There is a strong need to better connect the traditional and crypto economies
while blockchain technology has unlocked an array of benefits, financial infrastructure has not
kept up, and as a result, significant value remains untapped and unnecessary risk is taken on

5. ROADMAP
20. that being said, there are several challenges that will need to be addressed to ensure a
successful initial coin offering and effective go-to-market strategy implementation
Strictly Private & Confidential - Do not Distribute
MARKET
- Poca logic still needs to be added to interact with smart contracts
- Anonymous payments (zero knowledge) currently complex / costly
Note. Ethereum and Bitcoin are pseudonymous, CryDRs aim to be anonymous similar to
Zcash
- Market has extreme volatility
- Market is currently heavily overvalued
Note. only exposure is from assets held through digital top-ups - transfers are never at risk
- All dev efforts dedicated to wallet / platform completion in time for
launch
- Currently, jibrel uses pseudonymous workarounds until zk-snarks
become more feasible / flexible / do not require a setup phase
- Limit digital assets held (instant divestment where possible)
- Build-out internal risk management capabilities
- Develop a financially conservative culture from Day 1
TECHNOLOGY
6. CHALLENGES
Page 20
RISKS & CHALLENGES MITIGATION STRATEGIES
COMPLIANCE
- AML / KYC / KYB compliance is critical / complex to manage
- Fundraiser must be managed with caution to ensure US investors
can realize returns lawfully and seamlessly
- First key hire is Head of Legal & Compliance
- JNT structured to pass Howey Test and Family Resemblance Test
- Back-to-back legal agreements where possible (exchanges, banks, NBFIs)
- Overly stringent internal compliance during first 36 months of operation
