As we close out 2025, we’re proud of what Stronghold delivered. We got a lot done. From locking 60B SHx in transparent smart contract escrow, to launching the SHx bridge, expanding globally, and deepening community governance, this year was about building for the long term. Along the way, we partnered with Axelar Network to enable cross-chain interoperability and expanded SHx access through Tier-1 listings on Uphold and Kraken. Thank you for being part of it. Onward to 2026. Watch the full 2025 roundup:
