About Hedera
Hedera (HBAR) is a public network that uses 'hashgraph' consensus rather than a traditional blockchain, aiming for very fast, low-cost and energy-efficient transactions. It is governed by a council of large global organisations, which distinguishes it from more decentralised, community-run networks and appeals to enterprise use cases such as payments, tokenisation and supply-chain tracking. Its native token, HBAR, pays for transactions and network services and can be staked. Hedera positions itself as enterprise-grade infrastructure. HBAR is a high-risk, volatile cryptocurrency whose value depends on real-world adoption of the Hedera network.
