  * @notice The contract itself emits events and locks the funds to be bridged/teleported. These events are then picked up by a backend service that releases the corresponding token or native asset on the destination network. Withdrawal periods (e.g. for optimistic rollups) are not handled by the contract itself, but would be handled on the Teleportation service if deemed necessary.
  * @dev Implementation of the Teleportation service can be found at https://github.com/bobanetwork/boba within /packages/boba/teleportation if not moved.
