inEVM Spotlight: Hyperlane

In Web3 finance, scalability and efficiency are paramount. Central to this evolution is the emergence of multi-VM (Virtual Machine) environments, allowing blockchain platforms to support a variety of smart contract languages ​​and execution environments.

inEVM plays an important role in this paradigm shift and is Injective's latest milestone. inEVM marks significant progress in interoperability between leading blockchain networks and highlights Injective's commitment to developing an integrated Web3 network.

A number of key infrastructure platforms played a critical role in the creation of inEVM. Among them, Hyperlane played a crucial role in providing seamless cross-chain interoperability and token bridging by connecting Injective and inEVM with the inEVM bridge.

In this article we will take a closer look at what Hyperlane is and how it speeds up inEVM.

What is Hyperlane?

Hyperlane is a permissionless interoperability layer built for a modular blockchain stack. It provides a seamless connection between disparate blockchain environments. With Hyperlane, developers can implement interoperability and bridges into any layer 1 blockchain, rollup, or appchain in any virtual machine. This universal interoperability allows Hyperlane-equipped chains to seamlessly interoperate with each other, laying the foundation for a truly interconnected blockchain ecosystem.

Part of Hyperlane's mission is to empower cross-chain applications—applications that span multiple blockchains and abstract users from the complexities of multi-chain interactions.

How does Permissionless Compatibility scale Injective?

Thanks to the integration of Hyperlane, Injective gains a unique scaling ability - Permissionless Interoperability. Anyone can deploy Hyperlane on any chain or rollup, adapting to any VM. In turn, this allows Injective to expand to any chain without needing the core Hyperlane team in any capacity.
