RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR PLATFORM AND BLOCKCHAIN/DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO PROTECT THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF OUR TRADE SECRETS, OUR BUSINESS AND COMPETITIVE POSITION COULD BE HARMED.
Significant elements of our intended products and services are based on unpatented trade secrets and know-how that are not publicly disclosed. In addition to contractual measures, we try to protect the confidential nature of our proprietary information using physical and technological security measures.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS CLAIMS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE DISTRIBUTE LEDGER TECHNOLOGY.
Third parties may assert intellectual property claims relating to their source code, including Distributed Ledger Technology. Regardless of the merit of any intellectual property or other legal action, any threatened action that reduces confidence in distributed ledger technology’s long-term viability may adversely affect an investment in us.
Overview of the BDTP™ Platform
Blackstar has built the technology based upon the Quantum Ledger Database, a blockchain framework from Amazon Web Services (“AWS”), and to use the AWS Cloud for transaction data storage. The BDTP™ would offer a web-based interface for trading transactions as well as an Application Programming Interface (API) that directly accesses all transactions stored on the BDTP™. In June 2020, BlackStar and Artuova, a custom software development company, successfully completed a production ready user interface for the BDTP™ platform, which is feature-complete.
Regulatory Challenges of our Business Concept (BDTP)
BlackStar has always recognized that digital equities must be registered or otherwise have an exemption from registration within the existing SEC regulations and guidelines. BlackStar’s aim is to develop BDTPTM, a digital share trading platform, to trade free-trading BlackStar common stock only. The regulatory challenges presented come from integration of the platform into the existing broker-dealer ecosystem, approvals/advice of and compliance with the rules and regulations of OTC Markets Group, SEC, FinCen, IRS, anti-money laundering rules, or FINRA. These rules encompass the functionality of the system, cybersecurity laws, and state and federal financial laws. No assurance can be given that such regulatory approvals will be obtained in a timely manner or at all.
Everything that I post is just my informed opinion and is simply an invitation to debate. Trade on your own due diligence please..
