Logstash is an open-source, server-side data processing pipeline from Elastic NV. It ingests data from multiple sources simultaneously, transforms it, and then sends it to a chosen destination. It is a core component of the Elastic Stack, often used for centralizing and processing logs, metrics, and other event data.
In the context of the Hedera blockchain network, Logstash can be integrated using tools such as the logstash-output-hedera plugin. This specific Java Output Plugin is designed for the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). It enables Logstash to send processed events or logs directly to an HCS topic. Users configure the plugin by specifying details including their HCS topic ID, an operator account ID, and the associated private key for that operator account. An optional submit key used for topic creation can also be provided, along with the target Hedera network, which can be "mainnet" or "testnet".
By using this plugin, applications can leverage Logstash's data collection and transformation capabilities to then record events onto the Hedera public ledger via HCS. This creates an immutable, verifiable, and timestamped log of the data, enhancing transparency and auditability for any system employing this integration.

KwikPik is a Web3-based on-demand delivery and services platform built on the Hedera blockchain network primarily focused on burgeoning markets in Africa and the Middle East. It was founded in Nigeria in 2022 to address a critical gap in reliable, efficient on-demand services, particularly in less densely populated regions.
The platform offers a comprehensive suite of services including swift package delivery, convenient grocery and food ordering, direct sourcing of fresh farm produce, and accessible ride-hailing. At its core, KwikPik deeply integrates Hedera technology and employs the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create auditable, immutable logs for tracking driver journeys, significantly bolstering transparency, reducing fraud, and providing verifiable data for carbon emissions tracking for ESG reporting.
KwikPik’s native stablecoin, $KPL, is built upon the Hedera Token Service (HTS). This facilitates exceptionally low-cost, real-time in-app payments and provides users with intuitive, non-custodial Web3 wallets, simplifying their entry into the digital economy. This allows KwikPik to operate as an efficient decentralized physical infrastructure Network (DePIN), designed to deliver reliable, secure, and scalable services, thereby fostering financial inclusion, expanding market access for local businesses, and generating employment opportunities across its operational areas.
Gaimin is a Swiss-based company founded in 2018. Its vision is to create the world's most powerful decentralised supercomputer by harnessing the collective power of the gaming community.
Gaimin's core product is a free-to-download PC application that runs in the background, detecting when a user's computer is idle and then utilizing its processing power for various tasks, such as AI model training, video rendering, and blockchain computations. In return for contributing their resources, gamers are rewarded with Gaimin's native cryptocurrency, GMRX. This creates a passive income stream for gamers and provides a cost-effective solution for businesses in need of high-performance computing. The Gaimin platform also serves as a game launcher and a hub for Web3 gaming, with an integrated marketplace for NFTs and other digital assets.
Gaimin uses the Hedera network to tokenise in-game assets as NFTs, allowing players to have true ownership of their digital items. One of the first games to be integrated with this system is a version of Minecraft called Gaimcraft, where users can create NFTs that are interoperable between the Gaimin marketplace and their Minecraft inventory.
The IBM Blockchain Platform was a short-term funding and technology project involving the Hedera blockchain network. While this specific project has evolved into an ongoing enterprise blockchain strategy, IBM remains intrinsically involved with the Hedera network as a member of the Hedera Governing Council.
This position provides IBM with a direct voice and vote in the governance of the Hedera public network, influencing its technical roadmap, policies, and overall strategic direction. As a council member, IBM also contributes to the network's operational integrity by running a consensus node.
This engagement with Hedera allows IBM to participate, offer insights and contribute to advancements which align with its broader interests in advancing enterprise-grade distributed ledger solutions (DLT). This involvement complements IBM's extensive work with permissioned blockchains and strengthens the partnership between Hedera and the broader technology industry while providing a holistic perspective on the evolving blockchain landscape for IBM’s global enterprise clients.
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.
