Lisk, a prominent Layer 2 solution and member of the Optimism Superchain, announces that Obligate, a Swiss-based on-chain capital markets platform renowned for its innovative blockchain-based financial services, will deploy an instance on its network.

Dominic Schwenter, CPO of Lisk, stated, “Lisk has consistently led the way in making blockchain technology accessible, focusing specifically on solving real-world problems in emerging markets. Integrating Obligate’s platform with Lisk not only promotes financial inclusion but also pioneers advanced solutions for real-world assets (RWA) and off-chain assets (OCA). This deployment is a crucial step towards our goal of introducing the next billion people to the Web3 ecosystem.”
Benedikt Schuppli, co-founder of Obligate, commented, “Lisk L2’s design to support real-world applications and assets aligns perfectly with Obligate’s mission to offer secure and regulated blockchain solutions. Our partnership will provide robust, efficient, and transparent financial options to the regions most in need, and we are eager to witness the positive impacts of our joint efforts.”
The deployment of Obligate on Lisk L2 is particularly significant for its potential effects on real-world assets. By facilitating more straightforward and efficient capital access, Lisk L2 and Obligate will assist businesses in leveraging their physical assets for funding, thereby fostering economic growth and stability.
This collaboration also capitalizes on Lisk L2’s technological strengths, including enhanced scalability and user experience, which are essential for adopting blockchain solutions in markets with varying degrees of technological infrastructure.
