Edge is a US-based non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet provider that was founded in 2014. Its primary product, Edge Wallet, is a multi-asset mobile application that allows users to buy, sell, store, and trade a wide variety of cryptocurrencies.
Key services include in-app cryptocurrency purchases through various third-party providers, crypto-to-crypto swaps, and the ability to purchase gift cards with cryptocurrency. A distinguishing feature of Edge is its "zero-knowledge" security architecture, which means that the company has no access to user funds or data. The wallet uses a simple username and password system for account creation and backup, which is a more familiar experience for mainstream users compared to traditional seed phrases.
Edge has a direct integration with the Hedera network, providing full support for HBAR and other Hedera-based assets. This allows users to securely store and manage their HBAR within the Edge wallet. The integration is seamless, enabling users to easily send, receive, and trade HBAR alongside other major cryptocurrencies.

Pyth Network is a first-party financial oracle network that supplies extremely low-latency real-world price data across crypto, equities, forex, commodities, and ETFs. In February 2024 the Pyth catalog of over 400 price feeds was launched on Hedera via a partnership with the HBAR Foundation, giving developers permission-less access to real-time data and confidence intervals to improve DeFi risk management. HLiquity, a decentralized borrowing protocol on Hedera, became the first application to integrate these feeds to ensure accurate pricing and proper collateralization.
Unibright is a German software development company founded in 2017 specializing in enterprise blockchain solutions. Its mission is to simplify distributed ledger technology (DLT) integration for businesses.
The core of Unibright's offering is the Unibright Framework, a "no-code" platform that enables the visual design and automated generation of smart contracts and other blockchain-based business logic. The firm also offers Unibright ONE, a service platform that synchronizes data across various blockchains and legacy IT systems. Another key component of Unibright’s operations is Baseledger, a public, council-governed blockchain that is designed for enterprise-grade performance and data privacy.
In 2021, Unibright integrated the Hedera Token Service (HTS) into its Freequity platform, a 360-degree solution for tokenization that includes issuance, regulatory compliance, and liquidity services. This integration allows Unibright's enterprise clients to issue and manage tokens on the Hedera network, taking advantage of its high throughput, low and predictable fees, robust security, and enterprise-grade infrastructure.
Mawari is a technology company focused on building infrastructure for the 3D internet and spatial computing. It primary work is in developing a decentralized network to power the real-time streaming of immersive, AI-driven 3D experiences with near-zero latency.
The core of Mawari's offering is its Decentralized Content Delivery Network (CDN), a globally distributed network of GPU-powered nodes. This network, combined with Mawari's patented 3D streaming codec and a spatial rendering and streaming SDK, allows for the efficient cloud rendering and delivery of complex 3D content to a wide range of devices, including smartphones and XR glasses. This technology is designed to break the bottlenecks of traditional infrastructure, making high-quality, interactive AR and VR experiences scalable and accessible. The network is built on a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) model, which incentivizes individuals to contribute their unused compute resources.
As a participant in the Hedera ecosystem, Mawari is exploring how Hedera's fast, secure, and sustainable distributed ledger technology can be integrated into its decentralized infrastructure to enhance the security, transparency, and efficiency of its network, particularly as it expands its reach in the burgeoning spatial computing and 3D internet markets.
HGraph Punks is a non-fungible token (NFT) project built on the Hedera network under developer Turtle Moon. It has been active in the HBAR NFT space since 2021. The project draws thematic inspiration from the widely recognized pixelated "Punks" style of profile picture (PFP) collectibles.
A significant feature of HGraph Punks is its point system that utilizes the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). This system enables mainnet-auditable leaderboards, with points directly linked to the NFTs. This allows holders to earn, track, and engage in a competitive and transparent manner. The project also supports NFT staking, where users can stake their HGraph Punks to accumulate points.
HGraph Punks and its parent entity, Turtle Moon, actively contribute to the Hedera ecosystem through community endeavors and the development of open-source Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) tools. Additionally, HGraph Punks has collaborated on community-focused initiatives such as "Liftoff," presented as a virtual music venue and social environment within the Hedera ecosystem.
