# 14.6 Security Considerations

The bridge mechanism is designed with strict controls to ensure asset safety.

These include:

* locking contracts that securely hold FreCx tokens
* controlled minting of WFreCx only upon verified lock events
* mandatory burn operations before token release
* transaction verification across both chains

These safeguards ensure that assets cannot be duplicated or manipulated during cross-chain transfers.

The FreCx bridging mechanism enables seamless asset movement across blockchain ecosystems while maintaining strict supply consistency and security guarantees. By leveraging the lock-and-mint / burn-and-release model and introducing WFreCx as a wrapped asset, FreCx extends its usability beyond its native network and into broader multi-chain environments.
