# Multichain

## Overview

$HYB is the native token of the Hybrid ecosystem. It is designed to be multichain from the ground up, ensuring that developers, Integrity Node operators, and users have maximum flexibility and deep liquidity across different blockchain networks.

### Supported Chains

$HYB is launching on multiple networks:

* **Base:**\
  The primary liquidity layer for onchain trading, DEX pools, and DeFi integrations. Base offers low fees, high throughput, and deep DeFi composability — making it ideal for broad community trading and staking.
* **BNB Smart Chain:**\
  An additional liquidity and user acquisition layer, leveraging BNB’s massive retail ecosystem. This ensures easy access for millions of users already active on BSC.
* **Arbitrum:**\
  The key product execution layer. This is where Hybrid’s Integrity Nodes operate, where AI agents process and validate data, and where decentralized workloads are anchored and verified.
* **Solana (exploratory):**\
  We are actively exploring bridging to Solana to unlock even more composable agent ecosystems and tap into Solana’s growing DeFi + NFT communities.

### Why Multichain?

This strategy ensures:

✅ **Broad Accessibility:** Users on different networks can hold and use $HYB without friction.\
✅ **Optimized Transaction Environments:** Trading on Base, onboarding via BNB, execution on Arbitrum — each chain is selected for its strengths.\
✅ **Deep Liquidity:** By launching liquidity on multiple chains, we align Hybrid’s incentives with major crypto ecosystems from day one.

### How to Bridge $HYB

$HYB uses **Axelar** for secure cross-chain bridging. This allows you to move your $HYB between Base, BNB Smart Chain, and Arbitrum seamlessly.

To bridge, use Squid Router:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.buildonhybrid.com/multichain.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
