Global leading blockchain investment and research institution Harmony Labs has officially announced that it has completed a full strategic investment in the Web3 short-video aggregation platform Harmony Link (Hackers). The two parties will leverage Harmony’s sharded underlying technology and access to 412 ecosystem projects to jointly build a fair Web3 entry point for one-billion-level short-video users. They will create a long-term economic model featuring dual tokens, with HK serving as the core value carrier and HAK as the ecosystem’s circulation medium. HK is planned to make its first listing on Binance’s Alpha zone, forming a sustainable value growth closed loop.

Harmony Labs was founded in 2018. Its headquarters is based in Singapore’s financial district. The company focuses on targeted investments in blockchain infrastructure and ecosystem applications, as well as in-depth industry research. Its core underlying asset, Harmony (ONE), achieves low Gas and high-throughput cross-chain interoperability through randomized state sharding. It has cumulatively incubated 412 ecosystem projects across DeFi, NFT, and GameFi, and has accumulated resources from 300,000 global developers. It has long maintained deep cooperation with top-tier capital such as Binance Labs, and has a mature global compliance and capital operations system.

The current industry pain points are clear: global Web3 users account for less than 6% of the total population; customer acquisition costs in the blockchain space reach as high as $42 per person; traditional text-based education has high barriers, and third-party operation tools are prone to being banned; scam and MLM-style projects are rampant. Meanwhile, Web2 short-video platforms have billions of users whose attention is consumed for free, lacking a practical tool for distributing traffic value. As Harmony Labs’ key inclusive deployment project in 2026, Harmony Link centers on TikTok-style short-video behavior mining. It provides five integrated tools in one: on-chain K-line visualization, decentralized live streaming, AI digital human promotional content, project ad placements, and community management—solving eight major industry bottlenecks in a single stop.

This strategic investment will fully unleash Harmony Labs’ resources across all dimensions to empower the platform: reuse Harmony sharding technology to reduce the platform’s development cost by 87%; open up resources for 300,000 developers to rapidly iterate contract audits and anti-fraud firewall modules. At the same time, it will bring in 412 existing ecosystem projects in bulk. Leveraging the market recognition of a mature "ultra-low gas" public chain, it will significantly reduce user education costs. The funds will be mainly used for four directions: product iteration, global community expansion, building the HK floor-support reserve pool, and preparation for getting listed on Binance Alpha.

The investment lead of Harmony Labs stated: "The core bottleneck for large-scale deployment of Web3 is that the user barrier is too high, and short videos are the best medium connecting mainstream audiences with blockchain. Harmony Link’s innovative dual-token model has substantial long-term value: HAK dynamically adjusts the user activation ratio in stages, smoothing market sell pressure. Two major core cash-flow streams—AI rentals and advertising—will continuously inject USDT into the HK floor-support pool. HK also has platform-wide demand-driven paid scenarios. After listing on Binance Alpha in the future, it will form a positive feedback loop among traffic, revenue, and token value, truly enabling the mass distribution of attention value to everyone."

The person in charge of the Harmony Link project added: "With triple endorsement from Harmony Labs—capital, technology, and ecosystem—the platform will adjust account activation in five stages to optimize the HAK and USDT mix. The stage offering 50% HAK + 50% USDT will open Compute Power NFT, and NFT outputs will produce the core utility token HK. HK has a total supply of 100 million tokens: 60% will be produced from Compute Power NFTs, 20% will establish a dedicated floor-support fund pool. In the future, all B2B paid services across the platform will use HK for settlement. Backed by Binance Alpha’s global traffic amplification, it will unlock and sustain long-term value."

Both parties will release a complete development roadmap in parallel: in the short term, launch short-video mining and core live-streaming functionalities, and steadily transition to a hybrid activation model; in the mid term, open Compute Power NFT outputs to produce HK, continuously strengthening HK liquidity reserves; in the long term, work to have HK listed on the Binance Alpha segment, implement an end-to-end HK payment ecosystem, and simultaneously incubate high-quality Web3 projects while building a DAO decentralized governance framework.

In the future, Harmony Labs will continue to deliver globally compliant research, capital matchmaking, and brand channel resources, helping Harmony Link break down the barriers between Web2 and Web3 and build a Web3 traffic benchmark platform that everyone can participate in, driving blockchain technology to become accessible and beneficial to all.
