Hyphen is a technology firm dedicated to quantifying the true value of natural capital in real-time through building trust and accountability within carbon markets. It endeavors to make carbon markets a consistently viable and transparent financial instrument.
Hyphen’s operations feature an advanced atmospheric-based digital monitoring, reporting, and verification (aMRV) solution. This system features proprietary aMRV software that precisely quantifies greenhouse gas (GHG) flux data using on-site scientific instrumentation such as Eddy Covariance Towers.
The Hyphen platform ensures security through its incorporation of digital ledger technology (DLT) on the Hedera blockchain network. It leverages Hedera's immutable ledger to create secure, auditable records for GHG data and the entire MRV lifecycle. This is crucial for ensuring the verifiability of environmental data, enhancing the integrity of carbon credits, and addressing historical challenges of opacity in carbon accounting.
Hyphen’s offerings, including geospatial GHG data streams and Enterprise dMRV solutions, primarily target project developers and global carbon offsetters. By integrating its scientific MRV approach with Hedera’s capabilities, Hyphen aims to deliver verified climate intelligence and to foster a global financial system that effectively supports sustainable practices.

Flowcarbon is a climate technology company focused on the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM). Its mission is to make carbon markets more transparent, liquid, and accessible, through the use of blockchain technologies, thereby accelerating the flow of capital directly to projects that reduce or remove carbon emissions from the atmosphere. The company addresses critical inefficiencies in the traditional carbon market, such as opaque pricing, high transaction costs, and limited access for smaller participants.
The core of Flowcarbon's model is the tokenization of high-quality, verified carbon credits. Each token represents a real-world, certified tonne of carbon offset. This process creates a transparent and immutable record of ownership and transactions, enabling credits to be traded efficiently on digital marketplaces. One of the company’s initial token concepts was the Goddess Nature Token (GNT), designed as a liquid asset backed by a bundle of nature-based carbon credits.
By creating a more functional and efficient market infrastructure, Flowcarbon aims to provide project developers with faster access to financing and better price discovery. For buyers, from large corporations to individuals, it offers a more direct and transparent way to purchase credits and offset their carbon footprint.

Identity Snap, developed by Tuum Technologies, is an open-source plugin that extends the functionality of MetaMask to include support for decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and verifiable credentials (VCs). This transforms MetaMask into a DID wallet, allowing users to manage their digital identities in a secure and self-sovereign manner.
The core of the Identity Snap service is its ability to create, manage, and verify DIDs and VCs directly within the MetaMask interface. It supports multiple DID methods, including did:pkh, did:key, and did:hedera, giving users a range of options for creating and controlling their digital identities. Key features include the ability to resolve DIDs to their corresponding DID documents, create and save VCs, and generate verifiable presentations (VPs) for sharing with other parties.
Identity Snap's did:hedera method allows users to anchor their digital identities on the Hedera public ledger, taking advantage of its high throughput, low fees, and robust security. The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is used to create a transparent and auditable record of all DID and VC events, ensuring the integrity and verifiability of the credentials.
