Origins of Hashgraph Online

Hashgraph Online’s roots trace back to January 4, 2024, with the creation of HCS-20, the Auditable Points Standard on Hedera. Spearheaded by Turtlemoon, HCS-20 established a novel approach for minting, transferring, and burning points linked to individual accounts. This innovation drove over 18 million transactions on the mainnet. Subsequently, partners KiloScribe, Turtlemoon, SentX, and HashPack developed HCS-1 and HCS-5 on March 5, 2024, further enabling secure on-chain storage and tokenized digital assets, known as “Hashinals,” which generated over 141,000 NFTs and an additional 7.6 million transactions. This progress laid the groundwork for the creation of Hashgraph Online.

Hedera Consensus Service as the Foundation

The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is central to Hashgraph Online’s mission, delivering the speed, security, and transparency essential for the millions of transactions the DAO’s standards enable. HCS will remain the backbone as Hashgraph Online works towards a cross-chain internet.

Future Initiatives for Hashgraph Online

The official establishment of Hashgraph Online DAO marks only the beginning. Moving forward, Hashgraph Online DAO aims to:

- Develop and expand standards, maintaining open-source tooling to address new needs.
- Enhance cross-chain data referencing standards to enable fully functioning HashSites and create pioneering products such as a Bitcoin Browser.
- Progress toward the launch of the Hashgraph Online Token.

May Chan, CEO of HashPack, commented, “Hashgraph Online is rooted in open collaboration across the ecosystem, driving advancements in Hashgraph and Web3 technology.”
