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.

Qples is a digital promotions platform that specializes in the creation, distribution, and validation of digital coupons for Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) brands and retailers. The platform provides an end-to-end solution for delivering targeted offers to consumers through various channels, including mobile wallets and print-at-home formats.
It’s goal is to address long-standing challenges in the coupon industry, most notably fraud and the lack of real-time validation through its integration with the Hedera blockchain network. By leveraging the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), Qples creates a verifiable and immutable record for each digital coupon it issues. When a coupon is created, its unique data is hashed and submitted to the Hedera public ledger, generating a "proof of state" with a secure, tamper-proof timestamp.
This on-chain verification allows for real-time authentication at the point of sale, effectively preventing fraudulent redemptions and unauthorized duplication through the creation of a universal, single-use digital asset. Its integration with the Hedera blockchain network enables Qples to offer brands a highly secure, transparent, and data-rich promotions solution.
