About Harmony

Harmony is your open platform for assets, collectibles, identity, governance. We are an open and fast blockchain.

Our mainnet runs Ethereum applications with 2-second transaction finality and 1000 times lower fees. Harmony’s secure bridges offer cross-chain asset transfers with Ethereum, Binance and other chains.

Build on Harmony, run on all chains. Be the ONE to bridge to all blockchains.

ONE is the native token on Harmony used for staking, network fees and on-chain governance. Harmony also supports HRC20 tokens, and HRC721/HRC1155 non-fungible tokens.

Harmony is fully Ethereum compatible. Developers can enjoy faster Ethereum Virtual Machine execution and use all standard Web3 tooling while users can use Metamask to access applications.

​

Adding Harmony to Metamask

Developers and users can also benefit from Harmony's instant transaction finality in 2 seconds and 100x lower fees than Ethereum.

Looking Ahead

1. 1BTC Bridge: we are working on wrapping BTC as cross-chain collaterals, that is capital efficient and fully trustless as on-chain and open-source contracts. This will give BTC holders access to a variety of decentralized finance products on Harmony.

2. $1M Hackathon: we are hosting a global hackathon with our partners Gitcoin and Dorahacks which will focus on bridging developers from traditional finance to DeFi. Our themes are “Cross Chains with Trustless Bridges”, “Social Wallet with Keyless Security”, and “Cross Border with Fintech Integrations”.

3. 1Wallet: we are building a crypto wallet for the next billion new crypto users. The 1Wallet will use on-chain security with a one-time-password authenticator and have social recovery. Users will no longer need to have hardware, seed phrases, or private keys.
