## Create Script to Replace Outdated VAA Signatures
Now that we have all the necessary helper functions, we will create a script to automate replacing outdated VAA signatures. This script will retrieve a transaction’s VAA sequentially, check its validity, fetch the latest Guardian set, and update its signatures. By the end, it will output a correctly signed VAA that can be proposed for Guardian approval.
1. **Open the file**: Inside `src/scripts/replaceSignatures.ts`, import the required helper functions needed to process the VAAs.
```typescript title="src/scripts/replaceSignatures.ts"
fetchVaaId,
fetchVaa,
checkVaaValidity,
fetchObservations,
fetchGuardianSet,
replaceSignatures,
} from '../helpers/vaaHelper';
import { TXS } from '../config/constants';
```
2. **Define the main execution function**: Add the following function inside `src/scripts/replaceSignatures.ts` to process each transaction in `TXS`, going step by step through the signature replacement process.
```typescript
try {
for (const tx of TXS) {
console.log(`\nProcessing TX: ${tx}\n`);
// 1. Fetch Transaction VAA IDs:
const vaaIds = await fetchVaaId([tx]);
if (!vaaIds.length) continue;
// 2. Fetch VAA Data:
const vaaData = await fetchVaa(vaaIds);
if (!vaaData.length) continue;
const vaaBytes = vaaData[0].vaaBytes;
if (!vaaBytes) continue;
// 3. Check VAA Validity:
const { valid } = await checkVaaValidity(vaaBytes);
if (valid) continue;
// 4. Fetch Observations (VAA signatures):
const observations = await fetchObservations(vaaIds[0]);
// 5. Fetch Current Guardian Set:
const [currentGuardians, guardianSetIndex] = await fetchGuardianSet();
// 6. Replace Signatures:
const response = await replaceSignatures(
Buffer.from(vaaBytes, 'base64'),
observations,
currentGuardians,
guardianSetIndex
);
if (!response) continue;
}
} catch (error) {
console.error('❌ Error in execution:', error);
process.exit(1);
}
}
```
3. **Make the script executable**: Ensure it runs when executed.
```typescript
```
To run the script, use the following command:
```bash
npx tsx src/scripts/replaceSignatures.ts
```
npx tsx src/scripts/replaceSignatures.ts
Processing TX: 0x3ad91ec530187bb2ce3b394d587878cd1e9e037a97e51fbc34af89b2e0719367
❌ VAA Valid: false, Reason: VM signature invalid
Fetching observations
Fetching current guardian set
Replacing Signatures...

The script logs each step, skipping valid VAAs, replacing outdated signatures for invalid VAAs, and logging any errors. It then completes with a valid VAA ready for submission.
## Resources
You can explore the complete project and find all necessary scripts and configurations in Wormhole's [demo GitHub repository](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/demo-vaa-signature-replacement){target=\_blank}.
The demo repository includes a bonus script to check the VAA redemption status on Ethereum and Solana, allowing you to verify whether a transaction has already been redeemed on the destination chain.
## Conclusion
You've successfully built a script to fetch, validate, and replace outdated signatures in VAAs using Wormholescan and the Wormhole SDK.
It's important to note that this tutorial does not update VAAs in the Wormhole network. Before redeeming the VAA, you must propose it for Guardian approval to finalize the process.

description: Overview of Wormhole's architecture, detailing key on-chain and off-chain components like the Core Contract, Guardian Network, and relayers.
categories: Basics

# Architecture
Wormhole has several noteworthy components. Before discussing each component in depth, this page will provide an overview of how the major pieces fit together.
The preceding diagram outlines the end-to-end flow of multichain communication through Wormhole's architecture, which is described as follows:
1. **Source chain**: A source contract emits a message by interacting with the [Wormhole Core Contract](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/core-contracts/){target=\_blank} on the source chain, which publishes the message in the blockchain's transaction logs.
2. **Guardian Network**: [Guardians](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/guardians/){target=\_blank} validate these messages and sign them to produce [Verifiable Action Approvals (VAAs)](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank}.
3. **Relayers**: Off-chain relayers or applications fetch the VAA and relay it to the target chain. Relayers act as the transport layer of the Wormhole network, responsible for carrying signed messages between chains. In Wormhole’s protocol, this role is fulfilled by the [Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-overview/){target=\_blank}, a shared, permissionless framework for message delivery. The Executor enables anyone to act as a delivery provider through an open request-and-quote model, removing the need for centralized relayer services.
4. **Target chain**: On the target chain, the message is consumed by the appropriate contract. This contract interacts with the Wormhole Core Contract to verify the VAA and execute the intended multichain operation.
The flow from the relayer to the target chain involves an entry point contract, which could vary based on the use case:
- In some applications, the target contract acts as the entry point and performs verification via the Core Contract.
- In products like Wrapped Token Transfers (WTT), the WTT contract itself interacts with the Core Contract.
## On-Chain Components
- **Emitter**: A contract that calls the publish message method on the Core Contract. To identify the message, the Core Contract will write an event to the transaction logs with details about the emitter and sequence number. This may be your cross-chain dApp or an existing ecosystem protocol.
- **[Wormhole Core Contract](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/core-contracts/){target=\_blank}**: Primary contract, this is the contract which the Guardians observe and which fundamentally allows for multichain communication.
- **Transaction logs**: Blockchain-specific logs that allow the Guardians to observe messages emitted by the Core Contract.
## Off-Chain Components
- **Guardian Network**: Validators that exist in their own P2P network. Guardians observe and validate the messages emitted by the Core Contract on each supported chain to produce VAAs (signed messages).
- **[Guardian](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/guardians/){target=\_blank}**: One of 19 validators in the Guardian Network that contributes to the VAA multisig.
- **[Spy](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/spy/){target=\_blank}**: A daemon that subscribes to messages published within the Guardian Network. A Spy can observe and forward network traffic, which helps scale up VAA distribution.
- **[API](https://docs.wormholescan.io/){target=\_blank}**: A REST server to retrieve details for a VAA or the Guardian Network.
- **[VAAs](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank}**: Verifiable Action Approvals (VAAs) are the signed attestation of an observed message from the Wormhole Core Contract.
- **[Relayer](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/relayer/){target=\_blank}**: Any off-chain process that relays a VAA to the target chain.
- **[Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-framework/){target=\_blank}**: A decentralized relaying framework operated through Wormhole’s on-chain contracts. Executors deliver messages requested on-chain in a trust-minimized and permissionless manner.
- **[Custom relayers](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/relayer/#custom-relayer){target=\_blank}**: Relayers that only handle VAAs for a specific protocol or multichain application. They can execute custom logic off-chain, reducing gas costs and increasing multichain compatibility. Currently, multichain application developers are responsible for developing and hosting custom relayers.

# The Wormhole Ecosystem
[Wormhole](/docs/protocol/introduction/){target=\_blank} is a cross-chain messaging protocol connecting decentralized applications across multiple blockchains. It offers a suite of interoperability tools, each addressing different multichain challenges, and allows developers to mix and match these products as needed.
Whether you’re looking for a simple UI-based bridging experience, a native token transfer flow without wrapped assets, real-time cross-chain data queries, or an advanced settlement layer for complex asset movements, Wormhole has a product designed for that purpose. Every solution integrates with Wormhole’s core messaging network, ensuring each module can operate independently or in combination with others.
This page will guide you through the structural layout of these tools—how they fit together, can be used independently, and can be layered to build robust, multichain applications.
## Ecosystem Overview
The diagram shows a high-level view of Wormhole’s modular stack, illustrating how different tools are grouped into four layers:
- **Application and user-facing products**: The top layer includes user-centric solutions such as [Connect](/docs/products/connect/overview/){target=\_blank} (a simple bridging interface).
- **Asset and data transfer layer**: Below it sits the core bridging and data solutions—[NTT](/docs/products/token-transfers/native-token-transfers/overview/){target=\_blank}, [WTT](/docs/products/token-transfers/wrapped-token-transfers/overview/){target=\_blank}, [Queries](/docs/products/queries/overview/){target=\_blank}, [Settlement](/docs/products/settlement/overview/){target=\_blank}, and [MultiGov](/docs/products/multigov/overview/){target=\_blank}—that handle the movement of tokens, real-time data fetching, advanced cross-chain settlements, and cross-chain governance.
