SEALSQ is a Swiss-based semiconductor company that specialises in developing secure microcontrollers and implementing post-quantum cryptography. A subsidiary of WISeKey, SEALSQ provides the hardware foundation for securing connected devices in a wide array of industries, including smart energy, automotive, industrial automation, and consumer electronics.
SEALSQ’s product portfolio is centred on providing end-to-end digital security. This includes the VaultIC family of secure elements, which are tamper-resistant microcontrollers offering cryptographic services for authentication and data integrity. They also develop secure ARM platforms and are pioneering post-quantum RISC-V chips to protect against future threats from quantum computing. Beyond the chips themselves, SEALSQ provides Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and provisioning services, allowing for the secure management of a device’s digital identity throughout its lifecycle.
SEALSQ is partnered with Hedera to integrate its quantum-resistant semiconductors directly into the Hedera network's infrastructure. This partnership aims to protect the Hedera ecosystem from the emerging threat of quantum computing by "future-proofing" digital signatures and communication channels. Specifically, SEALSQ's hardware will be used in the SEALCOIN project, a tokenised platform for machine-to-machine (M2M) transactions on Hedera, which is a core component of the DePIN (Decentralised Physical Infrastructure Network) being developed by WISeKey and its subsidiaries.

Sayl Cloud is an all-in-one marketing, commerce, and loyalty platform designed primarily for businesses in the hospitality and retail sectors. The company provides independent restaurants, hotels, and retailers with a powerful suite of tools to increase direct sales, own their customer relationships, and reduce their reliance on third-party aggregators that charge high commissions. Sayl’s platform integrates functionalities like online ordering, table reservations, customer relationship management (CRM), and marketing automation into a single, cohesive system.
A key innovation for Sayl Cloud is its integration with the Hedera network to offer next-generation, Web3-powered loyalty programs. Through this integration, businesses can easily create their own branded tokens and NFTs on Hedera, transforming traditional points-based rewards into engaging digital assets. Customers can earn these tokens for their purchases and other interactions, and then redeem them for exclusive perks, creating a more dynamic and gamified experience. Supported by The HBAR Foundation, Sayl leverages Hedera's fast, secure, and low-cost ledger to make these "Loyalty 3.0" programs feasible for its clients.
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.
Mawari is a technology company focused on building infrastructure for the 3D internet and spatial computing. It primary work is in developing a decentralized network to power the real-time streaming of immersive, AI-driven 3D experiences with near-zero latency.
The core of Mawari's offering is its Decentralized Content Delivery Network (CDN), a globally distributed network of GPU-powered nodes. This network, combined with Mawari's patented 3D streaming codec and a spatial rendering and streaming SDK, allows for the efficient cloud rendering and delivery of complex 3D content to a wide range of devices, including smartphones and XR glasses. This technology is designed to break the bottlenecks of traditional infrastructure, making high-quality, interactive AR and VR experiences scalable and accessible. The network is built on a Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) model, which incentivizes individuals to contribute their unused compute resources.
As a participant in the Hedera ecosystem, Mawari is exploring how Hedera's fast, secure, and sustainable distributed ledger technology can be integrated into its decentralized infrastructure to enhance the security, transparency, and efficiency of its network, particularly as it expands its reach in the burgeoning spatial computing and 3D internet markets.
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.
