The Hemi is a modular Layer-2 blockchain protocol designed to integrate the strengths of Bitcoin and Ethereum, providing enhanced scalability, security, and interoperability. It was co-founded by Jeff Garzik, an early Bitcoin core developer, and Max Sanchez, a blockchain security pioneer. The network aims to unify these two major ecosystems into a "supernetwork," enabling innovative decentralized applications (dApps) and fostering seamless cross-chain interactions.
