Summary of Risk Factors

Our business is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those detailed below. The most significant risks include:

• Our total revenue largely depends on the prices of cryptocurrencies and the volume of transactions on our platform. A decline in these could negatively affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.
• Our net revenue may be concentrated in a few areas. A significant portion comes from transactions in Bitcoin and Ethereum and interest income from USDT. If these revenue sources decline and are not replaced by new demand, our business could be negatively affected.
• We have formed, and may form in the future, partnerships or strategic alliances with third parties. If these relationships are unsuccessful or these third parties fail to deliver certain services, our business could be negatively affected.
• Fluctuations in interest rates could have a negative impact on us.
• The future growth of cryptocurrency is subject to unpredictable factors. If crypto doesn't grow as we expect, our business could be negatively affected.
• Cyberattacks and security breaches could harm our brand and reputation and negatively affect our business.
• We operate in a complex and uncertain regulatory landscape. Any adverse changes or failure to comply with laws and regulations could negatively affect our business.
• We operate in a highly competitive industry and compete against unregulated companies and companies with greater resources. If we can't effectively respond to our competitors, our business could be negatively affected.
• We compete against a growing number of decentralized and noncustodial platforms. Failure to compete effectively against them could negatively affect our business.
• As we expand internationally, our obligations to comply with various jurisdictions' laws will increase, and we may be subject to inquiries, investigations, and enforcement actions.
• We are subject to material litigation, including individual and class action lawsuits, as well as investigations and enforcement actions. These matters can be expensive and time-consuming, and if resolved adversely, could harm our business.

• If we can't keep pace with rapid industry changes to provide new and innovative products and services, our net revenue could decline, negatively impacting our business.
• The status of a particular cryptocurrency as a "security" is highly uncertain. If we incorrectly characterize a cryptocurrency, we may face regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, and other penalties.
• We rely on third-party service providers for certain operations. Any service interruptions from these third parties may impair our ability to support our customers.
• Loss of a critical banking or insurance relationship could negatively affect our business.
• Any significant disruption in our products, services, IT systems, or any of the blockchain networks we support could result in a loss of customers or funds and negatively impact our brand and reputation.
• Our failure to safeguard and manage our and our customers' fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies could negatively impact our business.
• The theft, loss, or destruction of private keys required to access any cryptocurrencies held in custody for our own account or for our customers may be irreversible. If we are unable to access our private keys or if we experience a hack or other data loss, it could cause regulatory scrutiny, reputational harm, and other losses.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Foundation for Presentation and Consolidation Principles

The attached financial statements of the Company are not audited. These non-audited financial statements are prepared following the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") in the same manner as the audited financial statements. In the management's view, they include all necessary adjustments, which are only regular, recurring adjustments, for a fair representation of the Company's financial statements for the periods shown. The non-audited operational results for the 30 days ending October 23, 2024, may not necessarily predict the results for the full year or any other period.

Use of estimates

The creation of these financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Significant estimates and assumptions include the

fair value of customer cryptocurrencies and liabilities.

3. REVENUE, EXPENSES AND COSTS ANALYSIS

Revenue recognition

The organization establishes the process of acknowledging income from customer contracts through the subsequent stages:

• Pinpointing the agreement, or agreements, made with the client;
• Recognizing the duties to be performed as stated in the agreement;
• Calculating the price of the transaction;
• Distributing the transaction price to the duties to be performed as per the agreement;
• Acknowledging the income when the organization fulfills a duty to be performed.

Revenue is recognized when the control of the promised products or services is handed over to the clients, in a quantity that mirrors the payment the organization anticipates to receive in return for those products or services.

It is essential to provide our investors with a granular view of our financial activities. By breaking down each revenue and cost category associated with fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies, we aim to offer a comprehensive understanding of our operations and financial health. This detailed approach ensures that our stakeholders can make informed decisions based on a thorough analysis of our income streams and expenditures.

5. Exchange rate

Please note that the values are approximate and may vary slightly due to market fluctuations.

6. Market price risk of cryptocurrencies

Our revenue model primarily hinges on transaction fees, which can be a flat fee or calculated as a percentage of the transaction value. The exact fee may fluctuate depending on the payment type and the transaction value.

However, it's important to be cognizant of the risks associated with cryptocurrency price volatility, which could negatively impact our operational results. Market prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies play a crucial role in determining our future profitability. These prices have shown significant fluctuation month over month, matching the pattern of our operational results, and there is no certainty that they will follow historical trends.

A downturn in the market price of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other cryptocurrencies could negatively affect our earnings, the carrying value of our cryptocurrencies, and our projected future cash flows. It could also pose a challenge to our liquidity and capability to fulfill ongoing obligations.

In terms of accounting procedures, we record impairment charges on our cryptocurrencies when the market prices fall below the assets' carrying value.
