Proceeds Purpose
1. Invest in listings on Crowd Genie platform listings (45%): Invest in the listings will allow CGCoins to gainfrom the interest earned that in turn will improve and rapidly increase the amount of funds availablefor any future buybacks. 2. Hire team (30%): Along with investment in listings on Crowd Genie, we will use the funds to expand our team. Specifically, set up a development centre in India, along with one in Singapore and expand the business development team to increase the user base of the Crowd Genie ecosystem, which in turn will increase the token usage rate. 3. Compliance and cyber security (10%): Crowd Genie already is a licensed, and regulated entity and we expect the KYC, AML/CFT and cyber security costs to increase as the size of the business increases. 4. Business development and overheads (15%): The remaining will be used for business development costs, and overheads such as rents and server costs.
