Updated: Jan 10 2026- Surge in Trading Volume: Hedera's integration into Bitget global markets has led to trading volumes frequently exceeding $250 million within 24 hours, with spikes above 160% during heightened market activity, indicating strong institutional demand for high-throughput assets.
- Unique Governance Structure: The Hedera Governing Council, comprising major global companies like Google and IBM, operates across multiple continents, reducing regulatory uncertainty and enhancing confidence among institutional investors, ensuring smooth capital flows for large sums.
- Significant ETF Impact: The Canary Capital HBAR ETF attracted over $70 million in net inflows within its first week, absorbing more than 1% of circulating supply early on, which has shifted market supply-demand mechanics and moved price discovery towards long-term capital allocation.
- Compliance Advantage: Hedera's alignment with ISO 20022 standards and participation in global CBDC pilots reduce legal friction and enhance institutional confidence, facilitating capital deployment, especially as AI systems increasingly require auditability, supported by Hedera's high throughput capabilities.
