We're excited to announce that Universal Digital Payments Network , the most advanced interoperable global payments network for regulated digital currencies, has integrated the Hedera network to ease the development of programmable payment applications leveraging #stablecoins and #CBDCs . The Universal Digital Payments Network (UDPN) is a messaging backbone focused on interoperability between the fast-growing number of regulated stablecoins and CBDCs to enable seamless connectivity between any business IT system and regulated digital currencies. As part of this PoC, two additional Transaction Nodes were integrated into the UDPN: one supporting stablecoins issued with the Stablecoin Studio on Hedera, connecting directly to the network via Hedera #SDK , and the other supporting EMTECH CBDCs via their Digital Cash platform. Testing the UDPN core services, including creating a decentralized identity (DID), mapping this #DID to a Hedera account, and initiating transfers and cross-chain swaps, #Hedera was found to have unmatched scalability for programmable payments 👇 https://lnkd.in/eWqGafGC The successful execution of this PoC laid the ground for The HBAR Foundation to explore further collaboration opportunities with the UDPN, such as supporting Hedera digital currencies when the network launches and leveraging Hedera technologies to validate UDPN transactions. In preparation for its full deployment, UDPN participants will continue exploring synergies with the #HBAR Foundation, such as integrating Hedera technologies with the UDPN All-in-One Digital Currency Sandbox and other UDPN solutions 👇 https://lnkd.in/er8ifp8B

We're excited to announce that Zoniqx , a global leader in Real-World Asset ( #RWA ) tokenization, has announced its integration with the Hedera network. By integrating #Hedera with TPaaS, a comprehensive asset #tokenization platform, Zoniqx unlocks value from traditionally illiquid assets by enabling seamless creation, issuance, and management of compliant #security #tokens worldwide. Aligned with our own accessibility goals for tokenization, Zoniqx offers seamless cross-chain interoperability, across both #EVM and non-EVM chains, which allows for tokenized assets to be traded across multiple exchanges and platforms. Alongside this Zoniqx is driving the adoption of SecureConnect, a proprietary connector designed to bridge the gap between token issuers and investors, to enhance liquidity in the tokenized asset market.

We’re excited to announce that Brale , the regulated #stablecoin issuer, has integrated with the Hedera network. Enterprises, f#intechs, and institutions can now leverage Brale’s regulated issuance stack to issue and manage application-specific stablecoins on Hedera, with integrated on and #offramps , treasury management, and reserves transparency. Brale-issued stablecoins will support payments, liquidity on-ramps, and interoperability between 10+ blockchains and Hedera, with projects retaining revenue and control of stablecoins in their applications.

We’re excited to announce that we have joined the Chainlink Scale program and are bringing the industry-leading oracle solution to Hedera , starting with Chainlink Data Feeds and CCIP. As a first step in our collaboration, Chainlink Data Feeds are now live on #Hedera testnet. Over the coming months, we anticipate this will move to mainnet, followed by our integration of the Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). For both startups and institutions building in the Hedera #DeFi economy, Chainlink Data Feeds will provide developers with industry-standard services, enabling them to create or integrate #dapps with high-quality data, trusted by battle-tested #node operators. With many institutions already trusting Chainlink Data Feeds, we anticipate this integration will enable Hedera to meet the growing demand for institutional DeFi that we see across the industry. Further down the line, integrating Chainlink CCIP will enable several key features to enhance the #developer experience on Hedera. This includes: (1) Programmable Token Transfers - enabling the transferring of tokens and messages simultaneously within a single cross-chain transaction. (2) The most secure token transfer solution - consisting of audited token pool contracts that handle the complexity of burning and minting or locking and unlocking tokens across chains. (3) A unified and easy-to-integrate developer interface. You can learn more in our latest #HBAR blog ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eS7GdP7s

Institutional #DeFi requires interoperability across the #EVM 🌐 That’s why LayerZero Labs , the omnichain #interoperability protocol with over $50B+ value transferred so far, has integrated with Hedera to establish the future of this ecosystem on the network 🧵 Through LayerZero, developers can deploy Omnichain Apps (OApps) natively on #Hedera and extend to 70+ other chains, including #Solana , #Base , #Arbitrum , #Optimism , #BNB Chain, Avalanche , and #Polygon . Alongside this, integrating the Hedera network with LayerZero builds on our previous work with Copper.co , Elliptic , and the launch of the Asset Tokenization Studio on Hedera, opening the door for more EVM-based liquidity to enter the ecosystem. Immediately, the benefits of this integration include: (1) Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Interoperability - LayerZero’s OFT standard provides asset-level interoperability for ERC assets on the Hedera network, a key challenge and priority for RWA issuance and adoption. (2) DApp Connectivity - Hedera-based dapps can now directly integrate the LayerZero Hedera endpoint, providing a seamless bridge experience in-app and opening up new opportunities to introduce new users to the Hedera ecosystem. https://lnkd.in/e_2FSAPQ Lastly, the LayerZero Hedera endpoint also lays the groundwork for Hedera network integration with Stargate Finance , the fully composable liquidity transport protocol built on top of LayerZero. Over the coming weeks, we’ll present a proposal to the Stargate DAO to help us move towards enabling this integration. You can learn more about LayerZero and Stargte in our latest #HBAR blog 👇 https://lnkd.in/efeu69H9
