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.

Porini Foundation Nature Collectibles is an initiative by the Swiss-based Porini Foundation that leverages blockchain technology to create a sustainable funding model for nature conservation. The project aims to connect a global community of collectors with real-world conservation efforts, providing a transparent and direct way to support the protection of endangered species and their habitats.
At the core of the initiative are Nature Collectibles, which are unique digital representations of a species, also known as NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). Each collectible is a "digital twin" of a real animal and is linked to a specific, on-the-ground conservation project in a protected area. These digital assets can be purchased, collected, and traded through a dedicated mobile app. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the initial sale of a Nature Collectible go directly to the conservation actors in the field, with the Porini Foundation covering all transaction fees.
The entire Nature Collectibles ecosystem is built on the Hedera network. The Hedera Token Service (HTS) is used to mint the NFTs, ensuring their uniqueness and providing a secure and transparent record of ownership. All transactions are recorded on the Hedera public ledger, allowing donors to see their contributions in real-time.

The Hedera Wallet Snap is a powerful open-source plugin that extends the functionality of MetaMask, one of the world's most popular crypto wallets, to the Hedera network. Developed by Tuum Technologies and managed by Hashgraph, the Snap allows users and developers to interact directly with Hedera's native services without relying on a JSON-RPC relay.
At its core, the Hedera Wallet Snap transforms MetaMask into a native Hedera wallet. This provides users with a familiar interface to manage their HBAR and other Hedera-based assets. Key services include the ability to send and receive HBAR, view account information and token balances, and interact with the Hedera Token Service (HTS), Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), and Hedera Smart Contract Service (HSCS). This comprehensive functionality empowers developers to build and deploy sophisticated decentralized applications on Hedera, while providing a seamless and intuitive experience for end-users.
The integration of the Hedera Wallet Snap opens up the network to MetaMask's vast user base of over 30 million monthly active users, greatly expanding the potential reach of Hedera-based applications.
