Background

What is Hedera?

By PlatformCrypto.eu editorial team · checked on

Hedera is a public network for payments, tokens and smart contracts, and HBAR is the coin that keeps it running. Its ledger is not a chain of blocks but a hashgraph. Hedera opened to everyone on 16 September 2019; its main network had gone live in August 2018, but until then it was not open to the general public.

The design comes from Leemon Baird, who described the hashgraph consensus algorithm in a Swirlds technical report in May 2016 and later co-founded Hedera with Mance Harmon. Nodes keep passing on what they have heard from one another, which the report calls gossip about gossip. From that shared record, each node can calculate how the others would vote without any votes being sent, and all of them arrive at the same order of transactions. Hedera says that order is final in under three seconds.

What sets Hedera apart is who runs it. The Hedera Council, a limited liability company with room for up to 39 members, decides on the software, pricing and the treasury. Each member has one vote and can serve at most two consecutive three-year terms. Members also operate the network's nodes, so for now only approved organisations take part in consensus; the white paper describes opening it up to other operators later. Recent arrivals include the Spanish energy group Repsol, in December 2025, and FedEx, in February 2026.

All 50 billion HBAR were created at launch and are released from the treasury in stages, and the total can only change if every council member agrees. You need HBAR to pay for network services, whose fees are set in US dollars and converted at the moment of the transaction. You can also stake it to a node, which adds to that node's weight in consensus. The software is open source and has sat with the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust, under the name Hiero, since September 2024.

Fees pegged to the dollar do not make HBAR itself stable: its price moves freely and can fall a long way.

Questions about Hedera

How much is 1 Hedera worth right now?

On 14 October 2026 at 17:02 CEST, 1 HBAR was worth €0.08 on average: the median mid-market price on 4 platforms. The price changes all the time, and what you pay on a platform also depends on its fees.

Is Hedera the same as Hedera Hashgraph?

Yes, both names refer to the same network. Hashgraph is the consensus algorithm underneath it, and the company behind the 2020 white paper was called Hedera Hashgraph, LLC, which is why the longer name still turns up on price sites and in older articles. The project itself now goes by Hedera.

How does HBAR staking work?

You pick a node, and the whole balance of your account then counts towards that node's consensus weight. Your HBAR stays in your account and can be moved at any time: Hedera has no lock-up period and no slashing. To earn a reward you need to stay staked for at least one full day, from midnight to midnight UTC. Rewards come from a dedicated network account that is funded mainly from transaction fees. If you keep your HBAR on a platform, whether and how you can stake depends on that platform.

Do you need a memo to send HBAR to an exchange?

Many exchanges require one. Hedera accounts have IDs such as 0.0.12345, and an exchange often receives deposits for lots of customers on a single account, using the memo to see whose payment it is. Some exchanges give each customer a long numeric memo. If it is missing or wrong, crediting can be delayed considerably, and some deposits cannot be recovered. A memo holds up to 100 bytes and anyone on the network can read it, so never put personal details in it.

Why are Hedera fees quoted in US dollars?

Hedera sets its fees in dollars and charges them in HBAR at the exchange rate of the moment. A basic HBAR transfer is priced at $0.0001 and opening a new account at $0.05. The dollar cost therefore stays the same whatever HBAR is trading at, while the number of HBAR you pay moves with the price.

Who owns the hashgraph technology?

The Hedera Council, since early 2022. It bought the intellectual property rights from Swirlds, the company where the algorithm was developed, for about 293 million HBAR, worth roughly $76 million at the time. The code is open source under the Apache 2.0 licence and is maintained as Project Hiero at the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust.
