# Cross Chain Infrastructure

## Overview

Cross-chain infrastructure enables applications on Pharos to interact with other blockchain networks. It allows developers to move assets, send messages, and build applications that operate across multiple ecosystems.

For developers building multi-chain applications or integrating external liquidity and users, cross-chain infrastructure is a key component.

## What You Can Do with Cross-Chain Infrastructure

* Transfer assets between networks
* Send messages across chains
* Build omnichain applications
* Access liquidity and users from other ecosystems
* Coordinate logic across multiple chains

## Why It Matters

Modern applications often extend beyond a single blockchain. Cross-chain infrastructure allows Pharos-based applications to integrate with other networks, improving composability and expanding reach.

## Available Solutions

Pharos supports cross-chain solutions for asset transfers and messaging.

Refer to the pages below for setup and usage:

* Chainlink CCIP
* Circle CCTP
* LayerZero

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.pharos.xyz/tooling-and-infrastructure/cross-chain.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
