Hedera Contributes Bridgeless CLPR Protocol to Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust as New Lab

Hedera contributes the bridgeless CLPR protocol to the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust lab, fostering cross-ledger interoperability without bridges. CLPR uses cryptographic state proofs to allow direct verification between ledgers, reducing risk from bridge exploits. As an LFDT lab, CLPR will be openly developed in LFDT Labs, with a Cross-Ledger Early Adopter Program inviting financial institutions, fintechs, and asset issuers to test on a Hashgraph-hosted testnet. Key dates include the lab donation and the program launch window in 2026, with multi-use cases in payments, settlement, and collateral mobility.
