Quhuo Expands Use of Blockchain Technology to Enhance Cross-Border Business Operations

BEIJING, Nov. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Quhuo Limited (NASDAQ: QH) (“Quhuo” or the “Company”), a leading gig economy platform focusing on local community-centered services in China, today announced a strategic partnership with blockchain investment and advisory firm Topliquidity Management Limited (“Topliquidity”). Under the agreement, Topliquidity will provide advisory services to Quhuo in connection with its blockchain initiatives and digital currency strategies, strengthening its global expansion.

Quhuo International, the Company’s overseas division, focuses on vehicle exports. Since its inception in 2023, Quhuo International’s business has grown rapidly and established strong partnerships across multiple countries. The collaboration with Topliquility is intended to provide Quhuo International with a more flexible settlement and asset management approach for its international operations.

In certain overseas multinational trade scenarios, real-world assets may be tokenized and anchored on the blockchain, enabling them to be linked with stablecoins, unlocking new financing channels to enhance transaction flexibility and security. As blockchain-based assets, stablecoins benefit from market pricing and broad liquidity, making them suitable for use in global payments and settlements. For example, in multinational operations where access to U.S. dollar reserves is limited, stablecoins can be used to facilitate payments and ensure smooth transactions.

Quhuo will actively explore compliance frameworks for blockchain technology to ensure that stablecoin payments and digital asset management operate legally and in line with regulatory requirements across different jurisdictions.

In recent years, global capital markets have shown growing interest in digitalization, blockchain, and related asset management models. As companies accelerate their international expansion, blockchain technology is emerging as a key link connecting diverse markets and resources. Quhuo believes that future competitiveness will be defined not only by business scale, but also by the ability to anticipate technological trends and apply them with agility.

TopLiquidity is a leading global investment and advisory firm in public equities and digital assets. Its team has invested and advised numerous digital asset treasury transactions in key capital markets across the globe.

Through this partnership, Topliquidity will provide Quhuo with services spanning blockchain technology, digital asset allocation and management, strategic planning, investor outreach and financing support, market communication, and regulatory compliance. Quhuo plans to establish cross-department collaboration mechanisms to seamlessly integrate blockchain technology into its existing business processes. For example, in its vehicle export business, the Company will explore the use of smart contracts in executing trade agreements, helping reduce manual labor costs and improve transaction transparency.

This marks another step in Quhuo’s digital development following its earlier exploration of digitalization in the housing rental business. The initiative represents not only a technological upgrade, but also an expansion of the company’s strategic vision. Leslie Yu, CEO of Quhuo, stated: “Digitalization is a key driver of long-term growth. This collaboration represents an important step in our digital strategy and a proactive move to prepare for future market dynamics. We believe that forward-looking technological adoption and prudent strategic planning will strengthen Quhuo’s competitiveness in the global market and create sustainable value for our shareholders.”
