San Francisco, CA, July 8th, 2024

Halliday has officially launched its commerce automation network, which aims to transform the way digital transactions are conducted across multiple blockchain ecosystems. Supported by prominent investors such as Hashed and Andreessen Horowitz and with a collaboration of over 26 partners, Halliday seeks to provide its technology to a diverse range of businesses and commerce applications.

The Halliday network tackles the current challenges of fragmented user experiences and technological shortcomings that impede blockchain-based payments. By simplifying digital commerce within various blockchain environments, Halliday aims to make blockchain technology more accessible to the broader market.

"Current blockchain commerce solutions lack user-friendly interfaces and present integration challenges for developers," commented Griffin Dunaif, CEO of Halliday. "We are building a platform to enhance commerce, enabling users to transact seamlessly across multiple chains and protocols. This facilitates mainstream adoption and boosts the economic activities within the ecosystem."

Digital commerce in blockchain often struggles with user interface complexity and difficulties in bridging Web2 and Web3 platforms. To address these issues, Halliday has developed a Proof-of-Stake protocol that automates tasks across different blockchain networks while providing a cohesive interface for transactions and digital asset management.

Ryan Kim, Co-founder and Partner at Hashed, expressed enthusiasm about Halliday’s launch. "We’re excited to support Halliday’s innovative strategy to simplify blockchain transactions and improve user experiences. Their approach has the potential to drive widespread adoption of blockchain technology in commercial applications, which aligns perfectly with our vision for the future of digital commerce."

The Halliday ecosystem is designed to be inclusive, inviting developers to join a permissionless network where they can create, bid on tasks, and receive rewards. This collaborative model aims to enhance both the accessibility and usability of blockchain in commerce.

Halliday’s network promises to simplify the process of onboarding users to new modular chains, facilitate NFT purchases across multiple chains, and support intricate financial transactions. With integrated solutions for payment processing and cross-chain compatibility, Halliday significantly enhances its attractiveness to developers and users alike.
