Interim Unaudited Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Company have beenSecurities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interimhave been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do notstatements include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. Inadjustments, which in the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, consideredare necessary forto a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included.

The accompanying unaudited condensedposition and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 8-K/A for the period from March 9, 2017 (“Inception”), through June 7, 2017, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 25, 2017. The resultsas of operations for the three months, and for the period from inception, March 9, 2017, through September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any future interim period.2022.

Liquidity

The Company had limited revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and since Inception through September 30, 2017, which were primarily limited to realized gains on investments in cryptocurrency. The Company has raised an aggregate of $4,976,011 in cash from common stock issuances from Inception through September 30, 2017, and had $2,591,404 in cash as of September 30, 2017 and working capital of $3,433,848. However, the Company has a limited operating history and its prospects are subject to risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by early-stage companies. These risks include, but are not limited to, the uncertainties of availability of financing and achieving future profitability and the success of an unproven business plan in an emerging industry. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on investment capital to fund operating expenses. The Company intends to position itself so that it may be able to raise funds through the capital markets. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available at terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, raise capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial Statement Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Crypto and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Crypto Sub. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Accounting

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements based upon the accrual method of accounting, recognizing income when earned and expenses when incurred.

The Stock Sale, the Stock Dividend,Basis of Presentation and the Share Exchange, shall collectively be referred to as the “Transaction”. The Transaction was treated as a reverse acquisitionPrinciples of Croe, Inc., a public company for financial accounting and reporting purposes. Accordingly, only the historical operations of Crypto Sub, prior to the Transaction, are incorporated herein.Consolidation

The comparative financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2016 have been omitted as the Company had no operations during the period.

Use of Estimatesestimates

The preparation of condensedthese consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires usmanagement to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base ourThe Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believeit believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include but are not limited to the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, valuation and recoverability of investments, valuation allowances of deferred taxes, and stock-basedshare-based compensation expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, any change in these estimates or their related assumptions could have an adverse effect on ourthe Company’s operating results.

Cash and cash equivalents

CashThe Company defines its cash and cash equivalents are generally comprised ofto include only cash on hand and certain highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than three months.ninety days or less. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions, the balances of which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. Management believes that the risk of loss due to the concentration is minimal.

EquipmentInvestments in cryptocurrency

Equipment isInvestments were comprised of several cryptocurrencies the Company owned, of which a majority was Bitcoin, that were actively traded on exchanges. During 2018, the Company sold most of its investments and during 2019 wrote-off the remainder of all those investments because there was no method to obtain liquidity for those investments. The Company recorded this recovery as other income in its financial statements. As previously disclosed, the Company has ceased operations of its former cryptocurrency investment segment, and the Company liquidates newly issued/accessible assets from old investments as promptly as practicable for the sole purpose of winding down the Company’s legacy cryptocurrency investment segment.

The Company records its investments as indefinite-lived intangible assets at cost less impairment and depreciated usingare reported as long-term assets in the straight line method overconsolidated balance sheets. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the estimated useful life. Normal repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expendituresindefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that materially adapt, improve, or alteran impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the natureCompany concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the underlying assets are capitalized. When propertyasset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. The primary exchanges and equipment are retiredprincipal markets the Company utilized for its trading were Kraken, Bittrex, Poloniex, and Bitstamp.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had written off the value of its investments in cryptocurrency.

Investments non-cryptocurrency

The Company previously invested in simple agreement for future tokens (“SAFT”) and a simple agreement for future equity (“SAFE”) agreements. The SAFT agreements provide for the issuance of tokens in anticipation of a future token generation event, with the number of tokens predetermined based on the price established in each respective agreement. The SAFE investment included provisions that provide for either equity or otherwise disposedtokens or both. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022 the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to income.Company had written-off its investments in non- cryptocurrency.

Stock Based CompensationBusiness combination

The Company accounts for its stock based compensation under Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” usingpurchase price of an acquired company is allocated between tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed from the fair value based method. Under this method, the compensation cost is measured at the grant dateacquired business based on their estimated fair values with the valueresidual of the award and is recognized overpurchase price recorded as goodwill. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our operating results from the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair valuedates of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity investments.acquisition.

