Hemi
About
Hemi is a modular protocol powered by Bitcoin and Ethereum, designed to unite the two largest cryptocurrency networks into a single cohesive ecosystem. The protocol integrates a full Bitcoin node directly within an Ethereum Virtual Machine execution environment, enabling smart contracts to natively observe and interact with Bitcoin network state. Security is provided through a consensus mechanism that continually anchors protocol state back to the Bitcoin blockchain. Hemi enables developers to build cross-chain decentralized applications, trust-minimized asset bridges, and Bitcoin-aware financial primitives without relying on centralized intermediaries or external oracle networks.

Operations
Products and/or services of Hemi
- Hemi Virtual Machine: An execution environment that embeds a full Bitcoin node directly into an Ethereum Virtual Machine, allowing smart contracts to access Bitcoin state, block headers, and transaction data in real time.
- Proof-of-Proof Consensus: A security consensus mechanism that regularly publishes cryptographic state commitments directly onto the Bitcoin blockchain, leveraging Bitcoin's proof-of-work energy to guarantee state finality and protect network transactions from reorgs.
- Bitcoin Kit: A software development framework providing pre-compiled contracts, libraries, and developer tools to build smart contracts that observe, query, and interact directly with Bitcoin network assets and account balances.
- Cross-Chain Tunnels: Trust-minimized bridging infrastructure enabling asset transfers and cross-chain message passing between Bitcoin, Ethereum, and secondary execution layers without reliance on centralized custodians or external multi-signature federations.
- Decentralized Finance Infrastructure: Protocol-level decentralized finance primitives enabling Bitcoin-collateralized lending markets, automated market making, liquid staking derivatives, and cross-chain asset issuance across Ethereum Virtual Machine compatible layer-two execution environments.
- Node and Staking Services: Decentralized infrastructure tools enabling network validators and node operators to participate in consensus validation, block production, state proof generation, and cross-chain state synchronization across connected protocol layers.
