Exodus is a non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet company founded in 2015. Headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, the firm is dedicated to providing a user-friendly and secure platform that gives individuals full control over their digital assets.
The company's primary product is the Exodus Wallet, a multi-asset software wallet available on desktop and mobile platforms. It allows users to securely store, manage, and exchange a vast array of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and over one hundred others. Key features include a built-in exchange for seamless asset swaps, portfolio tracking, and the ability to earn rewards through staking. A central tenet of the Exodus platform is its "zero-knowledge" security model, which means that user data and private keys are encrypted and stored locally on the user's device, ensuring that only the user has access to their funds.
Exodus provides full support for Hedera's native cryptocurrency, HBAR, allowing users to create a Hedera account, send, receive, and exchange HBAR directly within the app.

Nexera is a technology company building infrastructure to unite traditional and decentralized finance. Its core mission is to enable the tokenization of real-world assets within a compliant and institutional-grade framework, addressing key barriers that have slowed widespread adoption of blockchain in capital markets.
The cornerstone of this vision is the Nexera Chain, a Layer 1 blockchain specifically designed to be compliance-ready from the ground up. The chain integrates all essential elements for institutional use, including robust tools for regulation and compliance. This is powered by Compilot.ai, an engine that automates complex legal and regulatory demands such as KYC, KYB, and AML into straightforward, AI-driven workflows. The architecture ensures that institutions can meet rigorous standards like MiCA without relying on fragmented third-party solutions.
A critical feature of Nexera's ecosystem is its focus on interoperability, allowing for fluid asset transfers and transparent data flow between public blockchains, private networks, and legacy financial systems. The protocol’s cross-chain capabilities are secured in part by the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). HCS is used as a trust layer to verifiably and transparently log transactions that occur across different networks, ensuring a secure and auditable record of all activity.
Wallawallet is a dedicated mobile cryptocurrency wallet designed to provide a secure and stable experience for users of the Hedera Hashgraph network. It was developed by Ledgerama with a core mission to offer robust management for HBAR, Hedera's native cryptocurrency, and Hedera Token Service (HTS) tokens. With an emphasis on security, it operates as a non-custodial solution ensuring users maintain complete control over their private keys, which are stored directly on their mobile devices. To further enhance security and minimize attack surfaces, it intentionally forgoes a web interface, focusing on a dedicated app environment for iOS and Android.
Key features of Wallawallet include seamless sending and receiving of HBAR and HTS tokens, along with integration for Ledger hardware wallets, allowing users to combine the convenience of a mobile app with the enhanced security of cold storage. It also incorporates functionality to support the Hedera ecosystem with features to help users associate tokens in preparation for airdrops, including HBAR-weighted airdrops.
Magic is a Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) platform that provides developers with tools to streamline user onboarding for decentralized applications, including those built on the Hedera network. The platform's core offering is an SDK that enables seamless authentication and the instant creation of non-custodial wallets for end-users, bypassing many of the traditional complexities of Web3.
For the Hedera ecosystem, Magic allows dApp developers to offer familiar Web2 login methods, such as email or social accounts, instead of requiring users to manage seed phrases or install separate browser-extension wallets. When a user logs into a Magic-enabled Hedera dApp, a secure, Hedera-compatible wallet is automatically generated for them in the background. This wallet is fully capable of interacting with the Hedera network, allowing the user to sign transactions, manage HBAR and HTS tokens, and engage with smart contracts.
The underlying technology uses a delegated key management system, where private keys are encrypted and stored in secure hardware modules, ensuring users retain full control and ownership of their assets without the burden of direct key management.
The IBM Blockchain Platform was a short-term funding and technology project involving the Hedera blockchain network. While this specific project has evolved into an ongoing enterprise blockchain strategy, IBM remains intrinsically involved with the Hedera network as a member of the Hedera Governing Council.
This position provides IBM with a direct voice and vote in the governance of the Hedera public network, influencing its technical roadmap, policies, and overall strategic direction. As a council member, IBM also contributes to the network's operational integrity by running a consensus node.
This engagement with Hedera allows IBM to participate, offer insights and contribute to advancements which align with its broader interests in advancing enterprise-grade distributed ledger solutions (DLT). This involvement complements IBM's extensive work with permissioned blockchains and strengthens the partnership between Hedera and the broader technology industry while providing a holistic perspective on the evolving blockchain landscape for IBM’s global enterprise clients.
