Risk Change Over Time
- Accounting & Financial Operations - Risk 1Our operating results have and will significantly fluctuate, due to inherent volatility associated with the digital asset industry, including, but not limited to, the price of digital assets, regulatory scrutiny of certain digital assets or related products and services, or changes in applicable laws.
Our operating results are dependent on digital assets and the broader digital asset industry. Due to the highly volatile nature of the digital asset industry and the prices of digital assets, which have experienced and continue to experience significant volatility, our operating results have, and will continue to, fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in accordance with market sentiments and movements in the broader digital asset industry. Our operating results will continue to fluctuate significantly because of a variety of factors, many of which are unpredictable and in certain instances are outside of our control, including: - our dependence on offerings that are, in turn, dependent on digital asset trading activity, including trading volume and the prevailing trading prices for digital assets, whose trading prices and volume can be highly volatile; - our ability to attract, maintain, and grow our user base and engage our users; - changes in the legislative or regulatory environment, or actions by U.S. or foreign governments or regulators, including fines, orders, or consent decrees; - regulatory changes or scrutiny that impact on our ability to offer certain products or services; - increased regulatory certainty, which could lead to greater competition from traditional financial services firms and other competitors with broader access to financial resources; - our ability to continue to diversify and grow our revenue; - pricing of or temporary suspensions of our products and services; - investments we make in the development of products and services, as well as international expansion and sales and marketing; - adding digital assets to, or removing them from, our platform; - our ability to establish and maintain partnerships, collaborations, joint ventures, or strategic alliances with third parties; - market conditions of, and overall sentiment towards, the digital asset industry; - macroeconomic conditions, including interest rates, inflation, and instability in the global banking system; - adverse legal proceedings or regulatory enforcement actions, judgments, settlements, or other legal proceedings and enforcement-related costs; - the development and introduction of existing and new products and services by us or our competitors or the emergence of new competitors; - our ability to control costs, including operating expenses incurred to grow and expand our operations and remain competitive; - system failure, outages, or interruptions, including with respect to our digital asset platform and third-party digital asset networks, which have occurred in the past and will likely occur in the future; - our lack of control over decentralized or third-party blockchains and networks that may experience downtime, cyberattacks, critical failures, errors, bugs, corrupted files, data losses, or other similar software failures, outages, breaches, and losses; - breaches of security or privacy; - real or perceived improper or unauthorized use of, disclosure of, or access to confidential, proprietary, personal, or sensitive data; and - our ability to attract and retain talent. As a result of these factors, it is difficult for us to forecast growth trends accurately, and our business and prospects are difficult to evaluate. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of our business and the digital asset industry, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful, and you should not rely upon them as an indication of future performance. Quarterly and annual expenses reflected in our financial statements may vary significantly from historical or projected rates, and our operating results in one or more future quarters may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. As a result, the trading price of our Common Stock may be volatile. Investors should carefully consider the foregoing risks together with the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, including our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere herein.
- Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 2The future development and growth of the digital asset industry is subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to predict and evaluate.
