Cross-Consensus Messaging (XCM) is the silent engine powering @polkadot 🔗✨
It creates a common language that lets parachains, the relay chain, and external blockchains coordinate in real time.
Assets move, credentials verify, and complex workflows run across networks without friction.
Every parachain chooses its level of connectivity, whether only to the relay chain, to a few partners, or to the entire network.
That’s why $DOT isn’t just a token, it’s the fuel of an interoperable ecosystem where multiple blockchains act as one 🌍.
Welcome to a true cross-chain world, where everyone is invited.
XCM is a framework for unified cross-chain messaging. Its rapid growth highlights Polkadot's expanding cross-chain interactions.
And coming soon... XCM v5 → faster and cheaper communication between rollups.
