Hashport is an interoperability solution designed to connect the Hedera network with other major blockchain ecosystems and enable the transfer of digital assets across distributed ledgers. It functions as a public utility, facilitating bidirectional token bridging, which allows users to move assets from one network to another.
The platform supports connections between the Hedera blockchain network and other prominent blockchains such as Ethereum, Polygon, and BNB Chain. The process involves users locking their original assets on the source chain to facilitate “porting” of newly-minted, wrapped versions of the original asset to the destination chain. Upon retrieval, the ported asset version is burned on the destination network thus unlocking the original tokens on their native chain.
Hashport utilizes a consortium of independent and reputable validators verify and authorize transactions in order to ensure end-to-end security. These validators monitor events on the connected chains to ensure the integrity of the bridging process. By enabling seamless cross-chain transfers, Hashport plays a vital role in expanding the reach of decentralized applications (dApps) and assets within the Hedera ecosystem.

The IBM Blockchain Platform was a short-term funding and technology project involving the Hedera blockchain network. While this specific project has evolved into an ongoing enterprise blockchain strategy, IBM remains intrinsically involved with the Hedera network as a member of the Hedera Governing Council.
This position provides IBM with a direct voice and vote in the governance of the Hedera public network, influencing its technical roadmap, policies, and overall strategic direction. As a council member, IBM also contributes to the network's operational integrity by running a consensus node.
This engagement with Hedera allows IBM to participate, offer insights and contribute to advancements which align with its broader interests in advancing enterprise-grade distributed ledger solutions (DLT). This involvement complements IBM's extensive work with permissioned blockchains and strengthens the partnership between Hedera and the broader technology industry while providing a holistic perspective on the evolving blockchain landscape for IBM’s global enterprise clients.
