  Wormhole is a decentralized cross-chain messaging and interoperability
  protocol connecting 45+ blockchain networks. It provides REST APIs for
  querying VAA (Verifiable Action Approval) status, native and wrapped
  token transfers, cross-chain operations, and Guardian Network data via
  the Wormholescan API. Developers can build multichain applications with
  the TypeScript SDK, CLI tooling, and the Connect bridging widget.
