3 Intro NextHash is a global entity comprised of several units across the world that has the vision to combine the traditional financial industry with brand new digital asset class called security tokens, by harnessing the power of blockchain technology. NextHash is the parent company of Nexinter, whose brand has been created to uniquely identify its Exchange business and more in general to address any trading-related transactions of digital assets. It has then created a state-of-the-art blockchain platform, namely https: / that allows easy and liquid access to crypto trading with goal to frictionless integrate the so-called institutional investors as well as a new class of retail investors to the new digital security world. NextHash, along with their brands like Nexinter, has already established a global presence and already obtained financial licenses in various jurisdictions to fully comply with the latest financial directives and to address the whole worldwide markets of a new asset class, called digital securities. In short, NextHash is the corporate entity of Nexinter. First, we do it. Then we communicate. This is just the beginning of our vision of a regulated environment that drives inclusion based on blockchain technology that is accessible to all! We will get there! We have the trust of our initial investors who invested a lot in our company for the development of the exchange and the release of the essential licenses that made us compliant. Now we want to scale up and bring inclusion among all. With your help we can really speed-up the roadmap to achieve your and our goals. President & Founder Ana Benčič

4 What is our IEO about Our mission is to drive financial inclusion. Up until now, common people start investing their money into company stocks or equity several years after professional investors, because it requires business understanding, in-depth financial knowledge and network connections. And because they are not given the chance even if they had wished or spotted an opportunity. We envision a future where anyone is being offered the opportunity to be aware, self-educated and to participate to the value creation process of the companies of the future, the new stocks. At early stage, as professionals do. Think about IPOs and current stock valuations, don t you believe it is time to rebuild the rules of company s valuations to truly reflects market value? This is a time game; it requires to step at early stage into such process. We have built our Nexinter exchange because we strongly believe that it will represent the heart of the ecosystem for a new category of investors, companies seeking to grow their capital, investment funds, venture capital, family offices, traders and so on. The exchange is not just a listing platform to provide access to primary and secondary markets, but it is an effective marketplace where business meets communities and investors, borderless, 24 by 7. Our IEO goal is to build this global community of the future of money that will timely interact with such an ecosystem. We will create all this, by closely introducing and presenting companies that will issue the new stocks, called security tokens, and their values to our community, at an early stage, creating inclusion and proximity, with the goal to match them with a brand-new category of the financial world that we will shape. Early stage doesn't mean to replace traditional seed funding into a sort of tokenized ICOs, that were mostly investments out of thin air. We will be extremely selective to allow the participation into this economy to companies that share the same vision and principles we have. We aim at redefining the connection between people and finance, and our IEO is just the beginning of a long journey. Don t you feel to be always late when it comes to investing? Let s join us to our Nexinter journey by participating to our IEO and come on board! At early stage. Daniele Mensi Chief Executive Officer

5 5 The global situation and the future Market cap The regulators position Since its breakthrough, blockchain technology has gained traction in every industry and has become a very important asset class. Following the massive increase in the value of Bitcoin and other altcoins in late 2017, it reached current market cap of 265 billion USD and daily trading volume of 4 billion USD on exchanges. Over the Counter (OTC) OTC desk is a key element of crypto trading landscape. Across 2018, institutional entities have entered the market and increased daily trading volumes from an average of 100 million USD to 12 billion USD. Governments and Regulators have become wary of the increasing issue to protect its people from manipulations and thefts. New Policies Additional regulation policies for crypto exchanges being implemented by governments around the world, are triggering interest of institutional investors for the crypto space. Example of such regulation is the 5th Anti-Money Laundering Directive (5AMLD) adopted in 2018 by the European Union, which imposed new regulations on cryptocurrency exchanges and custodians operating in Europe. Security Token Offering (STO) White market vs black market As the crypto markets continue to contemplate digitalised securities with the potential to disrupt the $1.6 trillion private placement market, agile entrepreneurs and organizations are working on novel solutions to translate existing financial structures onto the blockchain Security Token Offering. The future in crypto will bring a fully regulated space where the world's biggest investors and funds will be allocating their capital. Legal protection Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) An Initial Exchange Offering, as the name suggests, is a token offering managed and executed on the platform of a cryptocurrency exchange. As opposite to the ICO (Initial Coin Offerings), the IEO is fully administered by the Exchange itself that should provide guarantees about business model, company structure, execution capability and compliance. This represents a mean to raise funds with the sale of its newly issued tokens. Initial Coin Offering (ICO) introduced an innovative way of raising capital for SMEs around the globe but without any legal protection for the investors. The future of private placements Security Token Offering (STO) will replace not just ICO format but also traditional private placement market.

