docStribute is a UK-based technology company that provides a secure and auditable solution for the distribution of sensitive documents. Founded with the goal of revolutionizing business communication, docStribute leverages distributed ledger technology to offer a more secure and efficient alternative to traditional methods such as email.

‍

The company's core service is a document distribution platform that allows businesses to send documents of any sise with an immutable, auditable trail. When a document is sent through docStribute, a unique digital fingerprint of the document is created and recorded on a public ledger. This provides a verifiable record of when the document was sent and by whom, without storing the document itself on the blockchain. It’s designed to be user-friendly and to integrate with existing business workflows, offering features such as real-time tracking, delivery confirmation, and tamper-proof security.

‍

docStribute's platform is built on the Hedera network. It uses the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) to create a secure and transparent log of all document transactions.

Lil Monki is a collection of 1,212 unique, 3D-rendered NFT characters that represent the genesis project within the broader "Lil Universe" ecosystem on the Hedera network. 

‍

As the foundational characters of the Lil Universe, Lil Monkis serve as a key to accessing features and interacting with other future collections within the expanding ecosystem and community. 

‍

A central element of the Lil Monki project is the "Monki Lab," a feature that allows holders to evolve their NFTs. By combining a Lil Monki with other specific assets from the ecosystem, users can create new, often rarer characters, introducing a strategic and deflationary dynamic to the collection. This process, along with other platform activities, is powered by the native ecosystem token, $LILU. Holders can typically stake their Lil Monki NFTs to passively earn $LILU, which is then used to pay for evolutions and other transactions within the Lil Universe.

‍

Built entirely on Hedera, the project leverages the network's speed and low transaction fees to enable an affordable and efficient user experience for staking, trading, and utilizing the NFT evolution mechanics.
