Hub and Spoke

In a hub-and-spoke configuration, a central chain acts as the primary hub for managing accounting and smart contract logic. Spoke deployments send accounting messages to the hub whenever token movements occur. The hub functions as the central repository of accurate information, ensuring that the state stored on the spokes accurately reflects the state stored on the hub.

Henez Chain serves as our central hub chain, with spoke deployments operational on Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Base for our testnet deployment. We plan to extend support to additional networks for our mainnet launch.

The spoke architecture allows users to deposit and withdraw native assets across supported ecosystems without the need for token bridges. This setup led to the creation of the Omnichain Liquidity Layer—an integrated application and interface that enables users to interact seamlessly with multiple networks.
