Hedera’s HBAR Bleeds, But Institutional Deals Quietly Stack Up

Hedera is quietly securing significant institutional and government partnerships that could influence its future growth, even as HBAR trades near multi-year lows. notable developments include GBBC joining the Hedera Council, Wyoming’s stable token pilot, Virginia’s environmental credit marketplace on Hedera, NATO’s DIANA 2026 program featuring Neuron, and Repsol joining the Council to deploy verifiable credentials across 90+ countries. The piece frames Hedera as increasingly entangled with regulated institutions, potentially fueling a later rebound.
