description Abstract Metaverse is a new ecology that integrates the digital world with the physical world, generates a mirror image of the real world based on digital twin technology, and guarantees the fairness of the virtual world through the trusted mechanism of blockchain. Cross‐chain communication technology is the key to realizing data circulation and collaborative processing between blockchains, which provides the communication foundation for the massive connection of blockchains in the metaverse. The current cross‐chain communication mode is dominated by direct‐connect routing, leading to network congestion and high propagation delay once the direct‐connect link fails and cannot be recovered quickly. To optimize direct‐connect routing, this paper proposed a cross‐chain routing optimization strategy based on RON (Resilient Overlay Network), that is, Cross‐Chain_RON, which firstly applies RON to reconstruct the direct‐connect routing model, and then selects the optimal link through the shortest‐path algorithm and policy routing, and combines with the RON performance database to improve the data transmission efficiency. Finally, the two communication modes were simulated by simulation tools. The experiments show that Cross‐Chain_RON outperforms the direct‐connect routing in terms of latency, rate of successful data transmission, and throughput in poor network environments, but at the expense of a certain amount of system overhead.
