LMaaS Week, Cointelegraph and Hardcore NoMercy Pool (but #WenDEX?)
In the last couple of weeks, our team has launched a spotlight on the success of our liquidity mining and staking solution, LMaaS, with multiple announcements, guest features, and even a hoodie giveaway! We also announced a number of key partnerships that will see our solutions disrupting new chains and industries. Our wonderful community has also given us their profound confidence with the record fill-up time for the Four Year Hardcore NoMercy Pool. It’s been a fantastic month and we’re eager to break it down for you all. Let’s go!

We threw a spotlight week for our Liquidity Mining as a Service (LMaaS) solution, dubbed #LMaaSWeek. The week included Telegram AMAs with product owners and clients, new informative content, technical breakdown of the benefits, and for the finale, we even dropped a merch giveaway.
During the #LMaaSWeek, due to increased client demand, we introduced a paywall to our white-label and liquidity mining solution at the end of November. The upcoming payment system will be through ALBT, providing additional utility for our Token. Know a project that can benefit for free until then? Send them this.
We partnered with dua.com, an innovator in migrant community building, allowing us to disrupt a totally new industry — international remittances!
We partnered with Flare Network! Facilitated by our chain-agnostic interoperability bridge, we will deploy AllianceBlock DEX and Fundrs to Songbird, Flare’s Canary network, and much more in the pipelines.
Our long-awaited, four-year Hardcore #NoMercy Staking Pool filled up in record time, with a whopping 20M $ALBT staked, showing overwhelming confidence from our community in our vision.
This month, our partner spotlight sheds light on Elrond, CV Labs, and Omniscia, and some of the awesome things they’re doing to develop the DeFi ecosystem.
We also got invited to guest in a few podcasts to chat about our mission; Rachid (CEO) gave the AllianceBlock low-down on the Crypto Coin Show. Matthijs (CTO) and Anders (CMO) joined forces with the Voice of Fintech podcast discussing our plans to build a disruptive ecosystem.
Finally, we released the long-awaited AllianceBlock #DEX white paper! This is just the beginning for our cutting-edge decentralized exchange with a brand new automated market maker (AMM). Stay tuned for #DEXWeek, 22-26/11.

What an #LMaaSWeek has it been!
Our channel has been flooded with engagement and many new faces, all on top of many interesting conversations with potential LMaaS clients.
We’ve come up with this retrospective to show you what went down during the spotlight for our white label liquidity mining and staking solution. Check it out here.
Since its release in late May, we’re happy to report our white label liquidity mining and staking solution can claim the following results…
During the LMaaS Week AMA, with Chief Innovation Officer Gerben van den Bergh and Product Owner Daniel van der Woude, Daniel gave us a sneak peek with what to expect in the development of LMaaS within the next year:
"Imagine that clients can bridge their token seamlessly when creating a liquidity mining pool on another network. This would tremendously improve the ease-of-use for LMaaS and will at the same time benefit the utility of our Bridge.
We also want to integrate the DEX, so each liquidity pool that is created within LMaaS can be directly listed in our DEX. Imagine that for each liquidity pool that you are creating there will be a pair created on our DEX. This will not only benefit our customers but all will benefit from this use case for our DEX.
We will have set many steps into creating a one-stop-shop for all things DeFi. This has always been the vision. It is so cool to see that all the pieces are slowly falling into place."
In the meantime, here’s what you have to look forward to:
During the LMaaSWeek, we also announced that due to increased client demand, we’re introducing a paywall to our white label and liquidity mining solution at the end of November. Know a project that can benefit for free until then? Send them this.
IXSwap is another innovative project to benefit from our solutions this month. By extending our AllianceBlock Bridge, LMaaS, and Data Tunnel to their project, we will enhance their DeFi and cross-chain capabilities, improving the adoption of their ecosystem and the liquidity of their token.

Our partners at theAIKON and ORE Protocol have also launched a liquidity mining campaign using our LMaaS solution. We’ll also be hosting an AMA with Marc Blinder, CEO at AIKON and Core Contributor at ORE, this week on the 11th of November (Thurs) at 5 PM CET, on our Telegram channel.
Additional campaigns are still going strong from our returning clients Dafi Protocol and Polkalokr!
In the DeFi space, four years can be seen as a lifetime. Projects come and go, new technologies are invented and competition increases. This makes us even more proud to report that our recent long-term staking pool filled up in record time!
In just three hours since going live on Monday evening CEST, it was 75% full. In 12 hours it reached 100%, with 20 million $ALBT tokens committed by participants for a fixed period of four years. This is a huge sign of trust from our community. Thank you for the enormous confidence and commitment you have in our vision for the future of finance.
Amazing things are coming for this quarter and the years to come – we’re glad to have you on this journey with us. Check out this handy recap of all the amazing stats about this pool.
Our partnership with dua.com, an innovator in migrant community building, allows us to disrupt a totally new industry — international remittances.
Every year, billions of dollars are transferred internationally by migrant communities back to their countries of origin. Current solutions and products facilitating this are expensive, slow, and clearly due for an upgrade.
Using our DeFi solutions, we’ll help dua create better remittance services for their growing community of 270,000+ users.
We've also partnered with the Flare Network. Sharing a joint mission to bridge capital flows from traditional finance into DeFi, we're delighted to announce that we will be deploying AllianceBlock DEX and Fundrs MVP on Songbird, Flare's Canary network.
This product partnership is facilitated by our chain-agnostic interoperability bridge.
Moving forward, we will integrate our Regulatory and Compliance Layer and our Liquidity Mining as a Service (LMaaS) solution, inviting new institutional and retail liquidity flows to the Flare ecosystem.

Product Owner, LMaaS and Data Tunnel
“Since the moment I stepped into the door at AllianceBlock I’ve been feeling the massive drive of the whole company to achieve an enormously ambitious goal.
I’ve had the pleasure of working together with two development teams that are highly skilled and motivated to take our products to the next level.
Every day I step into the office, thinking that I have an idea of what is going to happen. But each day always turns out different. That’s the challenging but also the massive fun part.
It’s really a great feeling knowing that you are surrounded by people that work as a team together. From product development to marketing and business development, we all got each other’s back and strive for the same goal, bringing DeFi to TradFi.”
