Lisbon, Portugal, November 11, 2024 -- Hyperchains, the highly-anticipated blockchain innovation, will debut at Web Summit 2024 in Lisbon. This groundbreaking solution democratizes blockchain technology, enabling anyone—from individuals to large enterprises—to create and customize their own blockchain networks with unprecedented ease.

This advanced concept, envisioned by blockchain pioneers, has been in development over several years by the Aeternity Foundation and its ecosystem contributors. Hyperchains mark a significant advancement in blockchain evolution, allowing users to effortlessly create their own chains with no coding necessary, while leveraging the entire æternity ecosystem's powerful suite of tools including state channels, oracles, NFTs, and advanced smart contract capabilities. With unparalleled simplicity and scalability, Hyperchains empower their creators to integrate secure, decentralized solutions tailored to their specific needs, whether they're individual developers, startups, or established enterprises.

A universal blockchain solution with enterprise-grade capabilities

Hyperchains offer a unique hybrid consensus model that combines both Proof of Stake (PoS) and Proof of Work (PoW) mechanisms to provide a secure and scalable blockchain experience. By anchoring to established blockchains like Bitcoin, Hyperchains offer initiators a robust and customizable infrastructure, ideally suited for enterprise-grade applications.

The solution redefines blockchain adoption by eliminating traditional barriers of complexity and technical expertise. One of the standout features of Hyperchains is its no-code deployment, which enables anyone to seamlessly launch and customize their own blockchain networks without needing deep technical knowledge or specialized hardware.

Key benefits:

  1. Privacy and security in blockchain transactions

    Hyperchains have the capability to utilize state channels and zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs), similar to other components within the æternity ecosystem. These features allow for private off-chain transactions with auditability, addressing corporate concerns around transparency and secure interactions.

  2. Seamless system integration

    Hyperchains are designed to integrate with Web2.0 applications like SAP and Oracle Financial, using industry-standard protocols such as ISO20022. This allows for seamless blockchain adoption without the need for specialized expertise and is part of the broader æternity ecosystem’s capabilities.

  3. NFT-based identity and transactions

    Leveraging non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for secure, web3-native authentication systems or multi-signature networks, Hyperchains provide immutable, verifiable identity solutions for both individuals and organizations.

  4. Stablecoins and regulation compliance

    Hyperchains support stablecoins compliant with MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation), making them ideal for anyone concerned about cryptocurrency volatility and legal compliance in regulated environments.

  5. Enhanced scalability and efficiency

    Hyperchains offer scalable solutions powered by state channels and built on Erlang, providing low latency and high throughput at reduced costs. This makes them perfect for applications of any scale, from individual projects to enterprise-level deployments.

  6. Use of oracles and data privacy

    æternity's oracles provide signed and trusted on-chain data feeds, ensuring the integrity of critical information without unnecessary data storage on the blockchain. This is crucial for anyone handling sensitive financial data, from individuals to large organizations.

  7. Flexible blockchain solutions

    Hyperchains offer customizable blockchain options for various use cases such as supply chain management, financial transactions, and creative projects. With features like smart contracts, generalized accounts, and multi-signature authorizations, users have the flexibility to scale as needed.

Democratizing blockchain technology

"Hyperchains represent a significant milestone in blockchain adoption and accessibility," said Nikola Stojanow, Chairman of the Aeternity Foundation. “Years of development and refinement have shaped this transformative solution into a platform that works for everyone. While Hyperchains offers enterprise-grade capabilities that make it perfect for business applications, its true power lies in its simplicity and accessibility—anyone can leverage these powerful tools to build their own blockchain future.”
