Hedera is a public network built on the Hashgraph consensus algorithm. Unlike traditional blockchain systems, Hashgraph offers high throughput, low latency, fair ordering, and fast finality. The network is optimized for developers needing predictable fees, enterprise-grade security, and the ability to run EVM-compatible smart contracts.
Hedera supports EVM execution, allowing developers to interact with Hedera nodes using familiar Ethereum JSON-RPC standards. This compatibility enables seamless migration of decentralized applications, wallet integrations, and contract deployment processes. Developers can query transactions, perform state validation, configure endpoints, and execute smart contracts across the Hedera mainnet, testnet, and previewnet.
Hedera provides predictable fee structures for HBAR transfers, contract calls, token operations, and large-scale production workloads. The platform’s scalability and deterministic latency make it suitable for enterprise systems, governance frameworks, tokenization, payments, digital identity, and high-throughput decentralized applications.
