Headstarter is a decentralized fundraising platform and launchpad built exclusively for the Hedera network. Its primary purpose is to accelerate the growth of the Hedera ecosystem by providing a secure and streamlined environment for new projects to raise capital and build an initial community.
The platform operates on a tier-based system centered around its native token, $HST. To gain access to token sales, prospective investors are required to stake a certain amount of $HST, which places them into different tiers. These tiers determine the size of the allocation a user is guaranteed in an upcoming IDO, with higher amounts of staked tokens granting access to larger investment opportunities. This model creates utility and sustained demand for the $HST token while ensuring a fair and organized capital-raising process.
For projects, Headstarter provides an end-to-end solution for launching a token, handling the technical complexities of the sale and providing access to an engaged community from day one. For investors, it offers a vetted and secure venue to discover and support promising, early-stage Hedera-native projects.

Blockchain for Energy (B4E) is a non-profit, member-led consortium dedicated to driving digital transformation within the energy sector. Comprising major energy companies including Chevron, ExxonMobil, and Repsol, B4E was established to collaboratively develop and implement blockchain-based solutions that can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and increase transparency across the industry.
The consortium's flagship product is the B4ECarbon platform, an advanced digital measurement, reporting, and verification (dMRV) solution. This platform integrates AI and IoT with distributed ledger technology to provide a secure and auditable system for managing emissions data. It enables energy operators to track, report, and verify their environmental performance in near real-time, helping to prevent greenwashing and ensure compliance with global standards. The B4E Network & Platform, built on Hyperledger FireFly, serves as the foundational layer connecting all of the consortium's solutions in a decentralised environment governed by its members.
The B4ECarbon platform is built on the Hedera public network, and has been a member of the Hedera Governing Council since June 2025.

Fliggs Mobile is a digital-first, Web3-enabled mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that aims to bridge the gap between telecommunications and financial services. Its core service is providing flexible, no-contract mobile plans that run on T-Mobile's nationwide 5G network. These plans, managed entirely through the Fliggs Mobile app, include features such as eSIM activation, international roaming passes, and data boosters.
It also features Web3 integration features including a non-custodial digital wallet built into the app. This wallet enables a loyalty program that rewards users with monthly cashback in Bitcoin or USDC on their service fees.
Fliggs Mobile is built on Hedera's distributed ledger technology, which is used to issue a Decentralised ID (DID) to every user upon activation. This gives customers sovereign control over their digital identity and personal data. The non-custodial wallet also leverages Hedera for its security and functionality, enabling secure cryptocurrency payments and the management of rewards. This integration is supported by The Hashgraph Association, which has provided both funding and technical support to pioneer this convergence of telecom services and decentralised technology.
Bitcarbon is a digital asset created by Diamond Standard, founded in 2018. Bitcarbon functions as the governance token for the "Carats" ecosystem, which is a system of commodity tokens backed by physical Diamond Standard Coins and Bars held in secure vaults.
The core product is a fungible and transparent diamond commodity, which is tokenised to create liquidity in the previously illiquid diamond market. Each "Carat" token represents a fractional ownership of a Diamond Standard commodity, providing a trustless store of wealth that can be used for payments. The Bitcarbon token, in turn, governs the Carats smart contract and earns revenue from the transaction and custody fees generated by the Carats ecosystem. This creates a unique digital asset that is intrinsically linked to the value and utility of a physical, real-world asset.
Bitcarbon and the entire Diamond Standard ecosystem are deeply integrated with the Hedera network. The company uses the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to mint and manage its digital assets, including the tokens that represent ownership of the physical diamond commodities.
