The Hedera proof-of-stake public network, powered by hashgraph consensus, achieves the highest-grade of security possible (ABFT), with blazing-fast transaction speeds and incredibly low bandwidth consumption. By combining high-throughput, low fees, and finality in seconds, Hedera leads the way for the future of public ledgers.
Build with Hedera network services
- Consensus Service
Build Directly on Hashgraph
Create scalable and publicly verifiable timestamps and ordering of events for any application. Track assets on a supply chain, count music streams for digital rights, or log digital asset transfers. - Cryptocurrency
Enable Fast, Low Fee Payments
Cryptocurrency payments allow you to transact using hbars without intermediaries to lower costs and make complex payments simple with code. - File Service
Sign and Verify Files
Create and manage files, with guaranteed visibility. File Service can act as a credentials revocation service and uniquely prove GDPR compliance. - Smart Contract
Tokenize and Exchange Assets
The tokenized economy will change how we define ownership. Use the Solidity language to create assets, perform atomic swaps, or interact with outside oracles.
A public network for everyone
Hedera is designed for fast, fair, and secure applications to take advantage of the efficiency of hashgraph on a decentralized, public network you can trust.
- Fast
Achieve fast, low-latency transactions with guaranteed finality in seconds, not minutes or hours. Hedera is an order of magnitude faster than blockchain alternatives. - Fair
Count on fair access, timestamps, and transaction ordering that can't be manipulated by malicious nodes. - Secure
Deploy on a network with proven, best-in-class asynchronous Byzantine fault tolerant (ABFT) security that's resistant to DDoS and Sybil attacks. - Stable
Run on a reliable network governed by term-limited enterprises with no authorized forks, and the ability to meet global data regulations.
HBAR (ℏ)
Dual role of HBAR
HBAR is the native cryptocurrency of the Hedera public network. Hbars are used to power decentralized applications, build peer-to-peer payment and micropayment business models, and protect the network from malicious actors.
- Network fuel
Developers use hbars to pay for network services, such as running a smart contract, storing a file, or transferring cryptocurrency. For each transaction submitted to the network, hbars are used to compensate network nodes for bandwidth, compute, and storage.
Developers can incorporate hbars into applications to facilitate peer-to-peer payments and micropayment (<$0.01) business models. - Network protection
Hedera’s proof-of-stake public network uses hbars, which are staked or proxy staked (coming soon) to a network node, to weight votes on transactions when reaching consensus.
Weighted voting with hbars makes it difficult and expensive for a bad actor to maliciously affect consensus — it would require them to own and stake over one-third of the network’s total supply of cryptocurrency, which will not be possible for the first 5 years.
The HBAR advantage
- Incredible Throughput
The Hedera network achieves 10,000 HBAR cryptocurrency transactions per second, in a single shard and on-ledger, without compromising on network security or stability. - Predictably Low Fees
Hashgraph consensus is incredibly lightweight, allowing for the cost per HBAR transaction to be very small — around $0.0001 USD. In combination with high throughput, micropayments using HBAR is a practical reality. - Finality in Seconds
Never wait for block confirmations again. HBAR transactions achieve finality, on-ledger, within three to five seconds. Be confident in payment settlements and offer modern digital experiences within your application.

Q3 2019
MIRROR NODE ALPHA
Hedera's Mirror Node software entered alpha on August 29th, 2019. Mirror nodes provide a way to store and cost-effectively query historical data from the public ledger, while minimizing the use of Hedera network resources.
NETWORK OPEN ACCESS
The Hedera mainnet (beta) was openly accessible on September 16th, 2019. Anyone can build and deploy their applications on the Hedera mainnet and create accounts for themselves and/or end users of their applications.
THIRD-PARTY INTEGRATIONS
Hedera continues integrations with third-parties that support the use of the mainnet and hbar, including exchange services, custody services, and more.

Q4 2019
DEMO APP SCAFFOLDINGS (OPEN SOURCE)
Leverage the sample application scaffolding that outlines many of the key components needed for an enterprise application using the Hedera Consensus Service and Mirror Nodes.
DEVELOPER TOOLS
Build, and release of, additional developer tools to ensure an easy and robust development experience.
DEMO APPLICATIONS
Open source demo applications created to show case individual use cases built on Hedera. These applications will showcase Hedera network services in real-world scenarios, making it easy for developers to copy from, and learn best practices for, building on Hedera.
THIRD-PARTY INTEGRATIONS (WALLETS & TOOLS)
Partner with software wallet providers, custody solutions, and developer tools to integrate Hedera.

2020
IMPROVED TESTNET ONBOARDING
Improve the onboarding experience for developers to the Hedera testnets. This includes reducing testnet KYC friction and adding a faucet for testnet hbars from within the developer portal.
HEDERA CONSENSUS SERVICE
Launch of the Hedera Consensus Service in beta. Developers can begin using Hedera Consensus Service to build high-throughput, low latency applications, utilizing the native speed, fairness, and finality of the network's underlying hashgraph consensus.
HARDWARE WALLET INTEGRATIONS
The Ledger Nano S and X are hardware wallets that will support Hedera's native cryptocurrency, HBAR.
STATE PROOFS ON ENTITIES
State proofs can be requested by querying the network for a record. When a client requests an aspect of the state, nodes can construct and return a small file carrying cryptographic material and signatures to prove the returned data is the true consensus state.
MIRROR NODE BETA
Hedera's Mirror Node software enters beta and is available for developers to download and configure for use with the Hedera testnet and mainnet.
OPEN REVIEW & OPEN SOURCE
The base layer of the codebase (hashgraph consensus) will be open for public review and made available for anyone to read, recompile, and verify that it is correct. In conjunction, Hedera services and tools will be open sourced.
