ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 2


What is ECOMI
The ECOMI Ecosystem is a secure digital economic ecosystem supported by Ecomi Technology Pte. Ltd.. ECOMI aims
to bring blockchain technology to the mainstream in one user-friendly platform. It offers the many benefits of
decentralization, privacy, and control in the palm of your hands, made possible with our Secure Wallet and ECOMI
One cards. At the core of ECOMI is a desire to create a range of usable and functional products, which will be
achieved using a mixture of existing technologies, proprietary tools, and numerous standing partnerships.

ECOMI aims to address current security issues associated with the use of applications developed on blockchains and
cryptocurrency, through the Secure Wallet, and ECOMI One (physical hardware). If private keys are not stored offline,
they are potentially exposed to greater risks. Since the beginning of cryptocurrency, billions of dollars have been lost
to hackers and theft, and the most secure and practical solution thus far is to store your cryptocurrency / private
keys, and decentralized applications (DApps) access on an offline device, such as a cold-storage hardware wallet.

The economic aspect of the ECOMI Ecosystem consists of creating a digital finance management platform allowing
users to spend fiat, cryptocurrencies, and OMI Tokens (the native ECOMI Ecosystem token), anywhere around the
world. The 2nd generation of the Secure Wallet, the ECOMI One, aims to offer P2P exchange of digital assets, lower
transaction costs, increased speed of payment, and overcome international payment boundaries.

The ‘digital ecosystem’ refers to apps and services that reside in the ECOMI Ecosystem and within the functions of
the Secure Wallet and ECOMI One device. These DApps and services will be created by ECOMI initially, and eventually
any user who wishes to launch their own app, or business, in the ECOMI Ecosystem. The ecosystem will offer the
opportunity for anyone to participate, and benefit from the development and growth of the ecosystem, and enjoy
the many benefits of cryptocurrency, blockchain technology, privacy and control.

The scope of the ECOMI Ecosystem is potentially wide and it can be achieved by establishing a range of partnerships
with established leaders across multiple industries. This will provide a technological baseline on which ECOMI’s
products and services may be built, thus streamlining many areas of the technological development. ECOMI intends
to utilise these partnerships, and integrate them with the ECOMI Ecosystem’s vision, to bring to life an amazing range
of products and services.

As the uptake of the ECOMI Ecosystem increases over time, it is expected that the ECOMI Ecosystem’s network value
and utility will also increase, based on Metcalfe’s Law and Social Theory. This, in turn, is likely to help fuel further
expansion and developments within the wider ECOMI Ecosystem.

​Metcalfe’s law​ in action - Two telephones can make only one connection, five
can make 10 connections, and twelve can make 66 connections, etc

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 3


Blockchain​ ​Background & Benefits
Blockchain is popularly known as the underlying technology behind Bitcoin. It uses a peer-to-peer network of
computers to validate transactions. Blockchain is a data structure, used to create and share a distributed ledger of
transactions among a network of computers. It allows users to make and verify transactions while providing
immediate records without a central authority. Blockchain technology ensures records are tamper-proof as
ownership is transferred via distributed consensus and decentralization.

In a fully decentralized environment, such as blockchain, single points of failure are non-existent. When accessing
information you own, only your authorization can obtain the requested information. This is extremely powerful when
protecting data, assets, and personal information.

Smart contracts, the 2nd generation of blockchain, allow developers to write their own programs that are hosted on
the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), or other similar blockchains. The use of smart contracts in turn brought DApps
to the world, and removed the need for centralized hosting of applications.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 4


Problem Overview
Blockchain technology powers the creation of smart contracts, which is capable of governing arbitrary interactions.
The decentralized application layer built on top of blockchain is poised to disrupt many industries. Currently, all
blockchains’ distributed ledgers require the use of some form of private and public key to perform actions.

2017 was a record year for cryptocurrency growth, but also one where billions in cryptocurrencies were locked up or
stolen. One of many such examples was the theft of $534.8 million worth of NEM coins held in a ‘hot’ wallet of
Coincheck, a Japanese cryptocurrency exchange, in January 2018. This illustrates the need for proper security
measures when protecting cryptocurrencies and private keys.

Private keys, and the Bitcoin network for example, are extremely secure. To compromise the Bitcoin network, you
would need to process one trillion private keys per second, which would take more than one million times the age of
the universe, and more so, just enumerating these keys would consume more than the total energy output of the
sun for 32 years. This vast keyspace plays a fundamental role in securing Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrency networks.

