Hypha🌱 (@hypha_sh) — Twitter Score 32 out of 1000

Hypha is a blockchain infrastructure protocol that provides liquid staking, validator services, and Layer 1 launch tooling for the Avalanche ecosystem, formerly operating as GoGoPool. Hypha's Twitter Score is 32 out of 1000 as of July 2026, ranking #34,618 (top 10%) among 531,432 tracked accounts.

Hypha was co-founded by Steven Gates and Johnny Gault as a permissionless staking protocol built around Avalanche Subnets, combining liquid staking, decentralized validator operators, and Subnet compatibility. The protocol has since rebranded and expanded its scope toward a broader ecosystem of Layer 1 networks, offering validator sales, staking, and validation services alongside tools for early-stage projects to create an L1, raise funding, and build communities. A seed round of $5 million, co-led by Framework Ventures and CoinFund, was announced on August 31, 2022 as the protocol's first funding round, with additional backing from Republic Crypto, FinTech Collective, Genesis Block Ventures, Avalaunch, Flow Traders, Builder Capital, Alpha Crypto, Silverstone Ventures, and Taureon.

Hypha operates a Minipool mechanism that jointly funds an Avalanche validator using AVAX from a node operator and matching AVAX from the liquid-staking deposit pool, with operators providing $GGP token collateral. Users who stake AVAX through the protocol receive $stAVAX, a liquid-staking token representing deposited AVAX and accruing rewards. The former $ggAVAX token was rebranded as $stAVAX without altering its functionality or yield, and holders were not required to convert. The $GGP token, an ERC-20 asset used for validator collateral, network rewards, insurance, and governance, remained unchanged through the rebrand. Hypha has also partnered with qualified custodian BitGo to enable institutional participation in Avalanche DeFi.

Hypha additionally offers an L1 Launcher designed to deploy Avalanche L1 networks on Fuji or mainnet and connect them with a validator marketplace, positioning the protocol as an alignment layer across independent L1 projects through shared resources and coordinated incentives. Hypha has published 4,444 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 28 accounts a total of 39 times.
