Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
As of September 30, 2023 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
MetaWorks
Platforms, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of
On February 14, 2018, the parent company “ICOx Innovations Inc.” changed its name to “CurrencyWorks Inc.”. On August 24 2022 “CurrencyWorks Inc.” changed its name to “MetaWorks Platforms, Inc.”.
On August 1, 2017 the Company incorporated a Nevada subsidiary, AppCoin Innovations (USA) Inc., which is used to provide blockchain consulting services. On February 14, 2018, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “AppCoin Innovations (USA) Inc.” to “ICOx USA, Inc.” On September 3, 2019, the Company changed its name from “ICOx USA, Inc.” to “CurrencyWorks USA Inc.”.
On November 28, 2018, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, GN Innovations, Inc. to provide blockchain technology opportunities to the sports and entertainment industry by working with large and well-established brands. Effective December 5, 2018, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “GN Innovations, Inc.” to “GNI, Inc.” Effective February 6, 2019, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “GN1, Inc.” to “sBetOne, Inc.”. On August 12, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary sBetOne, Inc. (“sBetOne”) entered into a business combination with a related party, VON Acquisition Inc. (“VON”), whereby sBetOne became a wholly owned subsidiary of VON. The acquisition of SBetOne by VON was voided on March 31, 2022 after the Company’s interest in SBetOne was diluted to non-controlling, due to shares issued to creditors for settlement of debt. SBetOne is therefore no longer a consolidated subsidiary from March 31, 2023 but rather and investment of the Company.
On June 22, 2021, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, Motoclub LLC, (“Motoclub”) to create a marketplace for digital automotive collectibles.
On June 22, 2021, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, EnderbyWorks, LLC, (“EnderbyWorks”) to create a direct-to-consumer, feature-length film viewing and distribution platform delivering feature-length films and digital collectible entertainment content as NFTs.
The Company’s business model is to provide a turnkey set of services to develop and integrate Web 3.0 / Metaverse technologies, NFT, blockchain, and cryptocurrency technologies. The Company’s services include strategic planning, project planning, structure development and administration, business plan modeling, technology development support, whitepaper preparation, due diligence reporting, governance planning and management, and movie distribution.
Going Concern
These
unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America of (“US. GAAP”) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are expressed in US Dollars. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes contained herein as part of the Company’s Quarterly Report in its Form 10-Q filing under the Securities Exchange Commission.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform with current reporting.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. CurrencyWorks USA Inc. (formerly ICOx USA, Inc.) and EnderbyWorks are wholly-owned subsidiaries on September 30, 2023. MotoClub is the only majority-owned subsidiary on September 30, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the only wholly-owned subsidiary was CurrencyWorks USA Inc, and the majority-owned subsidiaries were MotoClub and EnderbyWorks. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and these differences could be material.
The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the estimates used to calculate the fair value of certain liabilities, the derivative liability, present value of note payable and note receivable, the valuation of the investments and any impairment and the net book value of long-lived assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments, such as cash on account with commercial banks, certificates of deposit or money market funds that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less. All cash balances are held by major banking institutions.
Contingent Liabilities
The Company accounts for its contingent liabilities in accordance with ASC No. 450 “Contingencies”. A provision is recorded when it is both probable that liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
With respect to legal matters, provisions are reviewed, and financial information is adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31,2022, the Company was not a party to any litigation.
| 10 |
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements. ASC 740 provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized. ASC 740 also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have determined that the Company does not have uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for the years 2020, 2018, and prior. Based on evaluation of the 2020 transactions and events, the Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions that require measurement.
Our policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, and have not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended September 30, 2023 or year ended December 31, 2022.
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and the state of California. The Company’s tax returns for tax years from 2020 to recent filings remain subject to potential examination by the tax authorities.
Accounts Receivable
The collectability of accounts receivable is determined by the Company’s legal obligation for payment by the customer, as well as the ability of the customer to pay its debts. The carrying amount of accounts receivable represents the maximum credit exposure of this balance.
Accounts
receivable balances relate to the consulting services business and are reported at their net realizable value. From management’s
best estimate there is
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all diluted potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of warrants or stock options (Note 10 and Note 16 respectively). Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
On September 30, 2023, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. On December 31, 2022, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. For both periods the effect of exercisable options and warrants is anti-dilutive, and thus have been excluded from dilutive EPS.
The Company has adopted FASB guidance on stock-based compensation. Under ASC 718-10-30-2 “Stock Compensation”, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The fair value of the options is calculated using the Black Scholes valuation model (Note 14).
The Company has issued stock options to employees and non-employees. Stock options granted to non-employees for services or performance not yet rendered would be expensed over the service period or until the goals had been reached. Stock options granted to employees are expensed over the vesting period of the options. The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date.
| 11 |
Forfeitures of options are recognized as they occur. Compensation cost previously recognized is reversed on the date of forfeiture for any options that are forfeited prior to the completion of the requisite service period or vesting period.
Cancellation of an award accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a modification of the terms of the cancelled award. The total compensation cost measured on the date of a cancellation and replacement is the portion of the grant-date fair value of the original award for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered (or has already been rendered) at that date plus the incremental cost resulting from the cancellation and replacement.
A cancelation of an award that is not accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a repurchase for no consideration. Accordingly, any previously unrecognized compensation cost is recognized on the cancellation date.
The fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or required to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value of a financial instrument is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
| ● | Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. | |
| ● | Level 2: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. | |
| ● | Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participants assumptions that are reasonably available. |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of equity investments, note receivables, derivative liabilities and notes payable.
When determining fair value, whenever possible, the Company uses observable market data, and relies on unobservable inputs only when observable market data is not available. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any level 1 or 2 financial instruments. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, the company’s level 3 financial instruments were derivative liabilities for warrants issued and outstanding that were not indexed to the Company’s stock, notes payable and notes receivable valued at their present values and equity investments in other entities.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2023.

