Room for everyone. No queue, no gatekeeping, no network buckling under demand.
Hedera scales with you. High throughput, built for growth from day one.
Space for everyone to build.
Arrow McLaren is running its collectibles on Hedera
The IndyCar team released drop two of five, free to claim in HashPack, built on @hedera rather than Ethereum or a rollup.
Minting through Hedera Token Service skips contract deployment and audit overhead entirely. Mints run a few cents and transfers near $0.001, with $HBAR fees priced in dollars so costs hold steady.
Banks keep picking Hedera
@hedera is run by a council of companies, not a foundation or an open validator set. Google, IBM, Deutsche Telekom and FedEx all operate nodes.
Taurus finished an 18-month integration on August 5, putting $HBAR custody, staking and tokenization in front of 40+ banks, per @The_Hashgraph. Deutsche Bank and State Street are on the list.
🇪🇺 Massive use case for @Hedera!
@iobuilders created a European trading & settlement market on the @Hedera mainnet for Spain’s equivalent of the DTCC called Iberclear operated by @sixgroup.
Bonds. Equities. Banks. Public DLT.
Glowing reviews from ESMA & the Bank of Spain. 👀
@Chris0x88@hedera@thehbarbull@IOV_OWL I am equally shocked at how you did what every bad commentator does, taking phrases out of their wider context to apply a negative perspective to support your own malicious agenda. @Hedera absolutely ticks all the boxes required by the Clarity act. $hbar is a commodity.
Spot on @thehbarbull , I recently blocked Tomachi after I posted a perfectly reasonable bailout out drives confidence opinion and, for a moment, the veil lifted and he showed his true anti-foundation, anti granted projects face.
I’ll go down the path of once again defending myself or others with you, Tomachi. I won’t repost this, as I’m simply trying to engage with you and those that you are reaching. I will try to lay everything out so my perspective is clear.
I want to start by saying some positive things. You are clearly a talented developer, and your dedication to your product is very impressive. You bring a lot to the space and have the potential to do so much more. That said, I do take issue with how you often go about things.
A while back, not long after I had been advocating for HSuite to receive a grant from the Foundation, I noticed a group of community members going after a new builder on Hedera, VRJam, saying they had committed fraud in the market of their newly launched token. I dug into what had occurred, and in my opinion, it was not fraud but rather efforts that are often necessary in unregulated markets. They made mistakes: launching too early, at too high a valuation, and shutting down communication in a panic from what seemed like a coordinated attack. But in my opinion, they hadn’t done anything that warranted being put in a position where they could not continue building on the network. If they had committed fraud, the proper action would have been to contact the authorities. My defense really was not about VRJam, I barley knew them, it was about how they were being railroaded.
I believe the motive was frustration that VRJam had received a grant and HSuite had not. I understand that frustration, but it does not justify how they were treated.
From what I perceived, you had started much of the drive against them, and I met with you to try to find a way forward in an attempt to heal the community. I brought a DeFi expert to explain that what they had done was not fraud and hoped that you would publicly apologize to hopefully allow them to continue building. You refused and said they had to apologize. I didn’t feel that was reasonable.
You may say that I am assuming you were coordinating things in the background, but you had done the same to me when I came to their defense. As the mob turned toward me, some of the HSuite council came to my defense. You demanded that they retract their support for me and repost your tweet claiming VRJam had committed fraud (paraphrasing), or be forced from your council. One complied, while two refused, resigned, and left the HSuite council.
Not long after, an employee of one of the organizations said something to the effect of, "I wouldn’t touch HSuite with a 10-foot pole," a comment that I thought was wrong. That said, a familiar attack campaign was levied against him, and it cost him his job.
I’ve seen similar tactics on other occasions, although I try not to engage. If the motive is truth-seeking, I am 100% behind it. If the motive is negatively impacting other projects within Hedera, even if to lift up your own, I cannot abide by it.
More recently, I noticed a series of posts where you were "asking questions" about other Hedera projects, including DOVU and Acoer. In isolation, the questions and comments could be reasonable, but by the third, I felt it was clear the motive was to cause FUD around projects that had received grants, likely motivated by your own frustration over not receiving one. I engaged because I didn’t want to see the trend continue.
There are legitimate questions to ask about HSuite, but it’s not my style to raise them publicly without first giving forewarning privately. I will do it here, however, as an example of how legitimate questions can be perceived if driven by the wrong motive. But understand that I want nothing but success for HSuite and everything else mentioned to follow. These are simply questions to make a point.
HSuite’s initial main product, from my perspective, was a DEX. A successful DEX has one of the easiest paths to profitability. Buyers of a DEX token expect the possibility of that success. I could imagine frustration as HSuite wound down their exchange platform. Another DEX, SilkSwap, was built upon HSuite, and they launched their own token, SILK. My question is this: did the HSuite founders receive any SILK while HSUITE token holders did not? If the answer is that you received no SILK from that deal, fair enough. But if HSUITE token holders lost out on DEX upside, that in itself is a bit of a bait and switch. I would never say that is fraudulent, pivots happen, but that kind of grace should be afforded to all builders.
Next, I have a question about Smart Nodes. I think it’s great that you are building an appnet, but the main question around appnets is: how many nodes are there, and who is running and controlling them? Looking at your status page, it appears there are three, but even if there are more, users should know who those entities are and how trusted they are. So the question is: who are they, and can we talk with them individually? Hedera has a limited number of nodes and adds trust through who operates those nodes. Hashport, though smaller, used trusted entities that could be engaged with as well: The Hedera Foundation, MANTRA, Hex Trust, HashPack, SaucerSwap, LimeChain, and BCW Group.
Appnets have benefits and drawbacks, but when operated correctly, they certainly have their place. Applications built upon smart contracts have had issues, but I whole heartedly believe they can be built safely. You don’t have to tear them down to build your own strategy up.
Last time I gave you a long reply, it was to give you more context. This time I went further back to give you even more of my perspective. Much of your analysis on the recent Bonzo exploit has been very good, and I have praised you for it. That said, I believe you have been instrumental in building an aggressive, detrimental culture in a corner of the Hedera community. I know we can do great things together, but not if we are pulling each other apart.
The @Hedera Council is made up of organizations that run nodes and vote on network decisions. The model is designed to distribute that control across a range of industries and use cases.
Council members include the likes of Google, IBM, Dell, and more.
We asked @GregoryLBell, Chief Investment Officer at @hashgraph, how much this structure matters when speaking to banks and asset managers.
His answer:
@EddieGilbert90 I liked the Hsuite concept, smart nodes (appnet), 0% slippage etc. and have held the token. However, I must agree that the constant anti-hedera foundation narrative hidden in a trojan horse of we are providing a voice of truth and transparency to the community is tiresome.
@Buchi_Laba It's a completely dispicable way to play the beautiful game, it has tarnished Messi's reputation an Argentinian who has inspired billions, and has brought the game into disrepute. I don't want my kids to watch this and think that's it's ok to behave like this on the pitch.
@LIGHTSEEKER1984 Yes, he really did go in with that much force and a clear intention to leave something on the defender - definitely a yellow card, some refs would give a straight red.
@nev19591@DonaldClark That's an " I'm not going to win the ball, so I'll leave something on him challenge worthy of a yellow card, if not a straight red. The behaviour of the player who falls over immediately after he sees the severity of his team mates foul play - should be a yellow for simulation!
@TomachiAnura When the government provides traditional bank account holders with assurances that their funds will be returned this generates confidence and ensures ongoing usage. Hedera Foundation are doing the same thing. Smart move imo.
