**APIs profiled:** 9

Axelar is a decentralized cross-chain communication network that enables secure interoperability across 80+ blockchains including EVM chains, Cosmos, Solana, Sui, Stellar, and XRPL. The network provides General Message Passing (GMP) for arbitrary cross-chain contract calls, the Interchain Token Service (ITS) for deploying and bridging tokens across chains, and the Axelarscan API suite for querying network state, validator metrics, token transfer status, and GMP transaction data. Developer tooling includes the AxelarJS SDK, the Mobius Development Stack (MDS), and Axelar Virtual Machine (AVM).
