Our intellectual property rights are integral to our business. We utilize a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and
confidentiality policies to protect our proprietary rights. We routinely apply and

127

submit registration for our intellectual property rights related to our products and services in the United States and internationally, particularly focusing on filing new patent applications for
U.S. invention patents related to fintech technology. We have registered 15 patents and 4 pending patent applications, including 1 registered patent and 1 pending patent application in the United States. We have 12 registered trademarks in the
United States and 103 registered trademarks internationally including in Taiwan. We have been running a long-term intellectual property incentive program to encourage employees to provide their creative ideas.

Our intellectual property rights protection and management is implemented through the in-house team.
We maintain an effective chart of trademark asset management, including maintaining records of trademark-related assets, documents, and registration certificates. We regularly monitor the patent publications and issued patents of potential
competitors, and analyze the patent portfolio of the new competitors for researching their strengths and weaknesses. We also engage outside counsel to seek their opinion about intellectual property portfolio strategy and to coordinate with their
local representations to carry out the application filing and maintenance in multiple jurisdictions.

Our databases are backed up across different regions using AWS, which could reduce the risk of service interruptions in the case of a regional server or system compromise. All of our data in the database and files are encrypted and all data undergo
integrity verification. For custody of digital assets, we use a Multi-Party Computation (MPC) architecture for private keys management. The MPC architecture splits private keys into multiple shards distributed across different nodes, and these nodes
are located in highly secure data centers, with each private key shard protected through envelope encryption, which collectively reduces the likelihood of unauthorized access to a complete private key. During storage and transmission, the private
key shards are encrypted and protected using AWS Key Management Services, which provides FIPS-certified security via Hardware Security Modules (HSM). The encryption system provides an extra layer of
