What Hedera is and how it works
Hedera (HBAR) is a public network built on hashgraph technology that opened its mainnet in 2019. It is governed by a council of large organizations such as Google and IBM and focuses on enterprise use, token services and low-cost transactions.
Hashgraph spreads transactions via a gossip protocol and reaches asynchronous Byzantine fault-tolerant consensus with finality in seconds; fees are fixed in US-dollar terms and paid in HBAR.
HBAR supply and token economics
Total supply is fixed at 50 billion HBAR with no inflation; circulating supply rises as the foundation releases tokens.
What usually moves the price
Enterprise and institutional partnerships, network transaction volume, tokenization projects and institutional product news such as ETFs.
These are commonly discussed factors, not a forecast; no single factor guarantees direction.
Where to buy HBAR
HBAR spot pairs are usually listed on large exchanges such as Binance, OKX, Bybit, Bitget and Gate, but pairs and availability depend on your region and account—check the official listing. Compare fees at the same volume, then check spread and slippage.
Key HBAR risks
Governance and nodes are relatively concentrated compared with fully permissionless chains, and partnership announcements do not always turn into real usage.
Only use money you can afford to lose entirely, and size positions and liquidation prices before using leverage.
How to read the indicators on this page
RSI14 above 70 is often read as overbought and below 30 as oversold; price above MA20 and MA50 is a bullish alignment; MACD shows momentum direction. All are probabilistic readings on 90 days of daily closes and can stay extreme during trends.
