# Introduction
2+
3+
IBC is a standard that defines how blockchains can send and receive messages to each other.
4+
This allows for the creation of a network of blockchains that can interact with each other.
5+
6+
You can use the IBC protocol as a building block to create your own custom protocols on top of it,
7+
but you can also use existing protocols like the [ICS-20 token transfer protocol]. In the following
8+
sections, we will explain how both of these work. Using CosmWasm for this gives you a key advantage
9+
over writing a custom Cosmos SDK module in Go: you can easily deploy and upgrade your contract
10+
without having to go through a full chain upgrade (on multiple chains, mind you).
