 asset trading platforms may be subject to larger and/or more frequent sudden declines than assets traded on more traditional exchanges. Tools to detect and deter fraudulent or manipulative trading activities may not be available to or employed by digital asset trading platforms or may not exist at all. The closure or temporary shutdown of digital asset trading platforms due to fraud, business failure, hackers or malware, or government-mandated regulation may reduce confidence in WLD and can slow down its mass adoption.

Negative perception, a lack of stability in the digital asset trading platforms, manipulation of trading platforms by customers, and/or the closure or temporary shutdown of such trading platforms may reduce confidence in WLD generally and result in greater volatility in the market price of WLD and the Common Stock. Furthermore, the closure or temporary shutdown of a WLD trading platform may impact the Company’s ability to determine the value of its WLD holdings.

The Worldcoin network relies on the Internet and proprietary hardware (such as the Orb for biometric verification). A significant disruption of Internet connectivity or the failure of the Orb hardware could disrupt the Worldcoin network’s functionality until such disruption is resolved.

Worldcoin, like other cryptocurrencies, is susceptible to various forms of cyberattacks, including denial-of-service attacks, border gateway protocol hijacking, and other security breaches. If such attacks occur, participants may lose faith in the security of WLD, which could affect its value and consequently the value of the Common Stock.

The Worldcoin ecosystem also relies on smart contracts and other blockchain-based technologies, which are subject to technical vulnerabilities, coding errors, security flaws, and exploits. Any vulnerability in a smart contract or the Worldcoin protocol could result in the loss or theft of WLD or other digital assets, which could have a materially adverse impact on our business.
