Subsequent Actual Crypto Contribution
According to the mutual understanding of both parties, the second-phase actual Crypto contribution will be advanced based on the completion of the initial investment and the strategic investor’s deep involvement in management. A joint working group has been established, responsible for designing the asset structure, demonstrating compliance pathways, and executing the arrangements for the Crypto contribution. Regarding the asset structure, factors such as market liquidity, volatility characteristics, and alignment with the Company’s treasury objectives will be comprehensively considered to determine the specific composition, which is expected to encompass a mix of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins.
