Oakland, USA, May 14th, 2025, Chainwire
Hashlock, a leader in Web3 security and smart contract auditing, is proud to announce the successful audit of the VIA Network and Proto-USD, a USDC transfer protocol on Avalanche built by VIA Labs.
VIA Labs Connects Blockchains and Eliminates Fragmentation
VIA Labs is a cross‑chain interoperability protocol that links more than 130 blockchains, letting dApps, developers, and everyday users move tokens, NFTs, and arbitrary data across Web3 as easily as sending a single transaction. In today’s landscape—where every chain has its own liquidity pools, APIs, and UX quirks—this true multi‑hop routing removes unnecessary complexity: capital stuck on one network can flow to another, builders skip the headache of stitching together several bridges, and end‑users interact through one consistent interface instead of a maze of wallet pop‑ups and network toggles.
The stack goes beyond raw connectivity. Proto‑USD makes Avalanche Layer‑1s “USDC‑native,” routing value across subnets without wrapped assets or outside bridges, while the same framework can trigger on‑chain events from Web2 APIs or sync state between EVM and non‑EVM chains. Together, VIA Labs and Proto‑USD form a business‑ready foundation that cuts time‑to‑market for dApp teams and opens clear monetization paths for investors by unifying Web2 and Web3 liquidity at scale.
