Technical References#

If you want to go deeper than the product docs, this page maps the main technical sources behind Hightop.

Start with Hightop's own Under the Hood pages. Then follow into the open-source protocol repos, technical docs, user docs, and live parameter tools behind the wallet, earn, and borrowing systems underneath.

This page only lists public references that open without authentication.

Start Here in Hightop#

These pages explain the Hightop product model before you drop into protocol internals:

  • Architecture - how the app, API, wallet, payment, earn, and borrowing layers fit together
  • Wallet Model - the smart wallet and control model behind a Hightop account
  • Earn Under the Hood - vaults, routing, and rebalancing behind Hightop Earn
  • Borrowing Under the Hood - collateral, GREEN, and lending logic behind Hightop Borrow
  • Supported Assets and Venues - the main asset families, rails, and venue integrations surfaced in product flows
  • Audits - independent security audit reports for Underscore and Ripe

Underscore Protocol#

Underscore Protocol was built by the Hightop team. It powers the smart-wallet, delegation, and earn infrastructure underneath Hightop, and it is the wallet and vault layer behind Hightop's account model, agent execution lanes, payment primitives, and yield routing.

Public source repos for the docs layer are also available: underscore-docs and underscore-technical-docs.

Ripe Protocol#

Ripe Protocol was also built by the Hightop team. It powers the borrowing infrastructure underneath Hightop, and it is the credit layer behind Borrow, GREEN, unified multi-collateral lending, and the debt mechanics that Amplified Earn builds on top of.

Base and Settlement#

Hightop, Underscore, and Ripe all settle on Base. These are the two most useful infrastructure references if you want to inspect live chain state or understand the settlement layer itself:

Summary#

  • Hightop explains the product model and user-facing system design
  • Underscore provides the wallet, delegation, vault, and venue-routing infrastructure underneath
