HBAR (Hedera Hashgraph)

HBAR is a cryptocurrency functioning on the Hedera network, a distributed ledger technology (DLT) utilizing a unique consensus mechanism known as hashgraph. This method diverges from traditional blockchains, which rely on proof-of-work (PoW) or proof-of-stake (PoS) for transaction validation. Instead, hashgraph employs a method called gossip about gossip, enabling nodes to rapidly and securely agree on the sequence and authenticity of transactions. In the Hedera network, HBAR serves two primary functions: it facilitates payment for network services like smart contracts, file storage, and token transfers, and it also helps secure the network. Users can stake their tokens to influence the consensus process. HBAR's goal is to offer a swift, efficient, and scalable platform for decentralized applications (DApps), potentially outperforming conventional systems.
