Quarter Homes is a real estate technology company that modernizes vacation home ownership through a fractional, co-ownership model. It aims to make owning a second home more accessible and affordable by allowing up to four parties to collectively purchase and own a property. Quarter Homes manages the entire lifecycle of the property, including all legal, financial, and property management complexities, to provide a seamless, hassle-free experience.
The company’s innovative model incorporates the Hedera blockchain network, which underpins its operational framework. For each property, a unique LLC is established, and the legal ownership interest is divided into fractions represented as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Hedera Token Service (HTS). This provides each owner with a verifiable, digital proof of ownership.
Quarter Homes leverages the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a transparent and immutable log of all activities associated with the property. This includes governance, maintenance activities and scheduling, ensuring all parties have a trusted and shared view of the property's status and history.

Stader Labs is a multi-chain liquid staking platform that provides a secure and efficient way to earn staking rewards while maintaining asset liquidity. It was launched in 2021 and has since extended its services across several major blockchain networks, including Hedera where it offers a liquid staking solution centered around the HBARX token.
When users stake HBAR tokens through Stader's platform, they receive HBARX, a liquid token representing their staked HBAR. This mechanism allows HBAR holders to continue participating in the DeFi ecosystem with HBARX, engaging with protocols including SaucerSwap and HeliSwap for additional yield opportunities, while still accruing staking rewards. The HBARX token is designed to increase in value relative to HBAR as staking rewards accumulate in the pool, with an auto-compounding feature managed at the smart contract level.
Stader Labs emphasizes security, subjecting its smart contracts to multiple third-party audits from firms such as Halborn, Peckshield, and Sigma Prime. The platform's architecture on Hedera aims to contribute to network decentralization by distributing staked HBAR across various nodes.
WiCoin is a stablecoin launched by WiPay, a financial technology company with offices in Africa, the Caribbean, Columbia, and the US. It was launched to address the challenges of cross-border remittance and financial exclusion in its operational regions. It was built on the Hedera network utilizing the Hedera Token Service (HTS) and Hedera Smart Contract Service (HSCS) and is pegged to the US dollar.
It forms the backbone of the WiCoin Settlement Network, designed to create a unified system for transactions across numerous Caribbean islands, each with its own currency. It also extends into African markets and currencies.
The primary goal of WiCoin is to "bank the bankless" by providing an accessible and efficient means for cross-border payments and settlements by leveraging Hedera's fast transaction speeds, low and predictable fees, and robust security through its asynchronous byzantine fault tolerance (ABFT).
WiPay is supported by the Hedera HBAR foundation and seeks to enhance financial inclusion and streamline economic activity in underserved regions by providing a locally-accessible bridge between traditional banking services and low-cost, speedy digital transactions.

Momental is a Web3 platform specializing in creating dynamic, data-driven digital collectibles, described as "Living NFTs." The company partners with sports teams, athletes, and brands to transform key moments into evolving digital assets. Unlike static NFTs, Momental’s collectibles are designed to change their appearance and metadata over time based on real-world events and data streams.
The platform is built on the Hedera network, utilizing its unique capabilities to power these dynamic assets. For example, a digital trading card of an athlete, minted as an NFT on the Hedera Token Service (HTS), can automatically update to reflect their latest game statistics, career achievements, or even video highlights. The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is used to ingest and provide a transparent, tamper-proof record of the real-world data feeds that trigger these updates. This ensures the authenticity and verifiable history of each change to the "Living NFT."
Through partnerships with organizations such as the SSU rugby team in South Africa, Momental provides a novel way for fans to own a piece of their favorite team's journey.
