About Holograph
In a space where interoperability between blockchains is key in order for the space to develop, CXIP Labs and Holograph aim to reduce that barrier through their omnichain NFT experience.

- Core: An omnichain minting and bridging API for developers.
- Mint: An NFT minting interface for creators with no-code.
