Turtle Moon is a Web3 software development and solutions company that functions as a core infrastructure builder for the Hedera ecosystem. It focuses on creating open-source tools, services, and standards that empower developers and accelerate the growth of decentralized applications on the Hedera network.
One of Turtle Moon's most significant contributions is the creation of the HCS-20 standard, a framework for issuing and managing fungible tokens using the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS). This standard provided an efficient, low-cost alternative to smart contracts for tokenization. They have also developed and open-sourced a suite of "Turtle Moon Tools" for NFT minting and management, making it easier for creators to launch projects on the network.
Beyond infrastructure, Turtle Moon is an active participant in the Hedera community, closely associated with leading the technical development for projects like HGraph Punks. By developing foundational protocols, open-sourcing their tools, and building applications, Turtle Moon plays a vital role in making the Hedera network more accessible, functional, and robust for developers and users alike.

Mynt Music is a Web3 platform designed to address the challenges artists face with traditional streaming services, such as low revenue and a lack of direct engagement with fans. By leveraging blockchain technology, Mynt provides artists with the tools to take greater control over their work and monetization.
The core of the Mynt platform is built on the Hedera network. This allows artists to mint their music, artwork, and other exclusive content as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Hedera Token Service (HTS). In addition to NFTs, artists can create and issue their own unique, fungible "Fan Tokens." These tokens function as a digital key to an artist's community, granting holders access to exclusive content, unreleased tracks, private channels, and unique real-world experiences. This model transforms passive listeners into active stakeholders in an artist's career.
By building on Hedera, Mynt benefits from the network's high speed, sustainability, and low, predictable transaction fees, which are essential for processing the high volume of micro-transactions involved in a thriving fan economy.
