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.

Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network connecting smart contracts on various blockchains with real-world data, events, and off-chain computation. Its fundamental purpose is to enable hybrid smart contracts by providing them with secure and reliable access to external resources, thereby bridging the gap between on-chain and off-chain environments. Chainlink is recognized as an industry standard for building, accessing, and selling oracle services.
The platform offers a comprehensive suite of services to developers and enterprises. These include “Chainlink Price Feeds,” which deliver accurate and tamper-proof financial market data to DeFi applications, “Chainlink VRF” (verifiable random function) for generating provably fair randomness essential for NFTs and blockchain gaming, and “Chainlink Automation,” which provides decentralized and reliable smart contract automation. Furthermore, “Chainlink Functions” allow smart contracts to connect to any external API and run custom computations, while the cross-chain interoperability protocol (CCIP) facilitates secure data and token transfers across different blockchain networks. Chainlink Proof of Reserve offers automated verification of on-chain and off-chain reserves.
MANTRA is a vertically-integrated and regulatory-compliant blockchain ecosystem founded in 2020. Its mission is to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the world of digital assets by providing institutional-grade infrastructure that adheres to global regulatory standards.
The MANTRA ecosystem, also known as the OMniverse, includes several key products. MANTRA Nodes provides blockchain infrastructure-as-a-service, including validator operations and staking services. The MANTRA Chain is a protocol built for regulated assets within the Cosmos ecosystem, and MANTRA Finance is a DeFi platform that will offer a variety of services to both retail and institutional investors.
Through a partnership with hashport, a public utility that facilitates the movement of digital assets between networks, the OM token is now integrated with the Hedera network. This allows for faster, more secure, and lower-cost transactions for OM holders. This integration also opened the door for HeliSwap, a decentralized exchange (DEX) on Hedera, to offer trading pairs with the OM token, further expanding the DeFi possibilities within the Hed-era ecosystem.
The eftpos solution by Australian Payments Plus provides a cost effective, secure and flexible payment infrastructure for Australian businesses. It supports real time debit transactions, tap to pay on mobile devices, eftpos QR payments and least cost routing, which allows merchants to automatically direct debit transactions through the lowest cost network to help reduce the cost of acceptance.
Australian Payments Plus has worked with Google to enable least cost routing in Google Wallet, with ANZ and Suncorp the first issuers to offer this capability. It is also partnering with Giesecke and Devrient to develop eftpos Click to Pay with integrated least cost routing, an online checkout service that uses tokenisation to protect card credentials and is scheduled for rollout from early 2026 following pilot trials.
These developments enhance payment efficiency, improve security, support domestic data sovereignty and align with Reserve Bank of Australia findings that least cost routing can materially reduce merchant debit acceptance costs.
MIOO Technology provides an enterprise-grade platform that connects physical products to the digital world through unique, verifiable digital identities. It specializes in creating Digital Product Passports (DPP), which enable users to track products through QR codes or NFC tags connected directly to a product or its label and secured on the immutable Hedera blockchain network giving them access to a wealth of information about the status of their goods.
The platform is designed to help brands, particularly in the luxury, fashion, and art sectors, combat counterfeiting and prepare for upcoming regulations like the EU’s Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR). The DPP can house detailed data on a product's materials, origin, carbon footprint, and repair history, promoting transparency and sustainability. For consumers, this digital identity serves as an undeniable certificate of authenticity and ownership. For brands, it opens a direct channel for post-sale customer engagement and provides valuable insights into the product lifecycle.
MIOO's technology is active in the micromobility sector with MIOO Cycling, an initiative supported by EIT Urban Mobility. This service uses the DPP to track a bicycle's entire lifecycle, including service history and ownership transfers.
