“Hemi: Scaling Bitcoin Without Sacrificing Its Soul”
> Bitcoin is secure, sovereign, and slow.
> Hemi keeps the first two — and fixes the third.
>
> By embedding Bitcoin logic inside an EVM, Hemi enables smart contracts to interact with Bitcoin directly, unlocking BTC-native lending, staking, and programmable vaults.
>
> No need to wrap BTC or rely on centralized bridges.
>
> Hemi’s architecture includes:
> - hVM: lets Ethereum contracts “understand” Bitcoin
> - PoP consensus: anchors rollup state to Bitcoin blocks
> - Modular tunneling: enables BTC flow without synthetic assets
>
> The $HEMI token coordinates this infrastructure — securing validators, enabling governance, and powering execution.
>
> Hemi doesn’t just scale Bitcoin. It preserves its soul while making it programmable.
