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.

Evercity is a Berlin-based company that was founded in 2018. It streamlines and automates the issuance of sustainable finance instruments. The company's primary goal is to make green finance more accessible, transparent, and cost-effective, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Its core offering is a green debt and carbon origination platform, a SaaS solution that automates the entire lifecycle of sustainable finance, from structuring and issuance to monitoring and reporting.
The platform integrates with IoT and satellite technology to collect real-world data, which is used to verify the performance of green projects and prevent "greenwashing." A key feature is the ability to issue fully traceable digital assets, including carbon credits and sustainability-linked bonds.
Evercity's platform leverages Hedera Guardian to create a verifiable and immutable record of a project's environmental impact, from initial funding to the final reporting of outcomes, in order to provide trust and transparency to the sustainable finance market.
Capture, by Numbers Protocol, is a Web3 camera application designed to combat digital fraud and establish verifiable provenance for photos and videos. It functions as the primary creation tool for the Numbers Protocol network, allowing users to generate digital media that is authentic, traceable, and secure from the moment of creation. The app is targeted at content creators, photographers, journalists, and anyone concerned with the integrity and ownership of their digital work in an age of AI-driven misinformation.
When a user takes a photo or records a video with the Capture App, it automatically embeds the content with rich, tamper-proof metadata. This includes critical information such as the creator's identity, a secure timestamp, and geolocation data. This entire package is then registered on a blockchain, creating an immutable "birth certificate" for the asset. This process adheres to the C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity) standard, ensuring a high degree of trust.
This "Capture-secured" content provides a clear and verifiable history that travels with the asset, allowing anyone to confirm its origin and view any subsequent edits. Furthermore, the app provides a seamless, one-click process for users to mint their verified content as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on various blockchains.
Pyth Network is a first-party financial oracle network that supplies extremely low-latency real-world price data across crypto, equities, forex, commodities, and ETFs. In February 2024 the Pyth catalog of over 400 price feeds was launched on Hedera via a partnership with the HBAR Foundation, giving developers permission-less access to real-time data and confidence intervals to improve DeFi risk management. HLiquity, a decentralized borrowing protocol on Hedera, became the first application to integrate these feeds to ensure accurate pricing and proper collateralization.
MetaStable is a decentralized finance (DeFi) platform that aims to provide a secure, private, and compliant environment for trading synthetic assets. The company is focused on leveraging advanced cryptographic techniques to solve some of the key challenges in the DeFi space, such as high slippage, impermanent loss, and regulatory uncertainty.
The core of MetaStable's service is its Automated Market Maker (AMM), which is designed to facilitate the trading of synthetic assets with minimal price impact. A key feature of the platform is its use of Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs), which allows for the verification of transactions without revealing the underlying data. This provides a high degree of privacy and confidentiality for users. The platform also includes a "DeFi Firewall," a proprietary technology that helps to ensure regulatory compliance by preventing illicit funds from entering the ecosystem.
MetaStable’s "chain-agnostic" design and support for EVM-compatible DLTs allows it be interoperable with various networks including the Hedera blockchain.