However, it can be very easy to lose the assets your private keys protect if you don't take the correct measures to
protect your private keys. For example, there is the story of a Bloomberg anchor who displayed his Bitcoin gift card
during a television broadcast and got robbed almost immediately by an astute and nefarious viewer.

Another issue affecting mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies is the inability to quickly and conveniently convert
cryptocurrencies into fiat money (i.e. USD, EUR, etc). This makes it difficult for individuals to actualize their
cryptocurrencies in the ‘real world’. While some exchange platforms are available, most are lacking in security and
can be challenging and complicated to use, making them inaccessible for the masses. ECOMI aims to solve this issue
with the ECOMI One, its second product release, which will allow users to store and spend a large number of
cryptocurrencies anywhere in the world, with little limitation.

Ultimately, the Secure Wallet and ECOMI One strive to be the solution for secure cold storage, data protection,
user-friendly interaction and the ability to spend your cryptocurrencies efficiently and cost-effectively.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 5


ECOMI Ecosystem
The ECOMI Ecosystem will host a variety of decentralized applications. This ecosystem will be supported by ECOMI
and community initiatives, which will focus on building decentralized applications that offer ownership, control and
privacy, by securely storing private keys on the Secure Wallet or the ECOMI One.

The ECOMI Ecosystem will have a second layer of security unlike any other ecosystem in blockchain. With the use of
the Secure Wallet, and ECOMI One, all private keys created for both cryptocurrency and decentralized apps will be
held offline. This in turn creates an ‘air-gapped’ security level, which improves security as compared to other physical
hardware wallets. Moreover, as the products develop, ECOMI plans to implement biometrics into both ECOMI cards
to offer an even higher level of security.

The ECOMI Ecosystem is designed to return your right to personal ownership, privacy and control. The ecosystem
blueprint includes potentially developing:

● A decentralized application marketplace


● ECOMI Exchange (liquidity provider)
● Personal data, identity protection and storage. Including basic identification, usernames, passwords, credit
card information, passports, licenses and more.
● The recording, protection, and sharing of Intellectual property
● A broad variety of P2P exchange platforms including, but not limited to, cryptocurrencies, messaging
platforms, social media, encrypted file and data storage.

Token holders may be incentivised to support the network and receive access to products and services within the
ECOMI Ecosystem, by staking OMI Tokens, rather than spending tokens. It is possible that participants in the
crowdsale who make purchases above a certain amount will be issued a free Secure Wallet, subject to terms and
conditions, to trigger mainstream adoption and create liquidity across the ecosystem.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 6


Security
Security is a major proposed feature of the ECOMI Ecosystem, which seeks to ensure private keys remain protected
and are less likely to be compromised. This world class security standard will be maintained by storing private keys
offline in the ECOMI physical hardware wallets - the Secure Wallet and the ECOMI One. It is envisioned that these two
physical hardware wallets can be used in conjunction with DApps and services within the ECOMI Ecosystem, allowing
any ECOMI-based product or service to securely store their related private keys in offline storage.

According to international security guidelines and specifications, the Secure Wallet, is certified CC EAL5 +, the highest
security standard for government level deployments. Private keys stay safe inside the secure hardware element in
each wallet, and solid security design provides a high level of protection.

The Secure Wallet will have a number of security features to protect private keys which include: Secure element, host
registration, host login, security channel, hierarchical deterministic wallet, secure firmware updates, and security
protocols which are outlined in detail below:

Security Element
Secure Wallet adopts the NXP Smart MX​TM ​ secure element (SE), which has the following features:

● Smart MX​TM high



security microcontroller IC secure element
● Security certified according to CC EAL5+
● Data retention time: 25 years
● Endurance: 500 000 cycles minimum
● Interfaces
○ Contact interface according to ISO/IEC 7816
○ Contactless interface according to ISO/IEC 14443 A
● Voltage class: C, B, and A (1.62 to 5.5 V)
● Memory Management Unit (MMU)
● High-speed 3-DES coprocessor (64-bit parallel)
● High-speed AES coprocessor (128-bit parallel)
● PKI (RSA, ECC) coprocessor FameXE (32-bit parallel)

For example, the bitcoin ECDSA algorithm with parameter secp256k1 is implemented in the SE, so the SE can
calculate the signature with the ECC private keys stored inside.

