Hop Protocol
Hop Protocol is a multi-chain token bridge focused on fast, low-cost transfers between Ethereum mainnet and major Layer 2 networks. Using bonders who front liquidity for near-instant transfers and later settle on-chain, Hop delivers significantly faster bridging than canonical bridges requiring long withdrawal periods. As HyperEVM grows alongside the broader L2 ecosystem, Hop provides a seamless corridor for users moving USDC, ETH, and other tokens from Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon into Hyperliquid. Its liquidity pool model allows LPs to earn fees by providing AMM liquidity for bridged assets, creating a self-sustaining ecosystem. Hop's architecture eliminates the trust assumptions of wrapped tokens by using a native AMM approach where the bridge asset is always redeemable 1:1 with the canonical token on the destination chain, providing strong security guarantees for users bridging significant capital into the Hyperliquid ecosystem.
