The Aria Network is an integrated media company founded in 2018 and based in Los Angeles, California. Its focus is on creating immersive digital experiences that bridge the gap between physical and virtual assets. Aria works with global brands, sports leagues, and celebrities to develop new forms of engagement through augmented reality and other digital technologies.

‍

Aria's primary product is the Aria Exchange, a platform for non-fungible tokens (NFTs). A key feature of the exchange is the concept of "living NFTs," which allows creators to continuously add new content and value to a token after its initial purchase. The platform is designed to be carbon-negative, tracking the carbon footprint of each transaction and offsetting it through partnerships.

‍

The Aria Exchange is built with a direct and foundational connection to the Hedera network. Every NFT minted and traded on the Aria Exchange is securely stored on the Hedera distributed ledger. This integration provides an immutable and transparent record of ownership and transaction history for every digital asset.

The Coupon Bureau is a non-profit, industry-managed organization established to modernize the coupon industry by creating a centralized data exchange for all stakeholders. The organization's primary mission is to combat coupon fraud, an issue estimated to cost the industry hundreds of millions of dollars annually, while also improving efficiency and the consumer experience.

‍

At the heart of The Coupon Bureau's work is the development and implementation of the new Universal Coupon standard, also known as AI (8112). This new standard replaces the outdated barcode system with a more secure, serialized format for both digital and paper coupons. This allows for real-time validation of every coupon at the point of sale, effectively eliminating counterfeiting and ensuring that each coupon is used only once, as intended by the manufacturer. The platform, known as the Universal Positive Offer File, serves as this central repository for all coupon data, connecting manufacturers, retailers, and consumers in a seamless ecosystem.

‍

The Coupon Bureau utilizes the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a tamper-proof, auditable log of every coupon's lifecycle. Each time a coupon is created, distributed, or redeemed, a transaction is recorded on the Hedera public ledger.

SentX is the premier non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace and launchpad built on the Hedera network. It serves as a central hub for the Hedera non-fungible token NFT ecosystem, providing a comprehensive suite of tools for creators to launch projects and for collectors to discover, trade, and manage their digital assets. 

‍

For collectors, SentX offers a feature-rich marketplace with functionalities such as collection-based bidding, trait-specific offers, and bulk management tools that simplify the process of buying and selling NFTs. For creators, the platform’s "Dreamforge" launchpad provides a self-service solution to independently manage their own NFT drops. This includes advanced features such as customizable minting pages, dynamic pricing, whitelisting capabilities, and instant revenue settlement, all designed to empower artists and builders.

‍

The SentX ecosystem is further enhanced by its native utility token, $SENTX. Users are rewarded with $SENTX for activities on the platform, such as trading and minting. The token can then be used to acquire exclusive NFTs from a dedicated rewards store or to access other platform-specific perks.

Pyth Network is a first-party financial oracle network that supplies extremely low-latency real-world price data across crypto, equities, forex, commodities, and ETFs. In February 2024 the Pyth catalog of over 400 price feeds was launched on Hedera via a partnership with the HBAR Foundation, giving developers permission-less access to real-time data and confidence intervals to improve DeFi risk management. HLiquity, a decentralized borrowing protocol on Hedera, became the first application to integrate these feeds to ensure accurate pricing and proper collateralization.
