The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any future period.

Eco Bright presents basic earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statements of operation. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method, and convertible debt instrument, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
The calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share is as follows:

Income Taxes
Eco Bright records income taxes under the asset and liability method, whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and attributable to operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Accounting standards regarding income taxes requires a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the need to establish valuation allowances for deferred tax assets is assessed at each reporting period based on a “more likely than not” realization threshold. This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carryforward periods, the Company’s experience with operating loss and tax credit carryforwards not expiring unused, and tax planning alternatives.
Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Accounting standards regarding uncertainty in income taxes provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely, based solely on the technical merits, of being sustained on examinations. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
Eco Bright's consolidated financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, Eco Bright has recently accumulated losses since its inception and has had negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused management to express substantial doubt about the Eco Bright's ability to continue as a going concern are as follows:
The ability to continue Eco Bright’s operations depends on its ability to generate and grow revenue and results of operations as well as our ability to access capital markets when necessary to accomplish strategic objectives. We expect to continue to incur losses for the immediate future and will need additional equity or debt financing until we can achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operating activities. Our future capital requirements for operations will depend on many factors, including the ability to generate revenues and obtain capital.
There can be no assurance that Eco Bright will be able to achieve its business plans, raise any more required capital or secure the financing necessary to achieve its current operating plan. The ability of Eco Bright to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 - FOREIGN CURRENCY OPERATIONS
Eco Bright operates in foreign
countries, specifically, Tunisia during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023. As such, assets and liabilities
of foreign subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars at the rated of exchange in effect at year-end. The related translation
adjustments are made directly to other comprehensive income or loss. Income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange
in effect during the year. Foreign currency gains and losses are included in the results of operations and are generally classified in
other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Accumulated other comprehensive loss was $

Business Operations
The financial statements presented are those of Eco Bright Future, Inc. (“Eco Bright”, or the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries United Heritage, Sociedad Anonmima De Capital Variable (“UHS”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Universa Hub Africa (“UHSA”), collectively, (“UHA”). The Company is an artificial intelligence and blockchain technology company that utilizes real world tokenization to create a virtual investment vehicle on the blockchain linked to tangible assets such as real estate, precious metals, art and collectibles.

The following presents managements analysis of the consolidated financial condition of Eco Bright Future, Inc. and Subsidaries (Eco Bright) as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenues and Cost of Sales
We recognized $0 and $29,571 in revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 from providing non-recurring consulting services related to blockchain technology software development sales.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $46,700 during the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3,852 during the three months ended June 30, 2023. Operating expenses consisted of $46,019 and $0 in professional fees and $681 and $3,852 in general and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in professional fees is the result of increased legal and professional fees required as a result of the merger agreement and assumption of Eco Bright public reporting requirements.
Other Income and Expenses
Other net expenses were an immaterial $0 and $393 during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
8
Net Loss
As a result of the above, we recognized a net loss of $46,700 and net income of $26,112 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenues and Cost of Sales
We recognized $0 and $29,571 in revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 from providing non-recurring consulting services related to blockchain technology software development sales.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses were $59,108 during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $16,250 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Operating expenses consisted of $55,019 and $0 in professional fees, $0 and $14,999 in salaries and wages and $4,089 and $1,251 in general and administrative expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in professional fees is the result of increased legal and professional fees required as a result of the merger agreement and assumption of Eco Bright public reporting requirements.
Other Income and Expenses
Other net income was an immaterial $0 and $197 during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Net Loss
As a result of the above, we recognized a net loss of $59,108 and net income of $13,518 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
We anticipate losses from operations will increase during the next twelve months due to anticipated increased payroll expenses as we add necessary staff to continue planned operations and increases in legal and accounting expenses associated with maintaining a public reporting company. We expect that we will continue to have net losses from operations for several years until revenues become sufficient to offset operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Company
Current Assets
Current assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 totaled $20,549 and $17,400, respectively, consisting of $14,841 and $14,761 in cash, $1,625 and $1,657 in accounts receivable and $4,083 and $982 in other current assets.
