HLiquity is a decentralized borrowing protocol built and deployed on the Hedera blockchain network. It offers users a method to take out loans against their HBAR collateral and enables HBAR holders to access liquidity in the form of a USD-pegged stablecoin without selling held HBAR assets.
The core mechanism allows users to deposit HBAR into a smart contract to mint the protocol's stablecoin to obtain interest-free loans with a one-time borrowing fee. HLiquity operates on a system of over-collateralization, requiring borrowers to maintain a collateral ratio above a specified minimum to secure their debt.
A key component of the protocol is the Stability Pool, where users can deposit the HLiquity-issued stablecoin. These deposits are used to absorb debt from liquidated positions, and Stability Pool providers are compensated with a share of the liquidated HBAR collateral. HLiquity aims to provide a capital-efficient and censorship-resistant borrowing solution within the Hedera DeFi ecosystem.

Deloitte, a global leader in professional services, provides a wide range of audit, consulting, tax, and advisory services. Leveraging its deep industry expertise, the firm developed the Environmental and Social Impact (ESI) Platform. This platform is a sophisticated digital measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) solution that enables corporations to measure, track, and report on their ESG initiatives. Its primary function is to transform sustainability efforts into evidence-based, auditable claims, directly addressing the challenge of greenwashing by providing a clear and credible record of a company's environmental and social impact.
The ESI Platform's foundation is a strategic partnership with The Hashgraph Association. The platform is built on the Hedera public distributed ledger, utilizing its technology to not only record ESG data but also to tokenise these verified impacts. Using the open-source Hedera Guardian toolset, the ESI platform creates a transparent and immutable audit trail, allowing for the creation of quantifiable, transferable digital assets that represent real-world sustainability outcomes.
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.
