The week started weak. HBAR made its low on 2 September and then rose for five days to a high on 7 September. From low to high the move was about 13.6%. On 8 September the price gave back part of that gain and settled about 4% below the peak.
How far from the record
CoinGecko lists HBAR's all-time high as $0.569229, set on 15 September 2021. At $0.07965 on 8 September 2026, HBAR was about 86% below that record. It would have needed to rise about 7.1 times to get back there.
Since then: 25 October 2026
At 10:36 UTC on 25 October 2026, CoinGecko showed:
- Price: $0.076612, about 3.8% below the 8 September reading and about 86.5% below the all-time high
- Market cap: about $3.40 billion, rank 32
- Circulating supply: 44.33 billion HBAR, out of a fixed maximum of 50 billion
The 1–8 September rally did not last. The price drifted back into the range it held at the start of that week.
How much HBAR does a dollar-set fee cost?
Pick a Hedera base fee in US dollars and an HBAR price to see how many HBAR one transaction uses.
| Base fee for the transaction type | HBAR price | HBAR used per transaction |
|---|---|---|
| 0.0001 USD | 0.07965 USD | 0.001255 HBAR |
| 0.0008 USD | 0.076612 USD | 0.010442 HBAR |
| 0.001 USD | 0.08302 USD | 0.012045 HBAR |
| 0.0001 USD | 0.569229 USD | 0.000176 HBAR |
- The fee and price are your own inputs. The listed fees come from Hedera's documentation and the prices from CoinGecko readings quoted in the article.
- Because fees are fixed in dollars, a higher HBAR price gives a smaller HBAR amount for the same dollar fee.
This uses base fees only. Some transaction features can push the cost above the base fee, and the network converts at its own live rate, which may not match the CoinGecko price. It says nothing about where the HBAR price will go.
What HBAR pays for on the network
HBAR is the native token of Hedera, a public network. It pays transaction fees and secures the network through staking. Two design details matter for anyone following the token:
- Fees are set in US dollars, not in HBAR. Hedera's documentation says fees are "charged in HBAR, converted from USD at the live exchange rate." The listed base fees are $0.0001 for an HBAR transfer (CryptoTransfer), $0.0008 for a Consensus Service message (ConsensusSubmitMessage) and $0.001 for a token transfer (TokenTransfer). The documentation adds that some transaction features can raise the cost above the base fee. Because fees are fixed in dollars, a higher HBAR price means users spend fewer tokens per transaction, not more dollars.
- Consensus is hashgraph-based. Hedera's documentation describes its hashgraph algorithm as "asynchronous Byzantine Fault Tolerant" (aBFT). In plain terms, no single member or small group can block consensus or change it once it has been reached.
Reading a weekly snapshot
- Check the timestamp first. Percentage changes depend on the exact hours being compared. CoinGecko's daily snapshot for 8 September, taken at 00:00 UTC, showed $0.0818, while the 13:51 UTC price was $0.07965. Both are correct for their own moment.
- Market cap and volume move during the day. Treat the table figures as a reading taken at the listed time, not as a figure for the whole day.
- A weekly range is history, not a forecast. The $0.07308 low and $0.08302 high are prices the market actually traded at. They do not predict where the price will go next.
Limitations: all price, supply and market data come from one aggregator, CoinGecko, and were not checked against a second data provider.
