Abstract

A system for facilitating communication between layer 2 networks is disclosed. The system may include a first layer 2 network and a second layer 2 network. One or more of the first or second layer 2 network may include a communication platform that is configured to define a protocol for establishing communication between the first and second layer 2 network. Furthermore, based at least in part on the protocol, a bridge may be generated that communicatively couples the first and second layer 2 networks. In some embodiments, generating a bridge may include generating a smart contract to facilitate communication between the first and second layer 2 networks.
