Quick example
A tokenized dollar moves from an EVM chain to a payments‑focused ledger to cut fees for remittances.
