Interoperability is the final frontier of the modular stack, and the most important one.
The IBC protocol allows the expansion of blockchain technology through reliable and safe scalability. However, new tools and solutions are needed to future-proof its structure and maintain its role as a public good. ZK-proof trustless validations facilitate this, providing greater interoperability through self-sovereign IBC protocols.
