Swissi
DLT
DAG-based distributed ledger with two-layer architecture — native token and enterprise settlement
Our Own DAG Network
We operate a very fast and secure transaction processing system — full regulatory compliance. Built for FINMA, BaFin, and FMA approval.
A purpose-built distributed ledger for regulated financial transactions, enterprise settlement, and cross-company data exchange. DAG-based architecture for parallel processing, near-instant finality, and horizontal scalability without traditional blockchain limitations.
"Institutional infrastructure requires institutional-grade technology. The Swissi DLT delivers the performance, privacy, and regulatory compliance that enterprise clients demand."— Swissi Founders
Enterprise needs regulated settlement infrastructure. Traditional blockchains are too slow, too expensive, and lack the privacy controls required for institutional use.
Two-layer DAG architecture with native token. L1 Hornet for universal settlement, L2 application networks for custom logic—delivering 10,000+ TPS with sub-second finality.
Two-Layer Architecture
Separation of concerns between the settlement layer and application-specific networks enables scalability, privacy, and regulatory compliance at every level.
Layer 1
Swissi Hornet
The universal settlement layer for the entire Swissi ecosystem. All ecosystem participants—companies, operators, validators—connect to Layer 1 for final settlement, cross-network transactions, and native token operations.
- —Global state consensus
- —Native token issuance and transfer
- —Cross-L2 message passing
- —Validator coordination
Layer 2
Application Networks
Dedicated networks for specific use cases and organisations. Each L2 network inherits security from Layer 1 while providing custom logic, privacy controls, and throughput optimisation for its specific requirements.
- —Application-specific smart contracts
- —Custom privacy and access control
- —High-throughput local processing
- —Periodic L1 anchoring
Layer 1: Swissi Hornet
The Hornet node implementation provides the foundation for the entire Swissi distributed ledger. Based on DAG consensus, it enables feeless value transfers, data anchoring, and decentralised identity without the energy waste of proof-of-work or the centralisation risks of delegated systems.
Every Swissi ecosystem participant operates through Layer 1—from the Data Centre nodes validating transactions to the AI companies settling payments in native tokens.
The DAG structure allows parallel transaction processing: unlike sequential blockchains, multiple transactions can be confirmed simultaneously, enabling throughput that scales with network participation.
Parallel transaction processing
Confirmation time
No gas costs for basic operations
Directed Acyclic Graph structure
Immutable Transaction Ledger
Every transaction on the Swissi DLT is cryptographically linked to previous transactions, forming an immutable record of all ecosystem activity. The DAG structure enables this without the bottlenecks of sequential block confirmation.
Full audit trail visibility for regulators, real-time settlement tracking for operators, and cryptographic proof of every state transition—from token transfers to smart contract executions.
Layer 2 Networks
Dedicated application networks for Swissi ecosystem companies and external partners. Each network operates with custom parameters while anchoring to Layer 1 for security.

Native Token
The native utility token of the Swissi DLT serves as the coordination mechanism for the entire ecosystem—from validator incentives to cross-network settlement.
Utility Functions
- 01Validator staking and rewards
- 02L2 network deployment fees
- 03Cross-network message fees
- 04Governance participation
Payment Integration
The native token will serve as a payment instrument across the Swissi ecosystem, enabling direct settlement between ecosystem participants without fiat conversion.
Combined with the sCHF and sEUR stablecoins, this creates a complete digital payment infrastructure for both volatile and stable-value transactions.
Tradable on Exchanges
The SWIS token will be listed on regulated exchanges, enabling price discovery and liquidity for ecosystem participants. Token holders can trade freely while maintaining full compliance with Swiss and EU securities regulations.
Unlike utility tokens trapped in closed ecosystems, SWIS provides genuine economic value through staking yields, governance rights, and direct utility in the Swissi infrastructure.

Why DAG over Blockchain?
Traditional blockchains process transactions sequentially—each block must wait for the previous one. This creates fundamental throughput limitations regardless of hardware improvements.
Directed Acyclic Graphs allow parallel processing: multiple transactions can reference different parts of the ledger simultaneously. Throughput scales with network activity rather than being constrained by block times.
For enterprise applications requiring high transaction volumes—payment processing, IoT data anchoring, supply chain tracking—DAG architecture provides the scalability that sequential blockchains cannot match.
Multiple transactions confirmed simultaneously
No waiting for block intervals
No congestion-based pricing
More activity = more throughput
