Hedera

About

Hedera is a public distributed ledger platform that utilizes hashgraph consensus technology rather than a traditional blockchain to provide high-throughput, low-latency, and secure transaction processing. Governed by a global council of multinational corporations, non-profits, and academic institutions, the network provides decentralized infrastructure for decentralized finance, digital identity, enterprise artificial intelligence, and real-world asset tokenization. Its native cryptocurrency, HBAR, powers network operations by paying fixed USD-equivalent service fees for smart contracts, consensus logging, and token transfers while securing the network through a proof-of-stake mechanism.
