  • Publication number: 20260179090
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for efficiently executing transactions across different processing domains in a distributed computing system. An example method generally includes receiving a request to transfer a quantity of tokens from a source processing domain to a target processing domain. Based on detecting initiation of a burn operation for the quantity of tokens on the source processing domain, the quantity of tokens are minted on the target processing domain. The minting is generally performed using resources in a cross-domain reserve resource pool. A request associated with the minting generally includes a signature generated by an issuer of the tokens and associated with the burn operation on the source processing domain. Execution of the request is finalized based on minting the quantity of tokens on the target processing domain.

  • Publication number: 20260080393
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure provide a method for performing a blockchain-based transaction, comprising: broadcasting a burn operation on a first blockchain in a first message including a first recipient address and an amount of cryptocurrency to be burned; receiving an attestation of the first message from an attestation service; rebroadcasting the burn operation on the first blockchain in a second message including the attestation of the first message and a second recipient address; receiving an attestation of the second message from the attestation service; and causing the amount of cryptocurrency to be minted on a second blockchain.

  • Publication number: 20240202679
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for performing a blockchain-based transaction, comprising: executing a first process on a first blockchain, including: causing a first amount of cryptocurrency to be burned on the first blockchain according to a burn operation; formatting a message to include one or more details of the burn operation; and emitting the message to an event log associated with the first blockchain; requesting an attestation from an attestation service based on a hash of the message emitted to the event log; receiving the attestation from the attestation service; and executing a second process on a second blockchain, including: providing the message and the attestation to the second blockchain; and causing a second amount of cryptocurrency to be minted on the second blockchain based on the message.
