Company profile
researched Aug 2026Holograph is a blockchain protocol for creating tokens that exist across multiple EVM-compatible networks with identical contract addresses. Its SDK lets developers create, deploy, mint and bridge fungible and non-fungible "omnichain" tokens, and the protocol handles cross-chain movement by burning a token on the source chain, passing a message to the destination chain, and re-minting it there at the same contract address, so total supply and fungibility are preserved and liquidity is not fragmented across ecosystems.
The current protocol monorepo describes an omnichain ERC-20 system built on Doppler's token factory with LayerZero V2 for cross-chain messaging, using CREATE2 deployment for deterministic addresses. Base is the primary chain for token creation and Ethereum handles fee processing and staking, with Unichain also supported; protocol fees are bridged and split between burning and rewards paid to stakers of the HLG token via an auto-compounding StakingRewards contract.
Alongside the protocol, Holograph operates a browser-based trading terminal at holograph.xyz aimed at traders of creator coins. The terminal aggregates prices across markets, routes orders across decentralized exchanges to reduce slippage, and provides real-time market data and portfolio tracking after a wallet connection.
Business model
Holograph operates protocol infrastructure rather than a licensed software product. The protocol collects fees from token activity, bridges them cross-chain via LayerZero V2, and distributes them under a configurable split between token burns and rewards for HLG stakers.
Protocol fees generated by token activity are routed cross-chain and allocated between burning and staker rewards under configurable tokenomics.
Traction
Over 10 million omnichain tokens minted by approximately 1.5 million unique wallets, and more than two million cross-chain transactions completed using LayerZero messaging, as reported in April 2024 coverage. Mainnet launched the year prior to that coverage.
Latest developments
The protocol monorepo, covering the Doppler-based omnichain ERC-20 factory, FeeRouter and StakingRewards contracts, was updated as of November 2025, while the earlier V2 repository was archived in May 2025. Product documentation now centers on the Holograph trading terminal for creator coins.

Market position
Holograph has been described in press coverage as one of the more widely used protocols for cross-chain asset production and distribution, with adoption concentrated in NFT and blockchain-gaming use cases.
Unlike wrapped-asset bridging approaches, Holograph tokens keep the same contract address on every chain and retain fungibility, allowing cross-chain data indexing, while the burn-and-mint transfer mechanism moves liquidity without changing total token supply.
Technology
Smart contracts written in Solidity, deployed with CREATE2 to give tokens identical addresses across chains. Core contracts include HolographFactory (a Doppler-authorized token factory), FeeRouter for cross-chain fee collection and distribution, StakingRewards for auto-compounding HLG staking, and HolographDeployer. The stack depends on Foundry, LayerZero V2 messaging with DVN consensus, Doppler Airlock token launches, OpenZeppelin libraries and Uniswap V3 integration. A TypeScript SDK (@holographxyz/sdk) exposes contract deployment, minting and bridging, and a CLI provides a streaming indexer and network monitor for cross-chain event processing. Cross-chain transfers use a burn-and-remint mechanism that preserves supply and contract address.
Go-to-market
Developer-facing distribution through open-source repositories, an npm-published SDK, documentation and tutorials, plus a direct-to-user web terminal accessible from desktop and mobile browsers.
Asset issuers and developers deploying tokens across multiple chains, blockchain game developers seeking multi-chain asset distribution, and, for the terminal product, onchain traders of creator coins.
History
Holograph launched its mainnet in 2023 and expanded protocol support across Ethereum, Polygon, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Base, Mantle, Zora and Linea. In April 2024 it announced an $11 million strategic financing that brought total funding above $11 million and was directed toward omnichain gaming. The original protocol repository was upgraded to V2 and later archived in favor of a new protocol monorepo built on Doppler and LayerZero V2, and the company subsequently introduced a creator-coin trading terminal.

launches, deals, and filingsThe original protocol repository, upgraded to V2, was archived and is no longer updated, with development moved to the holograph-protocol monorepo.
Holograph documentation describes an onchain trading terminal that aggregates creator coin prices across markets, routes orders across decentralized exchanges and provides portfolio tracking.
Holograph closed an $11 million strategic funding round co-led by Andrew Kang's Mechanism Capital and Jordi Alexander's Selini Capital, with participation from Northrock Capital, Arca, Courtside Ventures and Hartmann Capital. Proceeds were earmarked for advancing omnichain gaming. Coverage also reported a $3M component of the financing led by Mechanism Capital and Selini Capital, bringing total funding to over $11 million.
