HBAR was likely chosen due to its cutting-edge technology. According to experts, Hedera provides revolutionary solutions to all the challenges that come with older blockchain technologies.
Reportedly, Hedera can facilitate trillions of transactions per second compared to Ethereum’s 12-15 transactions per second (TPS).
Meanwhile, Hedera can operate at this astonishing level of TPS while allegedly consuming 970,000,000x less energy than Ethereum. This could mark a huge breakthrough for satellite-to-satellite payment networks while subjecting transactions across Earth and space to a significant transformation.

More HBAR News: Hedera Hashgraph Board Member In The Running To Replace Gary Gensler As SEC Chair
(Source)
Former CEO of Binance US Brian Brooks is a candidate to replace outgoing SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Following Donald Trump’s campaign promise to ‘fire Gary on day one,’ Gensler issued a statement last week, with many speculating that it was a farewell letter.
The unpopular figure will likely leave on his own terms rather than face public humiliation at the hands of the incoming President Trump.
Over the weekend, Fox News aired a graphic showing potential candidates for Gensler’s role, including Brian Brooks. Brooks was previously nominated twice by Donald Trump for a five-year term as Comptroller of the Currency: once during the 116th Congress and once during the 117th Congress.
Now Brooks is being touted as a top candidate for the job, as Trump is building a cabinet full of the brightest minds in America, all with a pro-crypto stance.
