Interoperability has become a hot keyword in the blockchain space over the last few years. Principally, a blockchain’s interoperability is the potential ability to communicate between blockchain ecosystems through the construction of linking chains or ‘bridges’. These bridges ensure that two different blockchain mechanisms can interact, share information, and connect.

Due to the fact that every single blockchain stores different information, building an interoperable system ensures that communication across the blockchain is as effective as possible. With more individual chains all working together in an interoperable system, the power of the ecosystem as a whole is boosted.

Systems that rely heavily on interoperability see a vast range of positive benefits, spanning everything from increased transaction speeds to a more extensive range of potential applications of the blockchain. The connection between these chains relies on cross-chain technologies, which allow different pathways to be forged and sustained between two or more different blockchains.

As an ecosystem becomes more interoperable, the blockchain technology itself becomes more effective, helping to build projects, launch multi-token transactions, boost privacy, and further develop the potential security that an ecosystem can offer. In short, interoperability is one of the most important aspects of blockchain and will help further develop the whole industry.

In this article, we’ll be taking a look at the leading blockchain ecosystems that are pushing forward blockchain interoperability on both a microcosmic and macrocosmic