Total Assets
Total assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 totaled $25,349 and $17,696, respectively, consisting of $20,549 and $17,400 in current assets and $4,800 and $296 in intangible assets and property and equipment, respectively.
Current Liabilities
Total liabilities were all current as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and consisted of accounts payable and accrued expenses of $22,225 and $10,868, and loans from related parties for operating expense advances totaling $55,455 and $0, respectively.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, our operating activities used net cash of $50,575, compared to net cash provided of $8,855 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Uses of cash from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2024 are mainly due to the net loss of $59,108, partially offset by $8,237 in changes in cash used from operating assets and liabilities as well as $296 in non-cash operating expenses. Sources of cash provided from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2023 are mainly due to the net income of $13,518 as well as $296 in non-cash operating expenses, partially offset by $5,254 in changes in cash used from operating assets and liabilities.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we used net cash of $4,800 to purchase an internet domain name. We did not use cash in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we received $55,455 in loans from officers and significant shareholders. We did have any cash financing activity during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
At June 30, 2024 we had a working capital deficit of $57,131, compared to working capital of $6,532 at December 31, 2023.
Going Concern
At June 30, 2024, we only have $25,349 in assets, $77,680 in current liabilities and a $71,701 accumulated deficit. Our current liquidity resources are not sufficient to fund anticipated level of operations for at least the next 12 months from the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. As a result, there is substantial doubt regarding the Company’ ability to continue as a going concern.
The ability to continue Eco Bright’s operations depends on its ability to generate and grow revenue and results of operations as well as our ability to access capital markets when necessary to accomplish strategic objectives. We expect to continue to incur losses for the immediate future and will need additional equity or debt financing until we can achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operating activities. Our future capital requirements for operations will depend on many factors, including the ability to generate revenues and obtain capital.
There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable or that debt or equity financing will be available to us. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance we will be successful in any of these goals.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements of any kind for the periods ended June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.
As of June 30, 2024, we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of June 30, 2024.
The Company had a significant deficiency in internal control over financial reporting.
A deficiency in internal control over financial reporting exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A reasonable possibility exists when the likelihood of an event occurring is either reasonably possible or probable as defined as follows:
Reasonably possible. The chance of the future event or events occurring is more than remote but less than likely.
Probable. The future event or events are likely to occur.
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over
financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness; yet important enough to merit attention
by the audit committee or those responsible for oversight of the entity’s financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None
Item 1A – RISK FACTORS
Any investment in our securities is highly speculative. The Company's business and ownership of shares of our common stock are subject to numerous risks. You should not purchase our shares if you cannot afford to lose your entire investment. You should consider the following risks before acquiring any of our shares.
We need additional capital.
We need additional financing to grow our operations. The amount required depends upon our business operations, and how quickly we grow. Varying based on growth strategies, it is estimated between $5,000,000 and $25,000,000 will have to be raised over the next 2 years. We may be unable to secure this additional required financing on a timely basis, under terms acceptable to us, or at all. To obtain additional financing, we will sell additional equity securities, which will further dilute shareholders' ownership in us. Ultimately, if we do not raise the required capital, we may experience delayed growth or need to cease operations.
We are dependent upon our key personnel.
We are highly dependent upon the services of Tomaz Strgar, our Chief Technology Officer. If he terminated his services with us, our business would suffer.
There is only a limited trading market for our securities.
Our Common Stock is traded on the OTC Pink Sheets. The prices quoted may not reflect the price at which you can resell your shares. Because of the illiquid nature of our stock, we are subject to rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that make it difficult for stockbrokers to solicit customers to purchase our stock. This reduces the number of potential buyers of our stock and may reduce the value of your shares. There can be no assurance that a trading market for our stock will continue or that you will ever be able to resell your shares at a profit, or at all.
Our management controls us.
Our current officers and directors own approximately 74% of our outstanding common stock and are able to affect the election of the members of our Board of Directors and make corporate decisions. Alexander Borodich, by his ownership of Class A Preferred Stock, has the right to vote 49% of our voting securities.
12
We have a going concern issue.
