Ethos Vision
Bridge crypto with the
traditional financial
system
There are many hurdles with digital assets for consumers and financial institutions to
overcome before they are widely accepted and available.
4
Challenges with Mainstream Crypto Adoption
Custody Centralized custody is prone to hacking, regulatory concerns, and legal
challenges.
Accessibility Difficult to buy and sell. Takes hours, days or even weeks to exchange
currencies and fiat.
Lack of Credibility There are not many credible companies in the space with seasoned teams.
Regulatory Compliance The SEC has placed digital assets into a “grey box” which scares investors
and institutions.
Fees Exchanges charge high fees to buy, sell and transfer digital assets.
5
Provide tools and APIs to enable
businesses and consumers to
easily and safely interact with
digital assets.
Enable decentralized self-custody at
scale, unlocking the mainstream
potential of blockchain-based
solutions.
Create a multi-sided ecosystem
that connects consumers and
institutions with the blockchain.
Our Strategy is Threefold
1 2 3
Strategy
Ethos Product Offerings
The easiest way to send, store and
receive digital crypto assets.
Enterprise-grade Blockchain APIs.
7
How the Universal
Wallet Works
Mobile Client
The Universal Wallet is accessible through an
Android and iPhone mobile app, which is
available to anybody for free.
The Universal Wallet uses the
cryptographic storage area of iPhones
and Android devices similarly to a
Trezor or Ledger Nano S
Mobile Client
SmartKey
The user creates a
cryptographic “SmartKey”
on their device.
This key is never
transmitted over the
internet, and only the
user knows it.
Mobile Client
SmartKey
Self Custody
This enables “self-
custody” - enabling
people to safekeep
their own digital
assets.

Self-
Custody

Self-Custody is at the center of
Ethos’ technical and business
strategy.

To support extended
asset types, Ethos hosts
Coin Nodes - copies of
the coin’s actual chains.
These go through a “Block
Listener” that looks for
addresses it knows, and a
Block Parser that abstracts
the transactions.
● Speed: Doesn’t require Blockchain
syncing.
● Scalability: Can support millions of
users around the world
● Interoperability: Protocols are
abstracted, eliminating dependencies
on any individual chain
This is a revolutionary approach
to Blockchain that is unique to
Ethos and has unique
advantages:

Push Authorizations
This allows trusted

device for “signature”
using their fingerprint on
bio-enabled mobile
devices.

  • 4. There are many hurdles with digital assets for consumers and financial institutions to overcome before they are widely accepted and available. 4 Challenges with Mainstream Crypto Adoption Custody Centralized custody is prone to hacking, regulatory concerns, and legal challenges. Accessibility Difficult to buy and sell. Takes hours, days or even weeks to exchange currencies and fiat. Lack of Credibility There are not many credible companies in the space with seasoned teams. Regulatory Compliance The SEC has placed digital assets into a “grey box” which scares investors and institutions. Fees Exchanges charge high fees to buy, sell and transfer digital assets.
  • 5. 5 Provide tools and APIs to enable businesses and consumers to easily and safely interact with digital assets. Enable decentralized self-custody at scale, unlocking the mainstream potential of blockchain-based solutions. Create a multi-sided ecosystem that connects consumers and institutions with the blockchain. Our Strategy is Threefold 1 2 3 Strategy

  • 8. Mobile Client The Universal Wallet is accessible through an Android and iPhone mobile app, which is available to anybody for free.
  • 9. The Universal Wallet uses the cryptographic storage area of iPhones and Android devices similarly to a Trezor or Ledger Nano S
  • 10. Mobile Client SmartKey The user creates a cryptographic “SmartKey” on their device. This key is never transmitted over the internet, and only the user knows it.
  • 11. Mobile Client SmartKey Self Custody This enables “self- custody” - enabling people to safekeep their own digital assets.

These go through a “Block Listener” that looks for addresses it knows, and a Block Parser that abstracts the transactions.
  • 14. ● Speed: Doesn’t require Blockchain syncing. ● Scalability: Can support millions of users around the world ● Interoperability: Protocols are abstracted, eliminating dependencies on any individual chain This is a revolutionary approach to Blockchain that is unique to Ethos and has unique advantages: Coin Nodes Block Listener Block Parser Universal Wallet Self-Custody Mobile Client SmartKe y

Editor's Notes

  1. Hello this is Shingo. I’m the founder and CEO of Ethos. Thank you for joining me today for a Community Strategic Overview. I’m going to share our plans with the community, and discuss our strategy for the future.
  2. Before we start, I have a few general disclaimers from our counsel. (Read the text in the slide)
  3. At Ethos, we are trying to bring Crypto mainstream and bridge crypto with the traditional financial system. The traditional finance system includes entities such as banks, wealth managers, broker / dealers and other financial institutions. Digital assets include existing assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum but also new blockchains that are emerging every day and tokenized financial instruments and securities that we believe will emerge over the next few years. At Ethos, we’re creating both a technical and legal framework to build this bridge.
  4. Crypto and Ethos face many challenges in going mainstream. Here are a few. (Discuss each briefly in 2-3 sentences, don’t read the slide)
  5. Read each strategy point, and briefly discuss each.
  6. At Ethos we have two main product offerings: the Ethos Universal Wallet and Ethos Bedrock. Both were completely designed and engineered by Ethos, and they work seamlessly together. I will discuss each in detail.
  7. Intro to next section
  8. Intro to next section
  9. The Universal Wallet is built completely on Ethos Bedrock through an API layer. You can think of the Universal Wallet as the first Bedrock reference application. Every coin and transaction on the Universal Wallet runs programmatically through Bedrock.
  10. Discuss each solution in 2-3 sentences.
  11. Here’s how we use the Smartkey to unlock all coins with a single Smartkey.
