-(1) **Transceiver**: This contract is responsible for sending NTT transfers forwarded through the `NttManager` on the source chain and delivered to a corresponding peer `NttManager` on the recipient chain. Transceivers should follow the `ITransceiver` interface. Transceivers can be defined independently of Wormhole core and can be modified to support any verification backend.

+# NTT Manager
+
+## Overview
+
+The NttManager contract is responsible for managing the token and the Transceivers. It also handles the rate-limiting and the message attestation logic. Note that each `NttManager` corresponds to a single token. However, a single `NttManager` can can control multiple transceivers.
+
+## Message Specification
+
+NttManagers do not directly publish messages. These will be wrapped in a [TransceiverMessage](./Transceiver.md#transceivermessage).
+
+```go
+[32]byte id          // a unique message identifier
+[32]byte sender      // original message sender address
+uint16   payload_len // length of the payload
+[]byte   payload
+```
+
+### Payloads
+
+#### NativeTokenTransfer
+
+```go
+[4]byte  prefix = 0x994E5454 // 0x99'N''T''T'
+uint8    decimals            // number of decimals for the amount
+uint64   amount              // amount being transferred

+# Transceiver
+
+## Overview
+
+The Transceiver is intended to offer a protocol-agnostic interface for sending and receiving cross-chain messages. For Native Token Transfers, this entails initiating attestation generation on the source chain, verifying the resulting attestation on the destination chain, and delivering the message to the associated `NttManager`.
+
+In the provided implementations ([EVM](/evm/src/Transceiver/Transceiver.sol)/[SVM](/solana/programs/example-native-token-transfers/src/transceivers/wormhole/)), Transcievers are intended to have a many-to-one or one-to-one relationship with Managers.
+
+## Message Specification
+
+### TransceiverMessage
+
+NttManager message emitted by a Transceiver implementation. Each message includes a Transceiver-specified 4-byte prefix. This is a constant value set by messaging provider that idenfies the payload as a transceiver-emitted payload.
+
+```go
+[4]byte  prefix
+[32]byte source_ntt_manager_address
+[32]byte recipient_ntt_manager_address
+uint16   ntt_manager_payload_length
+[]byte   ntt_manager_payload
+uint16   transceiver_payload_length
+[]byte   transceiver_payload
+```
+
+### Wormhole Transceiver
+
+#### TransceiverMessage
+
+```go
+prefix = 0x9945FF10 // 0x99'E''W''H'
+```
+
+#### Initialize Transceiver
+
+```go
+[4]byte  prefix = 0x9c23bd3b // bytes4(keccak256("WormholeTransceiverInit"))
+[32]byte ntt_manager_address // address of the associated manager
+uint8    ntt_manager_mode    // the locking/burning mode of the associated manager
+[32]byte token_address       // address of the associated manager's token
+uint8    token_decimals      // the number of decimals for that token
+```
+
+Mode is an enum.
+
+```
+Locking = 0
+Burning = 1
+```
+
+#### Transceiver (Peer) Registration
+
+```go
+[4]byte  prefix = 0x18fc67c2 // bytes4(keccak256("WormholePeerRegistration"))
+uint16   peer_chain_id       // Wormhole Chain ID of the foreign peer transceiver
+[32]byte peer_address        // the address of the foreign peer transceiver
+```
