Frequently asked questions
How does an ISM work?
An ISM defines the conditions under which a message from a source chain is considered verified on the destination chain, typically by specifying a set of validators or a verification algorithm.
What types of ISMs exist?
Common ISM types include MultisigISM, which requires a threshold of validator signatures, RoutingISM, which forwards verification to other ISMs, and custom implementations tailored to specific security needs.
