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.

W3C Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs) are a new type of globally unique identifier designed to enable verifiable, decentralised digital identity. As a formal web standard published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the DID architecture is a foundational component for building a more secure and user-centric internet.
Unlike traditional identifiers such as email addresses or usernames, DIDs are not tied to any centralised registry or company. This means that individuals and organisations can create and control their own identifiers, giving them "self-sovereign" control over their digital identities. The core of the system is the DID Document, a JSON file that contains the cryptographic keys and service endpoints associated with a DID. This document is stored on a distributed ledger or other decentralised network, allowing for secure and verifiable interactions.
The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is used to create a tamper-proof and auditable log of all DID-related events, such as creation, updates, and revocation.

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.