If the market for digital assets declines or does not grow as we expect in terms of value, volume, or demand, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Further, the future growth and development of the digital asset ecosystem is uncertain. Blockchain technology, digital assets, smart contracts, dApps, and DeFi are components of a new and evolving paradigm that is subject to a variety of factors that are difficult to evaluate, including: - extreme price volatility or "black swan" events (i.e., highly improbable, unexpected occurrences with significant consequences that are extremely difficult to predict beforehand) with respect to different digital assets; - many blockchain networks have limited operating histories and are still in the process of development, which will affect the design, supply, issuance, functionality, and governance of their respective digital assets and underlying blockchain networks. Any of these factors could adversely affect their respective digital assets; - many blockchain networks are in the process of implementing software upgrades and other changes to their protocols, which could introduce bugs, security risks, and adversely affect the associated digital assets; - technical issues, such as bugs or vulnerabilities in protocols, have led to disabled functionalities, exposure of personal information, and theft of users' assets. These issues often require resolution by global miners, users, and developer communities, and their recurrence could undermine trust in digital assets; - with respect to hardware used in connection with wallets and blockchain networks generally, there are risks related to technological obsolescence, the vulnerability of the global supply chain and difficulty in obtaining new hardware; - several large networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana, are developing new features to address fundamental speed, scalability, and energy usage issues. If these issues are not successfully addressed or are unable to achieve widespread adoption, they could adversely affect the underlying digital assets; - many digital assets and their underlying blockchain networks have identified security issues, bugs, and software errors, some of which have been exploited by malicious actors. There are also inherent security weaknesses in some digital assets, e.g., when creators of certain blockchain networks use procedures which could allow hackers to counterfeit tokens. Any weaknesses identified with a digital asset could adversely affect its price, security, liquidity, and adoption. If a malicious actor or botnet (a volunteer or hacked collection of computers controlled by networked software coordinating the actions of these computers) obtains a majority of the compute or staking power on a blockchain network, the actor or botnet might be able to manipulate transactions, which could cause significant financial losses to holders, damage the network's reputation and security, and adversely affect its value; - the development of new technologies for mining, such as improved application-specific integrated circuits, and changes in industry patterns, such as the consolidation of mining power in a small number of large mining farms, could reduce the security of blockchain networks, lead to increased liquid supply of digital assets, and reduce a digital asset's price and attractiveness; - if rewards and transaction fees for miners or validators on any blockchain network are not sufficiently high to attract and retain miners or validators, a digital asset's network security and speed may be adversely affected, increasing the likelihood of a malicious attack; - many digital assets have concentrated ownership or an admin key, allowing a small group of holders to have significant unilateral control and influence over key decisions related to their blockchain networks or protocols, such as governance decisions and protocol changes, as well as the market price of such digital assets; - governance of many decentralized blockchain networks and protocols is by voluntary consensus and open competition, and many developers are not directly compensated for their contributions. As a result, there may be a lack of consensus or clarity on the governance of any particular blockchain network or protocol, a lack of incentives for developers to maintain or develop the network or protocol, and other unforeseen issues, any of which could result in unexpected or undesirable errors, bugs, or changes, or stymie such network or protocol's utility and ability to respond to challenges and grow; - many blockchain networks and protocols are in the early stages of developing partnerships and collaborations, any one or more of which may not succeed and adversely affect the usability and adoption of their respective digital assets; - digital assets have only recently become selectively accepted as a means of payment by retail and commercial outlets, and the use of digital assets by consumers to pay such retail and commercial outlets remains limited. Banks and other established financial institutions may refuse to (i) process funds for digital asset transactions; (ii) process wire transfers to or from digital asset exchanges, digital asset-related companies, and service providers; or (iii) maintain accounts for persons or entities transacting in crypto assets. As a result, the prices of various digital assets are largely determined by speculators, miners and validators, thus contributing to price volatility, which makes retailers less likely to accept digital assets as a form of payment in the future; - banks may not provide or may cut off banking services to businesses that provide digital asset-related services or that accept digital assets as payment, which could harm our banking infrastructure, limit us from operating in certain jurisdictions or limit product or service offerings, dampen liquidity in the market, and damage public perception of digital assets generally or any one digital asset in particular (such as bitcoin) and their or our utility as a payment system. These actions could decrease the price of crypto assets generally or individually; - there is a lack of liquid markets in certain digital assets, and these markets are subject to possible manipulation; - certain digital assets have concentrated ownerships, and large sales or distributions by holders of such digital assets, or "whales," could have an adverse effect on the market price of such digital assets; and - the characteristics of digital assets have been, and may in the future continue to be, exploited to facilitate illegal activity such as fraud, money laundering, tax evasion, and ransomware scams. Acceptance and/or widespread use of digital assets are uncertain, and the prices of digital assets can be extremely volatile. For example, since 2023, the trading price of bitcoin has fluctuated from a low of approximately $16,000 to highs above $100,000. Our revenue is substantially dependent on the prices of digital assets and the volume of digital asset transactions conducted on our platform. If such price or volume declines, this will materially adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.
