IBC is a protocol that lets blockchains “talk” to each other, like a super secure postal service that delivers messages, data, or assets (like tokens or NFTs) between different blockchains. Think of each blockchain as a town with its own post office. Normally, these towns don’t share mail easily because they use different systems. IBC standardizes the process, ensuring messages (like a token transfer) are delivered securely and reliably without middlemen. Originally developed for the Cosmos ecosystem, Union extends IBC to non-Cosmos chains like Ethereum, SEI, and BNB Chain, making it a universal postal network for blockchains. Union uses IBC to enable trustless cross-chain communication, meaning no risky bridges or third parties are needed. It leverages light clients and modularity (as we discussed) to make IBC work across diverse blockchains, creating a seamless, secure way to move assets or data. HOW DOES IBC WORK IN UNION? Picture IBC as a postal service where each blockchain has a post office (light client) that sends, receives, and verifies mail (data or assets). ✔️ Sending Messages: When you want to transfer $USDT from Ethereum to Cosmos, Ethereum post office (a light client) creates a secure package (a message with a zero-knowledge proof) proving the $USDT was sent. This package is formatted using IBC’s standardized rules, like using a universal envelope that any blockchain’s post office can read. ✔️ Verifying with Light Clients: Cosmos’ post office (another light client) receives the package and checks the zk-proof to confirm the $USDT transfer is legit, without needing Ethereum entire transaction history. This trustless verification, enabled by Union’s modular light clients, ensures no middleman can tamper with the process. ✔️ Routing Across Chains: IBC’s routing module, like a postal delivery system, directs the message to the right blockchain. Union’s modular design (like a customizable postal network) lets it adapt routes for different chains, like SEI or Ethereum to BNB Chain. WHY IBC MATTERS IN UNION: ✔️ Trustless and Secure: Like a postal service with tamper-proof packages, IBC ensures transfers are verified directly by blockchains, reducing hack risks seen in traditional bridges. ✔️ Universal Connectivity: Union’s IBC extends up to XX chains ( connecting diverse ecosystems like a global postal network. ✔️ Efficient and Fast: Standardized messaging, combined with light clients, makes transfers quick and cheap, like express mail. ✔️ Scalable: Union’s modular IBC setup can add new chains easily, like opening new post offices without rebuilding the network.