Derivative Liabilities
When the Company issues warrants, it evaluates the proper balance sheet classification of the warrant to determine whether the warrant should be classified as equity or as a derivative liability on the consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, the Company classifies a warrant as equity if it is indexed to the Company’s equity and several specific conditions for equity classification are met. A warrant is not considered indexed to the Company’s equity in general when it contains certain types of exercise contingencies or adjustments to exercise price. If a warrant is not indexed to the Company’s equity or it has net cash settlement that results in the warrants to be accounted for under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, or ASC 815-40, it is classified as a derivative liability which is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value with any changes in its fair value recognized currently in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had warrants that were classified as liabilities and warrants that were classified as equity. These warrants expired during the period ended September 30, 2023.
Some of the warrants issued by the Company have strike prices denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”). The Company’s functional currency is USD. In accordance with ASC 815 and EITF Issue No. 07-5, when the strike price of warrants is denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency, the warrants would not be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and would consequently be evaluated for a derivative liability under the conditions that the strike price is indexed to a foreign currency. The derivative liability associated with these warrants was valued on the date of issuance and is revalued at each reporting period.
Digital assets
The Company applies accounting for digital assets in accordance with the AICPA Practice Aid “Accounting for and Auditing of Digital Assets”, the guide is dated as of June 30, 2022, and the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121, which is effective for periods after June 15, 2022, which are the current nonauthoritative guidance for accounting for digital assets under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The AICPA Practice Aid is non-authoritative guidance that represents the views of the Digital Assets Working Group and AICPA staff. There is currently no official pronouncement or authoritative guidance on accounting for digital assets and digital asset transactions. Accordingly digital assets that lack physical substance meet the definition of intangible assets and would generally be accounted for under FASB ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The obligation to safeguard those assets is recorded as a liability at fair value. The Company holds no digital assets on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Though its business is in the development of digital asset platforms and the creation of non-fungible tokens, digital asset are not regularly used to conduct transactions or held during the year.

Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step 3: Determine the transaction price
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both.
When determining the transaction price, the Company also considers the effects of all of the following:
● Variable consideration
● Constraining estimates of variable consideration
● The existence of a significant financing component in the contract
● Noncash consideration
● Consideration payable to a customer
The Company generates revenues from three main sources, NFT sales, consulting services, and movie distribution.
Consulting Services
Consulting Service revenue is derived from providing professional knowledge and skills for creation of digital assets platforms and advisory services to third-party customers. The contract and performance obligations are created based on the needs of the customer and the abilities of the Company to provide the required services. The allocation of the transaction price to the individual performance obligations in the contract may be specified by task or by phase depending on the work being done. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the performance obligations. Revenues from ongoing services are recognized rateably over the related period. Revenue is recognized for the creation of software and web-based platforms upon completion and delivery.
NFT Revenue
NFT revenue is derived from the sale of NFTs. These NFTs are created by the Company’s subsidiaries and are sold through an online sales platform or through an auction. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers the ownership of the NFT to the customer.
Movie Distribution Revenue
Movie distribution revenue is derived from the use of the Company’s intangible assets. Revenues earned to date are from nonrefundable minimum guaranteed payments and were recognized on the date distribution rights were granted to the purchaser. Future revenues may be recognized from revenue generated by the purchaser or by additional distribution sales.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting, and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has not yet evaluated the impact that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

