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.

Dead Pixels Ghost Club (DPGC) is a community-focused non-fungible token (NFT) project built on the Hedera blockchain network. It features distinct hand-crafted pixel art consisting of 10,000 unique "ghost" NFTs which are released to the public in phased drops.
The DPGC platform leverages the energy-efficient and low-fee Hedera blockchain network for minting and trading its collectible NFTs. The project actively fosters interaction among its members through various events, including creative contests and story-writing competitions, encouraging holders to develop narratives for their ghostly collectibles.
DPGC collectibles are available on secondary Hedera-based marketplaces including SentX allowing users to further engage in expanded community showcases. The project has also inspired tools such as the "Dead Pixel Ghost Tab," a Chrome extension that displays a random ghost NFT with every new browser tab.
Rather than gaming or competition, the focus of Dead Pixels Ghost Club is on its art, collectibility, and community “spirit.”
Tradegames is a play-to-earn (P2E) trading simulation game built on the Hedera network, designed to offer a competitive and risk-free environment for users to test their trading skills. The platform allows players to build fantasy portfolios using real-world stock market data and compete against others to see who can achieve the highest portfolio growth over a set period.
To participate in the competitions, users are required to own a "Vault" NFT. These non-fungible tokens (NFTs), minted on Hedera, serve as a player's entry ticket into the game's reward-based tournaments. Winners of these competitions are rewarded with $TG, the platform's native utility token. The $TG token can then be used within the ecosystem to enter exclusive games or for other platform-related activities, creating a self-sustaining game economy.
Developed with support from LimeChain, the platform leverages the Hedera network for its core functions. Both the Vault NFTs and the $TG utility token are Hedera-based. By simulating crypto and stock trading without requiring players to risk actual capital, Tradegames provides an accessible and educational entry point into the world of financial trading, all within a Web3 gaming framework.
Capturiant, founded in 2022, is a Houston-based company that operates as a global environmental asset authenticator, registry, and marketplace. The company's mission is to bring efficiency, transparency, and trust to the historically opaque and fragmented environmental asset markets, including carbon credits.
The core of Capturiant's service is an integrated platform that manages the entire lifecycle of environmental assets. This includes the authentication and validation of projects that generate credits, the minting and registration of these credits on a digital registry, and a regulated exchange for trading them. By creating a transparent, private-sector-driven model with clear fee structures and robust standards, Capturiant aims to increase confidence and liquidity in the market.
Capturiant's entire platform is built on the Hedera network. The company utilizes Hedera's distributed ledger technology (DLT) to create an immutable and auditable record for every environmental asset it registers. By leveraging the Hedera Consensus Service, Capturiant ensures the integrity and transparency of all transactions, from the minting of a credit to its final retirement.
