Hemi
Auto-generated score, not yet verified against the scoring model. Under review — treat as indicative, not a verdict.
Summary
Hemi is a Bitcoin-Ethereum 'supernetwork' layer-2 built by Hemi Labs (founders Jeff Garzik and Max Sanchez), which raised $15 million in 2024 and launched its mainnet in March 2025. An online rumour in October 2026 listed it among chains that might be wound down. The sources reviewed show very low on-chain fees and small TVL, but no official shutdown or wind-down announcement was found. The September 2026 Genesis Drop exploit is covered separately at /hemi-genesis-drop-merklebox-exploit and is not restated here.