Host Registration
Since the Secure Wallet only supports the BLE (NFC) interface for communication, it needs a host (Android or Apple
smartphone, and soon a desktop computer) to sync with the cryptocurrency networks and ECOMI DApps.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 7


The mechanism has been designed for the wallet to register the hosts in a secure way. When a host device (Android
or Apple smartphone) sends a request to the Secure Wallet, it provides a UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) with
description to the card. The card will generate a UUID which is pushed to the host device so it can generate the
device key (which is SHA256 value of UUID). The Secure Wallet will generate the same device key following the same
protocol. Both the device and Secure Wallet will then confirm the key by challenge-response mechanism. If passed,
the device will be registered as a host of the Secure Wallet.

Host Registration Process:

Host Login
When a registered host device wants to login to the Secure Wallet, it calculates its own device key by sourcing the
UUID stored in the host. The login process is a challenge-response mechanism preventing any man-in-the-middle
attack. After successful verification, the Secure Wallet card grants the host device access to the wallet.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 8


Host Login Process:

Security Channel
The communication between the host and the Secure Wallet is encrypted by a session encryption key, and some
data needs additional HMAC-SHA256 protection. The encryption key and MAC (Message Authentication Code) key
are derived from the login challenge, device key mentioned above, and different derive strings. The KDF (key
derivation function) used here is SHA256.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 9


Hierarchical Deterministic Wallet
The Secure Wallet supports the Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallet defined in BIP-32, BIP-43 and BIP-44. The user
can generate a number-style mnemonic sentence on the Secure Wallet, which is displayed to the user via the app on
the host device. The Secure Wallet will calculate the seed and generate the master node inside the secure element.
The mnemonic sentence is confirmed and verified by entering the sum of all sets of numbers into the app to ensure
users have captured the mnemonic sentence correctly.

Firmware Updates
It is possible to update the secure element firmware over-the-air (OTA). The new firmware is encrypted by a loader
key and can be delivered through the network. The App can directly install the encrypted firmware to the Secure
Wallet. The loader of Secure Wallet will decrypt and verify the firmware using the loader key and install the new
firmware after the validation occurs.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 10


Loss, Backup & Restoration
Security and restoration of private keys is extremely important, and the Secure Wallet has very robust restoration
capabilities. Even if owners lose their Secure Wallet and / or their host device, their private keys will likely remain
protected.

During the setup of the Secure Wallet, a ‘Recovery Seed’ is generated within the app, as outlined in the Hierarchical
Deterministic Wallet explanation above. When the seed is generated, the user should write this in the ‘Recovery Card’
supplied with the Secure Wallet and store it in a very safe place. In the event that the Secure Wallet is lost or stolen,
the user can purchase a replacement Secure Wallet, pair it with the host device, and enter the Recovery Seed from
the Recovery Card to restore their private keys. In the future, ECOMI plans to make use of biometric technologies to
make the process simpler and more secure.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 11

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 12


1.0 Secure Wallet
The foundation of the ECOMI Ecosystem is the Secure Wallet - a credit
card-sized, cryptocurrency private key hardware device that helps to ensure
the protection of digital assets.

The Secure Wallet is designed to be impenetrable to malicious cyber-attacks,


since it never connects directly to the Internet or to an online device
insecurely.

The Secure Wallet is paired, via an encrypted wireless / Bluetooth connection,


to a host device (Apple or Android smartphone). By removing the need for a
wired connection to the host device, this reduces the likelihood of it being
compromised, whilst allowing for the highest degree of portability.

Interaction with the Secure Wallet is made via the ECOMI App. This
comfortable and familiar use of app technology makes the Secure Wallet one
of the most user-friendly hardware devices available. By using the ECOMI App,
owners of the Secure Wallet are given:

● Control over the seamless transfer of private keys in and out of the device.
● Safe and secure storage.
● The ability to create up to 5 individual wallets per cryptocurrency.
● The Secure Wallet will launch with the capacity to securely store five cryptocurrencies - Bitcoin, Ethereum,
Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ripple. The Secure Wallet aims to support 30+ currencies by the end of 2018.

