Chains
Each blockchain network is identified by a unique chain number in the Metalayer protocol. This chain identifier is used when specifying the destination chain for cross-chain messages.Cross-Chain Operations
Metalayer Messaging supports two types of cross-chain operations:- Writes: Send messages and execute functions across chains
- Reads: Query data from contracts on other chains
Message Components
- Destination Domain: The target blockchain network
- Recipient Address: The contract address that will receive the message
- Read Operations: Optional queries to execute on other chains
- Write Call Data: The function call to execute on the destination chain
- Finality Flag: Whether to wait for source chain finality before relay
