Bridging Ethereum apps to Avalanche
This flowchart illustrates the interoperability of applications running on different blockchain networks - Cosmos, Polkadot, and Ethereum - through the use of Landslide technology on the Avalanche network.
Starting from the left, we have three subgraphs representing the Cosmos, Polkadot, and Ethereum networks. Each network runs a specific application: Osmosis on Cosmos, DOT on Polkadot, and Synthetix on Ethereum.
These applications interact with their respective IBC light clients. For Cosmos, it's the Landslide SDK IBC light client; for Polkadot, it's the ; and for Ethereum, it's the Landslide EVM IBC light client. These light clients are responsible for maintaining a connection and facilitating communication between the networks.
All three light clients then connect to the IBC bridge, which serves as the main hub for transferring state between the source and target chains. The IBC bridge then connects to three more IBC light clients, which are responsible for transferring the source chain's state to the Avalanche network.
Finally, the state is transferred to the Avalanche network, where it's run natively inside an Avalanche subnet. This is represented by three subgraphs under Avalanche: Landslide running Synthetix, Landslide2 running OSMO, and Landslide3 running DOT. The transition between these subgraphs is facilitated by Avalanche Warp Messaging, indicating the flow of transactions within the Avalanche network.
This flowchart demonstrates how disparate applications on Cosmos, Polkadot, and Ethereum can be run natively inside an Avalanche subnet, as long as state is transferred safely between IBC light clients running on the source and target chain and transitioned through the IBC bridge.