10 10 Market Analysis According to Bloomberg s article, Cryptocurrency Exchanges Are Raking in Billions of Dollars, digital-asset exchanges are among some of the best winners of the cryptocurrency boom. Among the top 10 digital-asset exchanges, some are generating upwards of $3 Million in fees per day and heading to over $1 Billion per year: Binance Upbit Huobi Bittrex Bithumb OKEx Bits Blockchain Bitfinex Bit - Z GDAX Bitstamp WE X Kraken HitBTC CoinEgg BTCC EXX Gemini Poloniex bitflyer Digital assets exchanges are making millions in trading revenue per day Daily revenue (Est.) 0.5 M 1.5 M 2.5 M 3.5 M Figure 8. Leading exchanges *Source: Bloomberg Competitors, like China s Binance and OKEx out of Hong Kong, are handling the largest volume of trading, $1.7 Billion per day. Binance reported $200+ monthly Million profit since 2018, nearing numbers of Germany s leading financial institution, Deutsche Bank. Other Asian-based competitors such as Huobi, Bitfinex, Upbit, and Bithumb all process between $600 Million and $1.4 Billion per year in trading values. Asia s prominence in the market can be explained by the concentration of Asian-based cryptocurrency miners from the early days of Bitcoin. Lower electricity costs in Asia led to an advantage. However, as the lucrative digit-asset exchange industry expands, potential competition from public companies and traditional financial firms may arise and push crypto exchanges to lower costs and be more transparent to stay competitive. These more conventional and traditional financial institutions may even try to acquire crypto platforms to get a better strategic position in the market. In South Korea, large multi-billion-dollar conglomerates such as Shinhan Bank, Nexon, and Kakao operate all major crypto exchanges. Nexinter s DSO (Digital Securities Offering) is a segment of the ecosystem dealing with the newer idea of security token offerings. Unlike cryptocurrencies and utility tokens, these security tokens are backed by tangible assets.

11 11 Legal Structure of a Token UTILITY TOKENS SECURITY TOKENS CRYPTOCURRENCIES Description: It s best to think of a Utility Token as a pre-paid voucher for non-existing services Description: A token that behaves like a security Description: A token that is a pure cryptocurrency Characteristics: Closely tied to the functionality of the issuing network application Internal network/app currency but not necessarily attempting to be a currency Grants owners the right to actively contribute to the system vs. passive investor role Avoids security-like features Characteristics: Showcases security-like features, e.g. voting on decisions regarding the issuing entity, dividends, or profitshares Holders are regarded as owners Little or insufficient utility Characteristics: Acts as a store of value and medium of exchange Not emitted by a central authority against which owners have claims Examples: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Cardano *Source: Threat of New Entry Supplier Power Threat of Substitution Buyer Power Security Token Offering vs Initial Coin Offering Security Token Offering Low: Prior assets, profits, revenue of company, etc. needed to back security token. A security token represents something tangible in a company. Low: Companies which back security tokens are tied to the token, similar to a security or a stock. High: Very similar to securities such as stock. Holders looking for features in security tokens such as dividends, profit sharing, and voting can be found among other securities. High: Holders are considered owners and have voting powers, similar to a security. Holders are also protected by regulation Initial Coin Offering (Utility Tokens) High: Few regulations in to prohibit new initial coin offering. High: Low success rate among initial coin offerings, and crowdfunding is difficult. The large amount of competition in the industry gives investors many routes to choose from. High: Very saturated market with many cryptocurrencies and utility tokens to choose from, not even considering more traditional investments. Low: Avoids security-like features, and unregulated. Holders can get burned by fraudulent or risky utility tokens.