Eco Bright's consolidated financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, Eco Bright has recently accumulated losses since its inception and has had negative cash flows from operations until 2023, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused management to express substantial doubt about the Eco Bright's ability to continue as a going concern are as follows:
The ability to continue Eco Bright’s operations depends on its ability to generate and grow revenue and results of operations as well as our ability to access capital markets when necessary to accomplish strategic objectives. We expect to continue to incur losses for the immediate future and will need additional equity or debt financing until we can achieve profitability and positive cash flows from operating activities. Our future capital requirements for operations will depend on many factors, including the ability to generate revenues and obtain capital.
There can be no assurance that Eco Bright will be able to achieve its business plans, raise any more required capital or secure the financing necessary to achieve its current operating plan. The ability of Eco Bright to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Licensing and permissions to tokenize real world assets could take longer than expected in different jurisdictions.
Licensing and permission to tokenize real world assets legally in the jurisdictions in which we operate could be delayed or denied. If we are unable to obtain all the licenses we are expecting it could negatively impact our growth potential.
The Real World Asset (RWA) Tokenization Market is Highly Competitive and Fragmented.
There are a substantial number of companies attempting to enter this highly competitive market. We feel we have a good competitive advantage, however there are many companies we will compete with that are better funded than we are. There is no guarantee we will be able to take the market share we are expecting. Other risks associated can come from government intervention including, but not necessarily limited to, future government regulation limiting the scope of activities available to generate revenue and creating technological difficulties.
Reporting requirements under the Exchange Act and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, including establishing and maintaining acceptable internal controls over financial reporting, are costly and may increase substantially.
The rules and regulations of the SEC require a public company to prepare and file periodic reports under the Exchange Act, which will require that the Company engage in legal, accounting, auditing, and other professional services. The engagement of such services is costly, and we are likely to incur losses that may adversely affect our ability to continue as a going concern. Additionally, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires, among other things, that we design, implement and maintain adequate internal controls and procedures over financial reporting. The costs of complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it difficult for us to design, implement and maintain adequate internal controls over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls or discover material weaknesses in our internal control. In that case, we may not be able to produce reliable financial reports or report fraud, which may harm our overall financial condition and result in a loss of the investor confidence and a decline in our share price.
13
We cannot assure you that our Common Stock will be listed on an exchange.
Our common stock is currently traded on the Pink Sheets under the symbol EBFI. Our goal is to become a fully reporting company, and uplist to a larger exchange, if possible. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of the stock exchanges or quotation medium we are hoping to uplist to, or that we will be able to maintain a listing of our Common Stock on any stock exchange. After the filing of this Form 10, we expect that our Common Stock would continue to be eligible to trade on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more difficult to trade shares in our Common Stock or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our Common Stock. In addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if we failed to meet the criteria outlined in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities governed by such rule to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such a rule may deter broker-dealers from recommending or trading shares in our Common Stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital following a business combination.
Our Common Stock will likely be considered a “penny stock,” which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.
Our common stock is currently deemed “penny stock,” as that term is defined under the Exchange Act. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that the exchange or system provides current price and volume information concerning transactions in such securities). Penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors.” The term “accredited investor” generally refers to institutions with assets over $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or an annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse.
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. Moreover, brokers/dealers are required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is suitable for a prospective investor. A broker/dealer must receive a written agreement to the transaction from the investor setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. These requirements may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or dispose of them. This could cause our stock price to decline.
We have never paid dividends on our Common Stock, and it is not guaranteed that we will in the future.
We have never paid dividends on our Common Stock, we have this option as valid to discuss on the management level and approve it. There are no assurances or guarantees that we will be able to pay dividends.
We are an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012. We cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”). We may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that apply to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of specific accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are taking advantage of the extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards.
We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, although we will lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in three years, or if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30.
14
Our status as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act of 2012 may make it more challenging to raise capital as and when we need it.
Because of the exemptions from various reporting requirements provided to us as an “emerging growth company” and because we will have an extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards, we may be less attractive to investors, and it may be difficult for us to raise additional capital as and when we need it. Investors may be unable to compare our business with other companies in our industry if they believe that our financial accounting is not as transparent as other companies in our industry. If we cannot raise additional capital as and when we need it, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
We have the right to issue shares of preferred stock. If we were to issue preferred stock, it is likely to have rights, preferences, and privileges that may adversely affect the common stock.
