Hyperlane is a protocol built to enable permissionless cross-chain communication, allowing developers to send messages and data between different blockchains. Its modular design makes it adaptable, letting applications define their own security models for interoperability rather than being forced into one shared system. This flexibility is aimed at solving one of the most pressing challenges in crypto: creating seamless interactions between isolated blockchain networks.
By focusing on interoperability, Hyperlane empowers dApps to expand beyond a single chain and operate in a multi-chain environment. Developers can use Hyperlane’s messaging infrastructure to build cross-chain DeFi applications, NFT marketplaces, or Web3 services that leverage assets and users across various ecosystems. This makes Hyperlane a critical piece of infrastructure for the broader Web3 vision of a connected, chain-agnostic internet of value.
