Asset interoperability allows for tokens to securely move across chains without asset wrapping or liquidity pools for maximal capital efficiency, thus unifying liquidity and simplifying the user experience.

***Permissionless propagation**: Easily clone an existing token contract to a new OP Stack chain using `create2` without requiring the original owner, which enables movement of assets to the new chain once Interop goes live. Importantly, permissionless propagation retains the integrity of the original owner on the contract and preserves security but proliferates the contract's availability to new chains.

***Token Burning**: Initiating message where token is **burned** on the source chain. A user initiates a transfer of token from one blockchain to another and specifies the recipient wallet address on the destination chain. A specified amount of token is burned on the source chain.

***Token Minting**: Executing message where token is **minted** on the destination chain. The specified amount of token is minted on the destination chain directly to the recipient wallet address.
