HWR 2.0

Hyperlane Warp Routes 2.0 are a type of Hyperlane Warp Route (HWR) that allows liquidity to be sourced from multiple collateral chains with native rebalancing for supported configurations.

Overview

In a single-collateral HWR, tokens are locked on one source chain.

Example:

• Lock 100 USDC on Ethereum
• Mint 100 USDC on NewChain

Hyperlane Warp Routes 2.0, on the other hand, allows users to bridge from multiple collateral chains.

Example:

• Lock 50 USDC on Base
• Lock 50 USDC on Arbitrum
• Mint 100 USDC on NewChain

This setup allows a destination chain to receive assets from multiple sources, making it easier for users to onboard liquidity without depending on a single origin.

Rebalancing

If more funds flow in one direction, one of the chains in the route can run out of collateral, creating imbalanced flow that prevents withdrawals. To maintain a smooth user experience, collateral must be balanced across chains.

HWR 2.0 supports three rebalancing options depending on the token and chain:

Method	Tokens	How
USDC Rebalancing	USDC	Automatic, via CCTP on supported chains
Inventory Rebalancing	USDT, ETH	Automatic, via a cross-chain liquidity aggregator on EVM-compatible chains
Manual Rebalancing	Any	LPs manually move collateral using the CLI or UI

Supported Tokens and Protocols

Token	Method	Chains
USDC	USDC Rebalancing	Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Ethereum, HyperEVM, Ink, Linea, OP Mainnet, Plume, Polygon PoS, Sei, Sonic, Unichain, World Chain. Additional chains supported by Circle CCTP v1/v2 will roll out incrementally.
USDT	Inventory Rebalancing	EVM-compatible chains. Additional chains planned.
ETH	Inventory Rebalancing	EVM-compatible chains. Additional chains planned.
