In this week’s episode, Anna (https://twitter.com/annarrose) dives back into the Polkadot world with friend and occasional co-host Rob Habermeier (https://twitter.com/rphmeier) from Parity. They cover XCM - the Cross-Consensus Messaging format - and how XCM allows parachains to speak to one another, passing messages through the validators on the relay chain via XCMP Cross-Chain Message Passing.

Today’s episode is sponsored by Polygon Miden (https://polygon.technology/solutions/polygon-miden).
Polygon Miden is layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum. Miden relies on ZK-STARKs to roll-up thousands of layer 2 transactions into a single Ethereum transaction, increasing throughput and reducing fees.
At the heart of Polygon Miden is Miden VM, a Turing-complete STARK-based virtual machine which provides a level of safety and support of advanced features currently not available on Ethereum.
