Seems like hedera is winning a lot of awards for various innovation categories. Yet nothing ever happens for adoption. How do these awards work? Curry political favor and win an award or is their any substance behind these
It has almost been 10 years since Dr. Leemon Baird presented at Harvard. It’s a presentation that definitely inspired thousands of people.
There has been significant developments with Hedera since that period of time and I believe that we all deserve an update.
Yes, we can all be critical about how Hedera navigated its journey to this moment of time, but it’s important to maintain perspective.
I believe that Dr. Leemon Baird can dial it back for the anxious community and present again in a format similar to Harvard. With just Leemon on stage sharing his updated views on Hashgraph technology and its potential with the right builders and management.
Who knows what would come of it if he did present his creation again to the world. I sure would like to see it.
anyone have that document that HBAR Bull did?
We are often so wrapped up in discussions about Tokenisation that we forget about some of the massive things happening (Kind of outside of the world of finance- although everything connects back to Finance in the end). Things for which Hedera is incredibly placed.
One (of several) is in the national management of Digital Identity. National Management of Identity is a sensitive issue for most countries. But lets look at the EU in particular because they actually have legislation coming in for eIDAS 2.0 due to roll out over the next two or three years.
Many countries in the EU (and beyond) currently use Hyperledger BESU to manage their ID systems, normally utilising a network of BESU Private servers (EBSI). But there is a problem (Hence the need for eIDAS 2.0). The problem is essentially this. Private Networks are great for ID management within a particular Government, but they fail (completely) when it comes to things like using a Government ID with external Businesses or in Cross Border situations. -eg. Where a French Business wants to check the ID Status of a German Citizen.
So, how does that impact Hedera?
Well. There are are a number of current situation factors worth noting at the moment.
The EU is currently pretty frustrated with the attitude of the current US administration. They are actively looking for ways to reduce dependence on US Tech and actually US anything at the moment.
Open Source. (The Linux Foundation). As I mentioned, most EU Countries already heavily leverage EBSI, a network of BESU servers for Identity Management. Their appetite for Open Source generally and Linux Foundation Software in particular is growing dramatically, partly because of point 1 above but also because Open Source frameworks are opening up a competitive opportunity for the EU that is not common elsewhere.
eIDAS 2.0 is, in part at least, a recognition that Agentic AI is coming and there is a need to cater for it within their systems. One of the issues with BESU is it will not handle the massive volume of Txns that any such system implemented across the EU will generate.
I would argue that Hedera is just about ready (Its integration into the numerous Linux Foundation tools such as Firefly, CACTI and Aries, is now deep and rich). The recent introduction of HEKA and with CLPR perhaps being the final piece of the puzzle (and we all know that as soon as Hashgraph has CLPR endpoints there will be a push for CLPR BESU endpoints). This means Hedera has an almost unrivalled set of integration points with the EU`s current main ID Platform (A platform they will NOT want to lose).
Now, obviously, its not a done deal. A quick and dirty solution to some of the key requirements of eIDAS 2.0 might be to simply add IAM (US Centric Identity Companies like MS or Ping) wrappers to current ID solutions. But this would be a VERY brittle solution that would not support the anticipated AI workloads. But given the EU`s increasing appetite for Open Source/Linux, their current heavy use of Hyperledger BESU (and its heavy integration into Hiero/Hedera) and the capacity of Hiero to handle AI plus the increasing readiness of Hiero for AI at every level, this looks like Hedera are extremely well positioned.
Just another potential avenue to success for Hedera to consider.
Most asset managers don't need to build blockchain infrastructure. They need a faster path to bringing financial products onchain.
With cSigma Atlas, institutions can tokenize:
→ Private Credit
→ Treasuries
→ Commodity-Linked Yield
→ Structured Finance
→ Custom Asset Strategies
Built on Hedera, Atlas provides the infrastructure to bring these strategies onchain without forcing asset managers to rebuild their existing workflows.
The underlying infrastructure has already supported $80M+ in tokenized assets across 10+ institutions.

Hi all,
I made a costly mistake and I'm hoping someone here can help, or that the account holder happens to see this post.
On August 16, 2026, I intended to send HBAR to my Newton exchange deposit address (0.0.9484900), but due to a typo, I instead sent it to 0.0.948900 a single-digit error.
Transaction details:
0.0.852317-1786922627-2202468510xd1d19f7aa99a086af8a8f72fca50de8339289daad2fd32a9efb2612c94eeb5adec627bc2fa785aead4ea3a5d974349d30.0.8523170.0.948900I've already sent a small transaction with a memo to that account asking the holder to please reach out or return the funds if possible. I understand blockchain transactions are irreversible and there's no guarantee.
If you are the holder of 0.0.948900, or you recognize this account, I'd really appreciate you reaching out. Thank you for reading.
There are new developments regarding the Genius Act, considered the second most important law regulating the cryptocurrency market in the US.
The U.S. Treasury Department has released a draft regulation containing key rules for enforcing the GENIUS Act, which regulates the stablecoin market. The proposed framework aims to clarify the conditions under which companies wishing to issue stablecoins in the U.S. will be required to obtain federal or state licenses, and the terms under which stablecoins issued abroad can be offered to U.S. users.
The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) published by the Treasury Department outlines the details of implementing Section 3 of the GENIUS Act and will collect public comments on the regulation for 60 days.
According to the draft regulation, as of January 18, 2027, the expected effective date of the GENIUS Act, individuals or entities without a suitable federal or state license will generally be unable to issue stablecoins for payment purposes in the United States.
The Treasury Department aims to more clearly define the scope of “issuing payment stablecoins in the U.S.” in the regulation. This is intended to reduce uncertainty in the industry regarding when stablecoin companies are required to obtain licenses under the GENIUS Act.
The regulation also sets conditions for stablecoins issued by companies outside the US. Accordingly, digital asset service providers may offer stablecoins on the US market provided the foreign stablecoin issuer is technically capable of executing lawful orders from US authorities and complies with reciprocal regulations between the US and the issuer’s country.
The second important date under the GENIUS Act will be July 18, 2028.
From this date, digital asset service providers will generally be permitted to offer or sell only payment stablecoins issued by licensed issuers to users in the U.S.
The regulation proposed by the Treasury also aims to clarify the responsibilities of cryptocurrency exchanges, custodians, and other digital asset service providers by defining the concept of “offering or selling” a stablecoin to a person in the United States.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stated that the GENIUS Act creates a comprehensive legal framework for payment stablecoins, and that the Treasury wants to implement regulations quickly. Bessent said that regulatory clarity aims to encourage companies to innovate in the U.S., as well as strengthen the dollar’s position as a global reserve currency.
The new draft regulation is a continuation of the preliminary regulatory work that the Treasury Department published last September regarding the implementation of the GENIUS Act, and for which it requested feedback from industry representatives. The Department expects stablecoin companies, financial institutions, and other stakeholders to submit their views on the new proposal within a 60-day consultation period.
I was looking to follow u/East-Day-7888 for Neuron related news, but it looks like he’s been banned. Any idea what might be going on there?
How much lower can it go?!
