Diamond Standard creates a novel, investable, and tradeable asset class through the tokenization of real, investment-grade IGI (International Gemological Institute) and GIA (Gemological Institute of America) certified diamonds.
These commodities are investment products combining real diamonds with digital blockchain technology. They offer investors a standardized unit of diamonds in the form of “Coins” and “Bars.” These can be traded for liquidity or held as investments secured by both the physical commodity and the immutable Hedera blockchain.
Each Coin and Bar contain an equivalent, optimized set of natural diamonds that add up to the same geological scarcity of carat weight, color, and clarity. Every sample and every commodity are public, and are designed to trade in lockstep market price.
Inside each asset is a military-grade wireless (NFC) encryption chip, enabling authentication, instant transactions, and remote audit.
Diamond Standard seeks to provide investors with a secure and accessible way to invest in diamonds at convenient, lower entry point via digital tokens called “Carats” issued from physical commodities.

Lazy Superheroes is a play-to-earn (P2E) idle game built on the Hedera network, centered around a collection of unique superhero non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The project combines digital ownership with passive gameplay, allowing players to earn rewards without requiring constant, active participation. To engage with the game, a player must first own a Lazy Superhero NFT, which serves as their primary in-game character.
The core gameplay loop involves sending superhero NFTs on missions. Missions are time-based and, once initiated, they run passively in the background. Upon successful completion, players are rewarded with $LAZY, the game's native utility token. This token is central to the game’s economy and progression system. Players can then use their earned $LAZY to train their superheroes, which improves their stats and attributes. Upgrading a hero increases its effectiveness, allowing it to undertake more challenging missions and generate greater rewards in the future.
This cycle of sending heroes on missions, earning $LAZY, and reinvesting it into training forms a strategic loop that encourages long-term engagement. The entire ecosystem, from the superhero NFTs to the $LAZY token and the mission transactions, is built and managed on the Hedera network.
