Hedera Joins Digital Money Institute as Institutional Coordination Grows
Hedera Joins Digital Money Institute as Institutional Coordination Grows
🏛️ Hedera joins DMI
Hedera has joined the Digital Money Institute (DMI), marking a significant step in institutional coordination around digital assets and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Key developments:
- The DMI membership signals policy alignment becoming critical for real-world blockchain interoperability
- Follows Hedera's recent transition to Hiero under the Linux Foundation, strengthening open-source governance
- U.S. federal research has validated Hedera Consensus Service for tamper-proof identity and secure data sharing
Why this matters:
Neutral, production-grade infrastructure like Hashport relies on this kind of institutional foundation. The bridge protocol uses the same Hedera Consensus Service layer to anchor cross-chain activity, benefiting from the network's growing recognition as trust infrastructure.
As enterprise-grade systems and regulatory frameworks converge, interoperability solutions built on validated, governed networks are positioned to serve institutional use cases.
Policy alignment is critical for real-world interoperability. Hedera joining the DMI signals growing institutional coordination around digital assets and CBDCs—exactly the environment neutral, production-grade bridges like Hashport are built for.
🚨 Hedera has joined the Digital Monetary Institute (DMI), becoming part of a global network of central banks, financial institutions, payment providers, and tech firms shaping policy around CBDCs. $HBAR Hedera will collaborate with banks and share insights, track developments,
This is what real-world validation looks like. When U.S. federal research points to @hedera Consensus Service for tamper-proof identity and secure data sharing, it reinforces Hedera’s role as trust infrastructure — not just a ledger. Exactly the kind of foundation serious

Open-source governance and enterprise-grade infrastructure are prerequisites for real interoperability. Hedera’s transition to Hiero under the Linux Foundation strengthens the neutral, production-ready foundation that cross-chain systems like Hashport are built to connect.
HEDERA: THE HIERO OPEN-SOURCE TRANSITION Hedera is accelerating its decentralization by transitioning its core codebase to the Hiero project under the Linux Foundation. This move is supported by a major update to the Hiero Swift SDK (v0.47.0), which now officially supports
Hedera Builds Trustless Digital Identity Infrastructure for Cross-Chain Future
**Hedera is developing core infrastructure for trustless digital identity** as blockchain ecosystems become increasingly interconnected. The network is positioning itself to address a critical need: **verifiable identity across multiple chains**. As users and digital assets move between different blockchain networks, establishing trusted identity becomes essential for security and functionality. **Key developments:** - Hedera assembling digital identity primitives - Focus on cross-chain compatibility - Integration with existing bridge infrastructure [Hashport](http://app.hashport.network) serves as the connecting bridge, enabling asset movement between networks while supporting this emerging identity layer. The timing aligns with growing demand for **seamless cross-chain experiences** without compromising security or user verification standards. *This infrastructure could become foundational as Web3 moves toward true interoperability.*
Hashport Expands Integration with GCoin and Bonzo Finance
Hashport has expanded its cross-chain capabilities with two notable integrations: - Successfully integrated Gilmore Estates' GCoin ($GC) in December 2024 - Supporting Bonzo Finance, Hedera's new lending protocol, by enabling asset migration from popular EVM networks **Key Benefits:** - Users can now port GCoin across supported networks - Access to competitive lending rates on Bonzo Finance - Seamless asset migration from EVM-compatible blockchains to Hedera *Integration enables broader DeFi participation and enhanced liquidity across networks.*
Hedera and DOVU Partner to Enhance Carbon Credit Transparency
**Hedera** and **DOVU** have launched a new initiative to improve carbon credit tracking and transparency through blockchain technology. Key developments: - DOVU's carbon credits now fully traceable on Hedera network - Enhanced verification system for environmental impact - Integration with existing sustainability frameworks This collaboration marks a significant step toward bringing greater accountability to carbon offset markets. The system allows for real-time tracking and verification of carbon credits, helping organizations better manage their environmental commitments. *Want to learn more about carbon credit tokenization?* Visit Hedera's documentation portal.
