# Supported networks If a community wants to support a new chain, developers can write a "connector" that connects them to the YAR protocol. Once the code is submitted, it's tested and reviewed by the main development team. If accepted, it's added to the main protocol that all nodes work with - the main binary. Whenever nodes are taken off the network, they update their software. When 55% of nodes use a new port and observe a new network, it's added to the available sources. To delist, nodes remove the connector from a supported list. When 55% no longer observe/listen to the Connector, it's removed. The process starts and the assets of this chain are returned to their owners. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.yarchain.org/whitepaper/project-mechanics/supported-networks.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
