Symbiosis Relayers Network

Symbiosis Relayers Network Introduction

Components of the Symbiosis protocol

The Symbiosis Relayers Network is a peer-to-peer (P2P) network that enables the reliable and secure transmission of data required for cross-chain operations within the Symbiosis protocol. As the off-chain component of the Symbiosis protocol, it facilitates communication between blockchain networks.

Why is communication between blockchain networks needed?

Blockchain networks are designed to operate in isolation, unaware of events occurring outside their boundaries. While this approach works well for operations limited to a single chain, cross-chain operations require an off-chain component to coordinate actions and transfer data across multiple networks. The Symbiosis Relayers Network fulfills this role by ensuring data integrity and accuracy during cross-chain operations handled by the Symbiosis protocol.

Symbiosis Relayers Network Economics

The security and incentives of the Symbiosis protocol are maintained through two complementary mechanisms:

  1. Symbiosis PoS Staking, and

  2. Symbiotic Staking.

These mechanisms work together to secure the protocol and incentivize participants.