12. WARRANTS
The
Company granted and common stock warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and the year ended December
31, 2022, respectively. During the period ended September 30, 2023, warrant holders did not exercise any warrants, and warrants
expired. The weighted average exercise price of warrants outstanding on September 30, 2023, is $
A portion of outstanding warrants are denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. The fair value of each of these warrants is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation method, see Note 13.
Since the expected life of the warrants was greater than the Company’s historical stock information available, the Company determined the expected volatility based on price fluctuations of comparable public companies.
The following table summarizes changes in warrants outstanding in each year:

14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The
Company has adopted the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) under which non-transferable options to purchase common shares
of the Company may be granted to directors, officers, employees, or consultants of the Company.
The Company has also granted stock options to non-employees. These stock options were granted to consultants who have provided their services for cash compensation below cost, with the stock options providing additional compensation in lieu of cash.
On September 6, 2022, stock options held by a consultant were forfeited.
On August 26, 2022, the Company granted a total of stock options to officers and directors of the Company. The stock options are exercisable at the exercise price of $ per share for a period of from the date of grant. The stock options have a fair value of $ and are exercisable as follows:
| (i) | 1/2 the date of the grant; and | |
| (ii) | 1/2 on the first anniversary date; |
On August 26, 2022, the Company granted a total of stock options to an officer of the Company. The stock options are exercisable at the exercise price of $ per share for a period of from the date of grant. The stock options have a fair value of $ and are exercisable as follows:

On February 22, 2023, the Company granted a total of stock options to an officer of the Company. The stock options are exercisable at the exercise price of $ per share for a period of from the date of grant. The stock options have a fair value of $ and are exercisable as follows:
| (i) | 1/3 the first anniversary date of the grant; | |
| (ii) | 1/3 on the second anniversary date; and | |
| (iii) | 1/3 on the third anniversary date. |
Stock-based compensation expense recognized for the period ended September 30, 2023, and year ended December 31, 2022, were $ and $, respectively. Stock options granted are valued at fair value calculation based off the Black-Scholes valuation model. The weighted average assumptions used in the calculation are as follows:
Period ended September 30, 2023 | Year ended December 31, 2022 | |||||||
| Share price | $ | $ | ||||||
| Exercise price | $ | $ | ||||||
| Time to maturity (years) | ||||||||

| Options exercisable, September 30, 2023 | ||||||||||||||||
As vesting conditions are not wholly dependent on the employee and there is no timeline for them, for accounting purposes, the fair value is calculated and the expense is recognized upon the achievement of the milestones.
Nonvested options are valued at the date of the grant at the fair value of the common stock and are expensed over the vesting period. As at the grant date of the nonvested options, the fair value of the common stock was based upon the issuance of the founder shares at $ per share.
15. INCOME TAXES
For the period ended September 30, 2023, and year ended December 31, 2022, there was provision for income taxes and deferred tax assets have been entirely offset by valuation allowances.
As
of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $

The tax effects of the temporary differences between reportable financial statement income and taxable income are recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities. The tax effect of significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively, are as follows:
| 2023 | 2022 | |||||||
| Deferred tax asset: | ||||||||
| Net operating loss carry forwards | $ | $ | ||||||
| Total gross deferred tax assets | ||||||||
| Less: Deferred tax asset valuation allowance | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||
| Total net deferred tax assets | $ | $ | ||||||
| 21 |
In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
The returns filed from the year 2019 going forward are subject to examination by the IRS.