Secure Wallet Components:


1. Hardware Secure Element
2. E-Paper Display
3. Bluetooth connector.
4. Power / Confirmation Button
5. Integrated Circuitry
6. Rechargeable Battery
7. Charging connectors
8. LED Charging Indicator

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 13


How it works
Users will pair their Secure Wallet with an Android or Apple smartphone, using the ECOMI App. First time users will
create a new wallet, and generate the recovery seed. Once set up, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and
Ripple can be sent to, and securely stored on the Secure Wallet.

2.0 ECOMI One
ECOMI One is a credit card-sized, global payment card. Built on top of the Secure Wallet technology, ECOMI One will
securely hold your cryptocurrencies, fiat currencies (e.g. USD, GBP, EUR), as well as your NFC-enabled debit, credit,
and loyalty cards.

Today, options are limited when it comes to using cryptocurrency to pay for your morning coffee, newspaper, or
utility bills. However, with the growth of cryptocurrencies, the demand to spend these in the real world is growing. Of
course, a cryptocurrency owner could in theory make an exchange of cryptocurrency on an exchange, wait for
confirmation to be completed, then wait for the transfer of funds to their nominated traditional bank account and so
on, but who has the time to do that for a cup of coffee?

ECOMI One solves this problem by offering a consolidated all-in-one wallet with the capability to hold fiat,
cryptocurrency, all NFC-enabled credit, debit, and loyalty cards in ‘One’ place. ECOMI One card holders can spend
fiat and cryptocurrencies, using contactless methods, with the integrated debit card, accepted where all major debit
cards are accepted.

The in-wallet exchange creates the potential for cryptocurrencies to be exchanged for fiat currencies, either directly
within the app or automatically at the point of sale. ECOMI One is envisioned to be a truly global card allowing you to
spend both your fiat currency, and cryptocurrency, anywhere in the world.

ECOMI One will be a constantly evolving piece of technology, which aims to offer a growing suite of tools for everyday
use, and will be an integral part of the ECOMI Ecosystem.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 16


ECOMI Exchange
The use of cryptocurrency can be difficult for new users to master. It can take days, if not weeks, to learn how to
convert fiat to cryptocurrency, transfer it safely and exchange it for other cryptocurrencies.

The ECOMI Exchange is a mechanism which aims to simplify the use of cryptocurrency by allowing ECOMI One card
holders to spend their cryptocurrency the same way as a regular credit or debit card. At the time of transaction,
merchants will receive local fiat currency (USD, GBP, EUR) as one would with standard bank-issued credit or debit
cards.

Prior to spending cryptocurrency from the ECOMI One platform, users will have the option of setting the default
cryptocurrency for fiat purchases from within the ECOMI App. In addition, users will also have the option of
converting cryptocurrency into fiat at any time, to be stored on ECOMI One for later use.

To ensure the ECOMI One remains fully compliant, all ECOMI One users must apply to use the ECOMI One using our
prescribed KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 18


3.0 ECOMI App
At the heart of the ECOMI Ecosystem will be the ECOMI App, where our users will be able to access all ECOMI
services and features from one central location.

Initially, ECOMI intends to obtain the necessary licensing rights to develop apps and create guidelines for
development within the ECOMI Ecosystem. Soon after, the ECOMI Ecosystem will be open to any developer who
wishes to either build an app the community has voted for, or to create an app of his or her own.

Users can access the products and services within the ECOMI Ecosystem using the ECOMI desktop and mobile apps,
as well as browser extensions for certain features.

The ECOMI App interface design is a working concept and may be subject to change.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 19


ECOMI NFC
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a set of short-range wireless technologies
that allow contactless communication between devices like smartphones or
tablets. Contactless communication allows a user to wave a device over another
NFC compatible device to send information easily, without needing to go
through multiple steps setting up a connection.

Both the Secure Wallet and ECOMI One are NFC-activated. By utilising the
ECOMI App, users will have the ability to load multiple credit cards, gym passes,
travel cards, NFC locks, hotel room keys and any other NFC operated device.

NFC is expected to add value to the ECOMI Ecosystem by allowing further


consolidation of the above needs into one simple device. Users can save space
by consolidating all their contactless devices and cards into one device and
store unlimited credit/debit cards, cryptocurrency and fiat on it.

