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.

Amplify World is the company behind Amplify.link, a Web3 platform designed to empower creators, brands, and communities to build their own decentralized loyalty and engagement ecosystems. Moving beyond traditional "link-in-bio" services, Amplify.link provides a suite of no-code tools that allow users to launch their own branded digital assets and rewards marketplaces. 

‍

Built on the Hedera network, Amplify.link leverages the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to allow any creator to easily mint their own fungible or non-fungible tokens. These tokens function as loyalty points that fans can earn by completing specific tasks designed to drive engagement, called “Quests.” Community members can then spend their earned tokens in a custom rewards marketplace curated by the creator, which can offer exclusive content, merchandise, event access, or other unique perks.

‍

Amplify.link aims to shift the power dynamic in the creator economy by providing accessible and scalable infrastructure, giving creators direct control over their community engagement and monetization channels.

Yamgo is a UK-based wallet and rewards platform built on Hedera Hashgraph. It enables users to earn HBAR, NFTs, and tokens by watching videos, playing games, shopping, or completing surveys, while managing their assets in a secure self-custody wallet. Yamgo leverages Hedera’s consensus service for fast, low-cost, and carbon-negative transactions, and has generated over 1.9 billion transactions on the network.

‍

It also supports native HBAR staking, including through Ledger hardware wallets, and provides an API for brands and developers to onboard into Hedera. Backed by the HBAR Foundation, Yamgo is a key consumer gateway driving adoption of the Hedera ecosystem.

Arkhia is an enterprise-grade Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) provider founded in 2022. It was established to bridge the gap between shared public network resources, which can be limited, and the complex, resource-intensive private infrastructure that large-scale applications require.

‍

Arkhia's services are specifically tailored for the Hedera network. The platform offers a suite of tools designed to streamline the development process, including dedicated RPC services, a powerful REST API for interacting with the Hedera Mirror Node, and specialized tools like Watchtower for real-time data streaming and WorkBench for analyzing on-chain data. By offering a high-availability, low-latency environment, Arkhia enables developers to focus on building their applications without the operational overhead of managing their own infrastructure.

‍

The connection between Arkhia and Hedera is fundamental; Arkhia's entire platform is built to support and enhance development on the Hedera public ledger. Leveraging a partnership with Google Cloud, Arkhia provides enterprise-level reliability and performance, ensuring that applications built on its infrastructure can scale to meet high demand.