Current liabilities of $1,313,018 as at September 30, 2023, were attributable to accounts payable and accrued expenses, compared to $1,587,773 in accounts payable and accrued expenses as at December 31, 2022.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $277,523 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net cash used of $1,098,027 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $820,504. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities was primarily due to decreased general and administrative expenses for the period.
Investing Activities
The Company purchased $1,554,250 of intangible assets during the nine months ending September 30, 2023. Net cash provided by investing activities was $4,900 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was from the issuance of shares from the Company’s subsidiary, EnderbyWorks, LLC.
Financing Activities
Financing activities provided cash of $1,809,708 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and $635,499 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an increase of $1,174,209. This increase is mainly due to share issuances for fundraising and the settlement of debts during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and note receivable interest repayments.
Cash Requirements
We expect that we will require $1,200,000, including our current working capital, to fund our operating expenditures for the next twelve months. Projected working capital requirements for the next twelve months are as follows:
Estimated Working Capital Expenditures During the Next Twelve Months
| General and administrative expenses | $ | 1,200,000 | ||
| Total | $ | 1,200,000 |
| 26 |
Our estimated general and administrative expenses for the next 12 months are $1,200,000 and are comprised of consulting fees, accounting services, board of directors and our advisory board, investor relations consultants, and to our public relations and marketing consultants; legal and professional fees (including auditing fees); for insurance; marketing and advertising expenses; trade shows; travel expenses; office rent and miscellaneous and office expenses.
We will require additional cash resources to meet our planned capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the next 12 months. We expect to derive such cash through the sale of equity or debt securities or by obtaining a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness will result in debt service obligations, could cause additional dilution to our stockholders, and could require us to agree to financial covenants that could restrict our operations or modify our plans to source a new business opportunity. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Failure to raise additional funds could cause our company to fail.
Going Concern
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not yet established a source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and to allow us to continue as a going concern. We have incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $43,003,816 as at September 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022: $41,428,167). Our ability to operate as a going concern is dependent on obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until we become profitable.
In their reports on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, our current and former independent registered public accounting firms included an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are not required to provide the information under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. Our principal executive officer, who is our president, and our principal financial officer, who is our chief financial officer, are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for our company.
Our management conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that as a result of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2023.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS | 1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
MetaWorks Platforms, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 20, 2010, under its previous name Redstone Literary Agents, Inc., with an authorized capital of common shares, having a par value of $ per share. During the period ended December 31, 2010, the Company commenced operations by issuing shares and developing its publishing service business and focused on representing authors to publishers.
On February 14, 2018, the parent company “ICOx Innovations Inc.” changed its name to “CurrencyWorks Inc.”. On August 24 2022 “CurrencyWorks Inc.” changed its name to “MetaWorks Platforms, Inc.”.
On August 1, 2017 the Company incorporated a Nevada subsidiary, AppCoin Innovations (USA) Inc., which is used to provide blockchain consulting services. On February 14, 2018, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “AppCoin Innovations (USA) Inc.” to “ICOx USA, Inc.” On September 3, 2019, the Company changed its name from “ICOx USA, Inc.” to “CurrencyWorks USA Inc.”.
On November 28, 2018, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, GN Innovations, Inc. to provide blockchain technology opportunities to the sports and entertainment industry by working with large and well-established brands. Effective December 5, 2018, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “GN Innovations, Inc.” to “GNI, Inc.” Effective February 6, 2019, we effected a name change for our subsidiary from “GN1, Inc.” to “sBetOne, Inc.”. On August 12, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary sBetOne, Inc. (“sBetOne”) entered into a business combination with a related party, VON Acquisition Inc. (“VON”), whereby sBetOne became a wholly owned subsidiary of VON. The acquisition of SBetOne by VON was voided on March 31, 2022 after the Company’s interest in SBetOne was diluted to non-controlling, due to shares issued to creditors for settlement of debt. SBetOne is therefore no longer a consolidated subsidiary from March 31, 2023 but rather and investment of the Company.
On June 22, 2021, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, Motoclub LLC, (“Motoclub”) to create a marketplace for digital automotive collectibles.
On June 22, 2021, we incorporated a new Delaware subsidiary, EnderbyWorks, LLC, (“EnderbyWorks”) to create a direct-to-consumer, feature-length film viewing and distribution platform delivering feature-length films and digital collectible entertainment content as NFTs.
The Company’s business model is to provide a turnkey set of services to develop and integrate Web 3.0 / Metaverse technologies, NFT, blockchain, and cryptocurrency technologies. The Company’s services include strategic planning, project planning, structure development and administration, business plan modeling, technology development support, whitepaper preparation, due diligence reporting, governance planning and management, and movie distribution.
Going Concern
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $43,003,816 and $41,428,167 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and further losses are anticipated in the pursuit of the Company’s new service business opportunity, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from directors and/or the private placement of common stock/warrants.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

| SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America of (“US. GAAP”) as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), and the Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and are expressed in US Dollars. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes contained herein as part of the Company’s Quarterly Report in its Form 10-Q filing under the Securities Exchange Commission.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods to conform with current reporting.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. CurrencyWorks USA Inc. (formerly ICOx USA, Inc.) and EnderbyWorks are wholly-owned subsidiaries on September 30, 2023. MotoClub is the only majority-owned subsidiary on September 30, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the only wholly-owned subsidiary was CurrencyWorks USA Inc, and the majority-owned subsidiaries were MotoClub and EnderbyWorks. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and these differences could be material.
The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the estimates used to calculate the fair value of certain liabilities, the derivative liability, present value of note payable and note receivable, the valuation of the investments and any impairment and the net book value of long-lived assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions and conditions.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments, such as cash on account with commercial banks, certificates of deposit or money market funds that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less. All cash balances are held by major banking institutions.
Contingent Liabilities
The Company accounts for its contingent liabilities in accordance with ASC No. 450 “Contingencies”. A provision is recorded when it is both probable that liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
With respect to legal matters, provisions are reviewed, and financial information is adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31,2022, the Company was not a party to any litigation.
Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements. ASC 740 provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized. ASC 740 also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have determined that the Company does not have uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for the years 2020, 2018, and prior. Based on evaluation of the 2020 transactions and events, the Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions that require measurement.
Our policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, and have not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended September 30, 2023 or year ended December 31, 2022.
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and the state of California. The Company’s tax returns for tax years from 2020 to recent filings remain subject to potential examination by the tax authorities.
Accounts Receivable
The collectability of accounts receivable is determined by the Company’s legal obligation for payment by the customer, as well as the ability of the customer to pay its debts. The carrying amount of accounts receivable represents the maximum credit exposure of this balance.
Accounts receivable balances relate to the consulting services business and are reported at their net realizable value. From management’s best estimate there is no allowance for doubtful accounts on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Management individually reviews accounts receivable balances and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected and would directly write-off these balances. Management considers several factors, including the age of the receivables, which is often less than 60 days, current economic conditions and other information management obtains regarding the financial condition of customers. The policy for determining the past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer. If conditions are identified the determination to directly write off uncollectible receivables is made.
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all diluted potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of warrants or stock options (Note 10 and Note 16 respectively). Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
On September 30, 2023, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. On December 31, 2022, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. For both periods the effect of exercisable options and warrants is anti-dilutive, and thus have been excluded from dilutive EPS.
The Company has adopted FASB guidance on stock-based compensation. Under ASC 718-10-30-2 “Stock Compensation”, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The fair value of the options is calculated using the Black Scholes valuation model (Note 14).
The Company has issued stock options to employees and non-employees. Stock options granted to non-employees for services or performance not yet rendered would be expensed over the service period or until the goals had been reached. Stock options granted to employees are expensed over the vesting period of the options. The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date.
Forfeitures of options are recognized as they occur. Compensation cost previously recognized is reversed on the date of forfeiture for any options that are forfeited prior to the completion of the requisite service period or vesting period.
Cancellation of an award accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a modification of the terms of the cancelled award. The total compensation cost measured on the date of a cancellation and replacement is the portion of the grant-date fair value of the original award for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered (or has already been rendered) at that date plus the incremental cost resulting from the cancellation and replacement.
A cancelation of an award that is not accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a repurchase for no consideration. Accordingly, any previously unrecognized compensation cost is recognized on the cancellation date.
The fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or required to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value of a financial instrument is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
The Company’s financial instruments consist of equity investments, note receivables, derivative liabilities and notes payable.
When determining fair value, whenever possible, the Company uses observable market data, and relies on unobservable inputs only when observable market data is not available. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any level 1 or 2 financial instruments. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, the company’s level 3 financial instruments were derivative liabilities for warrants issued and outstanding that were not indexed to the Company’s stock, notes payable and notes receivable valued at their present values and equity investments in other entities.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2023.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at December 31, 2022.
Derivative Liabilities
When the Company issues warrants, it evaluates the proper balance sheet classification of the warrant to determine whether the warrant should be classified as equity or as a derivative liability on the consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, the Company classifies a warrant as equity if it is indexed to the Company’s equity and several specific conditions for equity classification are met. A warrant is not considered indexed to the Company’s equity in general when it contains certain types of exercise contingencies or adjustments to exercise price. If a warrant is not indexed to the Company’s equity or it has net cash settlement that results in the warrants to be accounted for under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, or ASC 815-40, it is classified as a derivative liability which is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value with any changes in its fair value recognized currently in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had warrants that were classified as liabilities and warrants that were classified as equity. These warrants expired during the period ended September 30, 2023.
Some of the warrants issued by the Company have strike prices denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”). The Company’s functional currency is USD. In accordance with ASC 815 and EITF Issue No. 07-5, when the strike price of warrants is denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency, the warrants would not be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and would consequently be evaluated for a derivative liability under the conditions that the strike price is indexed to a foreign currency. The derivative liability associated with these warrants was valued on the date of issuance and is revalued at each reporting period.
Digital assets
The Company applies accounting for digital assets in accordance with the AICPA Practice Aid “Accounting for and Auditing of Digital Assets”, the guide is dated as of June 30, 2022, and the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121, which is effective for periods after June 15, 2022, which are the current nonauthoritative guidance for accounting for digital assets under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The AICPA Practice Aid is non-authoritative guidance that represents the views of the Digital Assets Working Group and AICPA staff. There is currently no official pronouncement or authoritative guidance on accounting for digital assets and digital asset transactions. Accordingly digital assets that lack physical substance meet the definition of intangible assets and would generally be accounted for under FASB ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The obligation to safeguard those assets is recorded as a liability at fair value. The Company holds no digital assets on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Though its business is in the development of digital asset platforms and the creation of non-fungible tokens, digital asset are not regularly used to conduct transactions or held during the year.
Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both.
When determining the transaction price, the Company also considers the effects of all of the following:
● Variable consideration ● Constraining estimates of variable consideration ● The existence of a significant financing component in the contract ● Noncash consideration ● Consideration payable to a customer
The Company generates revenues from three main sources, NFT sales, consulting services, and movie distribution.
Consulting Services
Consulting Service revenue is derived from providing professional knowledge and skills for creation of digital assets platforms and advisory services to third-party customers. The contract and performance obligations are created based on the needs of the customer and the abilities of the Company to provide the required services. The allocation of the transaction price to the individual performance obligations in the contract may be specified by task or by phase depending on the work being done. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the performance obligations. Revenues from ongoing services are recognized rateably over the related period. Revenue is recognized for the creation of software and web-based platforms upon completion and delivery.
NFT Revenue
NFT revenue is derived from the sale of NFTs. These NFTs are created by the Company’s subsidiaries and are sold through an online sales platform or through an auction. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers the ownership of the NFT to the customer.
Movie Distribution Revenue
Movie distribution revenue is derived from the use of the Company’s intangible assets. Revenues earned to date are from nonrefundable minimum guaranteed payments and were recognized on the date distribution rights were granted to the purchaser. Future revenues may be recognized from revenue generated by the purchaser or by additional distribution sales.
Funds received for unearned revenue are deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheet and are recognized as revenue upon completion of milestones or specified tasks.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting, and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has not yet evaluated the impact that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

