Nomad

Overview

Nomad is an interoperability protocol for generalized message passing. We leverage an optimistic mechanism. There are no validators, and there is no blockchain. We're deployed as smart contracts between two chains, and has a lightweight off-chain component. This allows us to have less overhead and be more cost-efficient than other interoperability protocols.

• Hong Kong: Generally lower regulatory burden for infrastructure services
• Singapore: May fall under PSA exemptions
• Japan: Depends on specific functionality
