The Hedera Wallet Snap is a powerful open-source plugin that extends the functionality of MetaMask, one of the world's most popular crypto wallets, to the Hedera network. Developed by Tuum Technologies and managed by Hashgraph, the Snap allows users and developers to interact directly with Hedera's native services without relying on a JSON-RPC relay.
At its core, the Hedera Wallet Snap transforms MetaMask into a native Hedera wallet. This provides users with a familiar interface to manage their HBAR and other Hedera-based assets. Key services include the ability to send and receive HBAR, view account information and token balances, and interact with the Hedera Token Service (HTS), Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), and Hedera Smart Contract Service (HSCS). This comprehensive functionality empowers developers to build and deploy sophisticated decentralized applications on Hedera, while providing a seamless and intuitive experience for end-users.
The integration of the Hedera Wallet Snap opens up the network to MetaMask's vast user base of over 30 million monthly active users, greatly expanding the potential reach of Hedera-based applications.

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.
Noviqtech is technology firm focused on carbon accounting and supply chain transparency. The company's product offerings include “Carbon Central” and “Noviq AI.” Carbon Central is focused on managing and centralizing carbon-related data and accounting processes for businesses. Similarly, Noviq AI offers exceptional end-to-end transparency and confirmation of product authenticity and processes throughout the entire value chain through the use of artificial intelligence within the firm's service portfolio, thus enhancing data processing, analytics, and decision-making capabilities for core services.
Its platform relies on three key service pillars. The first pillar, “guarantee of origin,” seeks to prove the origin of green resource production in order to highlight sustainability by tracking and tokenizing green hydrogen, sustainable aviation fuel, biodiesel, biochar, and related assets while aligning with industry standards and methodologies. The second, “carbon reporting,” allows users to measure, manage, and tokenise project assets and to effortlessly report and track carbon reduction and avoidance. This allows users unlock revenue opportunities through carbon tokenisation. The third pillar, “supply chain traceability,” allows users to track products throughout their lifecycle, ensuring authenticity and building client trust by highlighting supply chain transparency and demonstrating sustainable and ethical practices.

Medical Value Chain (MVC) is a Bahrain-based subsidiary of AVC Global. It provides a track-and-trace platform for pharmaceutical supply chains to ensure regulatory compliance and combat counterfeit drugs. MVC's innovative financial model is funded by the pharmaceutical industry, meaning there is no cost to governments or citizens.
MVC's core product is the SmartPass, a platform built on a dual-blockchain architecture that integrates with GS1 global serialisation standards. This technology creates a transparent and immutable record of pharmaceutical products as they move through the supply chain, from manufacturer to consumer. SmartPass is designed to provide "absolute transparency," protecting against counterfeit medications, improving supply chain efficiency, and reducing fraud. A key component of this system is the OneScan feature, which allows for the verification of product authenticity.
The company utilises the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a verifiable and auditable log of all supply chain events. This "dual immutable distributed ledger technology" provides a high level of security and transparency, ensuring the integrity of the data.
