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.

The Coupon Bureau is a non-profit, industry-managed organization established to modernize the coupon industry by creating a centralized data exchange for all stakeholders. The organization's primary mission is to combat coupon fraud, an issue estimated to cost the industry hundreds of millions of dollars annually, while also improving efficiency and the consumer experience.
At the heart of The Coupon Bureau's work is the development and implementation of the new Universal Coupon standard, also known as AI (8112). This new standard replaces the outdated barcode system with a more secure, serialized format for both digital and paper coupons. This allows for real-time validation of every coupon at the point of sale, effectively eliminating counterfeiting and ensuring that each coupon is used only once, as intended by the manufacturer. The platform, known as the Universal Positive Offer File, serves as this central repository for all coupon data, connecting manufacturers, retailers, and consumers in a seamless ecosystem.
The Coupon Bureau utilizes the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a tamper-proof, auditable log of every coupon's lifecycle. Each time a coupon is created, distributed, or redeemed, a transaction is recorded on the Hedera public ledger.

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.
