Web Summit 2024: Hyperchains Break Down Blockchain Barriers

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.”

PlatON Announced as Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026

Hong Kong, 10th February 2026, The Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026 just got another major sponsor on board. PlatON is coming in as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor, and honestly, it’s a pretty good fit given what they’re trying to accomplish in the financial infrastructure space.
So what exactly is PlatON? It’s an open financial infrastructure platform that the LatticeX Foundation put together. The really cool part is this thing called TOPOS that sits on top of it – basically, it’s designed to help banks and payment companies actually make sense of blockchain technology and use it for real-world payments and clearing. We’ve all heard the talk about blockchain revolutionizing finance, but PlatON is actually trying to make that happen by building something traditional financial institutions can actually work with.
They’ve got the technical chops for it too – we’re talking high-frequency transaction processing, quick settlements, smart contracts that can handle multiple types of assets. This isn’t some experimental project; it’s built to handle serious stuff like cross-border payments, institutional settlements, and managing digital assets in a way that keeps regulators happy. If you want to dive deeper into what they’re doing, head over to https://platon.network.
Now, the festival itself has become a pretty big deal since it kicked off back in April 2023. Wanxiang Blockchain Labs and HashKey Group run it together, with W3ME handling the organization, and it’s turned into the go-to event for anyone serious about Web3 in Asia. It’s where people actually show up to talk about what’s working, what’s not, and where all of this is heading.
Mark your calendars for April 20-23 if you’re planning to go – it’ll be at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The past three years have been pretty wild: 350+ exhibitors, over 1,200 speakers, 100,000 people coming through the doors, and more than 400 side events happening around the main conference. That’s a lot of activity packed into a few days.
This year they’re lining up around 300 speakers to cover pretty much every corner of Web3 and crypto. But here’s what’s really interesting – they’ve already got 500+ executives and decision-makers from traditional finance and regular businesses signed up. That’s not your typical crypto crowd. It means you’ve got old-school finance people genuinely trying to understand this space, sitting down with crypto natives, and actually having productive conversations. Those are the kinds of interactions that lead to real progress.
The fact that it’s in Hong Kong matters more than you might think. The city has always been this weird and wonderful mix of East and West, traditional finance and cutting-edge tech. It’s got one foot in Mainland China’s massive market and the other in the global financial system. That positioning means the festival can pull in people and ideas from everywhere, giving you access to perspectives and opportunities that just don’t exist at Western crypto conferences or purely Asian tech events.
Whether you’re already neck-deep in DeFi or you’re just trying to figure out what all the fuss is about, this has become the event that actually matters in the Asian crypto calendar.
