Utherverse is a metaverse platform that enables developers to build interconnected virtual worlds. Based in Vancouver, Canada, the company provides tools for creating hyper-realistic, immersive experiences for consumers and offers opportunities for businesses to market and monetize their products and services within these virtual environments.
Its core services are centered around its metaverse-as-a-service offering. This includes a proprietary Web3 browser and metaverse search engine called Xaeon, which allows users to navigate and explore the "Virtual World Web". The Utherverse ecosystem is designed to support a wide range of business verticals, from virtual retail and entertainment to education and corporate offices. A key feature is the platform's robust virtual economy, which has processed billions of transactions and is powered by the native token, UTHR.
The platform also supports the creation and trading of functional NFTs (fNFTs), which are digital assets with in-world utility. Utherverse has a direct integration with the Hedera network, which is a core component of its transition to a Web3 architecture.

HashAxis is a global NFT marketplace built on the Hedera network, designed for buying, selling, and discovering digital collectibles and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). It leverages the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to mint, manage, and trade NFTs and is supported by the HBAR foundation.
A key advantage of HashAxis is its utilization of Hedera's low and predictable transaction fees, high-speed performance (capable of 10,000 transactions per second), and carbon-negative footprint. This makes creating, buying, and selling NFTs comparatively more accessible and environmentally friendly. HashAxis also supports native Hedera functionalities including “atomic swaps” for secure peer-to-peer trading and on-chain royalty payments, which provide automatic compensation to creators for secondary sales.
HashAxis integrates “Filecoin” for decentralized NFT storage and is one of the only NFT marketplaces to offer a streamlined, no-code interface for users to engage with digital collectibles across various categories, including art, profile pictures and more.
