Hedera (HBAR)

A public hashgraph network governed by a rotating council of up to 39 global enterprises rather than an open validator free-for-all, Hedera has spent September expanding both its institutional and retail tokenization footprint — the Governing Council added cybersecurity firm WISeKey and Uruguay-based SpaceDev as partners, while wallet leader HashPack is working with SODAX to bring Robinhood's tokenized Tesla and Apple stock to Hedera users. The moves come even as Grayscale quietly withdrew its HBAR ETF filing alongside similar plans for Cardano and Polkadot, a reminder that institutional appetite for altcoin ETFs remains selective.