DApp Marketplace
As our range of apps and services grows, ECOMI aims to eventually provide
an app store similar to Apple and Google Play, allowing users to browse for
new apps and services in the ECOMI Ecosystem, or even submit their own.
The ECOMI App is also projected to include a physical asset exchange
marketplace, similar to Ebay or Amazon, all processed by the ECOMI
escrow.

ECOMI plans to use a portion of the long-term initiatives fund to fuel the
community driven DApp incentives. This will allow other community
members to build DApps for the market place which will share similar
security protocols, such as access and information stored offline in the
Secure Wallet and ECOMI One. In turn, ECOMI aims to attract skilled and
talented DApp creators to join and contribute to the ecosystem.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 20


4.0 ECOMI Vault
We now live in the digital era, and the effective protection of digital assets and data has become of paramount
importance. With each passing month, we see increasing instances of identity theft, stolen data, and more.

ECOMI Vault protects your data. This includes, but is not limited to, all forms of intellectual property, like music,
literature, specifications of revolutionary new technology, and personal data such as credit cards, usernames, and
passwords. Using a combination of distributed ledger technology and offline private key storage (Secure Wallet or
ECOMI One), ECOMI Vault aims to offer maximum level of protection for personal and commercial data.

How It Works
ECOMI Vault is a software-as-a-service (SAAS) solution. The user interface is similar to common data storage services
such as Google Drive or Dropbox, whereby users can upload files to their Vault, create folders, and organise their
data. To keep data further organised, within the Vault there are specific sections for different types of data such as
passwords, credit cards, files, and more.

When data is added to ECOMI Vault, each entry will be verified and time stamped with activities concerning the said
file stored within. This includes when the file was added, viewed, updated, accessed, shared, and more. This activity is
recorded in the immutable distributed ledger technology that underlies the ECOMI Vault.

Protection & Security


Unlike many data storage services (Dropbox) or personal information protection services (1Password) which are
centralized (stored on a set of servers or single point of failure), ECOMI Vault encrypts data and stores it on a
decentralized platform.

Another unique point of difference for the ECOMI Vault is the requirement for the use of private keys, which are
stored on the Secure Wallet or ECOMI One physical hardware wallets, to access the data stored in the decentralized
distributed ledger. The Secure Wallet and ECOMI One physical hardware provides an option for users who desire
extra levels of protection for sensitive or commercial data.

Protecting private keys offline with the Secure Wallet or ECOMI One will provide a high level of protection for
encrypted data. Read more about the proposed security measures of the ECOMI physical hardware wallets in the
‘Security’ section of this document.

Sharing
Sensitive personal or commercial information are frequently shared in dealings today. The common way this is
achieved is by sending data directly (e.g. email), or sharing read-only versions. However, these measures do little to

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 21


protect the data, or intellectual property, as there is often no record or agreement in place when data is shared.
ECOMI Vault intends to handle all of this with an integrated sharing mechanism.

From within ECOMI Vault, the data owner can choose to share data with chosen recipients. To do this, the data
owner will choose the data they want to share, then create a smart contract in a few simple steps using the built in
smart contract builder, which can create very simple agreements or more comprehensive commercial grade
contracts.

Once the smart contract is created, the data owner can send an invite to the recipient (via an email generated from
ECOMI Vault). The recipient can then view, and if they agree and sign the smart contract, they will gain access to the
shared data. Once the smart contract is in place, all activity relating to the shared data and the recipient is recorded
in the ECOMI Vault distributed ledger. This provides the data owners with a level of confidence.

The overall goal with ECOMI Vault is to provide an end-to-end solution which allows individuals, and commercial
organisations, an easier and more cost-effective way to protect and share data, minimise costly and cumbersome
legal steps, and overcome the limited features of current storage options.

Access
ECOMI Vault will be designed to be accessible at any time through one of ECOMI’s cross-platform applications
including the mobile app, desktop app, Windows / Mac desktop client, or browser extension.

The ECOMI Vault Desktop Client strives to offer continuous data protection. By installing the desktop client, the user
can install an ‘ECOMI drive’ on their computer. Using this drive, the user can access all files they have permission to.
This works in the same manner as the conventional search functions on operating systems of today. If the user
accesses a file through the drive that requires approval via the Secure Wallet or ECOMI One physical hardware
wallets, they will be prompted to press the physical confirmation button before the file can be interacted with.