Fair Value MeasurementsIncome taxes

The Company recognizes and discloses the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). Each level of input has different levels of subjectivity and difficulty involved in determining fair value.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Net loss per common share

The Company reports earnings per share (“EPS”) with a dual presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed as net income divided by the weighted average of common shares for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issued through stock options or warrants. Since the Company had a net loss as of September 30, 2017, the Company had no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. As a result, the basic EPS and the diluted EPS are the same.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records the realized gain or loss on the investments on a trade date basis. The changes in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the investments are measured to market on the last day of every month at 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, based on publicly available cryptocurrency exchanges. The Company classifies investment in cryptocurrency as trading investments. Trading generally reflects active and frequent buying and selling, and is generally used with the objective of generating profits on short-term differences in price.

The Company recognizes consulting revenue when the service is rendered, the fee for arrangement is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Income tax payable of $800 reflects the minimum franchise tax for the State of California.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceedsexceed the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

ImpairmentAs of long lived assets

March 31, 2023, we are subject to federal taxation in the U.S., as well as state taxes. The Company analyzes its long-lived assets for potential impairment. Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present andhas not been audited by the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the net carrying amount of the assets. In such cases, the carrying values of assets to be held and used are adjusted to their estimated fairU.S. Internal Revenue Service.

3. Recently Issued and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Standards

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Rounds and II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception.This ASU changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. The amendments also require entities to recognize the effect of the down round feature on earnings per share when it is triggered. ASU 2017-11 should be adopted retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption, only to financial instruments outstanding as of the initial application date. ASU 2017-11 will be effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, which will be the Company’s fiscal year 2020 (beginning July 1, 2019). Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Essentially, an entity will not have to account for the effects of a modification if: (1) The fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the modified award isinputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the same immediately beforehighest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and after the modification; (2)lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the vesting conditionsvaluation (Level 3 measurements). Each level of input has different levels of subjectivity and the difficulty involved in determining fair value.

Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurable date.

Level 2 Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. Level 3 Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The carrying amounts of the modified award are the same immediately beforeCompany’s financial assets and after the modification;liabilities, including cash, accounts payable and (3) the classificationaccrued expenses approximate fair value because of the modified award as either an equity instrument or liability instrument is the same immediately before and after the modification. short maturity of these instruments.

Revenue recognition

The new standard becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018. We do not expect that ASU No. 2017-09 will have a material impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which, among other things, requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets related to the rights and obligations created by those leases. The new standard also requires new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard becomes effective for us on January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be appliedCompany recognizes revenue under a modified retrospective approach. We are evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”ASC 606”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance when it becomes effective. In March, April, May and December 2016, and in September 2017, the FASB issued additional guidance related to Topic 606. Topic 606 affects any entity that enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards.. The core principle of Topic 606the new revenue standard is that a company willshould recognize revenue when it transfersto depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

In doing so, companies will needorder to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current guidance. These may include identifyingidentify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract estimatingand identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met: The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct), and the entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).

If a good or service is not distinct, the good or service is combined with other promised goods or services until a bundle of goods or services is identified that is distinct.

The transaction price is the amount of variable consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. When determining the transaction price, an entity must consider the effects of all of the following:

Variable consideration is included in the transaction price and allocatingonly to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The transaction price is allocated to each separate performance obligation. Topicobligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. The transaction price allocated to each performance obligation is recognized when that performance obligation is satisfied, at a point in time or over time as appropriate.

The Company adopted ASC 606 is effectiveas of January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective transition method for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, which will be the Company’s fiscal year 2019 (beginning July 1, 2018), and entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustmentcontracts as of the date of adoption.initial application. There was no cumulative impact on the Company’s retained earnings.

During the period ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s main source of revenue was consulting and education services to numerous customers provided by and through BTA. The adoptionCompany has determined that revenue should be recognized over time, as the service is provided. The Company considered the criteria in ASC 606 in reaching this determination, specifically:

The consulting arrangement meets more than one of the criteria above.

Share-based compensation

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, the Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant date fair value of granted instruments and recognizes the costs in financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options.

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC No. 2018-07, Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions. Previously, share-based payments to nonemployees was accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 505, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, which required compensation cost to be remeasured at fair value at each reporting period when the award vests. As a result, stock option-based payments to non- employees resulted in significant volatility in compensation expense in prior years.

The Company accounts for its share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards. Using this guidancemodel, fair value is notcalculated based on assumptions with respect to the (i) expected volatility of the Company’s common stock price, (ii) expected life of the award, which for options is the time over which employees and non- employees are expected to hold their options prior to exercise, and (iii) risk-free interest rate.

