An on-chain proposal to burn 16.5 million HEI was approved by the council.
Heima was founded by Hanwen Cheng, previously a software engineer at Parity, and its team evolved from the Litentry core team. Heima's design centers on a DAO in which HEI holders vote on proposals (per the project's documentation). The core team focuses on building the foundational technology and fostering the ecosystem, while the community drives adoption.
Heima Network is an independent Layer 1 blockchain built on Polkadot with nominated PoS consensus. The ERC-20 contract 0xf8f173e20e15f3b6cb686fb64724d370689de083 is the token's Ethereum representation. The ecosystem is designed around several core functions:
The platform uses smart contracts to automate these processes, supporting transparent and trustless interactions.
Heima uses Omni Accounts secured by TEE and SMPC, chain abstraction that gives users one account across chains, and best trade routing that aggregates liquidity across DEXs.
Heima began in 2019 as Litentry (LIT), focused on cross-chain identity aggregation. In 2025 Litentry rebranded as Heima Network, expanding into cross-chain infrastructure; LIT holders migrate to HEI.
The predecessor project Litentry received investment from Binance Labs and YZi Labs; Heima is tagged as part of the DWF Labs portfolio.
Heima supports Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, and other blockchain networks. Its products include AgentKeys, Wildmeta, Heima AI Earn, Omni Accounts, and modular SDKs and APIs for building Omni-Chain DEXs.
Heima's primary value proposition lies in its focus on simplifying cross-chain trading and multi-chain interactions. Unlike fragmented multi-chain experiences that require users to manage separate accounts and gas tokens, Heima aims to unify accounts and execution across chains. Its Omni Accounts, secured by TEE and SMPC, are a key differentiator. The project's design centers on a DAO in which HEI holders vote on proposals (per the project's documentation). By aggregating liquidity and routing trades through the most efficient path, Heima seeks to support more efficient cross-chain trading.
The HEI token has several utilities within its ecosystem:
HEI is listed on several major centralized exchanges; check the official website for current listings. Always verify contract addresses and use reputable platforms.
HEI's price is subject to market volatility, and the value of the token can fluctuate significantly. Regulatory policies for cryptocurrencies vary by jurisdiction and may affect access to or trading of HEI. Technical risks include smart contract vulnerabilities and the challenges of building and securing cross-chain infrastructure. The points above reflect general considerations and should not be treated as investment advice.
