Summary

  • Explains Chain Fusion vision: cross-chain interoperability without bridges or oracles
  • Covers the three building blocks: chain-key signatures, reading external chain state, submitting transactions
  • Documents three integration patterns: direct (Bitcoin, Dogecoin), dedicated RPC canister (Ethereum/EVM, Solana), raw HTTPS outcalls (all other chains)
  • Includes supported chains table with signature schemes, integration methods, and chain-key tokens
  • Covers chain-key tokens (ckBTC, ckETH, ckERC20) as the bridgeless asset model
  • Lists building blocks: Bitcoin API, EVM RPC canister, SOL RPC canister, chain-key tokens, Chain Fusion Signer (with OISY Wallet as production example)
  • Lists example use cases: trustless cronjobs, multichain wallets, onchain frontends, cross-chain DeFi, decentralized oracles
  • Deduplicates the supported chains table from chain-key-cryptography.md — that page now cross-links here instead of maintaining its own copy
  • Records three decisions in decisions.md

Explain how ICP connects to other blockchains without bridges or oracles.
Covers chain-key signatures, integration patterns (direct, RPC canister,
HTTPS outcalls), supported chains table, chain-key tokens, and example
use cases.
- Remove full supported-chains table from chain-key-cryptography (replaced
  with cross-link to chain-fusion#supported-chains)
- Add "Building blocks" section to chain-fusion concept page listing
  Bitcoin API, EVM RPC, SOL RPC, chain-key tokens, and Chain Fusion Signer
- Mention OISY Wallet as a production example of Chain Fusion Signer
- Fix cross-reference text between the two concept pages
- Record three decisions in decisions.md
