Stephan D. Meyer
Digital assets and fintech have entered a structural phase. Regulation is no longer a hurdle to navigate - it is part of the infrastructure. This requires designing within it, across jurisdictions and at scale. The companies that will lead this cycle won’t be those trying to minimize the law. They will be those who understand how to use it strategically. Let's talk!

Why LEXR for blockchain & crypto

01

Crypto DNA

We've advised on token launches, DeFi and DAOs since 2017 — crypto is native to how we work, not a bolted-on practice.

02

Community voice

We help shape Swiss and EU crypto regulation through industry associations, so we see where the rules are heading before they land.

03

Crypto speed

Standardized playbooks and AI-amplified workflows move at the pace the market does — without cutting the senior review.

What we cover

From a first token assessment to a public sale — the full crypto legal layer, in one team.

Token qualification is crucial to understand regulatory requirements — both for token issuers and for crypto exchanges and brokers. We're well-experienced in assessing tokens under Swiss law and the FINMA guidelines.

LEXR is cutting-edge when it comes to the tokenisation of assets in Switzerland. We've successfully tokenised a range of different assets — from a Rolex to a Picasso to shares and other financial instruments.

Get expert advice combined with our time-tested SAFT / SAFE (simple agreement for future tokens/equity) agreements to fund the development of your project.

Switzerland provides a favourable regulatory framework for issuing all types of tokens. We show possibilities and limitations and help you structure and execute your public sale, including KYC and AML procedures.

We work with any type of intermediary, from virtual asset service providers (VASPs / CASPs) to exchange data aggregators.

Decentralised autonomous organisations and DeFi protocols open up new ways of organising. We help you decide whether to follow their example and accompany you every step of the way.

While DLT technology can set new standards, you can easily get lost in the regulatory jungle. We help you make your vision of the new world come to life.

Our corporate, regulatory and tax experts prepare, hold and debrief your key stakeholders in a focused two-hour workshop.
