LQWD Technologies Corp.: Building Infrastructure for the Agentic Lightning Economy

LQWD Technologies Corp. (TSXV: LQWD) (OTCQX: LQWDF) ("LQWD" or the "Company") is building enterprise-grade Lightning Network infrastructure designed for the emerging era of AI-driven, machine-to-machine payments.

With approximately 262 Bitcoin and a global Lightning Network infrastructure with nodes in 18 countries, LQWD operates a productive Bitcoin treasury strategy where Bitcoin serves as both a strategic reserve and an operational asset powering fee-generating Lightning Network infrastructure.

The next phase of LQWD's strategy is centered on the rise of agentic payments, as AI agents and autonomous systems increasingly require instant, low-cost, internet-native payment rails. The Lightning Network is emerging as a foundational layer for machine-to-machine commerce, and building on its existing global Lightning infrastructure, LQWD has developed AI-driven Lightning solutions focused on onboarding, liquidity provisioning, starter balances, and routing optimization to support the growing agentic economy.

LQWD earns routing fees by facilitating transactions across the network while supporting growing demand for scalable machine-to-machine payment infrastructure.

The Company maintains a debt-free balance sheet with no outstanding debt, convertible bonds, or debentures, positioning LQWD to continue expanding its Lightning infrastructure as adoption of agentic payments accelerates.
