The Liechtenstein Protocol is a decentralized compliance protocol developed by LCX, a regulated fintech company based in Liechtenstein. It’s designed to standardize the way security tokens and other tokenized assets are issued and traded on blockchains, with a strong focus on regulatory compliance.
The core of the Liechtenstein Protocol is a set of on-chain and on-token-level rules that can be embedded directly into a digital asset. These rules can automate compliance with a wide range of legal and regulatory requirements, such as those related to KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering). Key services enabled by the protocol include on-chain asset management, which allows for the issuance, timelocking, and burning of tokens, as well as real-time tracking of a token's ownership through a "Token Holder Registry."
The Liechtenstein Protocol is blockchain-agnostic, but it has a key integration with the Hedera network leveraging the Hedera Token Service (HTS) to provide a secure, transparent, and compliant infrastructure for digital securities.
Amplify World is the company behind Amplify.link, a Web3 platform designed to empower creators, brands, and communities to build their own decentralized loyalty and engagement ecosystems. Moving beyond traditional "link-in-bio" services, Amplify.link provides a suite of no-code tools that allow users to launch their own branded digital assets and rewards marketplaces.

These tokens function as loyalty points that fans can earn by completing specific tasks designed to drive engagement, called “Quests.” Community members can then spend their earned tokens in a custom rewards marketplace curated by the creator, which can offer exclusive content, merchandise, event access, or other unique perks.
Amplify.link aims to shift the power dynamic in the creator economy by providing accessible and scalable infrastructure, giving creators direct control over their community engagement and monetization channels.
