Wormhole

Wormhole is a decentralized cross-chain messaging and interoperability protocol connecting 45+ blockchain networks. It provides REST APIs for querying VAA (Verifiable Action Approval) status, native and wrapped token transfers, cross-chain operations, and Guardian Network data via the Wormholescan API. Developers can build multichain applications with the TypeScript SDK, CLI tooling, and the Connect bridging widget.

Wormhole publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Guardian API, Wormholescan API, and 5 more. Tagged areas include Cross-Chain, Blockchain, Interoperability, DeFi, and Token Transfers.

The Wormhole catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Wormhole’s developer surface includes developer portal, GitHub presence, engineering blog, status page, and 12 more developer resources.

Kin Score

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-25 · rubric v0.23.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/wormhole: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
