Hedera Hashgraph is one of the most used, sustainable enterprise-grade public networks for the decentralized economy. Hedera is a fully open source public distributed ledger that utilizes the fast, fair, and secure hashgraph consensus. The platform enables seamless tokenization of real-world and digital assets at scale, offering unmatched performance, security, and compliance for thriving tokenized economies. Its network services include Solidity-based smart contracts, as well as native tokenization and consensus services used to build decentralized applications. Whether you're a startup or enterprise, a creator or a consumer, Hedera goes beyond blockchain for developers to create the next era of fast and secure applications. 

ABOUT HEDERA HASHGRAPH

  • Hedera is a fully open source, proof-of-stake, public network that utilizes the fast, fair, and secure hashgraph consensus.

  • It offers developers three primary services: Solidity-based smart contracts, consensus, and token services. 

  • It supports developers in creating scalable and secure decentralized applications for enterprise and consumer use cases, offering high transaction throughput, low latency, and security across various industries.

  • From innovative web3 ecosystems to Fortune 500 companies, developers are building the next generation of the web on Hedera.


HEDERA NETWORKS

  • Token Service. 

The Hedera Token Service enables configuring, managing, and transferring native fungible and non-fungible tokens on the public Hedera network.

  • Consensus Service

A purpose-built tool for creating decentralized, auditable logs of immutable and timestamped events for web2 and web3 applications. 

  • Smart Contract Service. 

Build decentralized applications using Solidity and the most ubiquitous EVM tooling, libraries, and environments.

  • HBAR. 

HBAR is the native, energy-efficient cryptocurrency of the public Hedera network. Hbars are used to pay application transaction fees and protect the network from attack through proof-of-stake.


APPLICATIONS

  • Payments. 

Enable secure, instant, and cost-effective peer-to-peer payments with HBAR, stablecoins, or your own token.

  • CBDC. 

Architect central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) for national or international remittance.

Remove costly intermediaries and build financial markets, lending protocols, oracles, and more with Solidity-based smart contracts.

  • NFTs. 

Build NFT marketplaces that mint and issue unique tokens representing digital media, physical assets, and more.

Make private transactions on permissioned blockchains, such as Hyperledger Fabric or Corda, publicly verifiable.