12 12 against pump-and-dump schemes in ICOs. Larger institutions and smarter money is interested in investing in STOs. Competitive Rivalry Medium: Security Tokens are a new, secure investment to bring capital into the crypto space and to attract new capital for startup funding. Because of their security-like protections, fraud is less of a liability as well. Low: Utility tokens have historically been more of a liability, however new regulations and the need to change will better the outlook on utility tokens. Main competitors in the traditional Exchange business field of Nexinter are Binance, Coinbase, Upbit, Bithumb, OKEx, Huobi, Bitfinex. Nevertheless, the competitive differentiators of products and services by Nexinter include: Nexinter is licensed to offer fiat-crypto payments Free of charge deposits and withdrawals 0.25% Trading Fee (Cumulative) Trades in BTC, ETH, XRP, LTC, BCH paired with USD and EUR (with possibility to add other fiat and cryptocurrencies to the trading platform) Best ask and bid prices on the market (shared liquidity pool market maker) Strong international networks (Especially in the West) Decades of experience High processing power of 1.2 million orders per second Legal compliance Asset protection Ease of use Customer segment NextHash with its Nexinter Exchange platform target professional, less experienced, and even new cryptocurrency traders. Nexinter is fully compliant, secure, and user friendly to meet the needs of these customers. Nexinter OTC Desk is designed for professional and secure partners. The OTC Desk provides worldwide counter-party networks for large volumes. The Nexinter DSO Platform is designed for businesses suitable for the Nexinter ecosystem.

13 13 NextHash Environment To the existing Nexinter Exchange Platform which is headquartered and operates in the European Union, NextHash will be incorporating two more exchanges: Nexinter Pro in Gibraltar and I-Nexinter in Dubai, UAE. Nexinter Pro will be operating in Gibraltar as it is becoming a blockchain and crypto friendly jurisdiction, especially for security tokens. The demand of institutional traders for the crypto market is increasing, but there is no exchange platform infrastructure that would satisfy their requirements. Thus, Nexinter Pro will have the features that will target institutional traders on the UK market. It will also function as a safety precaution against the uncertain Brexit conditions of the UK market, which seems to be closing. We, nevertheless, strongly believe of a positive market reaction by the UK Brexit and we are doing this only to safeguard in case of worst-case scenario. Nexinter Pro s main points are: First only institutional trading platform for crypto and digital assets Combined with traditional assets trading Licensed in Gibraltar and UK Listing and trading digitized funds, STOs, ETFs etc. Offering more features, swaps, etc. to the institutional traders Becoming the first regulated liquidity provider for the institutional markets NIXT as the Nexinter-Pro in-house utility token I-Nexinter will be operating in Dubai, UAE. Emirate of Dubai has a goal of becoming a blockchain capital of the world by 2020 and to shift all the financial transactions to blockchain. NextHash is already intensely present in Dubai and the middle east region as it has subsidiary company headquartered there. With our great middle east relation network, we have a vision to establish a first Sharia compliant STOs and digital assets exchange. I-Nexinter's main points are: Targeting a 2 billion Muslim population More than 2 million retail traders Introducing a Sharia Board of directors being compliant with the Sharia law Getting licenses in MENA and APAC region (starting in UAE and Malaysia) I-Nexinter's HQ in Dubai, UAE Offering the listing of Sharia compliant STOs Potential turnover of more than 300 million USD per month NIXT as the I-Nexinter in-house utility token

