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.

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.
Demia is a climate infrastructure company that provides a sophisticated technology platform for securing and verifying data in environmental markets, particularly the carbon market. The company’s mission is to increase trust, reduce friction, and unlock value by creating a transparent and auditable foundation for climate data.
The platform is centered around a "Zero-Trust Data Fabric," which ensures that environmental data—whether from on-site IoT sensors or manual inputs—is protected and verifiable from its source. This system creates a secure chain of custody for information, streamlining the complex processes of measurement, reporting, and verification (dMRV).
As a key partner in the Hedera ecosystem, Demia leverages the Hedera Guardian, an open-source framework for auditable ESG assets. This integration allows Demia to anchor its verified data to the Hedera public ledger, creating an immutable record of a project's environmental impact. This is crucial for their clients—including carbon project developers, auditors, and corporate purchasers—who require undeniable proof of climate action to meet regulatory requirements and investor expectations.
The InterWork Alliance (IWA) is an organization focused on simplifying and standardizing the use of token-powered services for businesses. As an initiative of the Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC), the IWA works to create a common language and framework for tokenized assets, which allows different blockchain networks and applications to work together seamlessly.
The alliance's primary mission is to empower organizations to adopt and use token-based distributed services in their day-to-day operations. To achieve this, the IWA has developed several key frameworks, including the Token Taxonomy Framework (TTF), which provides a common set of definitions and standards for tokens of all types. The IWA also has a strong focus on sustainability, with task forces dedicated to creating standards for Voluntary Ecological Markets and Carbon Emission Tokens.
The Hedera network and its ecosystem partners are active members and contributors to the InterWork Alliance. Hedera has collaborated with the IWA on its Sustainability Working Group, and several applications built on Hedera are designed to be compliant with the IWA's standards.
Meta Carbon is a climate-tech company founded dedicated to making carbon offsetting more transparent, efficient, and engaging. Its mission is to simplify carbon management for businesses and individuals, using technology to bridge the gap between climate action and everyday life.
The core of Meta Carbon's service is its software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, which provides a comprehensive suite of tools for carbon project management. These include features for inventory management, real-time reporting, and yield optimization. The platform also offers a range of engagement tools, such as offset certificates, digital badges, and leaderboards, which allow businesses to transparently showcase their sustainability efforts to their customers. A key feature of the platform is its ability to integrate with e-commerce sites, enabling carbon offsetting at the point of sale.
Meta Carbon uses the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to record every transaction, measurement, and retirement of carbon credits on the public ledger. This provides a high level of transparency and trust, as all data is immutable and auditable.
