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.

AdsDax is a digital advertising platform founded in 2013 that aims to solve endemic problems in the advertising industry, such as fraud and a lack of transparency, by removing intermediaries and fostering direct, value-based connections between brands and consumers.
The core of AdsDax's service is a self-serve advertising platform that allows brands to create, buy, and sell advertising in a transparent environment. A key feature of their model is the use of incentivised experiences, where consumers are rewarded with digital assets for their engagement with advertising content. This approach, which leverages AI for campaign optimization, is designed to move beyond superficial metrics such as "likes" to drive authentic engagement and build brand loyalty. The platform supports a variety of ad formats, including interactive and video ads, and is utilised by major advertising agencies.
AdsDax uses the Hedera Consensus Service to track and verify millions of advertising events such as impressions, clicks, and conversions in real-time. Each event is recorded on the Hedera public ledger, creating an immutable and auditable trail that provides a single source of truth for advertisers and publishers. This allows for the automated and near-instantaneous settlement of payments to publishers and rewards to consumers using cryptocurrencies.
IOWNME is a platform developed by IPrivata, a company focused on data privacy and digital rights. Its designed to provide individuals with a way to assert ownership and control over their personal data, particularly in the context of name, image, and likeness (NIL) rights for athletes.
The core of the IOWNME service is the platform’s Declaration Certificate, a legally-grounded digital certificate that establishes a root proof of authenticity for an individual's data. This certificate links the rights embedded in a patent to an individual's personal information, effectively transforming the enforcement of data privacy from a matter of privacy policy to one of property rights, intellectual property, and contract law. This provides a more robust and proactive framework for individuals to protect and monetize their personal brand and content.
The IOWNME platform is built on the Hedera network. IPrivata is working directly with the Hedera Foundation and Acoer, a DLT developer, to integrate the Declaration Certificate into the Hedera ecosystem.