- **Integration layer**: The [TypeScript SDK](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/get-started/){target=\_blank} and [WormholeScan API](https://wormholescan.io/#/){target=\_blank} provide developer-friendly libraries and APIs to integrate cross-chain capabilities into applications.
- **Foundation layer**: At the base, the [Wormhole messaging](/docs/products/messaging/overview/){target=\_blank} system and the [core contracts](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/core-contracts/){target=\_blank} secure the entire network, providing essential verification and cross-chain message delivery.
## Bringing It All Together: Interoperability in Action
Wormhole’s modularity makes it easy to adopt just the pieces you need. If you want to quickly add bridging to a dApp, use Connect at the top layer while relying on the Foundation Layer behind the scenes. Or if your app needs to send raw messages between chains, integrate the Messaging layer directly via the Integration Layer (TypeScript or Solidity SDK). You can even layer on additional features—like real-time data calls from Queries or more flexible bridging flows with Native Token Transfers.
Ultimately, these components aren’t siloed but designed to be combined. You could, for instance, fetch a balance from one chain using Queries and then perform an on-chain swap on another chain using Settlement. Regardless of your approach, each Wormhole product is powered by the same Guardian-secured messaging backbone, ensuring all cross-chain interactions remain reliable and secure.

# Core Contracts
The Wormhole Core Contract is deployed across each supported blockchain network. This contract is a fundamental component of the Wormhole interoperability protocol and acts as the foundational layer enabling secure and efficient multichain messaging. All multichain applications either interact directly with the Core Contract or with another contract that does.
This page summarizes the key functions of the Core Contract and outlines how the Core Contract works.
## Key Functions
Key functions of the Wormhole Core Contract include the following:
- **Multichain messaging**: Standardizes and secures the format of messages to facilitate consistent communication for message transfer between Wormhole-connected blockchain networks, allowing developers to leverage the unique features of each network.
- **Verification and validation**: Verifies and validates all VAAs received on the target chain by confirming the Guardian signature to ensure the message is legitimate and has not been manipulated or altered.
- **Guardian Network coordination**: Coordinates with Wormhole's Guardian Network to facilitate secure, trustless communication across chains and ensure that only validated interactions are processed to enhance the protocol's overall security and reliability.
- **Event emission for monitoring**: Emits events for every multichain message processed, allowing for network activity monitoring like tracking message statuses, debugging, and applications that can react to multichain events in real time.
## How the Core Contract Works
The Wormhole Core Contract is central in facilitating secure and efficient multichain transactions. It enables communication between different blockchain networks by packaging transaction data into standardized messages, verifying their authenticity, and ensuring they are executed correctly on the destination chain.
The following describes the role of the Wormhole Core Contract in message transfers:
1. **Message submission**: When a user initiates a multichain transaction, the Wormhole Core Contract on the source chain packages the transaction data into a standardized message payload and submits it to the Guardian Network for verification.
2. **Guardian verification**: The Guardians independently observe and sign the message. Once enough Guardians have signed the message, the collection of signatures is combined with the message and metadata to produce a VAA.
3. **Message reception and execution**: On the target chain, the Wormhole Core Contract receives the verified message, checks the Guardians' signatures, and executes the corresponding actions like minting tokens, updating states, or calling specific smart contract functions.
For a closer look at how messages flow between chains and all of the components involved, you can refer to the [Architecture Overview](/docs/protocol/architecture/) page.
### Message Submission
You can send multichain messages by calling a function against the source chain Core Contract, which then publishes the message. Message publishing strategies can differ by chain; however, generally, the Core Contract posts the following items to the blockchain logs:
- **`emitterAddress`**: The contract which made the call to publish the message.
- **`sequenceNumber`**: A unique number that increments for every message for a given emitter (and implicitly chain).
- **`consistencyLevel`**: The level of finality to reach before the Guardians will observe and attest the emitted event. This is a defense against reorgs and rollbacks since a transaction, once considered "final," is guaranteed not to have the state changes it caused rolled back. Since different chains use different consensus mechanisms, each one has different finality assumptions, so this value is treated differently on a chain-by-chain basis. See the options for finality for each chain in the [Wormhole Finality](/docs/products/reference/consistency-levels/){target=\_blank} reference page.
There are no fees to publish a message except when publishing on Solana, but this is subject to change in the future.
### Message Reception
When you receive a multichain message on the target chain Core Contract, you generally must parse and verify the [components of a VAA](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas#vaa-format){target=\_blank}. Receiving and verifying a VAA ensures that the Guardian Network properly attests to the message and maintains the integrity and authenticity of the data transmitted between chains.
## Multicast
Multicast refers to simultaneously broadcasting a single message or transaction across different blockchains with no destination address or chain for the sending and receiving functions. VAAs attest that "this contract on this chain said this thing." Therefore, VAAs are multicast by default and will be verified as authentic on any chain where they are used.
This multicast-by-default model makes it easy to synchronize state across the entire ecosystem. A blockchain can make its data available to every chain in a single action with low latency, which reduces the complexity of the n^2 problems encountered by routing data to many blockchains.
This doesn't mean an application _cannot_ specify a destination address or chain. For example, the [Wrapped Token Transfers (WTT)](/docs/products/token-transfers/wrapped-token-transfers/overview/){target=\_blank} and [Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-overview/){target=\_blank} contracts require that some destination details be passed and verified on the destination chain.
Because the VAA creation is separate from relaying, the multicast model does not incur an additional cost when a single chain is targeted. If the data isn't needed on a certain blockchain, don't relay it there, and it won't cost anything.

# Guardians
Wormhole relies on a set of 19 distributed nodes that monitor the state on several blockchains. In Wormhole, these nodes are referred to as Guardians. The current Guardian set can be seen in the [Dashboard](https://wormhole-foundation.github.io/wormhole-dashboard/#/?endpoint=Mainnet){target=\_blank}.
Guardians fulfill their role in the messaging protocol as follows:
1. Each Guardian observes messages and signs the corresponding payloads in isolation from the other Guardians.
2. Guardians combine their independent signatures to form a multisig.
3. This multisig represents proof that a majority of the Wormhole network has observed and agreed upon a state.
Wormhole refers to these multisigs as [Verifiable Action Approvals](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank} (VAAs).
## Guardian Network
The Guardian Network functions as Wormhole's decentralized oracle, ensuring secure, cross-chain interoperability. Learning about this critical element of the Wormhole ecosystem will help you better understand the protocol.
The Guardian Network is designed to help Wormhole deliver on five key principles:
- **Decentralization**: Control of the network is distributed across many parties.
- **Modularity**: Independent components (e.g., oracle, relayer, applications) ensure flexibility and upgradeability.
- **Chain agnosticism**: Supports EVM, Solana, and other blockchains without relying on a single network.
- **Scalability**: Can handle large transaction volumes and high-value transfers.
- **Upgradeable**: Can change the implementation of its existing modules without breaking integrators to adapt to changes in decentralized computing.
The following sections explore each principle in detail.
### Decentralization
Decentralization remains the core concern for interoperability protocols. Earlier solutions were fully centralized, and even newer models often rely on a single entity or just one or two actors, creating low thresholds for collusion or failure.
Two common approaches to decentralization have notable limitations:
- **Proof-of-Stake (PoS)**: While PoS is often seen as a go-to model for decentralization, it's not well-suited for a network that verifies many blockchains and doesn't run its own smart contracts. Its security in this context is unproven, and it introduces complexities that make other design goals harder to achieve.
- **Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs)**: ZKPs offer a trustless and decentralized approach, but the technology is still early-stage. On-chain verification is often too computationally expensive—especially on less capable chains—so a multisig-based fallback is still required for practical deployment.
In the current De-Fi landscape, most major blockchains are secured by a small group of validator companies. Only a limited number of companies worldwide have the expertise and capital to run high-performance validators.
If a protocol could unite many of these top validator companies into a purpose-built consensus mechanism designed for interoperability, it would likely offer better performance and security than a token-incentivized network. The key question is: how many of them could Wormhole realistically involve?
To answer that, consider these key constraints and design decisions:
- **Threshold signatures allow flexibility, but**: With threshold signatures, in theory, any number of validators could participate. However, threshold signatures are not yet widely supported across blockchains. Verifying them is expensive and complex, especially in a chain-agnostic system.
- **t-Schnorr multisig is more practical**: Wormhole uses [t-Schnorr multisig](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnorr_signature){target=\_blank}, which is broadly supported and relatively inexpensive to verify. However, verification costs scale linearly with the number of signers, so the size of the validator set needs to be carefully chosen.
