CAIPs

Chain Agnostic Improvement Proposals (CAIPs) describe standards for blockchain projects that are not specific to a single chain.

The CAIPs are intended to be viewed and referenced at chainagnostic.org rather than on the current public git repository. To contribute, see the Contributing file.

CAIP Status Terms

  • Draft - an CAIP that is undergoing rapid iteration and changes.
  • Review - an CAIP that is done with its initial iteration and ready for review by a wide audience.
  • Accepted - a core CAIP that has been in Review for at least 2 weeks and any technical changes that were requested have been addressed by the author.

CAIP Index

Visit chainagnostic.org for the up-to-date index of all CAIPs listed by status.

Namespaces

Previously there were specific CAIPs for what is now referred to as namespaces. Chain Agnostic Namespaces describe a blockchain ecosystem or set of ecosystems as a namespace, relying as much as possible on the CAIP specifications to minimize the research needed to interact with assets, contracts, and accounts in that namespace. Where a namespace has been accepted by the editors, the former CAIPs have been superseded and ongoing specification should be continued there.