Net loss per common share

The Company reports earnings per share (“EPS”) with a dual presentation of basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed as net income divided by the weighted average of common shares for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issued through stock options, or warrants. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company had no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Therefore, the basic EPS and diluted EPS are the same.

Financing strategies may include but are not generated sufficient cash flows from operating activitieslimited to, meet our obligations and commitments, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

However, our principal sources of cash have been from private placements of commoncapital stock, which has resulteddebt borrowings, partnerships, and/or collaborations. There can be no assurance that any of these future-funding efforts will be successful. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The following table summarizes the primary sources and uses of cash for the periods presented below:

Trends, Events, and Uncertainties

The blockchain technology market is dynamic and unpredictable. Although we will undertake compliance efforts, including efforts with commercially reasonable diligence, there can be no assurance that there will not be a new or unforeseen law, regulation or risk factor which will materially impact our ability to continue our business as currently operated or raise additional capital to foster our continued growth.

Other than as discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our 2022 Annual Report, we are not aware of any trends, events, or uncertainties that are likely to have a material effect on our financial condition.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintainOur management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, (asas defined in RulesRule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of September 30, 2022.

Based upon the evaluation of our disclosuremanagement recognized that any controls and procedures, asno matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of September 30, 2017,achieving their desired control objectives, and our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer) concluded that, asmanagement is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such date, management identified certain deficiencies that were determined to be material weaknesses.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in disclosurepossible controls and procedures, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of the material weaknesses described below, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of end of the period covered by this report to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules.procedures.

The specific material weaknesses identified by the Company’s management as of end of the period covered by this report include the following:

Despite the material weaknesses reported above, our management believes that our financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report. In an effort to remedy any material deficiencies, management intends to segregate duties and controls among different officers and other key employees, whereby each officer is expected to have distinct responsibilities implementing checks and balances over the control of assets to protect the Company against any possibility of misstatement.

PART II-OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, and we are not aware of any pending or potential legal actions.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

An investment in our securities involves certain risks relating to our business and operations. You should carefully consider these risks, together with all of the other information included in this prospectus, before you decide whether to purchase shares of the Company. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to our Business

Because our directors and executive officers are among our largest stockholders, they can exert significant control over our business and affairs, and have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of investors.

Certain of our executive officers and directors own a significant percentage of our outstanding capital stock. As of the date of this Memorandum, our executive officers, directors, holders of 5% or more of our capital stock and their respective affiliates, directly and indirectly, beneficially own over 83% of our outstanding voting stock. The interests of such persons may differ from the interests of our other stockholders, including investors. As a result, in addition to their board seats and offices, such persons will have significant influence over and control all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how the Company’s other stockholders, including investors, may vote, including the following actions:

The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceeding that it believes would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors.

In evaluating us and our common stock, we urge you to carefully consider the effectrisks and other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Risk Factors disclosed in Item 1A. of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business consolidation, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offerPart I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the common stock that in turn could reduce our stock pricefiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as well as additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.

We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which, shareholders may have more limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.

Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or the Nasdaq Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, and audit committee oversight. We have not yet adopted any of these corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

The elimination of personal liability against our directors and officers under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights held by our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenses.

Our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws limit the personal liability of our directors and officers for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer to the extent permissible under applicable state law. Further, our Articles of Incorporation and our Bylaws provide that we are obligated to indemnify each ofcurrently deem immaterial, that could materially and adversely affect our directors or officers to the fullest extent authorized by applicable state law and, subject to certain conditions, advance the expenses incurred by any director or officer in defending any action, suit or proceeding prior to its final disposition. Those indemnification obligations could expose us to substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against our directors or officers, which we may be unable to afford. Further, those provisions and resulting costs may discourage us or our stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against any of our current or former directors or officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, even if such actions might otherwise benefit our stockholders.

If we are unable to retain our staff, our business and results of operations could be harmed.or financial condition.

ITEM 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities.

The Company was in violation of Rafael Furst, our Chief Investment Officer, and other employees and contractors which assist him in management and operation of the business. If we are unable to retain Mr. Furst’s services and to attract other qualified senior management and key personnel on terms satisfactory to us, our business will be adversely affected. We do not have key man life insurance covering the life of Mr. Furst and, even if we are able to afford such a key man policy, our coverage levels may not be sufficient to offset any losses we may suffer as a result of Mr. Furst’s death, disability, or other inability to perform services for us.

We may acquire businesses and enter into joint ventures that will expose us to increased operating risks.

