Hyperlane is an open interoperability framework, providing tools for developers to connect and build cross-chain applications that communicate securely across blockchains. It operates without a token or governance process. In 2022, Hyperlane raised $18.5 million in seed funding led by Variant, with support from investors like Galaxy Digital and Circle.
Open Source Observer provides free analytics to assess the impact of open source software contributions on ecosystem health, focusing on the Superchain. It aims to demonstrate the value of these contributions by offering visibility and verifiable proof. Operating without formal governance or a native token, the project has garnered support through grants, including a Builders Grant from Optimism and recognition at an Optimism hackathon. Following its spinout from Protocol Labs in 2023, the team established Kariba Labs to continue development independently.
