Tokenized Elegance: LCX Supports Charity Auction with Blockchain Innovation

At LCX, we are proud to have been part of a dazzling evening in Monte Carlo this December. The prestigious Bal de Noël charity auction, hosted by the Fondation Princesse Charlene de Monaco in collaboration with Sotheby’s, showcased the power of blending tradition, luxury, and blockchain innovation for a noble cause.

LCX and Tiamonds: A Unique Contribution to Charity

This year, the spotlight was on an extraordinary donation from Tiamonds, a platform powered by LCX. The auction featured a flawless 1.01 Carat D-Color heart-shaped natural diamond, classified as a rare Type IIa gem. Representing less than 2% of gem-quality diamonds, this stone was not only a testament to timeless elegance but also a step into the future of ownership with its blockchain-based digital twin.

LCX Donates Sparkling Diamond to Support Life-Saving Programs

This unique diamond captivated attendees and was sold during the auction organized by Sotheby’s for an impressive €18,000, with 100% of the proceeds donated to the Fondation Princesse Charlene de Monaco. The funds will support the foundation’s mission to save lives through drowning prevention programs and promote education and sports.

Monty Metzger Takes the Stage

On this glittering evening, Monty Metzger, CEO and Founder of LCX, presented the auction item alongside Louise Grether, Senior Director at Sotheby’s Monaco. Speaking about the innovative offering, Monty said:

“This diamond is not just a symbol of elegance but a step into the future of ownership. Tiamonds and LCX are proud to support this noble cause by offering a truly extraordinary piece that unites tradition and technology.”

Revolutionizing Diamond Ownership

The diamond’s new owner walked away with more than just a dazzling gem. They also received the opportunity to claim a digital ownership certificate, represented as a Tiamonds on the blockchain. This certificate ensures:

  • Free and secure storage in a high-security vault in Liechtenstein.
  • Comprehensive insurance is underwritten by Lloyd’s of London.
  • Immutable digital proof of ownership, backed by Liechtenstein blockchain laws to enforce token holder rights.
  • The ability to redeem the physical diamond at any time.
