HOT Labs
HOT Labs provides a non-custodial, multi-chain crypto wallet that uses multi-party computation (MPC) to split private key material across a user's device and a decentralized network of validators operating in Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). The wallet supports 140+ blockchains, offers near-instant cross-chain bridging, and includes a built-in staking and earning dashboard, all without HOT Labs ever accessing private keys or seed phrases.

Problem
Traditional crypto wallets rely on a single private key, creating a security risk if that key is compromised or lost. Managing assets across multiple blockchains typically requires switching between different wallets and using insecure bridges, which fragments the user experience and increases exposure to hacks.
Solution
HOT Labs offers a non-custodial, multi-chain wallet that uses multi-party computation (MPC) to split private key material across a user's device and a decentralized network of validators operating in Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). The integrated HOT Bridge enables cross-chain asset transfers in about 30 seconds for the cost of one token transfer, while a built-in staking and earning dashboard lets users manage positions across protocols without leaving the wallet interface. The wallet supports major networks including Solana, NEAR, Stellar, and Polygon, with native swaps, staking, and cross-chain capabilities. HOT Labs does not collect, store, or access private keys, seed phrases, or MPC key shares, ensuring users retain full control of their assets. The platform also includes HOT Pay, a merchant interface for embedding checkout links and accepting crypto payments without custody.
Target Audience
Primary users are individual crypto holders and active DeFi participants seeking a secure, multi-chain wallet for daily transactions, staking, and cross-chain swaps, as well as Web3 merchants needing a non-custodial payment interface.
Features
- MPC-based wallet architecture where a user-generated key_shift and validator-held key shares in TEEs must cooperate to sign transactions, eliminating single points of failure.
- HOT Bridge supports fast, non-custodial transfers across major blockchains, completing transactions in roughly 30 seconds with a fee equivalent to one token transfer.
- Built-in staking and earning dashboard for managing positions across liquidity pools, farming, and other protocols directly within the wallet interface.
- HOT Pay merchant interface for creating and embedding checkout links, enabling direct crypto payments without custody.
- Support for multiple blockchains including Solana, NEAR, Stellar, Polygon, and Base, with native swaps and cross-chain asset management.
- No data collection of private keys, key_shift, MPC key shares, or transaction signing credentials; HOT Labs does not profile users or link analytics to wallet addresses.