Risk Highlights Q1, 2026
Risk Word Cloud
Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 48
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1In the event our shares trade under $5.00 per share, they will be considered penny stock. Trading in penny stocks has many restrictions, and these restrictions could severely affect the price and liquidity of our shares.
If our stock trades below $5.00 per share, our stock would be known as a "penny stock", which is subject to various regulations involving disclosures to be given to you prior to the purchase of any penny stock. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") has adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Depending on market fluctuations, our Common Stock would be considered as a "penny stock". A penny stock is subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established Members and accredited investors. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of these securities. In addition, he must receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. He must also provide certain written disclosures to the purchaser. Consequently, the "penny stock" rules may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and may negatively affect the ability of holders of shares of our Common Stock to resell them. These disclosures require you to acknowledge that you understand the risks associated with buying penny stocks and that you can absorb the loss of your entire investment. Penny stocks are low-priced securities that do not have a very high trading volume. Consequently, the price of the stocks is often volatile, and you may not be able to buy or sell the stock when you want to.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Future sales of substantial amounts of the shares of Common Stock by existing shareholders could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock.
If our existing shareholders sell substantial amounts of the shares, then the market price of our Common Stock could fall. Such sales by our existing shareholders might make it more difficult for us to issue new equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and place we deem appropriate. If any existing shareholders sell substantial amounts of shares, the prevailing market price for our shares could be adversely affected. The market price of our shares is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors such as: - variations in our actual and perceived operating results; - news regarding gains or losses of customers or partners by us or our competitors; - news regarding gains or losses of key personnel by us or our competitors; - announcements of competitive developments, acquisitions or strategic alliances in our industry by us or our competitors; - changes in earnings estimates or buy/sell recommendations by financial analysts; - potential litigation; - general market conditions or other developments affecting us or our industry; and - the operating and stock price performance of other companies, other industries and other events or factors beyond our control. In addition, the securities markets have from time-to-time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of certain companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of the shares. If we issue 8,500,000 shares of Common Stock in the proposed Forekast share exchange, existing stockholders will experience substantial dilution. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement we entered into on February 13, 2026, we expect to issue an aggregate of 8,500,000 shares of our Common Stock at the closing of the transaction, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions and the timing requirements applicable to the related information statement. Based on 8,625,813 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of February 9, 2026, the issuance of the Exchange Shares would represent approximately 49.63% of our Common Stock on a pro forma basis, assuming no other issuances. As a result, the ownership percentage of our existing stockholders would be materially diluted, and the market price of our Common Stock could decline. In addition, the transaction could reduce the voting power of our existing stockholders and may adversely affect earnings per share, book value per share and other per-share metrics.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3Together, our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lee, Chong Kuang, and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Loke, Che Chan Gilbert own a large percentage of our outstanding stock and could significantly influence the outcome of our corporate matters.
Currently, Mr. Lee, Chong Kuang, our CEO and his spouse own approximately 22% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, and Mr. Loke, Che Chan Gilbert, our CFO, and his sons in aggregate own approximately 16% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock, collectively 38%. As a result, Messrs. Lee and Loke are collectively able to exercise significant influence over all matters that require us to obtain shareholder approval, including the election of directors to our board and approval of significant corporate transactions that we may consider, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets. This concentration of ownership in our shares by executive officers will limit the other shareholders' ability to influence corporate matters and may have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring control over us.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 4NASDAQ may apply additional and more stringent criteria for our continued listing.
