HashKey Group Prepares To Launch Ethereum Layer 2 Network, HashKey Chain

Digital asset financial services group based in Hong Kong, HashKey Group, revealed plans to release its Ethereum Layer 2 network, HashKey Chain (HSK). This initiative, first made public during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival earlier today, plans to bolster the growth of the HashKey Web3 ecosystem.

HashKey Chain utilizes zero-knowledge-proof technology to provide users with cost-effective and developer-friendly on-chain solutions. Incentives for ecosystem contributors will be facilitated via the HashKey platform’s currency, HSK.

The network is scheduled to launch the testnet by the end of this year, with the mainnet anticipated in 2025.

The network receives services from HashKey Cloud, a Web3 infrastructure provider under HashKey Group which has been offering its services for more than 80 blockchains for more than six years.

Furthermore, the HashKey Chain ecosystem comprises various partners that enhance different aspects of the network. Among its partners are AltLayer, a decentralized protocol facilitating the launch of native and restaked rollups, SWT, an application development partner, Polygon, a blockchain partner, SlowMist Technology, a security partner, and community partners such as HKU School of Economics and Management and the Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE).

The new network will also bring together resources from various entities, including incubators Future3 Campus, All Things Island, HashKey Capital, entrepreneurial camps, and VCs. The goal is to offer comprehensive incentive backing to co-builders, encompassing aspects such as technology development, strategy of the product, resource networking, and financing. This support will be provided through initiatives like Hackathon and other activities.
