The Hedera Council is ultimately responsible for hbar distribution and release. Hedera has certain contractual obligations to distribute hbars, some of which predate the formation of the multi-member Council (e.g., SAFTs; agreements to pay advisors and certain vendors in hbar; compensation agreements with employees). However, hbars may not be transferred out of the Hedera Treasury account and new types of allocations may not be made without the approval of a majority of Council members or, if delegated by the Council, the Board of Managers.
