  • Share the latest crosschain research. - Provide opportunities for research collaboration.
  • Help developers stay across the latest research.
  • Provide a forum for practitioners to talk about how crosschain technology is being used and the challenges that they face.
  • Have a cross pollination of ideas.
  • Help us all gain a better understanding of the trade-offs of the various approaches.
