How the Bridge Works (Under the Hood)

Step 1 - Escrow on Source Chain

Your tokens are locked in an IBC module escrow account.

Step 2 - IBC Packet Broadcast

A packet containing token denomination, amount, sender, and receiver is relayed over a dedicated channel.

Step 3 - Voucher Minting on Destination

Migrate an entire position upward; a fresh lock timer starts, existing rewards remain intact.

Step 4 - Redemption / Un‑escrow

When tokens flow back, vouchers burn and the original escrow unlocks.

Because escrow and mint/burn happen atomically with light‑client proofs, there is no central custodian.