We have preferred stock currently issued and outstanding and do have the ability to issue more. The issuance of these shares could adversely affect the common stock already outstanding. The aforementioned preferred stock allows the holder to vote 10 times for each share owned. Currently Alexander Borodich owns 10,000,000 shares representing 100,000,000 votes. These shares hold special voting rights but are not convertible into common stock of the company.
There are inherent risks associated with our limitation of our internal policies and procedures to determine whether crypto assets and crypto-asset related services and products offered or that we intend to offer are “securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(1)
Some of our policies and procedures are risk-based judgments made by the company and not a legal standard or determination binding on any regulatory body or court. This includes the risk that we could be compliant within the jurisdiction we are operating in but out of compliance within the Securities Division and Governing Boards of Public Companies. The laws are often changing and keeping up with the specific changes is very important and difficult to manage.
We have a potential requirement to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940
The company could be required to register as an investment company in the future. This could add additional requirements and additional expenses that could negatively impact the company and restrict our ability to implement certain aspects of our business plan.
We are currently applying for several licenses in different Jurisdictions. If they are not approved it could affect our growth rate.
We are currently applying for licenses in El Salvador and plan to quickly apply for licensing in Thailand and UAE. If these licenses do not get issued it would affect our ability to grow and would prohibit us from tokenizing many of the assets and commodities we are planning on tokenizing.
The use of AI can be expensive, unpredictable and carries its own risks that are not associated with our individual blockchain technology.
The use of AI can also create more regulatory stipulations and the everchanging environment could make AI implementation difficult or not profitable. Certain AI engines also carry with them security risks from an encryption aspect.
We plan to operate in El Salvador, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Indonesia and Guatemala. The risks associated with the various regimes and government oversite in these countries could impact our business.
The governments and regulations in the countries we plan to operate in could pass legislation affecting our plans for development and growth within the regions. Dealing with the regulatory environments in these countries can be risky and therefore could affect the growth, expansion and viability of the company in the future.
We plan to operate using licenses with El Salvador, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Indonesia and Guatemala. Any country can change regulations and make licensing and compliance more difficult and/or more expensive.
The operation of licensing across multiple jurisdictions can be difficult to keep up with current regulations and restrictions. Changes in leadership in the countries can also affect our licenses even after they are issued.
15
Risks Related to Real World Asset Tokenization.
There are risks associated with dealing with and issuing real world asset tokens. These risks include but are not limited to: risks of the underlying asset being damaged or stolen, storage costs, maintenance costs, the liquidity risks associated with selling the real world assets and the overall risk of theft of not only the tangible asset but also the token.
Blockchain Technology carries with is certain risks and compliance issues.
Blockchain technologies are heavily regulated and will likely become more regulated as it becomes more integrated in business and personal use cases. There are also risks associated with cyber criminals and fraud throughout the world. Blockchain also uses infrastructure that can be slowed or destroyed by natural disasters, power outages and other uncontrollable circumstances. There are also risks associated with blockchain due to cyber criminals and fraud throughout the world.
Blockchain Technology Regulatory developments could present the company with certain risks and compliance issues.
The blockchain technology regulatory environment is ever changing. Changes to the regulations could affect our ability to implement certain parts or all of our business plan. The areas in which we intend to operate are evolving their blockchain requirements and maintaining compliance with these changes can become expensive and very cumbersome for the company. Licensing requirements in many of the jurisdictions in which we intend to operate are evolving and also many are under their initial development stage. Historically countries have introduced more and more legislation as they continue to resolve issues related to blockchain regulation.
Blockchain Technology outage or impairment could significantly harm our company.
If our blockchain experienced an outage or impairment or attack from cyber criminals we could have our business model affected in many ways including but not limited to a complete loss of customer base, loss of a large portion of our customers, bad reputation for being an unsable blockchain or a questionable reputation for securing information as advertised.
