Transak is a global Web3 payment provider that builds developer-focused tools to bridge traditional finance with digital assets. The company’s core service is to enable users to seamlessly buy and sell cryptocurrencies directly within any decentralized application (dApp). This is primarily achieved through a simple, embeddable widget or API that developers can integrate into their platforms with just a few lines of code.
By handling the complex backend processes of payment processing, fraud monitoring, and regulatory compliance like KYC/AML, Transak solves a critical onboarding challenge for the Web3 ecosystem. It eliminates the need for users to leave a dApp, register on a centralized exchange, and manually transfer funds, which significantly reduces friction and improves user conversion rates. The platform supports a wide array of local payment methods across more than 150 countries, including credit/debit cards, bank transfers, and other regional options.
Transak is integrated with the Hedera network. This enables developers building on Hedera to provide their users with a direct and localized on-ramp to purchase HBAR and other Hedera-based tokens.

Liithos is a AAA gaming and entertainment studio founded by high-profile industry veterans, including former PlayStation executive Michael Mumbauer and John Garvin, the creative director and writer known for blockbuster titles including Days Gone and Syphon Filter. The studio develops narrative-driven, transmedia intellectual properties that merge compelling storytelling with the capabilities of Web3 technology.
The studio’s debut project is Ashfall, a post-apocalyptic open-world game set in the Pacific Northwest. It is designed to begin as a single-player, story-focused experience that will later evolve to include multiplayer PvP and PvE elements. Liithos has chosen the Hedera network as the foundational public ledger for Ashfall and its future projects. This integration will power the game's economy, allowing players to truly own their in-game assets—such as weapons, gear, and cosmetics—as digital collectibles.
Supported by The HBAR Foundation, Liithos emphasizes that its approach is not "play-to-earn" but "play-and-own," focusing on enhancing the core AAA gaming experience rather than financial speculation.

The Fugitives Club NFT is a collection of 1,912 unique digital collectibles minted on the Hedera Hashgraph network. Each "fugitive" character in the collection is algorithmically generated from multiple layers of distinct images and graphics, resulting in a visually unique NFT with its own identity. The project is recognized as an early entrant in the Hedera NFT space, with its initial minting event occurring in November 2021.
Beyond collectibility, The Fugitives Club is noted for its contribution to developer tooling within the Hedera ecosystem. The project team developed and made available a command-line interface (CLI) tool via GitHub, designed to facilitate the minting of NFTs using Hedera and the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) for decentralized storage. This indicates a broader engagement with the underlying technology.
The project features a cultivated community, with "clans" of fugitives and dedicated channels for engagement. The Fugitives Club represents one of the foundational NFT projects on Hedera, combining unique digital art with contributions to the developer community.
The Reptilian Secret Society is a "play-to-earn" NFT project and decentralized community built on the Hedera network. It’s centered around a fictional universe where a secret society of reptilian beings has infiltrated every aspect of human society.
The core of the project is its series of NFT collections, starting with the "Genesis" collection of 10,000 reptilian characters. These NFTs serve as both digital collectibles and membership tokens, granting holders access to "The Syndicate," the project's decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Ownership of these NFTs also provides access to various "play-to-earn" features, including the ability to stake NFTs to earn the project's native utility token. The ecosystem also includes a marketplace for trading the NFTs and a breeding mechanic that allows owners to create new "hybrid" NFTs.
The Reptilian Secret Society uses the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to mint all of its NFTs and fungible tokens, which ensures low, predictable transaction fees and fast, secure transfers.