On August 12, 2021, the Company’s subsidiary sBetOne entered a business combination with a related party, VON Acquisition Inc. (“VON”) whereby the Company exchanged its equity interest in sBetOne for equity interest in VON. The Company received common shares or 6.31% of the total outstanding common shares of VON as at the date of the business combination. The transition from having a 59.02% ownership in sBetOne to having a 6.31% ownership in VON has led the Company to deconsolidate sBetOne from the Company’s financial statements and record the ownership of VON as an investment. The common shares were valued at $ CAD per share based on the most recent sales of VON’s stock. The investment in VON is an investment in a related party, due to the Company and VON sharing key management. The investment in VON was revalued on September 30, 2022, due to the change in the foreign currency exchange rate.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the sBetOne carrying amount in liabilities of $824,041 and loss in NCI of $350,942 were removed from the Company and converted into shares of VON, resulting in a gain of $120,478 upon deconsolidation of sBetOne recorded in other income.
On March 31, 2022, VON’s shares were exchanged for sBetOne’s share, as a result of the Company agreeing with VON to cancel the acquisition arrangement.

The Company has adopted the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) under which non-transferable options to purchase common shares of the Company may be granted to directors, officers, employees, or consultants of the Company. The terms of the Plan provide that our board of directors may grant options to acquire common shares of the Company at not less than 100% of the greater of: (i) the fair market value of the shares underlying the options on the grant date and (ii) the fair market value of the shares underlying the options on the date preceding the grant date at terms of up to ten years. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the options. On June 30, 2023, the maximum number of options available for grant was increased to shares. On September 30, 2023, there are stock options issued and outstanding. On September 30, 2023, there are 4,086,666 unused stock options.
The Company has also granted stock options to non-employees. These stock options were granted to consultants who have provided their services for cash compensation below cost, with the stock options providing additional compensation in lieu of cash.
On September 6, 2022, stock options held by a consultant were forfeited.
On August 26, 2022, the Company granted a total of stock options to officers and directors of the Company. The stock options are exercisable at the exercise price of $ per share for a period of from the date of grant. The stock options have a fair value of $ and are exercisable as follows:

Stock-based compensation expense recognized for the period ended September 30, 2023, and year ended December 31, 2022, were $ and $, respectively. Stock options granted are valued at fair value calculation based off the Black-Scholes valuation model. The weighted average assumptions used in the calculation are as follows:
As vesting conditions are not wholly dependent on the employee and there is no timeline for them, for accounting purposes, the fair value is calculated and the expense is recognized upon the achievement of the milestones.
Nonvested options are valued at the date of the grant at the fair value of the common stock and are expensed over the vesting period. As at the grant date of the nonvested options, the fair value of the common stock was based upon the issuance of the founder shares at $ per share.

For the period ended September 30, 2023, and year ended December 31, 2022, there was provision for income taxes and deferred tax assets have been entirely offset by valuation allowances.
As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $5,487,617 and $3,897,793, respectively. The carry forwards expire through the year 2042. The Company’s net operating loss carry forwards may be subject to annual limitations, which could reduce or defer the utilization of the losses as a result of an ownership change as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted on December 22, 2017, which reduced the U.S. corporate statutory tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning on January 1, 2018. We used 21% as an effective rate. Tax computations are as follows:
The tax effects of the temporary differences between reportable financial statement income and taxable income are recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities. The tax effect of significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets at December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, respectively, are as follows:
In assessing the ability to realize the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
The returns filed from the year 2019 going forward are subject to examination by the IRS.

