AVS Spotlight: Hyperlane

Hyperlane is the first universal and permissionless interoperability layer built for with modularity in mind.

Hyperlane can be deployed for Layer 1, rollups or app-chain and allowing it to communicate with any other chain and ecosystem that has also deployed Hyperlane. Developers can also leverage their implementation of interchain accounts, interchain queries and warp routes to build interchain apps spanning multiple blockchains.

By leveraging restaking on EigenLayer, seamless cross-rollup interoperability can be secured by restaked ETH. Hyperlane AVS is currently secured by 95 operators, 92,700+ stakers and 1.61M restaked ETH.
