- There is active community within the society interested in one of open-source contributions, research, community building or similar activities.
- There are more than 10 people in the society communicating together about the Hyperledger community.
- There are at least 2 people in the society who are interested in acting as leaders for the society and willing to recruit new members, organize regular meetings (either online or in person, the frequency of such meetings shall be at least once a month).