NASDAQ Listing Rule 5101 provides NASDAQ with broad discretionary authority over the continued listing of securities in NASDAQ, and NASDAQ may use such discretion to apply additional or more stringent criteria for the continued listing of particular securities or suspend or delist particular securities based on any event, condition, or circumstance that exists or occurs that makes continued listing of the securities on NASDAQ inadvisable or unwarranted in the opinion of NASDAQ, even though the securities meet all enumerated criteria for continued listing on NASDAQ. In addition, NASDAQ has used its discretion to deny continued listing or to apply additional and more stringent criteria in the instances, including but not limited to where the company engaged an auditor that has not been subject to an inspection by PCAOB, an auditor that PCAOB cannot inspect, or an auditor that has not demonstrated sufficient resources, geographic reach, or experience to adequately perform the company's audit. For the concerns, we may be subject to the additional and more stringent criteria of NASDAQ for our continued listing.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 5It may be difficult for overseas shareholders and/or regulators to conduct investigations or collect evidence within China.
Shareholder claims or regulatory investigations that are common in the United States generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to providing information needed for regulatory investigations or litigation initiated outside China. Although the authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the United States may not be efficient in the absence of mutual and practical cooperation mechanisms. Furthermore, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, or Article 177, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. While the detailed interpretation of or implementation rules under Article 177 have yet to be promulgated, the inability of an overseas securities regulator, such as the Department of Justice, the SEC, the PCAOB and other authorities, to directly conduct an investigation or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by you in protecting your interests. Some of our business operations are conducted in Hong Kong and the PRC through our Hong Kong and China subsidiaries. If the U.S. regulators carry out an investigation on us and there is a need to conduct an investigation or collect evidence within the territory of the PRC, the U.S. regulators may not be able to carry out such an investigation or evidence collection activities directly in the PRC under the PRC laws. The U.S. regulators may consider cross-border cooperation with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC by way of judicial assistance, diplomatic channels or regulatory cooperation mechanisms established with the securities regulatory authority of the PRC.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 6Our shares may be delisted and prohibited from trading in the United States under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, or the HFCAA, as amended by the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely our auditors. The delisting of our shares, or the threat of their being delisted, may materially and adversely affect the value of your investment.
The Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act ("HFCAA") was enacted on December 18, 2020. The HFCAA states if the SEC determines that a company has filed audit reports issued by a registered public accounting firm that has not been subject to inspection by the PCAOB for three consecutive years beginning in 2021, the SEC shall prohibit the company's shares from being traded on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. On March 24, 2021, the SEC adopted interim final rules relating to the implementation of certain disclosure and documentation requirements of the HFCAA. A company will be required to comply with these rules if the SEC identifies it as having a "non-inspection" year under a process to be subsequently established by the SEC. The SEC is assessing how to implement other requirements of the HFCAA, including the listing and trading prohibition requirements described above. On June 22, 2021, the U.S. Senate passed the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, and on December 29, 2022, legislation entitled "Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023" (the "Consolidated Appropriations Act") was signed into law by President Biden, which contained, among other things, an identical provision to the Accelerating Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act and amended the HFCAA by requiring the SEC to prohibit an issuer's securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years instead of three, thus reducing the time period for triggering the prohibition on trading. On December 2, 2021, the SEC adopted amendments to finalize rules implementing the submission and disclosure requirements in the HFCAA. The rules apply to registrants the SEC identifies as having filed an annual report with an audit report issued by a registered public accounting firm that is in a foreign jurisdiction and that the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate ("Commission-Identified Issuers"). The final amendments require Commission-Identified Issuers to submit documentation to the SEC establishing that, if true, it is not owned or controlled by a governmental entity in the public accounting firm's foreign jurisdiction. The amendments also require that a Commission-Identified Issuer that is a "foreign issuer," as defined in Exchange Act Rule 3b-4, provide certain additional disclosures in its annual report for itself and any of its consolidated foreign operating entities. Further, the release provides notice regarding the procedures the SEC has established to identify issuers and to impose trading prohibitions on the securities of certain Commission-Identified Issuers, as required by the HFCAA. The SEC will identify Commission-Identified Issuers for fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2020. A Commission-Identified Issuer will be