Hedera is a public distributed ledger with the ultimate goal of reaching full decentralisation. To secure the network Hedera combines a path to permissionless, also called network nodes, and a path to widespread coin distribution. Hedera's innovation is the use of hashgraph technology.
The company Swirlds holds the patents and Hashgraph licence. A governing council of different companies own and manage Hedera.
