Morphology

interchain = chain (semi-transparent) = inter + chain

The form clearly combines inter- and chain, but the technical blockchain sense is specialized and not fully predictable for a learner.

Etymology

Interchain is formed from inter- 'between' and chain, and it names a system or protocol that connects different blockchains so they can move data or assets between them.