Payment
ECOMI Vault will use private key staking. That is to say, any user who owns OMI Tokens can add OMI tokens to the
DApp private key and gain access without having to pay an additional fee. If they do not hold OMI tokens, there will
also be options for annual or monthly fees, payable by credit card or cryptocurrency.

5.0 ECOMI Collect
Since mid-2017 there has been an explosion in interest for digital collectables. For example, C
​ ryptoKitties​, a
collection of ‘breedable’ unique digital cats which, in some cases, sold for over two hundred thousand dollars each.
People have an innate desire to own things that are scarce, and desired by others, and this is exactly what ECOMI
Collect offers: licensed, one-off (or limited), digital products with verifiable ownership. This emergence of digital
collectables is on the precipice of entering the $200 billion collectable market ​1​, and has the potential to scale it in
ways never seen before.

ECOMI intends to obtain the necessary licensing rights to collectables in the form of a ‘Non Fungible Token’ (NFT) -
essentially a digital asset that has a verified owner – and offer them through ECOMI Collect. These NFT’s represent
unique collectable items, such as rare cards or characters, that exist in the digital space, and each can be traced to a
verified owner.

Problem:​ Despite massive revenues, many of the digital collectables that have entered the market are unknown,
non-licensed digital products. In addition, the user interfaces to purchase / collect these first-generation digital
collectibles may have been created for users familiar with the crypto-space, and as such, may have hindered broader
adoption.

Solution: W
​ ith ECOMI Collect, users can browse a wide range of high quality licensed, digital products, in an easy to
use and well-designed app. Crypto-collectables can be easily purchased, and then securely stored on the Secure
Wallet or ECOMI One. Once purchased, collectable owners can view, trade, or augment their digital collectables from
within ECOMI Collect.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 25


Augmented Reality
ECOMI Collect aims to visualise these digital collectables using the latest
in Augmented Reality (AR) technologies, which now comes standard in
Apple and Samsung phones. With quality, licensed materials, ECOMI
intends to create an unique experience, bringing to life one-of-a-kind
licensed digital collectables, right in front of the owners’ eyes.

Each collectable is planned to have animated properties, such as


movement and a limited range of actions. Future releases of ECOMI
Collect will allow collectable owners to augment their collectables, with
new clothes or weapons, for example. Eventually, collectables are
expected to be able to interact with each other - for example, two
collectable owners could battle their one-of-a-kind Stormtroopers in the
AR / 3D space.

People within the ECOMI team, board, and advisors have more than 20+
years in licensing games and collectables and will use these connections
to bring ECOMI Collect to life.

Why Digital Collectables


Collectables have existed throughout human history, and today they come in many forms such as trading cards,
figurines, comics, and toys. Digital collectables have shown extreme promise to date and are on track to be the next
generation of collect-o-mania. There are many possible reasons why digital collectables show a promising future:

● People have an innate desire to own things that are scarce, and desired by others.
● The technology employed by ECOMI allows for the creation of these scarce, digital assets.
● Massive untapped global liquidity pool for digital collectable purchases.
● A ledger that maintains immutable ownership of Non-Fungible-Tokens.
● Peer-to-peer transfer of digital collectables between owners without an intermediary e.g. broker.
● Proven scarcity: NFTs can be programmed to ‘only create 100’, or whatever value is desired.
● Opportunity for license holders to break into a huge emerging market with quality digital assets.
● ECOMI Collectables are 100% unique, cannot be replicated, re-created or destroyed.
● Ownership, history, and usage rights are recorded and easily tracked.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 26


Partnerships
To ensure the vision of ECOMI Collect comes to fruition, ECOMI has partnered with a number of leading providers in
gaming, AR / VR, licensing, and NFT developments, as well as retail partners:

Crypto-Collectables
In the crypto collectables space, there are many variations for product offerings that can be created, starting with the
collectable itself, and then numerous add-ons such as props, animations, scenes, and more.

Collectable Offerings:
● 2D collectables with AR (Augmented Reality) function
● 3D collectables with AR function
● 2D/3D collectables with AR function and single animation cycle e.g. walk, run, etc
● 2D/3D collectables with AR function and multiple animation cycles e.g. walk, stop, run, etc

Add-ons
● Items for 2D/3D collectables
● Scenes for 2D/3D collectables
● Props for collectable scenes
● Animation sequences for scenes e.g. walk a character around
● Worlds or larger environments collectables can navigate through
Tools
● Scene builders
● Collectables mods (add new props / items / posable)
● ‘Photo’ feature to share with friends and on social
Gameplay
● Interaction between multiple players with built in gameplay
● Roleplay or turn-based interactions
● Multiplayer capabilities / MMORPGs

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 27


Why ECOMI Collect

Distribution
All ECOMI Collectables will be purchased, sold, and traded through the ECOMI Collect App. On the secondary market,
users can exchange or transfer collectables peer to peer in the ECOMI Collect marketplace.

