Storage Proofs Integration

Storage Proofs are a crucial component of Most Bridge's security system. They provide a way to cryptographically verify that a transaction has occurred on one blockchain and prove it on another, without requiring complex consensus mechanisms between the two chains.

How Storage Proofs Work

  1. Transaction Recording: When a Market Maker fulfills your order on the destination chain, the details of this transaction are stored in the blockchain's state.

  2. Proof Generation: The Market Maker then generates a proof of this storage state, which includes cryptographic evidence that your transaction was included in the blockchain.

  3. Verification: This proof is submitted to the source chain, where it can be verified without needing to directly access the destination chain.

  4. Fund Release: Once verified, the proof allows the locked funds to be released to the Market Maker on the source chain.

Benefits of Storage Proofs

  • Security: Provides cryptographic certainty that your transaction was completed.

  • Efficiency: Allows for fast verification without waiting for long confirmation periods.

  • Scalability: Works across different types of blockchains without requiring special compatibility.
