Stader Labs is a multi-chain liquid staking platform that provides a secure and efficient way to earn staking rewards while maintaining asset liquidity. It was launched in 2021 and has since extended its services across several major blockchain networks, including Hedera where it offers a liquid staking solution centered around the HBARX token.
When users stake HBAR tokens through Stader's platform, they receive HBARX, a liquid token representing their staked HBAR. This mechanism allows HBAR holders to continue participating in the DeFi ecosystem with HBARX, engaging with protocols including SaucerSwap and HeliSwap for additional yield opportunities, while still accruing staking rewards. The HBARX token is designed to increase in value relative to HBAR as staking rewards accumulate in the pool, with an auto-compounding feature managed at the smart contract level.
Stader Labs emphasizes security, subjecting its smart contracts to multiple third-party audits from firms such as Halborn, Peckshield, and Sigma Prime. The platform's architecture on Hedera aims to contribute to network decentralization by distributing staked HBAR across various nodes.

Neuron is a London-based company founded in 2019 that is building decentralised infrastructure for machine-to-machine (M2M) commerce. The company's vision is to create a secure and transparent ecosystem where autonomous devices, such as drones and AI agents, can directly discover, connect, and transact with each other without the need for centralised intermediaries.
Neuron's core product is a decentralised service network (DSN). This infrastructure includes a lightweight software development kit (SDK) that allows any machine, from a cloud server to a low-power device, to be onboarded as a "node." The platform also features an Explorer for nodes to discover each other, a Validator network to enforce service level agreements and machine reputation, and a system for automated, token-based payments. A primary use case is 4DSKY, a decentralized air traffic management system for drones, which has been successfully trialed with the UK government.
Neuron's entire platform is built on the Hedera network. It utilises Hedera's fast, secure, and low-cost distributed ledger technology as the foundational trust layer for its DSN. Specifically, Neuron uses Hedera's Consensus and Token Services for several key functions: to log and timestamp flight data from drones, to enable secure M2M payments.