- **19 validators is the optimal tradeoff**: A set of 19 participants presents a practical compromise between decentralization and efficiency. With a two-thirds consensus threshold, only 13 signatures must be verified on-chain—keeping gas costs reasonable while ensuring strong security.
- **Security through reputation, not tokens**: Wormhole relies on a network of established validator companies instead of token-based incentives. These 19 Guardians are among the most trusted operators in the industry—real entities with a track record, not anonymous participants.
This forms the foundation for a purpose-built Proof-of-Authority (PoA) consensus model, where each Guardian has an equal stake. As threshold signatures gain broader support, the set can expand. Once ZKPs become widely viable, the network can evolve into a fully trustless system.
### Modularity
Wormhole is designed with simple components that are very good at a single function. Separating security and consensus (Guardians) from message delivery ([Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-overview/){target=\_blank}) allows for the flexibility to change or upgrade one component without disrupting the others.
### Chain Agnosticism
Today, Wormhole supports a broader range of ecosystems than any other interoperability protocol because it uses simple tech (t-schnorr signatures), an adaptable, heterogeneous relayer model, and a robust validator network. Wormhole can expand to new ecosystems as quickly as a [Core Contract](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/core-contracts/){target=\_blank} can be developed for the smart contract runtime.
### Scalability
Wormhole scales well, as demonstrated by its ability to handle substantial total value locked (TVL) and transaction volume even during tumultuous events.
Every Guardian must run a full node for every blockchain in the ecosystem. This requirement can be computationally heavy to set up; however, once all the full nodes are running, the Guardian Network's actual computation needs become lightweight.
Performance is generally limited by the speed of the underlying blockchains, not the Guardian Network itself.
### Upgradeable
Wormhole is designed to adapt and evolve in the following ways:
- **Guardian Set expansion**: Future updates may introduce threshold signatures to allow for more Guardians in the set.
- **ZKP integration**: As Zero-Knowledge Proofs become more widely supported, the network can transition to a fully trustless model.
These principles combine to create a clear pathway towards a fully trustless interoperability layer that spans decentralized computing.

# Relayers
!!!warning
The Wormhole standard relayer is being deprecated. Developers are strongly encouraged to migrate to the [Executor framework](#executor).
This page provides a comprehensive guide to relayers within the Wormhole network, describing their role, types, and benefits in facilitating multichain processes.
Relaying refers to the process of delivering a cross-chain message, specifically a [Verified Action Approval (VAA)](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank}, from its source chain to the destination chain. In a multichain application, after a message is emitted on the source chain and signed by Wormhole’s Guardians, it must be carried over to the target chain’s contract – this is the responsibility of the Executor or, in advanced setups, a custom relayer.
At a fundamental level, the Executor is a system composed of an on-chain contract deployed by Wormhole and a permissionless network of off-chain relay providers. The contract handles request registration and fee escrow, while off-chain providers monitor these requests, fetch VAAs from the Guardians, and execute them on the destination chain. This design allows anyone to participate in message delivery without relying on a centralized relayer service.
Relayers do not need to be trusted; the security of Wormhole messages stems from the Guardian Network signatures on the VAA, which cannot be tampered with by relayers. In other words, a relayer cannot alter the content or outcome of a message – it can only affect when the message gets delivered (availability). This trust-minimized design means developers and users don’t have to trust a relayer service to preserve integrity, only to be online to forward the message.
## Fundamentals
This section highlights the crucial principles underpinning the operation and handling of relayers within the Wormhole network.
Relayers are fundamentally trustless entities within the network, meaning while they don't require your trust to operate, you also shouldn't trust them implicitly. They function as delivery mechanisms, transporting VAAs from their source to their destination.
- **Anyone can relay a message**: Guardians broadcast signed VAAs publicly, so any entity can retrieve a VAA and submit it to the destination chain’s contracts. The signatures provide universal verifiability; any Wormhole contract or client can check the Guardian signatures. These properties ensure that relaying can be permissionless and trustless. If one relayer is down, any other party (even the user) could take the VAA and deliver it. No relayer can forge or modify the message without invalidating the signatures.
- **Security is in the VAA**: The Wormhole Guardians’ signatures authenticate the message. A relayer might provide additional info or off-chain data, but contracts should not rely on anything that isn’t from a verified VAA or on-chain source. This ensures that even though relayers operate off-chain, they cannot compromise the application’s logic or funds. In summary, relayers can’t compromise security, only availability – if a relayer misbehaves, the worst outcome is a delayed or missed delivery, not a falsified message.
- **User experience vs. infrastructure**: Relayers exist to improve user experience by automating cross-chain steps that would otherwise be manual. However, using relayers introduces considerations around fees and infrastructure. Developers must either rely on an external relayer service or run their own. Wormhole’s design offers flexibility: developers can choose an entirely client-side (no relayer) approach or opt for either Wormhole-provided relayer networks or custom relayers that developers build themselves. Each approach has its benefits and trade-offs in terms of complexity, cost, and control, as we explore next.
## Manual vs. Automated Relaying
When integrating Wormhole messaging, developers must choose between manual (client-side) relaying and automated relaying. The distinction lies in the entity responsible for delivering the VAA to the target chain.
- **Manual relaying (client-side)**: This approach puts the burden on the user or their client (e.g., a dApp or wallet) to carry out all cross-chain steps. After an action on chain A produces a VAA, the user must manually fetch that VAA (typically via a Wormhole API or explorer) and then submit it in a transaction on chain B. No specialized backend is needed. The relayer role is handled directly by the user via their wallet or web browser. The advantage lies in the simplicity of architecture (no extra services to run) and no additional fees beyond the target chain’s transaction fees. However, this approach provides a limited user experience beyond basic demos, as it requires users to sign multiple transactions and maintain funds on each chain involved. This process can be cumbersome and error-prone, as the additional step may be unclear and lead to drop-offs. In summary, manual relaying is suitable for testing and MVPs, but it's not ideal for production-grade applications.
- **Automated relaying**: In this approach, the cross-chain delivery is handled automatically by a relayer service or network, rather than the end-user. From the user’s perspective, the message is delivered to the target chain without requiring manual intervention. Automated relaying significantly improves the user experience by allowing an asset transfer to be initiated with a single action, after which the funds are delivered to the destination chain. There are two ways to achieve automated relaying:
- **Build a relayer service (custom backend)**: Run an off-chain service that listens for VAAs and forwards them. This approach provides full control (e.g., gas optimization, batch transactions, retry handling), but requires building and maintaining backend infrastructure.
- **Use a relayer network provided by Wormhole**: Leverage Wormhole’s decentralized relayer service, which requires minimal integration and no infrastructure to run. Developers can request delivery of messages through on-chain calls, while an untrusted external delivery provider handles execution. This removes the need to run a service, at the cost of service fees, and shifts the complexity away from the user, resulting in a smoother experience.
Choosing between manual and automated relaying often comes down to the specific needs of the product. If the integrator prioritizes convenience, automated relaying (via either a Wormhole service or a custom service) provides a superior experience.
| Aspect | Manual Relaying (Client-Side) | Automated Relaying |
|----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| VAA Delivery | User or client application | Relayer service or network (custom or Wormhole) |
| Infrastructure | None required | Either a backend service or Wormhole’s relayer network |
| User Experience | Multiple signatures, funds on each chain, extra manual step | One-click transfers, message delivered automatically |
| Cost Model | Only target chain transaction fees | Service fees + destination chain gas |
| Reliability | Depends on user completing all steps | Relayer handles retries and execution |
| Best Suited For | Testing, MVPs, demos | Production-grade applications prioritizing UX |
## Types of Relayers
To simplify the adoption of automated relaying, Wormhole provides its relayer infrastructure and APIs for developers to utilize.
The [Executor framework](#executor) is Wormhole’s primary relayer infrastructure, enabling trustless, permissionless message delivery across chains. For advanced use cases, developers can also build [custom relayers](#custom-relaying) using Wormhole’s tooling. Both approaches follow Wormhole’s core principle of trust-minimized delivery, ensuring that message integrity never depends on relayer operators.
Wormhole currently supports two types of relayers:
- **Executor**: A permissionless, next-generation framework that enables anyone to act as a relayer, with support for multichain delivery and custom pricing through a request–quote model.
