## Low latency
Interoperability allows for horizontally scalable blockchains, a key feature of the Superchain. With Superchain interop, latency can be 1-block (~2 seconds) by optimistically accepting cross-chain messages.

## Permissionless dependency set
The interop protocol works via a dependency set which is configured on a per-chain basis and is a unidirectional relationship that defines the set of chains that a chain will accept incoming messages from.

This gives the OP Stack an unopinionated and flexible foundation, so chain operators can choose which chains their chains depend on, and it is not a requirement that chains are in each other's dependency set.
## Interop clusters
The interop protocol works via a dependency set which is configured on a per-chain basis. The dependency set defines the set of chains that a chain will accept incoming messages from. To prevent tokens from being sent to a chain that doesn't accept incoming messages, the protocol enforces that messages can only be sent to chains within its dependency set.

## Superchain interop cluster
The Superchain builds on top of the interop protocol and implements a single mesh network with complete dependencies. In this model, each blockchain in the Superchain interop cluster would have direct connections to every other blockchain, creating a fully connected mesh network. Compared to a hub and spoke model, this provides the highest level of interoperability, as any blockchain can transact directly with any other.
