Blockchain in Healthcare Today (BHTY) is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to the topic of blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT) in the healthcare sector. Published by Partners in Digital Health, BHTY serves as a leading international open-access platform for disseminating research and innovations in this rapidly evolving field. The journal's mission is to foster a global, multi-disciplinary ecosystem by accelerating the sharing of rigorously vetted knowledge on topics such as health information systems, data integrity, supply chain management, and clinical trials.
The journal's primary service is the publication of original research, systematic reviews, and special reports from academics, innovators, and practitioners. BHTY covers a wide range of subjects, including the integration of AI, consent mechanisms, privacy preservation, and new value-based health economic models. In addition to its publishing activities, BHTY produces the annual ConV2X conference, an event that brings together industry leaders to discuss the latest advancements in healthcare platforms and decentralised technology.
A key technological feature of Blockchain in Healthcare Today is its direct integration with the Hedera network. The journal offers an "Article Proof of Origin" service, which creates a permanent and immutable public record of every published research article.
SEALSQ is a Swiss-based semiconductor company that specialises in developing secure microcontrollers and implementing post-quantum cryptography. A subsidiary of WISeKey, SEALSQ provides the hardware foundation for securing connected devices in a wide array of industries, including smart energy, automotive, industrial automation, and consumer electronics.
SEALSQ’s product portfolio is centred on providing end-to-end digital security. This includes the VaultIC family of secure elements, which are tamper-resistant microcontrollers offering cryptographic services for authentication and data integrity. They also develop secure ARM platforms and are pioneering post-quantum RISC-V chips to protect against future threats from quantum computing. Beyond the chips themselves, SEALSQ provides Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and provisioning services, allowing for the secure management of a device’s digital identity throughout its lifecycle.
SEALSQ is partnered with Hedera to integrate its quantum-resistant semiconductors directly into the Hedera network's infrastructure. This partnership aims to protect the Hedera ecosystem from the emerging threat of quantum computing by "future-proofing" digital signatures and communication channels. Specifically, SEALSQ's hardware will be used in the SEALCOIN project, a tokenised platform for machine-to-machine (M2M) transactions on Hedera, which is a core component of the DePIN (Decentralised Physical Infrastructure Network) being developed by WISeKey and its subsidiaries.

GetEnergy is a green fintech company operating a B2B distribution platform for renewable electricity. The company’s core mission is to create a smart and cost-efficient marketplace that connects renewable energy generators directly with suppliers and consumers.
The platform functions by acquiring electricity from renewable generators through Power Purchase Agreements. The acquired electricity is then digitized, or "tokenized," on the company's proprietary platform, where each token represents 1 kWh of energy. This process utilizes proven Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and smart contracts to facilitate the sale and settlement of energy transactions. This DLT-based approach aims to reduce electricity costs by removing traditional intermediaries from the value chain.
Key features of the GetEnergy platform include providing users with “fully traceable green certificates" and guaranteeing transparency and faster settlement times for all transactions. The platform also incorporates advanced AI and machine learning models for forecasting services to optimize energy load and imbalance management.
Magic is a Wallet-as-a-Service (WaaS) platform that provides developers with tools to streamline user onboarding for decentralized applications, including those built on the Hedera network. The platform's core offering is an SDK that enables seamless authentication and the instant creation of non-custodial wallets for end-users, bypassing many of the traditional complexities of Web3.
For the Hedera ecosystem, Magic allows dApp developers to offer familiar Web2 login methods, such as email or social accounts, instead of requiring users to manage seed phrases or install separate browser-extension wallets. When a user logs into a Magic-enabled Hedera dApp, a secure, Hedera-compatible wallet is automatically generated for them in the background. This wallet is fully capable of interacting with the Hedera network, allowing the user to sign transactions, manage HBAR and HTS tokens, and engage with smart contracts.
The underlying technology uses a delegated key management system, where private keys are encrypted and stored in secure hardware modules, ensuring users retain full control and ownership of their assets without the burden of direct key management.
