What Hemi scales
Hemi is an Ethereum Layer-2 / scaling network token, currently ranked 582nd by market capitalization among the assets we track. Rather than being its own base chain, Hemi batches activity and rolls it up to Ethereum. The HEMI token typically pays for sequencing, governance, or both, depending on the rollup's design.
Hemi (HEMI) is a cryptocurrency designed to enable secure and efficient transactions within its ecosystem. It aims to enhance user experience through innovative features and fast processing times.
How rollup settlement works
The security question for any L2 is how disputes are resolved — optimistic rollups assume validity and allow challenges, while zk-rollups prove it cryptographically. Either way, Ethereum is the court of final appeal.
Background & fundamentals
The project publishes a whitepaper documenting its original design, which is worth reading before sizing any position in HEMI. In sector terms it is most often filed under Ethereum (ETH) Token (ERC-20), Layer 2 (L2), and Governance.
Where Hemi sits in the market
With HEMI near $0.0105, Hemi carries a market capitalization of $10.29M. Around $34.39M changes hands across exchanges in a typical 24-hour window. That is a turnover of about 334.11% of the float — unusually high, the kind of churn that accompanies major news or speculative spikes.
Almost the entire HEMI supply is already in circulation (~100.0% of the 10B cap), so future dilution is effectively off the table. HEMI remains -95% beneath its all-time high of $0.1929, the kind of gap that historically takes a full cycle or a fresh catalyst to close.
What the price history shows
Across timeframes, HEMI shows 24-hour -9.02%, 7-day -0.72%. HEMI is currently trading near the bottom of its 253-day range (around the 1st percentile of recent closes).
Volatility profile
Recent action puts Hemi in the Extreme-volatility band — it is in a high-volatility regime — these are the conditions where outsized gains and losses both become more likely.
How to evaluate an L2 like Hemi
For an asset of this type, three lenses matter most:
- Activity captured — transactions, fees, and TVL that Hemi has pulled from Ethereum mainnet and rival L2s.
- Decentralization roadmap — sequencer decentralization and whether the proof system is live and trust-minimized.
- Token accrual — how — or whether — HEMI actually captures the value the rollup generates.
