You can now migrate HYDRA on a 1:1 basis from Legacy Hydra to HydraGon using the Hydra Bridge

Welcome to Hydra Chain

Hydra Chain is a High-Performance & Permissionless EVM Layer 1 Blockchain Network that offers Instant Finality, sub-second block times, adaptive inflation and a groundbreaking decentralization mechanism with an account-level horizontal scalability system that doesn't compromise on security.

Fully compatible with Ethereum tooling, Hydra enables seamless dApp deployment, while its low transaction costs (as low as $0.000021) render L2 solutions unnecessary. Designed for developers, users, and enterprises alike, Hydra opens up possibilities in RWA, Gaming, DeFi, and real-time applications.

HYDRA, the native coin in the Hydra Ecosystem is used to pay for gas fees, validation, staking and governance with The Hydra DAO

Summary of Features:

Instant Finality: Transactions are locked and irreversible in less than 1 second, eliminating delays associated with traditional chains, eliminating any friction for users

Exponentiating Validator Weights: A unique formula prevents centralization by balancing voting power, fostering a highly decentralized ecosystem

Massive Scalability: Account-level sharding allows near-infinite TPS by horizontally scaling network capacity across independent shards

Dynamic Economic Model: Adaptive APRs and staking bonuses reward loyalty while ensuring long-term ecosystem stability

πŸ“ˆ Up to 4000 TPS Elastic Capacity per shard

πŸ”₯ 100% Burn of all Transaction Fees (50% direct burn and 50% Leveraged Burn)

We want to provide our respectful credits to the Polygon communities and their developers as our project would not be possible if it hadn't been for their open-source work.