Counterfeit Protection
A key advantage of crypto collectables is that each collectable is a uniquely generated asset and cannot be
duplicated. Each digital asset is recorded in the blockchain, which is impossible to manipulate, and ties ownership
directly to the verified owner.

Advertising & Marketing


For each collectable series published, ECOMI aims to have a dedicated marketing budget to secure ‘eyeballs’ on the
product. This will be a two-fold approach: 1. ECOMI Collect existing customers, and 2. New customers based on the
audience of the series / license to be released. Marketing initiatives will be primarily weighted to online marketing,
given the digital nature of the product, with a smaller percentage allocated to traditional offline marketing.

Security
ECOMI provides a highly secure hardware wallet, which keeps digital assets safe from cyber criminals. The Secure
Wallet securely stores the ‘private keys’ that hold access to digital assets, such as Crypto collectables. The security
employed by the Secure Wallet is CC EAL5+, the same standards used for government-level deployments. Crypto
collectable owners are further protected by the robust loss prevention built-in to the Secure Wallet. If a Secure
Wallet is lost, the digital asset (private keys) held within remain securely protected. To restore access to the digital
assets / crypto-digital collectables, the owner simply purchases a replacement Secure Wallet, enters their ‘recovery
phrase’ (generated when the Secure Wallet is set up) and their digital assets are immediately restored.

OMI Initial Token Sale
ECOMI intends to run a Token Generation Event (TGE) to develop the wider ECOMI Ecosystem. ECOMI will sell
approximately 500,000,000 OMI Tokens (OMI) during the TGE. It is envisioned that the sale of these tokens will both
raise funds for the ECOMI long-term initiatives, and secondly, raise awareness and support for the ECOMI Ecosystem.

The purchase of tokens during the TGE allows purchasers to obtain OMI tokens at a fixed price. In future, users who
have no tokens will have to buy OMI tokens from existing token holders in order to use products and services in the
ECOMI Ecosystem.

Token Utility
The OMI Token may be utilized in a variety of ways. To begin, the OMI Token will be used for application and content
access throughout the ECOMI Ecosystem.

All DApps, including ECOMI Collect and Vault will be funded by ‘OMI Tokens’ in one of the following ways: cold storage
private key staking, one-time payments, per access payment or recurring payments (depending on the DApp being
used).

When staking, a certain number of tokens are required to be held in the address (private key) associated with the
DApp being used. For example, in the proposed ECOMI Vault system, the user creates an account, and an
associated address (private key) within the ECOMI App. They will then have the option to stake OMI Tokens by
holding them in the address, granting the user free access to, and use of, the decentralized storage offered by
ECOMI Vault.

Staking OMI tokens is used in lieu of the paid subscription option, and provides access to all services offered, free of
ongoing costs, simply for holding the minimum required amount of OMI tokens. Conversely, if the tokens were
moved out of the address, the user would need to use another payment method, such as a monthly subscription
fee, to continue using the service, or, replace the minimum OMI tokens required to regain access.

Staking will be available on ECOMI Vault, ECOMI Collect, and many future DApps.

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 33


ECOMI Master Collector
The option to stake OMI Tokens becomes particularly rewarding on the ECOMI Collect DApp. By implementing a
‘Proof of Collector’ protocol within EOMI Collect, OMI token holders will have the option to stake tokens against their
ECOMI Collect account, and thereby increase their ECOMI Collector ranking.

Benefits of ECOMI Collector rankings include:


● Receive free collectables that are unavailable to other platform users
● Be rewarded with access to rare and limited edition collectables, only available to ECOMI Collectors.
The higher the collectors ranking the higher % chance of receiving limited edition NFTs and rewards.
● Priority access to purchase newly listed collectables
● Participate in governance for user submissions and rentals
● Collectors will have access to many other retail and physical collectible benefits including the ability
to participate in location based activities and launch events.

