Momental is a Web3 platform specializing in creating dynamic, data-driven digital collectibles, described as "Living NFTs." The company partners with sports teams, athletes, and brands to transform key moments into evolving digital assets. Unlike static NFTs, Momental’s collectibles are designed to change their appearance and metadata over time based on real-world events and data streams.

‍

The platform is built on the Hedera network, utilizing its unique capabilities to power these dynamic assets. For example, a digital trading card of an athlete, minted as an NFT on the Hedera Token Service (HTS), can automatically update to reflect their latest game statistics, career achievements, or even video highlights. The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is used to ingest and provide a transparent, tamper-proof record of the real-world data feeds that trigger these updates. This ensures the authenticity and verifiable history of each change to the "Living NFT."

Through partnerships with organizations such as the SSU rugby team in South Africa, Momental provides a novel way for fans to own a piece of their favorite team's journey.

SaucerSwap is a decentralized exchange (DEX) and automated market maker (AMM) protocol built on the Hedera blockchain network. It provides permissionless swapping services for Hedera Token Service (HTS) tokens.

‍

The platform allows users to trade between Hedera-based assets and enables users to become liquidity providers by depositing HTS tokens into liquidity pools where they earn a share of the trading fees generated by those pools. Additionally, it offers yield farming programs which allow liquidity providers to stake LP tokens for further rewards. 

‍

SaucerSwap has its own native asset, the SAUCE token, which is used for platform governance through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) as well as for staking and incentivizing liquidity. The platform aims to be a foundational component of the DeFi landscape on Hedera by providing essential infrastructure for token exchange and liquidity services to the network's users and developers. It also prioritizes user and network security through decentralized management and third-party security audits for smart contracts.

Qples is a digital promotions platform that specializes in the creation, distribution, and validation of digital coupons for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands and retailers. The platform provides an end-to-end solution for delivering targeted offers to consumers through various channels, including mobile wallets and print-at-home formats.

‍

It’s goal is to address long-standing challenges in the coupon industry, most notably fraud and the lack of real-time validation through its integration with the Hedera blockchain network. By leveraging the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), Qples creates a verifiable and immutable record for each digital coupon it issues. When a coupon is created, its unique data is hashed and submitted to the Hedera public ledger, generating a "proof of state" with a secure, tamper-proof timestamp.

‍

This on-chain verification allows for real-time authentication at the point of sale, effectively preventing fraudulent redemptions and unauthorized duplication through the creation of a universal, single-use digital asset. Its integration with the Hedera blockchain network enables Qples to offer brands a highly secure, transparent, and data-rich promotions solution.