- **Custom relayer**: An application-run service tailored to specific needs, offering maximum flexibility and optimization at the cost of higher operational overhead.
| Aspect | Executor | Custom Relayer |
|-----------------|--------------------------------------------------|------------------------------|
| Who Runs It | Permissionless network of providers | Application team |
| Chain Support | Out of the box on all Wormhole-supported chains | Any Wormhole-supported chain (manual setup required) |
| Integration | Executor contracts with request–quote model | Custom backend service |
| Infrastructure | None (on-chain only) | Full backend required, 24/7 availability |
| User Experience | Seamless, broader chain support | App-specific optimizations possible |
| Trade-offs | Early rollout, limited initial availability | High DevOps cost, must stay secure |
### Executor
The [Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-overview/){target=\_blank} is Wormhole’s next-generation cross-chain execution framework, designed to extend relaying functionality beyond EVM chains and add greater flexibility to how deliveries are processed. The Executor system enables anyone to act as a relayer (often referred to as a [relay provider](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-framework/#relay-provider){target=\_blank}) in a permissionless network, introducing a request-and-quote model for delivering messages. The Executor architecture still relies on the core Wormhole guarantees (VAAs for security, Guardian verification), but it changes how the relaying service is accessed and who can fulfill it.
In the Executor model, Wormhole deploys a lightweight [Executor Contract](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-framework/#executor-contract){target=\_blank} on every supported chain. Relayers do not own the executor contract, which is available for anyone to interact with, making it stateless and permissionless. When an application requests cross-chain message delivery via the Executor, it first fetches a signed fee quote off-chain from a chosen executor provider. It then calls the Executor contract on the source chain, providing the target chain, target address, and that signed quote.
The Executor contract essentially records an Execution Request, escrows the payment (including a small fee), and emits an event that off-chain executor nodes are listening for. An available executor node corresponding to the provided quote will then take the VAA and execute the message on the destination chain. Execution works similarly to how a standard relayer would — for example, by calling the target contract with the message payload. Because the execution network is open, different providers can offer pricing quotes for message delivery, and developers or users can choose competitively. This fosters a decentralized marketplace of relayers, rather than a single service.
```mermaid
sequenceDiagram
participant App as Application
participant ExContract as Executor Contract (Source Chain)
participant ExecNode as Executor Node (Off-chain)
participant Dest as Target Contract (Destination Chain)
App<<->>ExecNode: Fetch signed quote
App->>ExContract: Submit Execution Request
(target chain, target address, signed quote)
ExContract->>ExecNode: Emit event with request + escrowed fee
ExecNode-->>ExecNode: Listen for events
Match signed quote
ExecNode->>Dest: Deliver VAA + execute message payload
Dest-->>App: Target contract logic executed
```
For developers, integrating the [Executor framework](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-framework/){target=\_blank} can be as straightforward as using the standard relayer, with the added benefit of supporting non-EVM chains and custom pricing logic. It’s described as _a permissionless, extensible, and low-overhead cross-chain execution framework_. The extensibility means the system is built to accommodate various message types and future features, and permissionless means integrators are not tied to a single provider – it is possible to run an executor node if desired, or rely on community-run services. The Executor is part of Wormhole’s effort to make relaying truly multichain. For example, delivering messages to Solana or other ecosystems where an EVM-style relayer contract is insufficient will be possible through this framework.
The Messaging Executor is a recent addition, and its availability might initially be limited to specific chains as it rolls out. It works alongside the Wormhole core messaging contract, complementing the existing relayer system. As the Executor network grows, developers get the advantage of broader chain support without having to custom-build their relayers for those environments. The Executor remains fully trust-minimized — execution providers cannot compromise message security, and their signed quotes simply ensure fair compensation for delivery.
For more technical details, see the [open-source example Executor implementation](https://github.com/wormholelabs-xyz/example-messaging-executor){target=\_blank}. It explains how quotes, requests, and the off-chain API function within the Executor system.
### Custom Relayer
For projects with special requirements or the need for complete control, custom relaying is an option. This involves building and running a relayer service tailored to the application. A custom relayer typically runs as a backend service that listens for specific VAAs from the Wormhole network (often via a [Spy](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/spy/){target=\_blank}) and then submits transactions to the destination chain when relevant messages are observed. Because Wormhole VAAs are public and trustless, anyone can run a relayer — an integrator could even operate a private relayer that only handles their own protocol’s messages.
The primary motivation for choosing this route is flexibility and optimization; another reason may be specific chains where an Executor is still not available. With an off-chain component, developers can:
- Apply conditional logic like aggregating multiple messages and relaying them in a single transaction (batching).
- Trigger delivery logic (e.g., timing, price feeds, external signals) before delivery.
- Perform computations off-chain to reduce on-chain gas costs.
- Design custom incentive structures (e.g., funded by a protocol treasury or user-paid fees).
- Enhance the user experience with optimizations specific to an app.
**Trade-offs**
- Must run 24/7 with dedicated infrastructure (servers or cloud functions).
- Requires ongoing DevOps and monitoring to ensure availability.
- More complex development: integrators must handle Wormhole messages securely and always verify VAAs.
- May need to manage cross-chain fee payments.
- Provides maximum flexibility, but with higher operational responsibility.
To simplify development, Wormhole provides the [Relayer Engine](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/relayer-engine){target=\_blank}, a tool that abstracts boilerplate tasks such as listening to Guardians, parsing messages, and handling retries. Developers can then focus on application-specific logic, such as filtering relevant VAAs, forwarding to multiple chains, or applying off-chain checks.

# Spy
In Wormhole's ecosystem, the _Spy_ is a daemon, a continuously running background process that monitors messages within the Guardian Network. Unlike Guardians, a Spy doesn't perform validation; instead, it serves as an interface for observing the network's message traffic, enabling applications and users to access live data transmitted over Wormhole.
The primary purpose of a Spy is to subscribe to the gossiped messages across the Guardian Network, tracking key message types that allow integrators and applications to monitor real-time network activity without directly engaging in consensus operations.
This page provides a comprehensive guide to where the Spy fits within the Wormhole network, describing the key features and role in facilitating multichain processes.
## Key Features
- **Real-time monitoring of Wormhole messages**: The Spy allows users to observe Wormhole messages as they are published across supported chains in near real-time.
- **Filterable and observable message streams**: Users can filter message streams by chain, emitter, and other criteria, making it easier to track specific contracts or categories of interest.
- **Integration-friendly event streaming**: The Spy exposes gRPC and WebSocket interfaces, making it easy to integrate message observation into custom tooling, dashboards, or indexing services.
- **Support for multiple message protocols**: It can observe messages from different Wormhole messaging protocols (WTT, CCTP, NTT, etc.), providing broad coverage of cross-chain activity.
- **Lightweight and infrastructure-ready**: The Spy is designed to run as part of indexing or backend services, not requiring validator-level infrastructure.
## Integrator Use Case
The Spy provides a valuable mechanism for integrators to observe real-time network activity in the Guardian Network without directly engaging in validation or consensus. By running a Spy, integrators can track multichain events and message flows — such as VAAs, observations, and Guardian heartbeats — to monitor network activity essential to their applications.
This monitoring capability is especially beneficial for applications that need immediate insights into multichain data events. Integrators can run a Spy to ensure their applications are promptly informed of message approvals, observations, or Guardian liveness signals, supporting timely and responsive app behavior without additional overhead on network resources.
## Observable Message Categories
A Spy can access the following categories of messages shared over the gossip protocol:
- **[Verifiable Action Approvals (VAAs)](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank}**: Packets of multichain data.
- The Spy can detect whether a VAA has been approved by the Guardian Network, making it a valuable tool for applications needing real-time multichain verification.
- **[Observations](/docs/products/reference/glossary/#observation){target=\_blank}**: Emitted by Wormhole's core contracts, observations are picked up by the Guardians and relayed across the network.
- A Spy allow users to monitor these messages, adding transparency and insight into blockchain events.
- **[Guardian heartbeats](/docs/products/reference/glossary/#heartbeat){target=\_blank}**: Heartbeat messages represent Guardian node status.
- By monitoring heartbeats, a Spy can signal the liveness and connectivity of Guardians in the network.

# Verified Action Approvals
Verified Action Approvals (VAAs) are Wormhole's core messaging primitive. They are packets of cross-chain data emitted whenever a cross-chain application contract interacts with the Core Contract.