On October 6, 2023, we closed on a promissory note and entered into a promissory note agreement that was dated September 5, 2023 with one subscriber (the “Holder”) to raise a net amount of US$104,250, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of the unsecured promissory note issued to the Holder (the “Promissory Note”).
The principal of the Promissory Note is in the amount of US$119,887.50, plus a one-time interest charge of 11% (US$13,187), which accrues on issuance of the Promissory Note. It is unsecured and matures on July 15, 2024. We also agreed to an original issuance discount of US$
The total amount of the Promissory Note of US$133,074 (including principal and interest) will be repaid in ten payments each in the amount of US$13,307, the first payment due on October 15, 2023, with nine subsequent payments each month thereafter. We will have a five day grace period with respect to each payment.
In the event of a default, the Promissory Note is convertible into shares of our common stock. In a default situation the Holder will have the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid amount of the Promissory Note into shares of our common stock at a conversion price that is equal to the lowest trading price for the shares of common stock during the 25 trading days prior to the conversion date. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any event of default, the Promissory Note will immediately become immediately and payable and, if we wish to repay the Promissory Note in cash, we must pay an amount equal to 200% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Promissory Note plus accrued and unpaid interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Promissory Note plus any default interest, if any.
We issued the Promissory Note and intend to issue shares of our common stock upon conversion of the Promissory Note to one U.S. person (as that term is defined in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and in issuing these securities, we rely on the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and/or Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. |

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and these differences could be material.
The most significant estimates made by management in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the estimates used to calculate the fair value of certain liabilities, the derivative liability, present value of note payable and note receivable, the valuation of the investments and any impairment and the net book value of long-lived assets. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from such estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

| Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments, such as cash on account with commercial banks, certificates of deposit or money market funds that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less. All cash balances are held by major banking institutions.

| Contingent Liabilities | Contingent Liabilities
The Company accounts for its contingent liabilities in accordance with ASC No. 450 “Contingencies”. A provision is recorded when it is both probable that liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
With respect to legal matters, provisions are reviewed, and financial information is adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31,2022, the Company was not a party to any litigation.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences). The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements. ASC 740 provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized. ASC 740 also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have determined that the Company does not have uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for the years 2020, 2018, and prior. Based on evaluation of the 2020 transactions and events, the Company does not have any material uncertain tax positions that require measurement.
Our policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. We had no accrual for interest or penalties on our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022, and have not recognized interest and/or penalties in the consolidated statement of operations for the period ended September 30, 2023 or year ended December 31, 2022.
We are subject to taxation in the U.S. and the state of California. The Company’s tax returns for tax years from 2020 to recent filings remain subject to potential examination by the tax authorities.

| Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable
The collectability of accounts receivable is determined by the Company’s legal obligation for payment by the customer, as well as the ability of the customer to pay its debts. The carrying amount of accounts receivable represents the maximum credit exposure of this balance.
Accounts receivable balances relate to the consulting services business and are reported at their net realizable value. From management’s best estimate there is no allowance for doubtful accounts on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Management individually reviews accounts receivable balances and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected and would directly write-off these balances. Management considers several factors, including the age of the receivables, which is often less than 60 days, current economic conditions and other information management obtains regarding the financial condition of customers. The policy for determining the past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer. If conditions are identified the determination to directly write off uncollectible receivables is made.

| Earnings per Share |
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted EPS on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all diluted potential common shares outstanding during the period. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of warrants or stock options (Note 10 and Note 16 respectively). Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
On September 30, 2023, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. On December 31, 2022, the Company had no convertible debt outstanding, warrants were exercisable to shares of common stock and stock options were exercisable to shares of common stock. For both periods the effect of exercisable options and warrants is anti-dilutive, and thus have been excluded from dilutive EPS.
The Company has adopted FASB guidance on stock-based compensation. Under ASC 718-10-30-2 “Stock Compensation”, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The fair value of the options is calculated using the Black Scholes valuation model (Note 14).
The Company has issued stock options to employees and non-employees. Stock options granted to non-employees for services or performance not yet rendered would be expensed over the service period or until the goals had been reached. Stock options granted to employees are expensed over the vesting period of the options. The fair value of stock options is determined on the grant date.
Forfeitures of options are recognized as they occur. Compensation cost previously recognized is reversed on the date of forfeiture for any options that are forfeited prior to the completion of the requisite service period or vesting period.
Cancellation of an award accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a modification of the terms of the cancelled award. The total compensation cost measured on the date of a cancellation and replacement is the portion of the grant-date fair value of the original award for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered (or has already been rendered) at that date plus the incremental cost resulting from the cancellation and replacement.
A cancelation of an award that is not accompanied by the concurrent grant of (or offer to grant) a replacement award of other valuable consideration is accounted for as a repurchase for no consideration. Accordingly, any previously unrecognized compensation cost is recognized on the cancellation date.
The fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or required to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value of a financial instrument is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.
A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
The Company’s financial instruments consist of equity investments, note receivables, derivative liabilities and notes payable.
When determining fair value, whenever possible, the Company uses observable market data, and relies on unobservable inputs only when observable market data is not available. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any level 1 or 2 financial instruments. On September 30, 2023 and December 31, the company’s level 3 financial instruments were derivative liabilities for warrants issued and outstanding that were not indexed to the Company’s stock, notes payable and notes receivable valued at their present values and equity investments in other entities.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2023.
The following table presents the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at December 31, 2022.

