# Heima Network

> Unlock all chains with one account

Heima is a chain abstraction protocol that enables cross-chain trading and account management from a single unified account across multiple blockchains.

Heima is a chain abstraction infrastructure that allows users to interact with multiple blockchains through a single unified account. Users can execute cross-chain swaps, manage assets, and automate strategies using intent-based execution without needing separate wallets or native gas tokens for each network. The protocol operates on its own Layer 1 blockchain and supports programmable automation through a permissionless Agent Hub.

## Products

- [Heima](https://thegrid.id/profiles/heima_network): Heima is a cross-chain infrastructure protocol that enables users to execute transactions across multiple blockchains from a single unified account through an intent-based execution model. The protocol abstracts gas payments, allowing fees to be paid in any token, and routes user intents to an optimal execution path. An on-chain Agent Hub allows developers to deploy autonomous agents for automated trading, staking, and cross-chain operations. (Cross-chain Infrastructure, Live, Main Product)
- [Heima L1 Network](https://thegrid.id/profiles/heima_network): Heima L1 Network is a Layer 1 blockchain built on Substrate that serves as the coordination and registry layer for the Heima chain abstraction protocol. It connects to Polkadot as a parachain, inheriting shared security, and provides the execution environment for cross-chain intent routing and agent management. The chain is EVM-compatible and targets 500ms block times to support real-time DeFi operations. (L1, Live)

## Assets

- [Heima (HEI)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/heima_network): HEI is the native token of Heima, a Layer 1 blockchain and cross-chain abstraction protocol. It is used for governance voting, paying network gas fees through intent fillers, and as a mediation asset in cross-chain liquidity pools. The protocol uses a burn-and-mint model that dynamically adjusts token supply based on demand rather than a fixed emission schedule. (Governance)