As part of our growth strategy, we intend to enter into joint venture arrangements intended to complement or expand our business and will likely continue to do socovenants in the future. These joint ventures are subject to substantial risks and liabilities associated with their operations, as well asNote that require the risk that our relationships with our joint venture partners do not succeed inCompany make the manner that we anticipate.

Risks Related to the Ownership of our Common Stock

There is a limited trading market for our common stock, which may make it difficult for to sell shares of our common stock.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market on the OTC Markets Group, Inc. and has had limited trading activity since inception. An active trading market for our shares may never develop or be sustained. As a result, investors in our common stock must bear the economic risk of holding those shares for an indefinite period of time. We do not now, and may not in the future, meet the initial listing standardspayment of any national securities exchange. As a result, our stockholders may find it difficult to obtain an accurate determination as to the market value of their shares of our common stock, and may find few buyers to purchase their stock. As a result of these and other factors, it may not be possible to resell shares of our common stock atprincipal or above the price for which they were purchased, or at all. Further, an inactive market may also impair our ability to raise capital by selling additional equity in the future, and may impair our ability to enter into strategic partnerships or acquire companies or products by using shares of our common stock as consideration.

We have no plans to pay dividends.

To date, we have paid no cash dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, earnings generated from our operations will be retained for use in our business and not to pay dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be the sole resource of gain for stockholders for the foreseeable future. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

We may issue more shares in a future financing which could result in substantial dilution.

Any future merger or acquisition effected by us would result in the issuance of additional securities and the substantial dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Moreover, the common stock issued in any such merger or acquisition transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of common stock held by our then existing stockholders. Our board of directors has the power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without stockholder approval. To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued in connection with and following a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests of our stockholders will occur and the rights of the holders of common stock might be materially and adversely affected.

We may become subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions, in which case, you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. Our common stock may become a “penny stock”, in which case, we would become subject to Rule 15g-9interest due under the Exchange Act, or the “Penny Stock Rule”. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers. For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, if applicable, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common shares and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our common shares in the secondary market.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

If our common stock becomes subject to the Penny Stock Rule, we do not anticipate that it will qualify for an exemption therefrom. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, or shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and, in anticipation of which, the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

In general, under Rule 144, a non-affiliated person who has held restricted shares of our common stock for a period of six months may sell into the market all of their shares, subject to the Company being current in our periodic reports filed with the Commission. A significant portion of our outstanding shares will become eligible for sale in the public market prior to the end of 2017.

As of November 14, 2017, there were approximately 168,125 shares subject to outstanding warrants, 937,512 shares subject to outstanding options and an additional 4,062,488 shares reserved for future issuance under our 2017 Equity Incentive Plan, all of which will become eligible for sale in the public market to the extent permitted by any applicable vesting requirements or Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

A Digital Asset such as cryptocurrency may be used, among other things, to buy and sell goods and services. Digital Asset networks are a new and rapidly evolving industry. The growth of the Digital Asset industry is subject to a high degree of uncertainty. The factors affecting the further development of the Digital Asset industry include:ITEM 6. Exhibits.

A decline in the popularity or acceptance of Digital Assets may harm the price of the Shares. There is no assurance that any service providers necessary to accommodate the cryptocurrency network will continue in existence or grow. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the availability of and access to Digital Asset service providers will not be negatively affected by government regulation or supply and demand of cryptocurrency.

Currently, there is relatively limited use of cryptocurrency in the retail and commercial marketplace in comparison to relatively extensive use by speculators, thus contributing to price volatility that could adversely affect an investment in the Shares.

As relatively new products and technologies such as cryptocurrency have only recently become selectively accepted as a means of payment for goods and services by many major retail and commercial outlets, and use of cryptocurrency by consumers to pay such retail and commercial outlets remains limited. Banks and other established financial institutions may refuse to process funds for cryptocurrency transactions; process wire transfers to or from cryptocurrency exchanges, cryptocurrency-related companies or service providers; or maintain accounts for persons or entities transacting in cryptocurrency. Conversely, a significant portion of cryptocurrency demand is generated by speculators and investors seeking to profit from the short- or long-term holding of cryptocurrency. Price volatility undermines cryptocurrency’s role as a medium of exchange as retailers are much less likely to accept it as a form of payment. Market capitalization for cryptocurrency as a medium of exchange and payment method may always be low. A lack of expansion by cryptocurrency into retail and commercial markets, or a contraction of such use, may result in increased volatility, which could adversely impact an investment in the Shares.