Roadmap

15 15 NIXT - The Nexinter IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) NextHash s focus is on establishing an ecosystem with five verticals: Exchange Platform, OTC Desk, Market making Liquidity provider, Custodian Service and most importantly Digital Security Offering (DSO). The DSO is the main driver of growth of the Nexinter ecosystem as the others will play a supportive role to self-sustain the ecosystem s development. In order to create market awareness and customers inclusion, a framework has been structured to address any type of future investors of DSO or simply a digital asset trader, no matter if beginner or experienced. The goal of NIXT The Nexinter IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) is three-fold: 1. ENGAGEMENT: to build a new digital engagement as early as possible with new categories of traders, with full focus on compliance and security 2. INCLUSION: to build a leaner Digital Security Offering framework by starting to engage at earlier stage with companies that have planned to launch a DSO (Digital Security Offering) and provide them the benefit of an end-to-end competitive and transparent offering 3. ADOPTION: to leverage upon such an engagement to build the most liquid, user friendly and competitive end-to-end Digital Security Offering Platform in the world, to drive a broader inclusion to the financial world. Last but not least, most of Digital Security Offerings are prohibited to the retail clients in light of regulatory uncertainty and structuring costs. Our goal is to reverse and to push as much as possible the need to start addressing the retail client as early as possible into the STO (Security Token Offering) or DSO (Digital Security Offering) and we are fully committed in doing so. Nexinter Private Placement Offering In the current financial world (traditional and crypto), the security offerings of potential unicorn or decacorn companies are limited to accredited investors as they are licensed and have big amounts of funds to allocate to their investments, hence retail investors are excluded and can participate only at a later stage typically at IPO timing or beyond. NextHash has a different brand vision that is to include retail investors at an unprecedented earlier stage to invest at same timing than professional and accredited investors. This of course if the token offering has been structured by its issuer so as to have proper Regulatory approvals to address retail investors into any concerned jurisdiction. To provide a worldwide opportunity, NextHash has created a token offering called IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) that is own offering on own Exchange of own utility token, called NIXT, following the stronger security and compliance rules. NIXT token holders will receive the benefit to participate in private placements of Digital Security Offerings as well as professional investors, as early as them, with exactly the same conditions. Anybody will be able to join the Nexinter Private Placement Offering by just being a NIXT token holder and invest in the future Digital Securities being handled, issued and listed by Nexinter. Thus, we will open the financial investment sector to all, not just the few selected investors and consequently democratize the rigid traditional financial industry and make it transparent with the inclusive characteristic. NIXT token holders will receive the benefit to participate in private placements of Digital Security Offerings with an allowance that is represented by the amount of NIXT by the total supply at the time of DSO purchase request. NextHash will publicly announce DSO projects in the pipeline, with companies that have potential to become new unicorns by the end of IEO. Furthermore, Nexinter will handle the NextHash s own offering, planned by Q

16 16 NIXT Token holding benefits In addition of participating to private placement of DSO, NIXT token holders will receive the discount benefits on trading fee for Nexinter Exchange Platform, they will receive a free Nexinter debit card and free participation to the Nexinter trading contest on a monthly basis with minimum 1,500 USD reward pool.

That means that NIXT tokens fall outside the scope of the Markets in

18 18 Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID II), the Electronic Money Directive, the Investment Services Act and the Financial Institutions Act and thus don t classify as Securities, Electronic Money or Virtual Tokens.

21 21 Team Ana Bencic, President & Founder Ana Bencic is the President & Founder of NextHash Group. She is a veteran entrepreneur oriented to scale industries she is active in. Her life philosophy is to FIRST DO IT, then COMMUNICATE, TEACH and CRITICIZE (if necessary). Seeing all the ICOs promising the UNDELIVERABLE, she decided to fund NextHash on her own with her dedicated core team, as well as family, angel investors and friend s financial help. She was determined to first build her vision and only afterwards go for an IEO with Nexinter s utility token. Once the initial stages are completed her goals is to DISRUPT the IPO industry with her STO concept and her digital asset platform for STOs. Through Nexinter s IEO she wants to teach the community that NO utility token is such, if clients cannot gain immediate availability of its benefits in services or products already on the market. Each and every one of the so-called utility tokens, based on a promise for a potential benefit in the UNKNOWN future, have characteristics of SECURITIES and shouldn`t be considered as utility tokens. That is because of the high risk of not delivering the PROMISE by the companies and their teams and the need to first RAISE the CAPITAL and DELIVER that PROMISE only afterwards. NO PROMISES, but FACTS is what drives Ana! More about Ana on her LinkedIn profile: https: /
