The US Department of Transportation [USDOT] was rumoured to adopt Hedera after it went viral on social media; however, HBAR lost <\/span>2.14%<\/b> of its price.<\/span><\/p>\n

The posts refer to a patent that includes a mention of Hedera, but USDOT and Hedera have not announced any integration relating to USDOT-registered vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Patent mention becomes an adoption claim<\/strong><\/h2>\n

A post<\/a> has appeared stating that USDOT are integrating Hedera for payment and settlements on over <\/span>300 million vehicles<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The claim can be traced to a reported patent application, <\/span>US20250378436A1<\/b>, that is associated with a USDOT official. It is proposed to have a nationwide system for tax to be paid while travelling a distance.<\/span><\/p>\n

While it states Hedera is one technology that would allow payments in such a system, it does not mean that USDOT has chosen and deployed the network.<\/span><\/p>\n

Patent applications commonly describe several possible technologies when explaining how an idea could work. But what they don\u2019t do is confirm that a government agency plans to build or purchase the proposed system.<\/span><\/p>\n

At the time of writing, no matching announcement was available from USDOT, Hedera or the Hedera Council.<\/span><\/p>\n

HBAR price remains below resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n

HBAR<\/a> changed hands for <\/span>$0.08014<\/b> at the write-up time and got up to <\/span>$0.08293<\/b> earlier in the session, coming down again and leaving the token with a <\/span>2.14%<\/b> loss.<\/span><\/p>\n

The retreat shows that buyers are still struggling around <\/span>$0.082\u2013$0.085<\/b>. HBAR would need to move above that area and remain there before a stronger recovery towards <\/span>$0.09<\/b> becomes more likely.<\/span><\/p>\n

The token has nevertheless improved from its August low near <\/span>$0.065<\/b>, and its latest decline therefore interrupts the recovery without erasing it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"HBAR<\/a>
Source: TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If the selling persists, the first area for buyers to return to will be around the <\/span>$0.075<\/b> mark; a fall beneath there would then expose <\/span>$0.0<\/b>7, and then the August lows around <\/span>$0.065<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, trading remains unbalanced with no side holding any advantage, and finding a rally into <\/span>$0.10<\/b> will be a long shot, as a price breakthrough with confirmation or any news coming from official source is needed to support the rally.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Final Summary<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • HBAR fell by <\/span>2.14%<\/b> after an intraday high of $0.08293 as resistance between <\/span>$0.082-$0.085<\/b> held.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • A patent mentioning Hedera does not mean that USDOT has adopted or deployed the network.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
