Message Service dApp (Simple Bridge) for Ethereum Equivalent Chains

Design Diagram

Introduction

This repository contains a simple Message Service dApp that serves as a bridge between Ethereum equivalent chains. The dApp allows you to create and store messages on a source chain and verify their inclusion on a destination chain using Merkle proofs. This forms the fundamental basis of a bridge application.

Working Behavior

  • The dApp deploys the same smart contract on both the source chain and the destination chain.
  • Both contracts have the ability to create and store messages at specific storage slots with the value 0x1.
  • You can use eth_getProof RPC calls to obtain the Merkle proof of inclusion for a specific message on the source chain.
  • This proof can then be presented to the destination chain's smart contract to verify that a specific message has been sent.

Setup

Before setting up the project, ensure you have Foundry installed.

Follow these steps to set up the project:

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone git@github.com:adaki2004/MessageService.git
    cd MessageService
    
  2. Install project dependencies:

    forge install
    
  3. If you want to test a specific message (located in the test/ folder), replace the message string and Ethereum address. Then run the tests using Foundry:

    forge test -vv
    
  4. Deploy (and verify) the smart contracts on both chains using Foundry. Here's an example deployment script (for Sepolia):

    forge create --rpc-url 'https://eth-sepolia.g.alchemy.com/v2/ALCHEMY_API_KEY' --private-key 'YOUR_DEPLOYER_WALLET_PRIV_KEY' --etherscan-api-key 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY' --verify 'src/MessageService.sol:MessageService'

Make sure to replace 'https://eth-sepolia.g.alchemy.com/v2/ALCHEMY_API_KEY', 'YOUR_DEPLOYER_WALLET_PRIV_KEY', and 'YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY' with the appropriate values.

  1. Set the message slot value to 0x1 by calling the sendMessage function on the source chain.

  2. Call the RPC eth_getProof with the contract address and storage slot using the script/eth_getProof.py script. (The raw proof bytes are not RLP encoded so make sure you encode it! For example, you can use: https://toolkit.abdk.consulting/ethereum#key-to-address,rlp )

  3. Verify on the destination chain's smart contract using the verifySourceChainMessage function, providing the proof that the specific message has been sent.

Pre-deployed address (Goerli): 0xBdE80AC952B3c2B01786992B9C99777a66e443a9

Pre-deployed address (Sepolia): 0xBdE80AC952B3c2B01786992B9C99777a66e443a9
