Hedera (HBAR) is perhaps one of the most used and sustainable public networks, allowing users to create unique decentralised applications (DApps). As a unique protocol, it is expected to be faster and more secure than traditional blockchain technologies.
With its dependence on proof-of-stake consensus, it offers energy-efficient solutions and follows the Gossip protocol, wherein each node communicates with every other node to authenticate the transactions. Due to this, all the transaction data creates a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), which is critical to the Hashgraph Consensus Mechanism.

On 25 April, the HBRAR crypto wasn’t witnessing a good run on the market as it was down by 4%. This marks a continuation of the trend for HBAR, which has been on the downward slide over the past 30 days witnessing losses of over 19%.
Why is the HBAR trailing?
The exact reason for HBAR’s downward slide is unknown, but the project has seen significant developments of late. On 22 April, it got integrated with DappRadar, wherein the projects built on Hedera will be listed on the analytics firm.
Earlier in April, HBAR Foundation committed US$250 million to integrate the metaverse apps to HBAR. The metaverse fund was aimed to target various B2C and B2B projects, which Hedera believes will expand its horizon to Web 3.0.
What makes Hedera unique is that it has its own DLT service called the Hashgraph. The Hashgraph has a more incredible TPS speed and can handle up to 10,000 transactions per second.