The SEC issued a Report of Investigation concluding that virtual coins, tokens or other digital assets may be deemed securities and subject to the federal securities laws, including registration under the Securities Act and the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”).

A Report of Investigation by the SEC during the second quarter of 2017 found that tokens offered by a virtual organization were securities and therefore subject to the federal securities laws, and further concluded that issuers of distributed ledger or Blockchain technology-based securities must register offers and sales of such securities under the Securities Act unless they are exempt from such registration. Additionally, securities exchanges providing for trading in these securities must register unless they are exempt. As a result, the Company may be required to register and comply with additional regulation under the Investment Company Act, including additional periodic reporting and disclosure standards and requirements and the registration of the Company as an investment company. Such additional registration may result in extraordinary, nonrecurring expenses of the Company, thereby materially and adversely impacting the Shares. Whether a particular investment transaction involves the offer and sale of a security, regardless of the terminology or technology used, will depend on the facts and circumstances, including the economic realities of the transaction. Thus, it is uncertain how various digital assets will be classified by the SEC, and the level of regulation, if any, will be applied as a result. Further, regulation over securities exchanges in the United States may incentivize the Company to invest, and to advise its clients to invest, solely in digital assets traded on foreign exchanges.

If regulatory changes or interpretations require the regulation of cryptocurrency under the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended (the “CEA”) by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, an independent agency with the mandate to regulate commodity futures and option markets in the United States (the “CFTC”), the Company may be required to register and comply with such regulations.

Current and future legislation, CFTC rulemaking and other regulatory developments, including interpretations released by a regulatory authority, may impact the manner in which cryptocurrency is treated for classification and clearing purposes. In particular, cryptocurrency may not be excluded from the definition of “commodity future” by such future CFTC rulemaking or interpretation. As of the date of this prospectus, the Company is not aware of any rules or interpretations that have been proposed to regulate cryptocurrency as commodity futures. The Company cannot be certain as to how future regulatory developments will impact the treatment of cryptocurrency under the law.

To the extent that cryptocurrency is deemed to fall within the definition of a commodity future pursuant to subsequent rulemaking by the CFTC, the Company may be required to register and comply with additional regulation under the CEA, including additional periodic report and disclosure standards and requirements. Moreover, the Company may be required to register as a commodity pool operator. Such additional registration may result in extraordinary, nonrecurring expenses, thereby materially and adversely impacting the Shares.

Recent exposure by the SEC of initial coin offerings used by certain issuers as a means to generate oversized returns and the SEC’s limited experience regulating the digital currency market indicates a possibility that the Company may unintentionally invest in a fraudulent coin offering which the SEC may not detect until after we have sustained significant losses.

The Company invests in various digital currencies. Although we conduct due diligence and take reasonable measures to make prudent investments and coin offerings are subject to heightened oversight and scrutiny by the SEC, coin offerings are highly susceptible to fraud and regulators have limited experience in the growing digital currency market. The SEC may not yet have adequate controls and review procedures to detect a fraudulent coin offering before significant losses are sustained.

The recent ruling of the United States Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) designating bitcoin as a commodity gives authority to the CFTC to police fraudulent activities on exchanges where bitcoin is traded.

The CFTC recently designated bitcoin as a commodity, which makes exchange markets on which bitcoin is traded subject to enforcement action by the CFTC. Although the CFTC has suggested it is not particularly focused on pursuing such enforcement at this time, and in fact there may be some limits on its ability to do so without a specific connection to commodities derivatives markets, in the event that the CFTC does pursue such enforcement and ultimately shuts down an exchange on which cryptocurrencies in which we invest are traded, it may have a significant adverse impact on our investment portfolio.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use Of Proceeds.

Unregistered Sales of Securities

On September 8, 2017, the Company issued to eleven accredited investors an aggregate of 437,488 shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $2.00 per share for aggregate proceeds of $874,975.

On September 20, 2017, the Company issued to two accredited investors an aggregate of 62,500 shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $2.00 per share, payable in digital currency equal to aggregate proceeds of approximately $125,000.

On September 25, 2017, the Company issued to nine accredited investors (i) an aggregate of 672,500 shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $2.00 per share, and (ii) three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 168,125 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, for aggregate proceeds of $1,345,000.

The shares issued on September 8, 2017, September 20, 2017 and September 25, 2017 were issued in transactions that were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder inasmuch as the securities were offered and sold solely to accredited investors and the Company did not engage in any form of general solicitation or general advertising in making the offering.
