Hyperlane (HYPER)

Hyperlane is an open-source, permissionless framework for blockchain interoperability. Today, it connects over 170 blockchains and supports 5+ virtual machines, powering hundreds of interchain applications on a daily basis—from asset bridges and cross-chain governance to emerging DeFi use cases. But beyond its current role as an interchain messaging protocol, we see Hyperlane evolving into a global network for transferring value—a decentralized infrastructure layer that would serve as the technical backbone of a modern digital payment network.
