Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations


CarrierEQ Inc., doing business as Airfox (“Airfox USA”), was incorporated in Delaware on January 19, 2016 with a principal place of business in Boston, Massachusetts.


Airfox USA has a 99.99% ownership interest in banQi Instituição de Pagamento Ltda (formerly known as AirFox Servicos E Intermediacoes Ltda (“Airfox Brazil or banQi Ltda”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil and a 100% ownership interest in AirToken GmbH, a Swiss GmbH. Airfox USA, Airfox Brazil and Airtoken GmbH are collectively referred to herein, as the “Company” or “Airfox”.


Beginning in February 2017, the Company began exploring consumer applications of its legacy prepaid mobile applications. The Company initiated a business plan to introduce a mobile application that would allow users to earn digital tokens, exchange them for free or discounted mobile data and, ultimately, other goods and services in South America as part of a new international business and ecosystem (the “AirToken Project”). The AirToken Project included the issuance of digital tokens (“AirToken(s)”). The AirToken is an ERC-20 token issued on the Ethereum blockchain.


The Company obtained Ether and Bitcoin (collectively referred therein as the “Digital Assets”), in August 2017 through early October 2017 from those interested in obtaining AirTokens. The Company raised approximately $15.4 million for the purpose of developing the AirToken Project.


The Company’s business is evolving to focus on providing unbanked and financially underserved individuals in emerging markets mobile access to financial services. The Company is developing a software technology platform initially consisting of two applications, a digital wallet application and an alternative credit scoring and lending application. The Company’s software technology platform is designed and built as a Software as Service (or SaaS) offering. The Company expects to generate revenue from these applications from fixed recurring fees, transaction fees, third party fees and interest income. The Company’s initial markets are the cash and unbanked markets in Brazil.


The Company’s digital wallet application, branded as banQi, is a digital banking application capable of leveraging machine learning capabilities to build alternative, smartphone-based credit risk models. This application, currently available on Android, aims to eliminate the need for traditional financial institutions allowing the underbanked without bank accounts or credit cards to more easily and quickly make many everyday transactions using a smartphone. It will also enable the Company to create an alternative credit scoring system for its users for use in connection with its alternative credit scoring and lending application.


The alternative credit scoring and lending application is a blockchain-based, peer-to-peer lending application that will enable anyone from around the world to provide capital for a microloan to a diversified cohort of borrowers. The technology is expected to harness the decentralized power of the Ethereum blockchain to create a digital ledger of the user’s behavioral and transactional data to fund a new financial asset class from a global pool of lenders seeking to make socially impactful microloans.
