<h2 id="3c63" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi"><strong class="iz hj">How does a cross-chain bridge work?</strong></h2>
<p id="c794" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">To understand how a cross-chain bridge work is first understand what a smart contract does.</p>
<p id="92ad" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">Smart contracts are programs run on the blockchain that are executed when pre-determined conditions are met. For example for an effective communication to take place between a French-speaking person and an Arabian. Either of them must be proficient in one language in common. A smart contract can be termed as the language of the Blockchain.</p>
<p id="c777" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">A cross-chain bridge typically consists of two main components. A bridge contract on each blockchain that is involved in the cross-chain transfer. A set of intermediary nodes that facilitate the transfer of assets or data between the two blockchains.</p>
<p id="3e68" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">To transfer assets or data between the two blockchains, the user first initiates the transfer on the source blockchain by calling the relevant bridge contract. This contract then sends a message to the intermediary nodes, which are responsible for verifying the validity of the transfer and ensuring that all necessary conditions are met.</p>
<p id="c584" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">Once the intermediary nodes have verified the transfer, they will broadcast a corresponding transaction to the destination blockchain, which will then execute the transfer and update its state accordingly. The entire process is typically automated and occurs in near real-time, allowing for quick and efficient cross-chain transfers.</p>
<p id="707e" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">The user can access assets or data on other blockchain using wallet or other software once they have been transferred. The user can take advantage of unique features or capabilities of network, while being able to access their assets.</p>
<h2 id="9af7" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi"><strong class="iz hj">A perfect case study for Acurast</strong></h2>
<p id="81df" class="pw-post-body-paragraph ix iy hi iz b ja jb ij jc jd je im jf jg jh ji jj jk jl jm jn jo jp jq jr js gq bi" data-selectable-paragraph="">Let’s say for example, A developer whom for the sake of this article will be named “Bruno”. A blockchain developer and building a Decentralized application on Polkadot for example.</p>
