I don’t think it’s a hard dependency - I think Hydro-relation is just that box on the side of one screen.
The rest of the website is coming from onchain data / manual entry, e.g. for the phase 1 Delegator functions:
- Ability to see current/upcoming chains
- See each chains info
- Seeing which vals are validating a particular chain
- and then switching my delegations on the site as a result