required to comply with the submission and disclosure requirements in the annual report for each year in which it was identified. If a registrant is identified as a Commission-Identified Issuer based on its annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, the registrant will be required to comply with the submission or disclosure requirements in its annual report filing covering the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. On December 16, 2021, PCAOB announced the PCAOB HFCAA determinations (the "PCAOB determinations") relating to the PCAOB's inability to inspect or investigate completely registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China of the PRC or Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region and dependency of the PRC, because of a position taken by one or more authorities in the PRC or Hong Kong. Our auditor, SFAI Malaysia PLT ("SFAI"), is headquartered in Selangor, Malaysia. and is the independent registered public accounting firm that issued the audit reports included in this annual report, and as auditors of companies that are traded publicly in the United States and firms registered with the PCAOB, are subject to laws in the United States pursuant to which the PCAOB conducts regular inspections to assess their compliance with the applicable professional standards. We are not aware of any reasons to believe or conclude that SFAI would not permit an inspection by PCAOB or may not be subject to such an inspection. SFAI is outside the jurisdiction of Hong Kong and China and has assured us that if requested, they shall cooperate and deliver the work papers of our Chinese subsidiaries to the PCAOB for inspection. We cannot assure you that the jurisdiction in which our current auditor is located will not implement rules forbidding our auditor to be subject to PCAOB inspection. If such rules were to be implemented, we may have to incur substantial costs and time to appoint a new auditor to re-audit our financials. This could cause the market price of our shares to be materially and adversely affected, and our securities could be delisted or prohibited from being traded on the national securities exchange if we fail to do so timely or at commercially reasonable times. On August 26, 2022, the PCAOB announced that it had signed a Statement of Protocol (the "SOP") with the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Ministry of Finance of China. The SOP, together with two protocol agreements governing inspections and investigations (together, the "SOP Agreement"), establishes a specific, accountable framework to make possible complete inspections and investigations by the PCAOB of audit firms based in mainland China and Hong Kong, as required under U.S. law. The SOP Agreement remains unpublished and is subject to further explanation and implementation. Pursuant to the fact sheet with respect to the SOP Agreement disclosed by the SEC, the PCAOB shall have sole discretion to select any audit firms for inspection or investigation and the PCAOB inspectors and investigators shall have a right to see all audit documentation without redaction. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB Board determined that the PCAOB was able to secure complete access to inspect and investigate registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and Hong Kong and voted to vacate its previous determinations to the contrary. However, should PRC authorities obstruct or otherwise fail to facilitate PCAOB's access in the future, the PCAOB Board will consider the need to issue a new determination. The SEC may propose additional rules or guidance that could impact us if our auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspection. For example, on August 6, 2020, the President's Working Group on Financial Markets, or the PWG, issued the Report on Protecting United States Investors from Significant Risks from Chinese Companies to the then President of the United States. This report recommended the SEC implement five recommendations to address companies from jurisdictions that do not provide the PCAOB with sufficient access to fulfill its statutory mandate. Some of the concepts of these recommendations were implemented with the enactment of the HFCAA. However, some of the recommendations were more stringent than the HFCAA. For example, if a company's auditor was not subject to PCAOB inspection, the report recommended that the transition period before a company would be delisted would end on January 1, 2022. The SEC had announced that the SEC staff were preparing a consolidated proposal for the rules regarding the implementation of the HFCAA and to address the recommendations in the PWG report. The implications of possible additional regulation in addition to the requirements of the HFCAA and what was recently adopted on December 2, 2021, are uncertain. Such uncertainty could cause the market price of our shares of Common Stock to be materially and adversely affected, and our securities could be delisted or prohibited from being traded on the national securities exchange earlier than would be required by the HFCAA. If our shares are unable to be listed on another securities exchange by then, such a delisting would substantially impair your ability to sell or purchase our shares when you wish to do so, and the risk and uncertainty associated with a potential delisting would have a negative impact on the price of our shares.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 7You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.
We are a Nevada corporation, but most of our assets are and will be located outside of the United States. Principally our operations are conducted in Hong Kong, Malaysia, and the PRC. In addition, most of our officers and directors are nationals and residents of a country other than the United States. Most of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon them. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors since he or she is not a resident of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Hong Kong or other Asian countries would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts.