| Derivative Liabilities | Derivative Liabilities
When the Company issues warrants, it evaluates the proper balance sheet classification of the warrant to determine whether the warrant should be classified as equity or as a derivative liability on the consolidated balance sheet. In accordance with ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, the Company classifies a warrant as equity if it is indexed to the Company’s equity and several specific conditions for equity classification are met. A warrant is not considered indexed to the Company’s equity in general when it contains certain types of exercise contingencies or adjustments to exercise price. If a warrant is not indexed to the Company’s equity or it has net cash settlement that results in the warrants to be accounted for under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, or ASC 815-40, it is classified as a derivative liability which is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value with any changes in its fair value recognized currently in the statement of operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had warrants that were classified as liabilities and warrants that were classified as equity. These warrants expired during the period ended September 30, 2023.
Some of the warrants issued by the Company have strike prices denominated in Canadian dollars (“CAD”). The Company’s functional currency is USD. In accordance with ASC 815 and EITF Issue No. 07-5, when the strike price of warrants is denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency, the warrants would not be considered indexed to the entity’s own stock and would consequently be evaluated for a derivative liability under the conditions that the strike price is indexed to a foreign currency. The derivative liability associated with these warrants was valued on the date of issuance and is revalued at each reporting period.

| Digital assets | Digital assets
The Company applies accounting for digital assets in accordance with the AICPA Practice Aid “Accounting for and Auditing of Digital Assets”, the guide is dated as of June 30, 2022, and the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121, which is effective for periods after June 15, 2022, which are the current nonauthoritative guidance for accounting for digital assets under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The AICPA Practice Aid is non-authoritative guidance that represents the views of the Digital Assets Working Group and AICPA staff. There is currently no official pronouncement or authoritative guidance on accounting for digital assets and digital asset transactions. Accordingly digital assets that lack physical substance meet the definition of intangible assets and would generally be accounted for under FASB ASC 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The obligation to safeguard those assets is recorded as a liability at fair value. The Company holds no digital assets on September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Though its business is in the development of digital asset platforms and the creation of non-fungible tokens, digital asset are not regularly used to conduct transactions or held during the year.

| Revenue recognition | Revenue recognition
The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the new revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:
Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract Step 3: Determine the transaction price Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract Step 5: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation
The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both.
When determining the transaction price, the Company also considers the effects of all of the following:
● Variable consideration ● Constraining estimates of variable consideration ● The existence of a significant financing component in the contract ● Noncash consideration ● Consideration payable to a customer
The Company generates revenues from three main sources, NFT sales, consulting services, and movie distribution.
Consulting Services
Consulting Service revenue is derived from providing professional knowledge and skills for creation of digital assets platforms and advisory services to third-party customers. The contract and performance obligations are created based on the needs of the customer and the abilities of the Company to provide the required services. The allocation of the transaction price to the individual performance obligations in the contract may be specified by task or by phase depending on the work being done. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the performance obligations. Revenues from ongoing services are recognized rateably over the related period. Revenue is recognized for the creation of software and web-based platforms upon completion and delivery.
NFT Revenue
NFT revenue is derived from the sale of NFTs. These NFTs are created by the Company’s subsidiaries and are sold through an online sales platform or through an auction. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers the ownership of the NFT to the customer.
Movie Distribution Revenue
Movie distribution revenue is derived from the use of the Company’s intangible assets. Revenues earned to date are from nonrefundable minimum guaranteed payments and were recognized on the date distribution rights were granted to the purchaser. Future revenues may be recognized from revenue generated by the purchaser or by additional distribution sales.
Funds received for unearned revenue are deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheet and are recognized as revenue upon completion of milestones or specified tasks.

| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 will simplify the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting, and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management has not yet evaluated the impact that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures. |
