COVID-19.
In
December 2019, a novel coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) was reported and in January 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”)
declared it a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. On February 28, 2020, the WHO raised its assessment of the COVID-19 threat
from high to very high at a global level due to the continued increase in the number of cases and affected countries, and on March 11,
2020, the WHO characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic.
COVID-19
has impacted some of our customers. Our business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which
are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While the Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have
been impacted, we have suffered less immediate impact as most staff could work remotely during the height of the pandemic and can continue
to develop our product offerings. Post-pandemic, we have adjusted our employees’ schedules to allow for both remote and non-remote
hours as needed. Notwithstanding, revenues relating to mobile applications in certain verticals such as dealerships and racetracks fell
and resulted in forbearance or cancellations during the pandemic.
Our
business involves the collection, storage, processing, and transmission of confidential information, customer, employee, service provider,
and other personal data, as well as information required to access customer assets. We have built our reputation on the premise that
our platform offers customers a secure way to transtransact act business..business. As a result, any actual or perceived security breach of us or our
third-party partners may:
Although
we have developed systems and processes designed to protect the data we manage, prevent data loss, and other security breaches, effectively
to respond to known and potential risks, and expect to continue to expend significant resources to bolster these protections, there can
be no assurance that these security measures will provide absolute security or prevent breaches or attacks. We may experience in the
future,future: breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities, or other
irregularities. Unauthorized parties may attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our customers, partners,
and third-party service providers, through various means, including hacking, social engineering, phishing, and attempting to fraudulently
induce individuals (including employees, service providers, and our customers) into disclosing usernames, passwords, payment card information,
or other sensitive information, which may in turn be used to access our information technology systems and customers’ crypto assets.
Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage,
and insiders. Certain threat actors may be supported by significant financial and technological resources, making them even more sophisticated
and difficult to detect. If we acquire a third-party entity, as to which we do not have any current plans, that acquisition may expose
us to unexpected security risks or increase costs to improve the security posture of the acquired company. Further, there has been an
increase in such threat actor activities as a result of the increased prevalence of hybrid and remote working arrangements in recent
years. As a result, our costs and the resources we devote to protecting against these advanced threats and their consequences may continue
to increase over time.
Successful
implementation of our growth strategy will also require significant expenditures possibly prior to the generation of any substantial
associated revenue and we cannot guarantee that these increased investments will result in corresponding and offsetting revenue growth.
Because we have a limited history operating our business at its current scale, it is difficult to evaluate our current business and future
prospects, including our ability to plan for and model future growth. Our limited operating experience at this scale, combined with the
rapidly evolving and volatile nature of the cryptoassetcrypto asset market in which we operate, and other economic factors beyond our control, reduces
our ability to accurately forecast quarterly or annual revenue accurately.

method. The new standard requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount
that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The adoption did
not have an impact in our consolidated financial statements, other than the enhancement of our disclosures related to our revenue-generating
activities.
The
Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company
obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. The Company acts
as a principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary obligor in the transactions.
Stock-Based Compensation – Stock Options
The Company grants stock options to employees, officers, directors and other eligible recipients under stock option agreements that may provide for either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options. The options generally provide the holder with the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a specified exercise price during the contractual term of the award and may become exercisable in installments based on the vesting provisions of the applicable agreement.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the award and is recognized over the requisite service period during which the award vests.
The fair value of stock options is estimated using an option-pricing model based on the terms of the individual award and relevant valuation assumptions, including the market price of the Company’s common stock, exercise price, expected term, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend yield.
For stock options that vest in installments, compensation cost is recognized over the applicable requisite service period in accordance with the vesting provisions of the award. The Company accounts for forfeitures, modifications, cancellations and settlements of stock option awards in accordance with the applicable provisions of ASC 718.
Warrants Issued in Connection with Subscription Agreements
The Company may issue warrants to purchase shares of its common stock in connection with subscription agreements and other equity financing transactions. The Company evaluates warrants and other freestanding equity-linked instruments at issuance to determine the appropriate classification as equity or liabilities in accordance with applicable accounting guidance, including ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
Warrants that are indexed to the Company’s own stock and meet the applicable requirements for equity classification are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity and are not subsequently remeasured. Warrants that do not qualify for equity classification are accounted for as liabilities, initially measured at fair value and subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
When common stock and warrants are issued together in a financing transaction, the Company allocates the proceeds among the instruments issued in accordance with their respective accounting classification and the applicable accounting guidance. Issuance costs are allocated to the instruments issued based on the applicable accounting treatment for each instrument.
Principles of Consolidation and Noncontrolling Interests
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries over which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of the equity in consolidated subsidiaries that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate component in the statements of changes in stockholders’ deficit in the consolidated balance sheets. Net income or loss, as applicable, are attributed to the Company and the noncontrolling interests based on their respective ownership interests.
Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. If the Company ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary, the Company deconsolidates the subsidiary and recognizes any resulting gain or loss in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.
The
Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 718 (“ASC 718-10”), which
records compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the explicit service period of three to five years.
ASC
718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.
The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods
in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method
of valuation for share-based awards. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant
using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex
and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the
term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk free interest rate.

Warrants that do not qualify for equity classification are accounted for as liabilities, initially measured at fair value and subsequently remeasured at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
When common stock and warrants are issued together in a financing transaction, the Company allocates the proceeds among the instruments issued in accordance with their respective accounting classification and the applicable accounting guidance. Issuance costs are allocated to the instruments issued based on the applicable accounting treatment for each instrument.
Principles of Consolidation and Noncontrolling Interests
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries over which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of the equity in consolidated subsidiaries that is not attributable, directly or indirectly, to the Company. Noncontrolling interests are presented as a separate component in the statements of changes in stockholders’ deficit in the consolidated balance sheets. Net income or loss, as applicable, are attributed to the Company and the noncontrolling interests based on their respective ownership interests.
Changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. If the Company ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary, the Company deconsolidates the subsidiary and recognizes any resulting gain or loss in accordance with applicable accounting guidance.
The
Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification Topic 718 (“ASC 718-10”), which
records compensation expense on a straight-line basis, generally over the explicit service period of three to five years.
ASC
718-10 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.
The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to be vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods
in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method
of valuation for share-based awards. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant
using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex
and subjective variables. These variables include but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the
term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk-free interest rate.
