Cardano integrates IBC protocol to enhance connectivity and join the cross-chain ecosystem

Golden Finance reported that the Cardano Foundation announced the integration of the Inter-Blockchain Communication Protocol (IBC) to achieve reliable transactions and data exchange across different blockchain networks, enhancing connectivity and joining the cross-chain ecosystem. By introducing IBC functionality to Cardano, the project seeking to establish a bridge between the Cardano network and sidechains based on the Cosmos SDK may use this solution. In addition to joining the cross-chain ecosystem, the implementation of IBC for Cardano also adds another option to connect sidechains based on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) to Cardano. This will allow developers to seamlessly deploy EVM-based decentralized applications (DApps) on Cardano sidechains.
