What is Hedera?

Hedera opened its network to the public in 2019. It is based on hashgraph, a consensus algorithm created by scientist Leemon Baird that records transactions in a graph rather than a chain of blocks.

The network is governed by a council of companies and institutions from several sectors and countries, with term limits, which run the nodes and vote on changes.

How Hedera works

Nodes exchange information with each other at random and, through that, agree on the order of transactions within a few seconds, with immediate finality.

HBAR pays fees, which are fixed in dollars and charged in the token, and is staked to weight consensus. Total supply is fixed at 50 billion units, released gradually.

What HBAR is used for

  • Paying predictable fees for transactions, tokens and smart contracts.
  • Recording data with verifiable timestamps for companies.
  • Issuing tokenized assets and stablecoins.

Risks and points of attention

  • Governance and node operation concentrated in the council, with less decentralization than open networks.
  • Gradual release of treasury tokens increases circulating supply.
  • Corporate adoption does not guarantee proportional demand for HBAR.
  • Volatility typical of crypto assets.
