Leondra GmbH appoints new CTO and prepares for its next growth phase
Leondra GmbH appoints Alexander Schmitt as Chief Technology Officer (CTO)
Berlin, November 5, 2025 — Leondra GmbH, the Berlin-based licensee of Leondrino for Europe and issuer of the XLEO token, today announced the appointment of Alexander Schmitt as its new Chief Technology Officer (CTO).
Schmitt, who joins Leondra GmbH in November 2025, brings extensive experience in cloud architecture, blockchain integration, and artificial intelligence. Previously serving as CTO and Co-Founder at Fyta, he successfully led the technological scaling of IoT and data platforms. Holding two master’s degrees, one in computer science and an MBA in International Business Economics and Management (MIBEM), Schmitt combines deep technical expertise with strategic business acumen — a valuable combination in Leondrino’s context of corporate currencies.
In his new role, Schmitt will oversee the continued development of the Leondrino Platform, manage its preparation for growth, including production preparation of blockchain-based Leondrino currencies of the highest maturity, and drive the AI-supported software development. He will also coordinate external partners involved in the ongoing XLEO token rollout.
“With Alexander Schmitt, we are strengthening the technological backbone of Leondrino Germany at a crucial time — just as the MiCA regulation in Europe and the emerging U.S. framework for digital assets, including stablecoins, open new growth opportunities for our ecosystem”, says Peter Reuschel, COO/CFO of Leondra GmbH. CEO Sandra Leonie Ritter adds, “Alexander’s expertise in blockchain, automation, and AI will help us accelerate our transition toward a fully regulated, MiCA-compliant platform and support the expansion of corporate and purpose-bound currencies across Europe.”
Leondra GmbH continues to prepare for the next growth phase of its Leondrino ecosystem, including the planned extension of the XLEO rollout and the expansion of partnerships with corporate clients and regulated exchanges.

About Leondra GmbH
Leondra GmbH, headquartered in Berlin, is the first licensed operator of the Leondrino Platform for corporate and purpose-bound currencies in Europe. Founded in 2013, the company serves as the technological and regulatory anchor of the Leondrino ecosystem, connecting companies, investors, and users through a compliant token lifecycle — from early-stage utility tokens based on traditional database technology to fully regulated tokens on blockchain.
In alignment with its licensor, Leondrino Inc., the company is preparing for a major growth phase driven by the implementation of the EU MiCA regulation and the forthcoming U.S. framework for digital assets. These developments enable Leondra GmbH to expand its role as a MiCA-compliant Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) and to support European enterprises in launching their own digital currencies on the Leondrino platform.
With the upcoming next steps in its XLEO token rollout, Leondra GmbH is establishing the financial and technological foundation for a future bridge and reserve currency infrastructure that will strengthen liquidity, transparency, and interoperability between corporate currencies and the traditional financial system.
