What I’m requesting:
Please add native support for the Hedera Hashgraph network to Brave Wallet, including its native token (HBAR) and Hedera Token Service (HTS) tokens.
Why it matters
- Expanding Brave’s multi-chain mission: Brave Wallet already supports multiple networks like Ethereum and Solana. Adding Hedera Hashgraph strengthens Brave’s position as a true multi-chain wallet, giving users access to a unique high-performance DLT.
- Superior performance: Hedera offers unmatched transaction finality (3-5 seconds), predictable low fees (~$0.001), and carbon-negative operation—ideal for modern Web3 applications.
- Enterprise adoption + growing community: Hedera is used by major organizations (e.g., Google, IBM, Dell) and powers thousands of community-led projects. Brave users would benefit from access to this maturing ecosystem.
Feature Scope
- Network Integration
- Add Hedera as a selectable network in Brave Wallet (like Ethereum, Solana).
- Integrate mainnet RPC access and mirror node API for balance and transaction queries.
- Asset Support
- Native HBAR support for sending, receiving, and displaying balances.
- HTS token compatibility, including symbol/decimals/logo rendering.
- Wallet Functionality
- Enable address/account creation and key management via Brave.
- Future compatibility with staking, smart contract interaction (via Hedera Smart Contract 2.0), and dApp browsing.
Why Brave Should Care
- User demand is real: Hedera has a strong and growing global user base that currently must rely on external wallets. Bringing them into Brave keeps users in your ecosystem longer.
- Developer synergy: Hedera’s ease of use, stable fees, and eco-friendly tech could attract more developers to build dApps and extensions that also integrate with Brave.
- Market leadership: Supporting Hedera would make Brave one of the few mainstream wallets with first-class support for next-gen DLT technology beyond traditional blockchains.
Summary
- Request: Integrate the Hedera Hashgraph network into Brave Wallet with full support for HBAR and HTS tokens.
- Value: Broaden Brave’s reach, give users and devs access to a unique, high-speed, eco-friendly network, and attract a new wave of users into the Brave ecosystem.
Thank you Brave team and community for continuing to make Web3 accessible and secure. I hope you’ll consider expanding support to include the Hedera network—it’s a win for Brave, for users, and for the decentralized future.
