<u>RISKS</u>
Possible risks with our proposal are:

- Some stages are not ready for support from the Cardano blockchain for the game in the future.
- Negative influence from the cryptocurrency market.
<u>SOLUTION</u>
We fully anticipate the above risks as well as the solutions available to them.
In the long term, the cryptocurrency market is having a strong sustainable trend. Blockchain technology is being applied more and more popularly and especially positively in the gaming industry.
In addition, funding from the Catalyst may be delayed. We may be funding a seed round for the initial operating budget of the project.
Currently, we gather experienced engineers to research and realize products on the Cardano blockchain. Those things make us determined and confident to carry out this project successfully.
