developed a new process that has not yet been published? Then you should consider applying for patent protection. The patent gives its owner the exclusive right to his invention for up to twenty years. Nobody may, without a license, use, manufacture, offer, place on the market, import patented products or apply patented processes.
As i understand it, they purchased the patent to then open source it, orherwise they couldn’t open source it. And when they open sourced it, they more or less gave people a license to use, manufacture, offer … it
If you want to go deeper, Hashgraph is open sourced under Apache 2.0 license: https://snyk.io/de/learn/apache-license/
