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.

Danae is a digital art company that provides a platform for contemporary art within the Web3 space. Its primary focus is on curating and presenting high-quality digital artworks from established artists and galleries, merging traditional art world practices with new technologies.
The main service offered by Danae is its NFT marketplace, which facilitates the sale and authentication of contemporary art as non-fungible tokens. The platform's services include expert curation, ensuring that all works in its collection meet a standard of artistic excellence. A key feature is the use of blockchain technology to provide transparent and secure art authentication, making the provenance and ownership of a digital artwork easily verifiable. This allows collectors, galleries, and curators to connect and transact with a higher degree of confidence.
Danae's platform is multi-chain, with a direct integration with the Hedera network. The company utilises the Hedera Token Service (HTS) for the minting of its NFTs.
Edge is a US-based non-custodial cryptocurrency wallet provider that was founded in 2014. Its primary product, Edge Wallet, is a multi-asset mobile application that allows users to buy, sell, store, and trade a wide variety of cryptocurrencies.
Key services include in-app cryptocurrency purchases through various third-party providers, crypto-to-crypto swaps, and the ability to purchase gift cards with cryptocurrency. A distinguishing feature of Edge is its "zero-knowledge" security architecture, which means that the company has no access to user funds or data. The wallet uses a simple username and password system for account creation and backup, which is a more familiar experience for mainstream users compared to traditional seed phrases.
Edge has a direct integration with the Hedera network, providing full support for HBAR and other Hedera-based assets. This allows users to securely store and manage their HBAR within the Edge wallet. The integration is seamless, enabling users to easily send, receive, and trade HBAR alongside other major cryptocurrencies.
The Reptilian Secret Society is a "play-to-earn" NFT project and decentralized community built on the Hedera network. It’s centered around a fictional universe where a secret society of reptilian beings has infiltrated every aspect of human society.
The core of the project is its series of NFT collections, starting with the "Genesis" collection of 10,000 reptilian characters. These NFTs serve as both digital collectibles and membership tokens, granting holders access to "The Syndicate," the project's decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Ownership of these NFTs also provides access to various "play-to-earn" features, including the ability to stake NFTs to earn the project's native utility token. The ecosystem also includes a marketplace for trading the NFTs and a breeding mechanic that allows owners to create new "hybrid" NFTs.
The Reptilian Secret Society uses the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to mint all of its NFTs and fungible tokens, which ensures low, predictable transaction fees and fast, secure transfers.
