Market Development - Introduction

Scrypt Ecosystem

  • Litecoin and Dogecoin are the dominant blockchains in the Scrypt space
  • Litecoin is challenging Bitcoin for the lead in transaction volume in 2024
  • Merge mining efforts are increasing—boosting miner revenue, enhancing network security, supporting adoption, huge benefit for the ecosystem

ETF Outlook

  • Multiple Litecoin and Dogecoin ETF applications are in progress
  • Anticipated to drive institutional inflows and overall ecosystem growth
  • SEC appears to view proof-of-work coins as commodities*
  • BlackRock has listed LTC as a key risk factor in its Bitcoin ETF application

Market Development & Price

Scrypt Algorithm: >100% Increase in 2024

Scrypt Algorithm: Merge Mining

Key Takeaways:

Huge Economic Benefit – If you aren't merge-mining, you're doing it wrong.

  • Enhances the Attractiveness of Scrypt Mining Especially when compared to SHA-256.
  • Makes Scrypt a Stronger Algorithm Choice for New PoW Projects e.g., \$MEOW.
  • Environmentally Positive More efficient use of existing resources.

Hashrate Value Is Not Solely Price-Dependent – It self-adjusts based on network dynamics.

Case Study: 10 MW Farm

A 10 MW farm is likely to join PP after Mining Disrupt.

Estimated Monthly Revenue (Based on Hardware Type):

  • If the farm runs entirely on SHA-256 (e.g., using S19): \$4,052 – \$12,157
  • If the farm runs entirely on Scrypt (e.g., using L7): \$9,468 – \$28,405

Estimated Annual ROI from Client Acquisition:

• 240% – 1200%, depending on efficiency.

Significantly higher if the farm uses state-of-the-art equipment.

Important Considerations for the Future

Short-Term Goals:

  • Initiate and ramp up mass production; improve mask set quality
  • Expand Powerpool's service offerings and accelerate growth in existing verticals
  • Develop and mature the data centre business assess potential for hosting services

Mid- to Long-Term Goals:

  • Identify the optimal strategy for entering the SHA-256 hardware market
    • The SHA-256 Market emits at least 15x the value daily compared to Scrypt
  • Mature and commercialize Edge AI capabilities

Selected Key Risk Factors

Development Risk:

• Risk related to R&D activities (Low)

Financial Risk:

• Risk that the capital raise may not be completed, potentially impacting operations and scaling plans (Low – EGA on April 30th)

Technology Upscaling Risk:

• Inherent risks associated with advancing from TRL 5 to TRL 6–8 (Moderate)
