Welcome back, everyone, to another HackerNoon Company of the Week feature. Each week, we spotlight a noteworthy company from our Tech Company Database, which spans S&P giants and rising startups alike. These companies are making their mark on the global technology ecosystem while improving their users’ lives and workflows, and we’re excited for you to learn more about them.

For this edition, our sights are set on SODAX—a cross-network execution and liquidity system that coordinates execution and liquidity across 21 networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, Bitcoin, Sui, and Stellar.

Get to Know SODAX

Moving money between blockchains can take more work than it should. There are wallets to connect, bridges to navigate, and multiple transactions standing between you and one simple task. SODAX handles that work behind the scenes, giving developers the tools to add swaps, lending, and borrowing to their apps without building all the cross-network infrastructure themselves.

Its system finds routes for transactions, coordinates the bridges involved, and manages execution across networks that don’t all move at the same pace. The company’s website lists more than 11,000 trading routes and over $2 billion in addressable liquidity, giving developers access to existing pools without having to set up and maintain their own on every network.

For anyone entering Colosseum’s Crypto World’s Fair, the timing is worth noting. Running September 14 through October 12, 2026, it’s the organizer’s first hackathon open to builders beyond Solana. Its participating ecosystems include Ethereum, Base, Hyperliquid, Arbitrum, and Robinhood Chain.

If your project needs to connect those ecosystems, SODAX might just be the “cheat code” you didn’t know you needed. Its Solana quickstart, for example, shows how to swap SOL on Solana for USDC on Arbitrum, with the SDK handling the relay process. If you’re building with an AI coding assistant, SODAX’s Builders MCP gives it access to documentation, live token lists, and quotes to help with the integration.

With submissions due October 12, that could leave your team more time to build, test, and refine the parts of your app users will care about.

SODAX 🤝 HackerNoon Business Blogging

To kickstart their Business Blogging journey on HackerNoon, SODAX published Agentic Payments are Coming, and Cross-Network Settlement is Still Up for Grabs. in May, where they discussed the fast-growing niche of Agentic Payments and their positioning as the infrastructure partner for applications to build agentically across blockchain networks. Since then, they’ve published six additional pieces touching on helping Solana apps attract capital from other networks, adding leveraged staking to apps without building the underlying strategy logic, and tying SODA’s tokenomics to protocol usage through staking rewards and token buybacks and burns, alongside its expansion to Kraken.

The following are some of their most popular stories with us:

• The Everything Chain's Still Missing Supply: How to Attract Capital to Solana
• How to Ship Leveraged Staking to Your App Without Writing a Line of Logic
• The Sodax Guide to Redesigning Tokenomics Around Growth and Bringing It to Traders Worldwide

Meet HackerNoon’s Projects of the Week

• SpyderBot focuses on a growing question for brands: how do they show up in AI-generated answers? Its Generative Engine Optimization analytics platform is designed to track brand mentions, citations, and visibility across systems such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity, helping brands and agencies understand their presence beyond traditional search.

• TOON Converter converts JSON into a more compact format designed to reduce the number of tokens sent to large language models. Built for developers working on AI agents, automations, and data pipelines, it tackles a cost that can add up quickly as usage grows.

• Advanced Process Manager brings process supervision, rolling restarts, reverse proxying, and monitoring into a single lightweight Linux tool. It supports applications written in different languages and runs without external runtime dependencies, giving developers and system administrators fewer separate tools to configure and maintain.

That’s all for this week.

Until next time, Hackers!