[Guardians](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/guardians/){target=\_blank} validate messages emitted by contracts before sending them to the target chain. Once a majority of Guardians agree the message is valid, they sign a keccak256 hash of the message body.
The message is wrapped up in a structure called a VAA, which combines the message with the Guardian signatures to form a proof.
VAAs are uniquely indexed by the (`emitter_chain`, `emitter_address`, `sequence`) tuple. To obtain a VAA, one can query the [Wormholescan API](https://docs.wormholescan.io/){target=\_blank} with this information.
The `sequence` field depends on the final ordering of blocks on the emitter chain. When a lower consistency level is chosen (i.e., not waiting for finality), there is a chance that chain reorganizations could lead to multiple, different VAAs appearing for what looks like the “same” message on the user side.
The tuple (`emitter_chain`, `emitter_address`, `sequence`) can only be considered unique if the chain does not undergo a reorg and the block containing the message has effectively reached finality. However, there is always a small chance of an extended reorg that could invalidate or alter a previously emitted sequence number.
## VAA Format
The basic VAA consists of header and body components described as follows:
- **Header**: Holds metadata about the current VAA, the Guardian set that is currently active, and the list of signatures gathered so far.
- **`version` ++"byte"++**: The VAA Version.
- **`guardian_set_index` ++"u32"++**: Indicates which Guardian set is signing.
- **`len_signatures` ++"u8"++**: The number of signatures stored.
- **`signatures` ++"[]signature"++**: The collection of Guardian signatures.
Where each `signature` is:
- **`index` ++"u8"++**: The index of this Guardian in the Guardian set.
- **`signature` ++"[65]byte"++**: The ECDSA signature.
- **Body**: _deterministically_ derived from an on-chain message. Any two Guardians processing the same message must derive the same resulting body to maintain a one-to-one relationship between VAAs and messages to avoid double-processing messages.
- **`timestamp` ++"u32"++**: The timestamp of the block this message was published in.
- `nonce` ++"u32"++.
- **`emitter_chain` ++"u16"++**: The id of the chain that emitted the message.
- **`emitter_address` ++"[32]byte"++**: The contract address (Wormhole formatted) that called the Core Contract.
- **`sequence` ++"u64"++**: The auto-incrementing integer that represents the number of messages published by this emitter.
- **`consistency_level` ++"u8"++**: The consistency level (finality) required by this emitter.
- **`payload` ++"[]byte"++**: Arbitrary bytes containing the data to be acted on.
The deterministic nature of the body is only strictly true once the chain's state is finalized. If a reorg occurs, and a transaction that previously appeared in block X is replaced by block Y, Guardians observing different forks may generate different VAAs for what the emitter contract believes is the same message. This scenario is less likely once a block is sufficiently buried, but it can still happen if you choose a faster (less finalized) consistency level
The body contains relevant information for entities, such as contracts or other systems, that process or utilize VAAs. When a function like `parseAndVerifyVAA` is called, the body is returned, allowing verification of the `emitterAddress` to determine if the VAA originated from a trusted contract.
Because VAAs have no destination, they are effectively multicast. Any Core Contract on any chain in the network will verify VAAs as authentic. If a VAA has a specific destination, relayers are responsible for appropriately completing that delivery.
## Consistency and Finality
The consistency level determines whether Guardians wait for a chain's final commitment state or issue a VAA sooner under less-final conditions. This choice is especially relevant for blockchains without instant finality, where the risk of reorganization remains until a block is deeply confirmed.
Guardian watchers are specialized processes that monitor each blockchain in real-time. They enforce the selected consistency level by deciding whether enough commitment has been reached before signing and emitting a VAA. Some chains allow only one commitment level (effectively final), while others let integrators pick between near-final or fully finalized states. Choosing a faster option speeds up VAA production but increases reorg risk. A more conservative option takes longer but reduces the likelihood of rollback.
## Signatures
The body of the VAA is hashed twice with `keccak256` to produce the signed digest message.
```js
// hash the bytes of the body twice
digest = keccak256(keccak256(body))
// sign the result
signature = ecdsa_sign(digest, key)
```
!!!tip "Hash vs. double hash"
Different implementations of the ECDSA signature validation may apply a keccak256 hash to the message passed, so care must be taken to pass the correct arguments.
For example, the [Solana secp256k1 program](https://solana.com/docs/core/programs#secp256k1-program){target=\_blank} will hash the message passed. In this case, the argument for the message should be a single hash of the body, not the twice-hashed body.
## Payload Types
Different applications built on Wormhole may specify a format for the payloads attached to a VAA. This payload provides information on the target chain and contract so it can take action (e.g., minting tokens to a receiver address).
### Token Transfer
Many bridges use a lockup/mint and burn/unlock mechanism to transfer tokens between chains. Wormhole's generic message-passing protocol handles the routing of lock and burn events across chains to ensure Wormhole's Wrapped Token Transfer (WTT) is chain-agnostic and can be rapidly integrated into any network with a Wormhole contract.
Transferring tokens from the sending chain to the destination chain requires the following steps:
1. Lock the token on the sending chain.
2. The sending chain emits a message as proof the token lockup is complete.
3. The destination chain receives the message confirming the lockup event on the sending chain.
4. The token is minted on the destination chain.
The message the sending chain emits to verify the lockup is referred to as a transfer message and has the following structure:
- **`payload_id` ++"u8"++**: The ID of the payload. This should be set to `1` for a token transfer.
- **`amount` ++"u256"++**: Amount of tokens being transferred.
- **`token_address` ++"u8[32]"++**: Address on the source chain.
- **`token_chain` ++"u16"++**: Numeric ID for the source chain.
- **`to` ++"u8[32]"++**: Address on the destination chain.
- **`to_chain` ++"u16"++**: Numeric ID for the destination chain.
- **`fee` ++"u256"++**: Portion of amount paid to a relayer.
This structure contains everything the destination chain needs to learn about a lockup event. Once the destination chain receives this payload, it can mint the corresponding asset.
Note that the destination chain is agnostic regarding how the tokens on the sending side were locked. They could have been burned by a mint or locked in a custody account. The protocol relays the event once enough Guardians have attested to its existence.
### Attestation
While the destination chain can trust the message from the sending chain to inform it of token lockup events, it has no way of verifying the correct token is locked up. To solve this, WTT supports token attestation.
To create a token attestation, the sending chain emits a message containing metadata about a token, which the destination chain may use to preserve the name, symbol, and decimal precision of a token address.
The message format for token attestation is as follows:
- **`payload_id` ++"u8"++**: The ID of the payload. This should be set to `2` for an attestation.
- **`token_address` ++"[32]byte"++**: Address of the originating token contract.
- **`token_chain` ++"u16"++**: Chain ID of the originating token.
- **`decimals` ++"u8"++**: Number of decimals this token should have.
- **`symbol` ++"[32]byte"++**: Short name of asset.
- **`name` ++"[32]byte"++**: Full name of asset.
#### Attestation Tips
Be aware of the following considerations when working with attestations:
- Attestations use a fixed-length byte array to encode UTF8 token name and symbol data. Because the byte array is fixed length, the data contained may truncate multibyte Unicode characters.
- When sending an attestation VAA, it is recommended to send the longest UTF8 prefix that doesn't truncate a character and then right-pad it with zero bytes.
- When parsing an attestation VAA, it is recommended to trim all trailing zero bytes and convert the remainder to UTF-8 via any lossy algorithm.
- Be mindful that different on-chain systems may have different VAA parsers, resulting in different names/symbols on different chains if the string is long or contains invalid UTF8.
- Without knowing a token's decimal precision, the destination chain cannot correctly mint the number of tokens when processing a transfer. For this reason, WTT requires an attestation for each token transfer.
### Token Transfer with Message
The Token Transfer with Message data structure is identical to the token-only data structure, except for the following:
- **`fee` field**: Replaced with the `from_address` field.
- **`payload` field**: Is added containing arbitrary bytes. A dApp may include additional data in this arbitrary byte field to inform some application-specific behavior.
This VAA type was previously known as Contract Controlled Transfer and is also sometimes referred to as a `payload3` message. The Token Transfer with Message data sructure is as follows:
- **`payload_id` ++"u8"++**: The ID of the payload. This should be set to `3` for a token transfer with message.
- **`amount` ++"u256"++**: Amount of tokens being transferred.
- **`token_address` ++"u8[32]"++**: Address on the source chain.
- **`token_chain` ++"u16"++**: Numeric ID for the source chain.
- **`to` ++"u8[32]"++**: Address on the destination chain.
- **`to_chain` ++"u16"++**: Numeric ID for the destination chain.
- **`from_address` ++"u8[32]"++**: Address that called WTT on the source chain.
- **`payload` ++"[]byte"++**: Message, arbitrary bytes, app-specific.
### Governance
Governance VAAs don't have a `payload_id` field like the preceding formats. Instead, they trigger an action in the deployed contracts (for example, an upgrade).
#### Action Structure
Governance messages contain pre-defined actions, which can target the various Wormhole modules currently deployed on-chain. The structure includes the following fields:
- **`module` ++"u8[32]"++**: Contains a right-aligned module identifier.
- **`action` ++"u8"++**: Predefined governance action to execute.
- **`chain` ++"u16"++**: Chain the action is targeting. This should be set to `0` for all chains.
- **`args` ++"any"++**: Arguments to the action.
Below is an example message containing a governance action triggering a code upgrade to the Solana Core Contract. The module field here is a right-aligned encoding of the ASCII Core, represented as a 32-byte hex string.
```js
module: 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000436f7265
action: 1
chain: 1
new_contract: 0x348567293758957162374959376192374884562522281937446234828323
```
#### Actions
The meaning of each numeric action is pre-defined and documented in the Wormhole design documents. For each application, the relevant definitions can be found via these links:
- [Core governance actions](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/whitepapers/0002_governance_messaging.md){target=\_blank}
- [WTT governance actions](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/whitepapers/0003_token_bridge.md){target=\_blank}
## Lifetime of a Message
Anyone can submit a VAA to the target chain. Guardians typically don't perform this step to avoid transaction fees. Instead, applications built on top of Wormhole can acquire a VAA via the Guardian RPC and submit it in a separate flow.
With the concepts now defined, it is possible to illustrate a full flow for message passing between two chains. The following stages demonstrate each step of processing that the Wormhole network performs to route a message.
1. **A message is emitted by a contract running on Chain A**: Any contract can emit messages, and the Guardians are programmed to observe all chains for these events. Here, the Guardians are represented as a single entity to simplify the graphics, but the observation of the message must be performed individually by each of the 19 Guardians.
2. **Signatures are aggregated**: Guardians independently observe and sign the message. Once enough Guardians have signed the message, the collection of signatures is combined with the message and metadata to produce a VAA.
3. **VAA submitted to target chain**: The VAA acts as proof that the Guardians have collectively attested the existence of the message payload. The VAA is submitted (or relayed) to the target chain to be processed by a receiving contract and complete the final step.

# Introduction to Wormhole
In the rapidly evolving landscape of blockchain technology, interoperability between different blockchains remains a significant challenge. Developers often face hurdles in creating applications that can seamlessly operate across multiple blockchains, limiting innovation and the potential of decentralized ecosystems.
Wormhole addresses this problem by providing a _generic message-passing_ protocol that enables secure and efficient communication between blockchains. By allowing data and asset transfers across various blockchain networks, Wormhole breaks down the walls that traditionally separate these ecosystems.
Wormhole is distinguished by its focus on robust security, scalability, and transparency. The protocol is supported by a decentralized network of validators that ensure the integrity of every cross-chain transaction. This, combined with Wormhole’s proven performance in real-world applications, gives developers a dependable platform to create and scale multichain applications confidently.
!!! note
The above is an oversimplified illustration of the protocol; details about the architecture and components are available on the [architecture page](/docs/protocol/architecture/){target=\_blank}.
Wormhole allows developers to leverage the strengths of multiple blockchain ecosystems without being confined to one. This means applications can benefit from the unique features of various networks—such as Solana's high throughput, Ethereum's security, and Cosmos's interoperability while maintaining a unified, efficient user experience.
This page introduces the key concepts and components necessary to understand how Wormhole enables fast, secure, and scalable cross-chain communication.
## What Problems Does Wormhole Solve?
Interoperability is a critical challenge in the rapidly evolving blockchain landscape. Individual blockchains are often isolated, limiting the potential for integrated applications operating across multiple ecosystems. Wormhole solves this problem by enabling seamless communication between blockchains, allowing developers to create multichain applications that can leverage the unique features of each network.
Critical problems Wormhole addresses include:
- **Blockchain isolation**: Wormhole connects disparate blockchains, enabling the transfer of assets, data, and governance actions across networks.
- **Cross-chain complexity**: By abstracting the complexities of cross-chain communication, Wormhole makes it easier for developers to build and deploy cross-chain applications.
- **Security and decentralization**: Wormhole prioritizes security through a decentralized Guardian network that validates and signs messages, ensuring the integrity of cross-chain interactions.
## What Does Wormhole Offer?
Wormhole provides a suite of tools and protocols that support a wide range of use cases:
- **Cross-chain messaging**: Securely transfer arbitrary data between blockchains, enabling the development of cross-chain decentralized applications.
- **Asset transfers**: Facilitate the movement of tokens across supported chains with ease, powered by protocols built on Wormhole like [Portal](https://portalbridge.com/){target=\_blank}.
- **Developer tools**: Leverage Wormhole’s [TypeScript SDK](/docs/tools/typescript-sdk/get-started/){target=\_blank}, [Wormholescan](https://wormholescan.io/){target=\_blank}, and the [Wormholescan API](https://wormholescan.io/#/developers/api-doc){target=\_blank} and documentation to build and deploy cross-chain applications quickly and efficiently.
## What Isn't Wormhole?
- **Wormhole is _not_ a blockchain**: It acts as a communication layer that connects different blockchains, enabling them to interact without being a blockchain itself.
- **Wormhole is _not_ a token bridge**: While it facilitates token transfers, Wormhole also supports a wide range of cross-chain applications, making it much more versatile than a typical bridge.
## Use Cases of Wormhole
Consider the following examples of potential applications enabled by Wormhole:
- **Cross-chain exchange**: Using [Wormhole Connect](/docs/products/connect/overview/){target=\_blank}, developers can build exchanges that allow deposits from any Wormhole-connected chain, significantly increasing liquidity access.
- [**Cross-chain governance**](https://wormhole.com/blog/stake-for-governance-guide){target=\_blank}: Projects with communities spread across multiple blockchains can use Wormhole to relay votes from each chain to a designated governance chain, enabling unified decision-making through combined proposals.
- **Cross-chain game**: Games can be developed on a performant network like Solana, with rewards issued on another network, such as Ethereum.

# Security
## Core Security Assumptions
At its core, Wormhole is secured by a network of [Guardian](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/guardians/){target=\_blank} nodes that validate and sign messages. If a super majority (e.g., 13 out of 19) of Guardians sign the same message, it can be considered valid. A smart contract on the target chain will verify the signatures and format of the message before approving any transaction.
- Wormhole's core security primitive is its signed messages (signed [VAAs](/docs/protocol/infrastructure/vaas/){target=\_blank}).
- The Guardian network is currently secured by a collection of 19 of the world's top [validator companies](https://wormhole-foundation.github.io/wormhole-dashboard/#/?endpoint=Mainnet){target=\_blank}.
- Guardians produce signed state attestations (signed VAAs) when requested by a Core Contract integrator.
- Every Guardian runs full nodes (rather than light nodes) of every blockchain in the Wormhole network, so if a blockchain suffers a consensus attack or hard fork, the blockchain will disconnect from the network rather than potentially produce invalid signed VAAs.
- Any Signed VAA can be verified as authentic by the Core Contract of any other chain.
- The [Executor](/docs/products/messaging/concepts/executor-framework/){target=\_blank} is considered untrusted in the Wormhole ecosystem. It can affect message availability (timing of delivery) but cannot alter or forge VAAs, as validity is enforced by Guardian signatures.
In summary:
- **Core integrators aren't exposed to risk from chains and contracts they don't integrate with**.
- By default, you only trust Wormhole's signing process and the core contracts of the chains you're on.
- You can expand your contract and chain dependencies as you see fit.
Core assumptions aside, many other factors impact the real-world security of decentralized platforms. Here is more information on additional measures that have been put in place to ensure the security of Wormhole.
## Guardian Network
Wormhole is an evolving platform. While the Guardian set currently comprises 19 validators, this is a limitation of current blockchain technology.
