Cross-chain bridge

Cross-chain messaging layer live (May 31, 2026). AereMessenger (0xe54c2329…25477325) is a Hyperlane-Mailbox-compatible cross-chain message bus deployed on chain 2800. Token-bridge counterparties (AereWarpRoute for USDC, USDT, WETH, cbBTC) ship per-asset as the Hyperlane registry merge lands. The form below is preview-only until the first WarpRoute deployment.

Move tokens between AERE Network and any chain registered in Hyperlane. ECDSA-multisig attested, replay-protected, drop-in compatible with the public Hyperlane validator network when AERE joins the registry.

Bridge architecture (Tier 1.4 + 1.5 live)

AereMessenger: 0xe54c2329…25477325, Hyperlane-compatible message bus
AereIGP: 0x61B48615…fdD86E837, Interchain Gas Paymaster
AereSpokePool V1, deprecated: 0xCAB1DBA5…B3181AbD. Do not integrate. Our own registry marks it flawed: its settlement path could release locked principal without properly verifying the delivered output leg. Measured 2026-08-01, it holds a zero balance. Replaced by AereSpokePoolV2Corrected 0xbEF9BF0D…8C623d8d (6,317 bytes live), which is deployed but deliberately inert: no remote spoke is enrolled, so no intent route is open on either version today.
AereERC7683 V1, deprecated: 0x67Fb9830…273ccb29. It routes into the deprecated SpokePool above, so it inherits the same problem. Replaced by AereERC7683V2Corrected 0x8eC4e7F0…381560e3 (7,931 bytes live), also inert.
Patterns: Hyperlane Warp Route (typed token), Across-v3 intent (one-click)
Status: Phase 1, bootstrap validator set. No intent route is live: the V1 intent contracts are deprecated and the corrected V2 pair is deployed but not wired. Across registry and solver onboarding are pending.

The legacy 1-of-1 federated AereBridge was torn down on the Foundation's AERE-only-token mandate. AereMessenger + per-asset Warp Routes are the canonical path going forward.

Estimated finality on Hyperlane: ~30 seconds source confirmation + 1-3 minutes destination relay. ECDSA-multisig quorum threshold rises as the Foundation Council validator set expands.
