Stargate Finance has expanded its cross-chain liquidity protocol to support 29 Hydra chains, marking significant growth in their omnichain infrastructure.​

The protocol aims to create a unified, composable liquidity layer across multiple blockchain ecosystems.​ Each Hydra chain connects through a canonical bridge, ensuring:

  • Standardized compliance across chains
  • Interoperable assets from launch
  • Seamless liquidity scaling

This expansion represents a major step toward Stargate's vision of a truly interconnected DeFi ecosystem.​
