Overview
Hibernia Networks, formerly Hibernia Atlantic, was a US-based provider of global telecommunications and CDN services, operating subsea and terrestrial fiber networks. It served financial markets, media, and telecom providers with low-latency connectivity, including the Hibernia Express transatlantic cable. Acquired by GTT Communications in January 2017, its CDN services, including HiberniaCDN, are no longer independently offered, and the brand is defunct.
Teleport was a Solana-based decentralized ridesharing application that leveraged blockchain technology to provide a CDN-like infrastructure for transparent, intermediary-free data delivery. Launched publicly in 2024, it aimed to disrupt traditional ridesharing with smart contracts and crypto payments but ceased operations in 2025 due to insufficient market readiness. The service is now defunct, with no active operations or infrastructure support.

History & Notes
Hibernia Networks operated a global network across North America, Europe, and Asia, with key cable landing stations in Canada, the US, Ireland, and the UK. Its Hibernia Express cable was notable for sub-59ms latency between New York and London, targeting financial and media sectors. After the 2017 acquisition by GTT Communications, Hibernia’s infrastructure was absorbed, and no public documentation indicates a revival of its CDN services. A 2019 subsea cable cut led to a legal dispute with a customer, highlighting operational challenges pre-acquisition.
Teleport aimed to create a cost-effective, transparent ridesharing ecosystem using Solana’s blockchain but struggled with low adoption and regulatory uncertainties around crypto payments. The complexity of onboarding mainstream users to a blockchain-based system was a significant barrier. No evidence suggests a revival or successor service as of August 16, 2025.
