Metastable
MetaStable is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that aims to provide a secure, private, and compliant environment for trading synthetic assets. The company is focused on leveraging advanced cryptographic techniques to solve some of the key challenges in the DeFi space, such as high slippage, impermanent loss, and regulatory uncertainty.
The core of MetaStable's service is its Automated Market Maker (AMM), which is designed to facilitate the trading of synthetic assets with minimal price impact. A key feature of the platform is its use of Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), which allows for the verification of transactions without revealing the underlying data. This provides a high degree of privacy and confidentiality for users. The platform also includes a "DeFi Firewall," a proprietary technology that helps to ensure regulatory compliance by preventing illicit funds from entering the ecosystem.
MetaStable’s "chain-agnostic" design and support for EVM-compatible DLTs allows it be interoperable with various networks including the Hedera blockchain.

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.

Quarter Homes is a real estate technology company that modernizes vacation home ownership through a fractional, co-ownership model.
