0:20 10 Part Token Valuation Process

1:00 What it Does
Hedera Hashgraph is described as a 3rd generation “blockchain” that allows computers to more quickly and efficiently achieve consensus on transactions
But it is a public Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) that utilizes a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) instead of blockchain
They say it supports 10,000 TPS with a 500K theoretical limit
Smart contracts native to the platform
Enterprise blockchain solution, controlled by a governing council ie it is not an open-source project

[1] Hedera whitepaper. https://hedera.com/hh_whitepaper_v2.1.... Page 12.

2:00 Founders: Dr. Leemon Baird and Mance Harmon
Baird - Invented the hashgraph distributed consensus algorithm
Harmon - CEO with 20 years as a strategic leader

3:00 VISION
World’s first mass-adopted public DL
Overcome fundamental obstacles of existing
blockchains in order to be widely adopted by enterprises

4:00 Background
4:20 Why Is It So Fast? Does not use traditional blockchain, instead uses a directed graph approach
Nodes “gossip” or send messages to each other at random to share information
Very low transaction fees
Can theoretically scale to 500K tps
Extremely scalable and secure

5:00 Scorecard Ranking
Comparing Enterprise Blockchain Solutions

6:00 How it Plays Blockchain alternative for enterprises as a public ledger solution
A unique consensus approach that seeks to optimize communication among blockchain nodes
Governing council consists of 39 well-known enterprises including Google, IBM, Boeing, etc
Swirlds Inc. owns the intellectual property rights to the algorithm, legally cannot be forked and charges fees for use
No license required to build apps on Hedera

7:00 Target Industries
Focuses on:
Distributed ledger solution for large enterprises to record events to a public ledger with guaranteed order that is cost-effective and scalable

8:00 Value Propositions

9:00 Technology & Developers
Proprietary consensus algorithm that is patently owned by Swirlds Inc
Allows for four major services on its platform: currency, smart contracts, file service, consensus service
Built partnership and governance system to make it attractive for enterprise use

10:00 Benchmark Ranking

I feel best benchmark is Cardano
TPS jury is out
of DAPPS 500+
Speed is much faster
Fees are far lower
Greener

11:00 Benchmark Ranking

12:00 Tokenomics Max Supply 50 Billion HBAR native tokens
Important! 50B fixed supply is a fundamental promise. Swirlds has the ability to revoke the license (in limited circumstances) and change max supply
Network incentive is to stake HBAR with validator nodes in which stakers receive network fees with Swirlds receiving 10% cut as royalty
~55% owned by treasury
Nearly 80% of supply controlled by Hedera
54.91% Hedera Treasury + 16.30% RCUs + 5% Swirls Inc. + 2.90% Management = 79.11%
260M tokens hit the market every month
At this rate 50bn distributed in 16 years
3% inflation a month
8,430,320,683 distributed to date

13:00 Partners of note

14:00 Ecosystem
Chainlink Labs will become the 21st member on the council, becoming another node runner governing Hedera’s distributed ledger. Hedera Hashgraph is a blockchain-like public ledger. In the future, Hedera plans to have a total of 39 council members.

15:00 Growth Opportunities
Consensus algorithm could be a blockchain killer if it becomes mass adopted.
Being more closed and controlled makes it more attractive to enterprises.

16:30 Working with Fed on Digital Dollar CBDC Support - makes sense!

17:00 Growth Opportunities - CBDC Play

17:30 Longevity and Track Record

18:00 Risks

19:00 Conclusion
A unique consensus approach that aspires to be a blockchain killer
However, being so centralized, closed source, and given the tokenomics it’s difficult to know what your investing in If Hedera is revolutionary, is it better to own HBAR or buy stock in Swirlds (pre IPO)?
