The protocol was suspended back on April 13 following a security incident. During the downtime, the team partnered with SRLabs and other institutions for a joint audit, and paid out over $150,000 in bug bounties to security researchers.

This reboot also introduces the new Hyper Fungible Token (HFT) standard, letting each cross-chain asset function as an independent application layer structure. Issuers have full control over cross-chain behavior rules, such as pause mechanisms and rate-limiting strategies. Hyperbridge also lau
