KwikPik is a Web3-based on-demand delivery and services platform built on the Hedera blockchain network primarily focused on burgeoning markets in Africa and the Middle East. It was founded in Nigeria in 2022 to address a critical gap in reliable, efficient on-demand services, particularly in less densely populated regions.
The platform offers a comprehensive suite of services including swift package delivery, convenient grocery and food ordering, direct sourcing of fresh farm produce, and accessible ride-hailing. At its core, KwikPik deeply integrates Hedera technology and employs the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create auditable, immutable logs for tracking driver journeys, significantly bolstering transparency, reducing fraud, and providing verifiable data for carbon emissions tracking for ESG reporting.
KwikPik’s native stablecoin, $KPL, is built upon the Hedera Token Service (HTS). This facilitates exceptionally low-cost, real-time in-app payments and provides users with intuitive, non-custodial Web3 wallets, simplifying their entry into the digital economy. This allows KwikPik to operate as an efficient decentralized physical infrastructure Network (DePIN), designed to deliver reliable, secure, and scalable services, thereby fostering financial inclusion, expanding market access for local businesses, and generating employment opportunities across its operational areas.
Fireblocks is an enterprise-grade platform that provides secure infrastructure for moving, storing, and issuing digital assets. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in New York, it has become a leading provider of digital asset custody, transfer, and settlement technology for a wide range of financial institutions, including banks, hedge funds, and crypto exchanges.

Fireblocks is deeply integrated with the Hedera network, providing comprehensive support for HBAR and other Hedera-based assets. It also supports the Hedera EVM, enabling clients to interact with Hedera-based smart contracts and decentralized applications. Furthermore, the Hedera Guardian, an open-source platform for ESG assets, can be integrated with Fireblocks, allowing for the secure, remote signing of transactions.
HLiquity is a decentralized borrowing protocol built and deployed on the Hedera blockchain network. It offers users a method to take out loans against their HBAR collateral and enables HBAR holders to access liquidity in the form of a USD-pegged stablecoin without selling held HBAR assets.
The core mechanism allows users to deposit HBAR into a smart contract to mint the protocol's stablecoin to obtain interest-free loans with a one-time borrowing fee. HLiquity operates on a system of over-collateralization, requiring borrowers to maintain a collateral ratio above a specified minimum to secure their debt.
A key component of the protocol is the Stability Pool, where users can deposit the HLiquity-issued stablecoin. These deposits are used to absorb debt from liquidated positions, and Stability Pool providers are compensated with a share of the liquidated HBAR collateral. HLiquity aims to provide a capital-efficient and censorship-resistant borrowing solution within the Hedera DeFi ecosystem.
HashSea is a dedicated NFT marketplace and launchpad platform operating on the Hedera blockchain network. It provides a space for creators and buyers to mint live, purchase assets on secondary market or create their own NFT assets while engaging with the other digital assets native to the Hedera network.
As a marketplace, HashSea facilitates the discovery, purchase, and sale of Hedera NFTs, leveraging the network's high throughput and remarkably low, predictable transaction fees. Meanwhile, functioning as a launchpad, HashSea empowers creators by offering tools and services to easily mint and debut new projects directly to the Hedera ecosystem. This dual role positions HashSea as a key enabler for both established and emerging artists and developers looking to capitalize on Hedera's efficient, carbon-negative infrastructure.
HashSea’s utilization of the Hedera Token Service (HTS) allows it to offer features embedded features such as native, enforceable royalties for creators and near instant transactions. It supports the HashPack wallet for minting, listing, and trading NFTs on the Hedera blockchain network.
