Team and Founders

• Fabian Vogelsteller (Founder): Former Ethereum core developer, author of ERC-20 and ERC-725, contributor to web3.js and Mist Browser.

• Marjorie Hernandez (Founder): Expert in bridging technology and creative industries, particularly digital transformation in fashion and luxury.

Project Concept

LUKSO brings Web3 to the creative economy:

• User-Centric Identity: Universal Profiles store all digital assets, reputation, and permissions in a single smart contract.

• New Digital Asset Standards: LSPs provide upgradeable, dynamic, and programmable tokens beyond traditional NFTs.

• Circular Economy: Transparent and responsible production and consumption for physical and digital goods.

How It Works

• Universal Profiles (UPs – LSP-0): Smart contract accounts combining identity, tokens, NFTs, multi-sig security, and gasless transactions.

• LUKSO Standards (LSPs):

  • LSP7 – Digital Asset: Fungible token standard with dynamic metadata.

  • LSP8 – ERC721-Like Digital Asset: Upgradeable NFTs with dynamic metadata.

• Technology: Layer 1, EVM-compatible, Proof-of-Stake consensus.

Investors & Partnerships

LUKSO was funded via Reversible Initial Coin Offering (rICO). Key partners:

• Liechtenstein Telecom (LTIN) – runs validators for MiCA-compliant European blockchain adoption.

• Dappnode – node operation and decentralization.

• Envio – blockchain data indexing.

• API3 & DIA – oracle services.

• Transak & Ramp – fiat-to-LYX on-ramp solutions.

Governance

• PoS Validators: LYX stakers secure the network.

• Future Governance: Community-led decentralized governance for protocol upgrades.

Roadmap

• Phase 1 – rICO & Pioneer Network (2020).