Depending on the amount of OMI held, and length of time they are held for, collectors will be able to ‘rank up’ to
master collector status, where they will also be rewarded with the opportunity to:

● Earn a higher % of the exchange/rental fee for providing network support. For example, once ECOMI
Collect has been established, master collectors will govern all user submissions, and earn a
commission for their work.
● Manage arbitration and escrow between parties, to facilitate sale and rentals of digital collectibles
and artworks. This will use OMI tokens as the security deposit, and Master Collectors will also receive
commission for their participation.

There will be also be other ways to increase your collector ranking including social activities, competitions and
collector achievements.

OMI Tokens may be acquired directly from ECOMI during the crowdsale and after from cryptocurrency exchanges or
via fiat purchase.

THIRD PARTY INFORMATION AND NO CONSENT OF OTHER PERSONS

You should consult your own legal financial, tax or other professional adviser regarding ECOMI and their respective
businesses and operations, the OMI tokens, the OMI Initial Token Sale and the Secure Wallet (each as referred to in
the Whitepaper). You should be aware that you may be required to bear the financial risk of any purchase of OMI

No person has been or is authorized to give any information or representation not contained in this Whitepaper in
connection with ECOMI and its respective businesses and operations, the OMI Tokens, the OMI Initial Token Sale,
and the Secure Wallet (each as referred to in the Whitepaper) and, if given, such information or representation must
not be relied upon as having been authorized by or on behalf of ECOMI.

The OMI Initial Token Sale (as referred to in the Whitepaper) shall not, under any circumstances, constitute a
continuing representation or create any suggestion or implication that there has been no change, or development
reasonably likely to involve a material change in the affairs, conditions and prospects of ECOMI or in any statement of
fact or information contained in this Whitepaper since the date hereof.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES


Prospective purchasers of OMI Tokens (as referred to in this Whitepaper) should carefully consider and evaluate all
risks and uncertainties associated with ECOMI, and their respective businesses and operations, the OMI Tokens, the
OMI Initial Token Sale and the Secure Wallet (each as referred to in the Whitepaper), including all information set out
in this Whitepaper prior to any purchase of OMI tokens. If any of such risks and uncertainties develops into actual
events, the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of ECOMI could be materially and
adversely affected. In such cases, you may lose all or part of the value of the OMI tokens.

The regulatory status of cryptographic tokens, including any digital currency, digital assets and blockchain
applications is unclear or unsettled in many jurisdictions. The publication and dissemination of this document do not
imply that any relevant laws, regulations and rules have been complied with. No regulatory authority has examined
or approved this document. Where any relevant governmental authority makes changes to existing laws, regulations
and/or rules, or where financial institutions make certain commercial decisions, it may have a material adverse effect
and/or impair the ability of any relevant entity referred to in the document to function as intended, or at all. There
are risks involved in the technologies relating to the Ethereum blockchain, and the OMI tokens, such as unforeseen
bugs, security issues or disruptions. By way of the above and other factors not within our control, the entire sum
used to purchase the OMI tokens may be lost.

ECOMI may contract with third parties to develop and license their products and/or technology for use within the
ECOMI Ecosystem. While ECOMI will take all commercially reasonable steps to secure the necessary rights and

ECOMI | Whitepaper | 1.09 47


licenses, there are risks and uncertainties associated with the business and operations of such third party
contractors that are beyond ECOMI’s control and they may not deliver on the products and/or technology. There is
also a risk that ECOMI does not succeed in obtaining and/or renewing the necessary rights and licenses to such third
party products and/or technology mentioned in this Whitepaper. Such events may have a material adverse effect on
the function, deployment and use of the ECOMI Ecosystem as intended.

This Whitepaper does not identify, or claim to identify, all the risk factors connected with ECOMI and its businesses
and operations, the OMI Tokens, the OMI Initial Token Sale, and the Secure Wallet (each as referred to in the
Whitepaper). The disclaimers set out above are not exhaustive. A more comprehensive list will be set out in other
documents that may be published by ECOMI from time to time. You must make your own independent evaluation,
after making such investigations as you consider essential, of the merits of participating in the Token Sale and after
obtaining your own independent professional advice. To the fullest extent possible, ECOMI shall not be liable for any
responsibility, liability, claims, demands and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known
and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to any acceptance or
reliance on the information set forth in this document by you.
