Inara World is a publishing platform that is working to create a new, tokenized economy for ebooks. Its focus is on solving the revenue and engagement challenges that authors face in the traditional publishing market.
The core of Inara's service is its "Streaming Ebooks" platform. This innovative model allows readers to pay for what they read, one page at a time, through a system of micropayments. This eliminates the need for readers to purchase an entire book upfront or to subscribe to a service. For authors, the platform provides a direct and transparent revenue stream, where they are paid for every page that is read.
The entire Inara World platform is built on the Hedera network. This integration is fundamental to the platform's ability to process a high volume of micropayments in a fast, secure, and cost-effective manner. By using Hedera, Inara provides a seamless and scalable solution for its tokenized ebook economy, creating a more equitable and engaging experience for both authors and readers.

Tejouri is a highly secure digital vault platform designed for the storage and management of sensitive personal and corporate documents. Launched by Moro Hub, a subsidiary of Digital DEWA (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority), Tejouri provides a trusted environment for users to safeguard their most vital information, including passports, financial records, contracts, and health data. The platform combines secure, UAE-based data centers with the transparent trust layer of a public distributed ledger.
The core of Tejouri’s advanced security model is its integration with the Hedera blockchain network. While the actual documents are stored securely off-chain, every critical action performed within the vault, such as uploading a file, sharing a document, or executing a digital signature, is recorded on the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). This process creates an immutable and publicly verifiable audit trail. A cryptographic fingerprint (hash) of the event is logged on the Hedera ledger, providing a permanent, tamper-proof timestamp and record of the transaction.
Porini Foundation Nature Collectibles is an initiative by the Swiss-based Porini Foundation that leverages blockchain technology to create a sustainable funding model for nature conservation. The project aims to connect a global community of collectors with real-world conservation efforts, providing a transparent and direct way to support the protection of endangered species and their habitats.
At the core of the initiative are Nature Collectibles, which are unique digital representations of a species, also known as NFTs for Conservation (NFTCs). Each collectible is a "digital twin" of a real animal and is linked to a specific, on-the-ground conservation project in a protected area. These digital assets can be purchased, collected, and traded through a dedicated mobile app. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the initial sale of a Nature Collectible go directly to the conservation actors in the field, with the Porini Foundation covering all transaction fees.
The entire Nature Collectibles ecosystem is built on the Hedera network. The Hedera Token Service (HTS) is used to mint the NFTs, ensuring their uniqueness and providing a secure and transparent record of ownership. All transactions are recorded on the Hedera public ledger, allowing donors to see their contributions in real-time.
The Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) is a cross-industry community founded in 2019 by Adobe, The New York Times, and Twitter to combat digital misinformation and provide a verifiable layer of trust for online content. With a rapidly growing membership of over 4,000, the CAI brings together technology companies, media organizations, and civil society to develop open-source tools and standards that promote transparency and give creators credit for their work.
The primary service of the CAI is the development and promotion of Content Credentials, an open-source technology that functions like a "nutrition label" for digital media. This system allows creators to attach secure, tamper-evident metadata to their content, creating a verifiable record of its origin, authorship, and edit history. This provenance data is cryptographically signed and remains with the content as it is shared and modified. The technical specifications for Content Credentials are developed by the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA), a standards development organization co-founded by Adobe.
EtaSwap is the first decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator on the Hedera network. Its primary purpose is to consolidate liquidity from various decentralized exchanges within the Hedera ecosystem into a unified interface. This allows users to trade Hedera-based digital assets more efficiently, circumventing the need to navigate multiple platforms to find the best terms.
The platform functions by identifying the most advantageous prices and optimal trading routes across integrated DEXs for a given token swap. Key features include route optimization, direct integration with multiple Hedera DEXs, and a user-friendly interface designed to simplify the trading process. EtaSwap offers the potential for better execution rates and reduced slippage on their trades.
EtaSwap aggregates liquidity from prominent Hedera DEXs including SaucerSwap , Pangolin, HeliSwap, and HSuite. It serves as a single entry point for token swaps on Hedera, offering users seamless access to the combined liquidity of these platforms and is open to integrating additional exchanges.
