One Click. Full Send. Introducing Routes from Eco: Easy-to-integrate stablecoin liquidity between any chain, any time. The first third-party Route for the protocol will be connected by Hyperlane, called the Hyperlane Route.

Routes enable any onchain action to be a simple, one-click stablesend. With Eco, apps can easily accept anyone’s preferred stablecoin, regardless of the network. Today, Routes is live in beta across Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Mantle.

If interested in integrating the Hyperlane Route, contact Eco for access to the beta: eco.com

Bringing The One-Click Experience Onchain

The current onchain experience is fragmented across thousands of applications on different chains. Users must juggle many wallets, bridge assets, and manage various gas fees just to use multiple apps. Meanwhile, developers struggle to make their applications accessible while maintaining a smooth user experience.

Contrast this to the simplicity of online shopping, where purchases can be made instantly from anywhere.

The vision: make using blockchain applications as easy as shopping online — one click to access any app on any chain. Meet Eco.

Introducing Eco Routes

Routes allow any Ethereum app or appchain access to flexible cross-chain stablecoin liquidity, using an intent-based framework that adapts to each app’s specific needs.

For developers, Routes offers complete control over their liquidity management — whether optimizing for speed, cost, or security. For users, it eliminates the complexity of choosing stablecoins or chains.

Key Benefits:

• Simplified Fees: Single transaction fee in stablecoins across rollups
• Flexible & Seamless: Support for deposits from Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Mantle (and more launching soon)
• Capital Efficient: Direct settlement eliminates volatility and slippage risks
• Expansion: Permissionless integration for any chain across any VM

Routes will initially support liquidity from Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Mantle, with support for new chains expected to roll out in the coming weeks after launch.

How Do Routes Work?

Routes are powered by “intents,” a process where users request transfers and “fillers” help complete them for a small fee. On beta launch, Routes features the Native and Hyperlane Routes.

The Native Route allows cross-chain transfers to be executed without adding any trust assumptions. While it is designed to maximize security, it faces two key challenges: high costs and long settlement times.

This is where Hyperlane comes in.

Here’s how it works:

1. You make an intent request from your origin chain.
2. A filler spots your request and provides the funds you need.
3. The filler confirms the transfer using either the Native Route or Hyperlane Route.
4. The filler receives their fee for helping.

Hyperlane Routes

Powered by Hyperlane’s messaging protocol, Hyperlane Routes offers a faster and cheaper way to transfer funds. Instead of relying on storage proofs, it quickly confirms transactions through a proof contract. Fillers have two options: they can either settle transactions directly with users, or join a batch settlement that reduces costs by spreading them across multiple fillers.

This efficient design means fillers can move their capital more quickly and effectively through Routes.

Building Intents on Hyperlane

As an open interoperability framework, Hyperlane is designed to be flexible to any case which requires communication across different chains.

• Permissionless: Anyone can deploy Hyperlane on any chain. Eco was able to configure their Hyperlane Route on their own terms.
• Cross-VM Adaptability: With Hyperlane deployments live across 5 different VMs, teams building on Hyperlane can easily connect their chain or app beyond their existing ecosystem. When Eco decides to expand beyond Ethereum, they can easily do so with Hyperlane.
• Modular: Hyperlane does not enshrine anything on developers’ behalf: teams like Eco can easily integrate their own components into their Hyperlane implementation.
• Future-Proof: Developers building on Hyperlane don’t face vendor lock-in and can swap out existing components for new ones as needed. For instance, while the current setup uses Hyperlane’s default Relayer, Eco plans to add support for allowing fillers to choose and run their own relayer moving forward.

‍

What’s Next?

This is just the beginning of intents on Hyperlane.

Eco Routes are now live in beta across Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and Mantle. Users on these chains can connect to any onchain app with a one-click stablesend. Eco plans to add support for more rollups in the coming weeks and eventually expand beyond the Ethereum ecosystem.

Expansion.

More about Hyperlane

Hyperlane is the open interoperability framework. It empowers developers to connect anywhere onchain and build applications that can easily and securely communicate between multiple blockchains. Importantly, Hyperlane is fully open-source and always permissionless to build with.
