Understanding Holograph’s Omnichain Protocol
Ecosystem Stack
Holograph acts as the tokenization layer for the omnichain ecosystem, promoting seamless interoperability of liquidity across different blockchain infrastructures.
Protocol Stack
The protocol consists of ten primary elements, forming the backbone that enables the entire system’s functionality. These elements support a robust infrastructure for token creation, deployment, and management across multiple chains.
Omnichain Capabilities
Holograph allows the creation of both standard and custom tokens that can operate across different blockchains. It supports:
- Creating Standard Tokens: Tokens are burned on the source chain and reminted on the destination chain, maintaining a unified contract address.
- Creating Custom Tokens: Allows the deployment of unique token models across various execution environments.
- Modifying Existing Tokens: Converts existing tokens into omnichain tokens by locking them on the source chain and minting corresponding tokens on the destination chain.
Transfer Token Architecture

The Holographic Transfer Process (HTP) includes:
- Chain A: Initiating a bridge-out request, burning tokens, and sending a bridge-out message.
- Messaging: Utilizing LayerZero’s Decentralized Verifier Network (DVN) to validate and forward messages across chains.
- Chain B: Receiving the validated message, executing bridge jobs, and minting tokens on the destination chain.
This process ensures that liquidity is unified, slippage is eliminated, and fungibility is preserved across different blockchain environments.
Holograph’s innovative approach to omnichain tokenization marks a significant advancement in the blockchain sector, promising a more interconnected and efficient ecosystem for asset issuers and users alike.