### Governance
Governance is the process through which contract upgrades happen. Guardians manually vote on governance proposals that originate inside the Guardian Network and are then submitted to ecosystem contracts.
This means that governance actions are held to the same security standard as the rest of the system. A two-thirds supermajority of the Guardians is required to pass any governance action.
Governance messages can target any of the various wormhole modules, including the core contracts and all currently deployed Wrapped Token Transfers (WTT) contracts. When a Guardian signs such a message, its signature implies a vote on the action in question. Once more than two-thirds of the Guardians have signed, the message and governance action are considered valid.
All governance actions and contract upgrades have been managed via Wormhole's on-chain governance system.
Via governance, the Guardians can:
- Change the current Guardian set.
- Expand the Guardian set.
- Upgrade ecosystem contract implementations.
The governance system is fully open source in the core repository. See the [Open Source section](#open-source){target=\_blank} for contract source.
## Monitoring
A key element of Wormhole's defense-in-depth strategy is that each Guardian is a highly competent validator company with its own in-house processes for running, monitoring, and securing blockchain operations. This heterogeneous approach to monitoring increases the likelihood that fraudulent activity is detected and reduces the number of single failure points in the system.
Guardians are not just running Wormhole validators; they're running validators for every blockchain inside of Wormhole as well, which allows them to perform monitoring holistically across decentralized computing rather than just at a few single points.
Guardians monitor:
- **Block production and consensus of each blockchain**: If a blockchain's consensus is violated, it will be disconnected from the network until the Guardians resolve the issue.
- **Smart contract level data**: Via processes like the Governor, Guardians constantly monitor the circulating supply and token movements across all supported blockchains.
- **Guardian level activity**: The Guardian Network functions as an autonomous decentralized computing network, ensuring independent security measures across its validators.
## Asset Layer Protections
One key strength of the Wormhole ecosystem is the Guardians’ ability to validate and protect the integrity of assets across multiple blockchains.
To enforce the Wormhole Asset Layer’s core protections, the Global Accountant tracks the total circulating supply of all Wormhole assets across all chains, preventing any blockchain from bridging assets that could violate the supply invariant.
In addition to the Global Accountant, Guardians may only sign transfers that do not violate the requirements of the Governor. The [Governor](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/whitepapers/0007_governor.md){target=\_blank} tracks inflows and outflows of all blockchains and delays suspicious transfers that may indicate an exploit.
## Open Source

# Core Contract (EVM)
The [Wormhole Core Contract on EVM](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/ethereum/contracts/Implementation.sol){target=\_blank} chains is a proxy-based contract responsible for receiving and verifying Wormhole messages (VAAs). It implements the messaging interface and delegates logic to upgradeable implementation contracts.
## Structure Overview
The Wormhole Core system consists of a proxy contract and a modular implementation constructed through layered inheritance.
```text

- **Implementation.sol**: The main logic contract, which handles message publication and initialization. Inherits from Governance.sol.
- **Governance.sol**: Core governance logic for processing upgrades, setting fees, and updating the Guardian set. Also responsible for verifying governance VAAs and performing privileged actions.
- **Getters.sol**: Exposes view functions to access internal contract state, such as current Guardian sets, fees, and contract configuration.
- **GovernanceStructs.sol**: Provides structures and helpers for processing governance-related VAAs.
- **Messages.sol**: Handles VAA parsing and verification.
- **Setters.sol**: Contains internal functions for mutating contract state.
- **Structs.sol**: Defines core data structures like GuardianSet and VM (VAA Message) used across multiple modules.

**Key Components:**
- **lib.rs**: Program entry point and instruction dispatcher. Registers all handlers and exposes the on-chain processor.
- **instructions.rs**: Defines the `WormholeInstruction` enum and maps it to individual instruction handlers.
- **accounts.rs**: Specifies the account constraints and validation logic for each instruction.
- **api.rs**: Contains the main logic for processing instructions such as message posting, VAA verification, upgrades, and governance actions.
- **types.rs**: Defines shared structs and enums used throughout the program, including configuration and `GuardianSet` formats.
- **vaa.rs**: Implements VAA parsing, hashing, and signature-related logic used to verify Wormhole messages.
- **error.rs** (not listed above): Defines custom error types used across the program for precise failure handling.
- **wasm.rs** (not listed above): Provides WebAssembly bindings for testing and external tooling; not used on-chain.
## State Accounts
Below are on-chain PDAs used to store persistent state for the core contract. All are derived using deterministic seeds with the program ID.
- **`bridge` ++"BridgeData"++**: Stores global config like the active Guardian set index, message fee, and Guardian set expiration time. (Derived at PDA seed `["Bridge"]`)
- **`guardianSets` ++"GuardianSetData"++**: Mapping of Guardian sets by index. Each Guardian set includes public key hashes and creation/expiration times. (Derived at PDA seed `["GuardianSet", index]`)
- **`sequences` ++"SequenceTracker"++**: Tracks the last sequence number used by each emitter, enforcing strict message ordering. (Derived at PDA seed `["Sequence", emitter]`)
- **`postedVAAs` ++"PostedVAAData"++**: Stores verified and finalized VAAs, preventing replay. (Derived at PDA seed `["PostedVAA", hash]`)
- **`claims` ++"ClaimData"++**: Tracks consumed governance VAAs to ensure replay protection. (Derived at PDA seed `["Claim", emitter, sequence]`)
- **`feeCollector` ++"FeeCollector"++**: Holds lamports collected via message fees, and can be drained via governance. (Derived at PDA seed `["fee_collector"]`)

# Relayer Contract
The [Wormhole Relayer Contract on EVM](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/relayer/ethereum/contracts/relayer/wormholeRelayer/WormholeRelayer.sol){target=\_blank} enables cross-chain message delivery with automatic execution on the destination chain. It publishes delivery instructions as Wormhole messages and defines the logic to process them via the `deliver` function. The contract supports optional value forwarding, gas refunds, message overrides, and integration with third-party delivery providers.
## Structure Overview
The Wormhole Relayer system on EVM is implemented as a modular, upgradeable contract suite, organized through layered inheritance and interfaces.
```text
IWormholeRelayer.sol (Interface)
└── WormholeRelayerBase.sol
├── WormholeRelayer.sol
├── CircleRelayer.sol
└── TypedUnits.sol
DeliveryProvider.sol (Standalone)
```
**Key Components:**
- **IWormholeRelayer.sol**: Defines the public interface for the Wormhole Relayer, including delivery functions and fee quoting.
- **WormholeRelayerBase.sol**: Base logic contract shared by both WormholeRelayer and CircleRelayer. Handles delivery processing, fee management, and VAA parsing.
- **WormholeRelayer.sol**: Main relayer implementation used with the Wormhole Messaging protocol. Inherits from `WormholeRelayerBase`.
- **CircleRelayer.sol**: Specialized implementation for Circle messages. Also extends `WormholeRelayerBase`, but is out of scope for this reference.
- **TypedUnits.sol**: Utility module for safe unit conversions, fee accounting, and delivery quote handling.
- **DeliveryProvider.sol**: Separate contract that sets and manages delivery pricing and supported chains. Queried by the relayer when calculating fees.
## State Variables
- **`chainId` ++"uint16"++**: Wormhole chain ID for the current network (e.g., 2 for Ethereum).
- **`wormhole` ++"IWormhole"++**: Address of the core Wormhole messaging contract used to verify VAAs.
- **`deliveryProvider` ++"address"++**: Address of the Delivery Provider contract responsible for quoting and setting delivery prices.
- **`rewardAddress` ++"address"++**: Address that receives excess fees collected from users.
- **`gasOverheads` ++"mapping(uint16 => GasOverhead)"++**: Per-chain gas overheads used to calculate delivery costs.
- **`supportedChains` ++"mapping(uint16 => bool)"++**: Tracks which destination chains are supported for message delivery.
- **`deliveries` ++"mapping(bytes32 => bool)"++**: Records completed deliveries (by VAA hash) to prevent replay.
- **`deliverySuccessBlock` ++"mapping(bytes32 => uint256)"++**: Stores the block number when a delivery succeeded (used for auditing).
- **`owner` ++"address"++**: Contract owner with permission to update system parameters (e.g., gas overheads).
- **`chainHash` ++"uint256"++**: EVM chain ID hash used for cross-checking delivery source chain.
