2.2 Key Features and Innovations

LQDTY incorporates several groundbreaking features that distinguish it from traditional Layer 1 blockchains:


1. Biometric Key Shard Verification for Secure Transactions

In partnership with Telos, a leading cybersecurity company and provider of TSA PreCheck services in the United States, LQDTY integrates biometric key shard verification into its transaction framework.

  • Optional Biometric Security: Users can opt for biometric authentication, enhancing transaction security for high-value or sensitive operations.

  • Broad Use Case Support: From DeFi protocols and NFT marketplaces to enterprisegrade applications, LQDTY empowers developers to create innovative solutions across industries.

4. Enforced Compliance Using ZKPs

  • AML and KYC Compliance: Users undergo secure KYC processes, including ongoing validation for Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs) and sanctions compliance.

  • Investor Accreditation: ZKPs validate investor accreditation status for retail and institutional participants, including 506(b), 506(c), Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIB), and Qualified Purchasers (QP).
