Hedera has contributed CLPR, its Cross-Ledger Protocol, to the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust as a new lab, moving the project into open development. The protocol uses state proofs to let separate ledgers verify their states directly, enabling tokens, data and messages to move across networks without bridges or wrapped assets. Hashgraph also launched a three-phase early adopter program for financial institutions, fintechs, asset issuers and liquidity providers, covering cross-border payments and in-flight foreign exchange, cross-ledger settlement, and collateral mobility. Participants will receive access to a Hashgraph-hosted testnet and integration support. CLPR was unveiled at HederaCon on September 22, and the contribution was announced on September 24.