- **`implementation` ++"address"++**: Address of the current logic contract (used in proxy pattern).

# Chain IDs
The following table documents the chain IDs used by Wormhole and places them alongside the more commonly referenced [EVM Chain IDs](https://chainlist.org/){target=\_blank}.
!!! note
Please note, Wormhole chain IDs are different than the more commonly referenced [EVM chain IDs](https://chainlist.org/){target=\_blank}, specified in the Mainnet and Testnet ID columns.
!!!warning
Wormhole Contributors recommend that all connected chains implement robust security practices including (but not exclusively): open sourcing code and running public bug bounty programs, undergoing security audits and publishing those reports, using version control with adequate access controls and mandatory code review, and high unit and integration test coverage where the results of those tests are available publicly. Connected chains that can't verifiably prove that they've implemented a high percentage of these practices may be noted below with the :warning: symbol.
Wormhole integrators are encouraged to understand the security assumptions of any chain before trusting messages from it. See the recommended security practices for chains in [Wormhole's security program](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole/blob/main/SECURITY.md#chain-integrators){target=\_blank}.

# Wormhole Finality
The following table documents each chain's `consistencyLevel` values (i.e., finality reached before signing). The consistency level defines how long the Guardians should wait before signing a VAA. The finalization time depends on the specific chain's consensus mechanism. The consistency level is a `u8`, so any single byte may be used. However, a small subset has particular meanings. If the `consistencyLevel` isn't one of those specific values, the `Otherwise` column describes how it's interpreted.

!!! note
Guardian-governed ownership contracts are used where an owner is required, without adding new trust assumptions. They only accept instructions signed by a quorum of Wormhole Guardians, validated on-chain by the Wormhole Core contracts. Implementations: [EVM](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/native-token-transfers/blob/main/evm/src/wormhole/Governance.sol){target=\_blank} and [SVM](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/native-token-transfers/blob/main/solana/programs/wormhole-governance/src/instructions/governance.rs){target=\_blank}.

!!! note
Read-only deployments allow Wormhole messages to be received on chains not fully integrated with Wormhole Guardians. These deployments support cross-chain data verification but cannot originate messages. For example, a governance message can be sent from a fully integrated chain and processed on a read-only chain, but the read-only chain cannot send messages back.

# Wormhole Formatted Addresses
Wormhole formatted addresses are 32-byte hex representations of addresses from any supported blockchain. Whether an address originates from EVM, Solana, Cosmos, or another ecosystem, Wormhole standardizes all addresses into this format to ensure cross-chain compatibility.
This uniform format is essential for smooth interoperability in token transfers and messaging across chains. Wormhole uses formatted addresses throughout the [Wormhole SDK](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole-sdk-ts){target=\_blank}, especially in cross-chain transactions, such as transfer functions that utilize the `bytes32` representation for recipient addresses.
## Platform-Specific Address Formats
Each blockchain ecosystem Wormhole supports has its method for formatting native addresses. To enable cross-chain compatibility, Wormhole converts these native addresses into the standardized 32-byte hex format.
Here’s an overview of the native address formats and how they are normalized to the Wormhole format:
| Platform | Native Address Format | Wormhole Formatted Address |
|-----------------|----------------------------------|----------------------------|
| EVM | Hex (e.g., 0x...) | 32-byte Hex |
| Solana | Base58 | 32-byte Hex |
| CosmWasm | Bech32 | 32-byte Hex |
| Algorand | Algorand App ID | 32-byte Hex |
| Sui | Hex | 32-byte Hex |
| Aptos | Hex | 32-byte Hex |
| Near | SHA-256 | 32-byte Hex |
These conversions allow Wormhole to interact seamlessly with various chains using a uniform format for all addresses.
### Address Format Handling
The Wormhole SDK provides mappings that associate each platform with its native address format. You can find this mapping in the Wormhole SDK file [`platforms.ts`](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole-sdk-ts/blob/007f61b27c650c1cf0fada2436f79940dfa4f211/core/base/src/constants/platforms.ts#L93-L102){target=\_blank}:
```typescript
const platformAddressFormatEntries = [
['Evm', 'hex'],
['Solana', 'base58'],
['Cosmwasm', 'bech32'],
['Algorand', 'algorandAppId'],
['Sui', 'hex'],
['Aptos', 'hex'],
['Near', 'sha256'],
];
```
These entries define how the [`UniversalAddress`](https://github.com/wormhole-foundation/wormhole-sdk-ts/blob/007f61b27c650c1cf0fada2436f79940dfa4f211/core/definitions/src/universalAddress.ts#L23){target=\_blank} class handles different address formats based on the platform.
## Universal Address Methods
The `UniversalAddress` class is essential for working with Wormhole formatted addresses. It converts native blockchain addresses into the standardized 32-byte hex format used across Wormhole operations.
Key functions:
- **`new UniversalAddress()`**: Use the `UniversalAddress` constructor to convert native addresses into the Wormhole format.
```typescript
const universalAddress = new UniversalAddress('0x123...', 'hex');
```
- **`toUniversalAddress()`**: Converts a platform-specific address into the Wormhole formatted 32-byte hex address.
```typescript
const ethAddress: NativeAddress<'Evm'> = toNative('Ethereum', '0x0C9...');
const universalAddress = ethAddress.toUniversalAddress().toString();
```
- **`toNative()`**: Converts the Wormhole formatted address back to a native address for a specific blockchain platform.
```typescript
const nativeAddress = universalAddress.toNative('Evm');
```
- **`toString()`**: Returns the Wormhole formatted address as a hex string, which can be used in various SDK operations.
```typescript
console.log(universalAddress.toString());
```
These methods allow developers to convert between native addresses and the Wormhole format, ensuring cross-chain compatibility.
## Convert Between Native and Wormhole Formatted Addresses
The Wormhole SDK allows developers to easily convert between native addresses and Wormhole formatted addresses when building cross-chain applications.
### Convert a Native Address to a Wormhole Formatted Address
Example conversions for EVM and Solana:
=== "EVM"
```typescript
import { toNative } from '@wormhole-foundation/sdk-core';
const ethAddress: NativeAddress<'Evm'> = toNative(
'Ethereum',
'0x0C99567DC6f8f1864cafb580797b4B56944EEd28'
);
const universalAddress = ethAddress.toUniversalAddress().toString();
console.log('Universal Address (EVM):', universalAddress);
```
=== "Solana"
```typescript
import { toNative } from '@wormhole-foundation/sdk-core';
const solAddress: NativeAddress<'Solana'> = toNative(
'Solana',
'6zZHv9EiqQYcdg52ueADRY6NbCXa37VKPngEHaokZq5J'
);
const universalAddressSol = solAddress.toUniversalAddress().toString();
console.log('Universal Address (Solana):', universalAddressSol);
```
The result is a standardized address format that is ready for cross-chain operations.
### Convert Back to Native Addresses
Below is how you can convert a Wormhole formatted address back to an EVM or Solana native address:
```typescript
const nativeAddressEvm = universalAddress.toNative('Evm');
console.log('EVM Native Address:', nativeAddressEvm);
const nativeAddressSolana = universalAddress.toNative('Solana');
console.log('Solana Native Address:', nativeAddressSolana);
```
These conversions ensure that your cross-chain applications can seamlessly handle addresses across different ecosystems.
## Use Cases for Wormhole Formatted Addresses
### Cross-chain Token Transfers
Cross-chain token transfers require addresses to be converted into a standard format. For example, when transferring tokens from Ethereum to Solana, the Ethereum address is converted into a Wormhole formatted address to ensure compatibility. After the transfer, the Wormhole formatted address is converted back into the Solana native format.
### Smart Contract Interactions
In smart contract interactions, especially when building dApps that communicate across multiple chains, Wormhole formatted addresses provide a uniform way to reference addresses. This ensures that addresses from different blockchains can interact seamlessly, whether you're sending messages or making cross-chain contract calls.
### DApp Development
For cross-chain dApp development, Wormhole formatted addresses simplify handling user wallet addresses across various blockchains. This allows developers to manage addresses consistently, regardless of whether they work with EVM, Solana, or another supported platform.
### Relayers and Infrastructure
Finally, relayers and infrastructure components, such as Wormhole Guardians, rely on the standardized format to efficiently process and relay cross-chain messages. A uniform address format simplifies operations, ensuring smooth interoperability across multiple blockchains.
