BDX Token: The native cryptographically-secured fungible
protocol token of the Beldex ecosystem (ticker symbol BDX) is a
transferable representation of attributed utility functions
specified in the protocol/code of the Beldex ecosystem, and which is
designed to be used solely as an interoperable utility token
thereon.
BDX is a functional utility token which will be used as the medium
of exchange between participants on the Beldex ecosystem in a
decentralised manner. The goal of introducing BDX is to provide a
convenient and secure mode of payment and settlement between
participants who interact within the ecosystem on the Beldex
ecosystem, and it is not, and not intended to be, a medium of
exchange accepted by the public (or a section of the public) as
payment for goods or services or for the discharge of a debt; nor is
it designed or intended to be used by any person as payment for any
goods or services whatsoever that are not exclusively provided by
the issuer. BDX does not in any way represent any shareholding,
participation, right, title, or interest in the Company, the
Distributor, their respective affiliates, or any other company,
enterprise or undertaking, nor will BDX entitle token holders to any
promise of fees, dividends, revenue, profits or investment returns,
and are not intended to constitute securities in Singapore or any
relevant jurisdiction. BDX may only be utilised on the Beldex
ecosystem, and ownership of BDX carries no rights, express or
implied, other than the right to use BDX as a means to enable usage
of and interaction within the Beldex ecosystem.
BDX also provides the economic incentives which will be distributed
to encourage users to contribute to and participate in the ecosystem
on the Beldex ecosystem, thereby creating a mutually beneficial
system where every participant is fairly compensated for its
efforts. BDX is an integral and indispensable part of the Beldex
ecosystem, because without BDX, there would be no incentive for
users to expend resources to participate in activities or provide
services for the benefit of the entire ecosystem on the Beldex
ecosystem. Given that additional BDX will be awarded to a user based
only on its actual usage, activity and contribution on the Beldex
ecosystem and/or proportionate to the frequency and volume of
transactions, users of the Beldex ecosystem and/or holders of BDX
which did not actively participate will not receive any BDX
incentives.
The Beldex ecosystem itself is simply a blockchain protocol id=""
which, by design, does not own or run any computing/storage servers,
so in order for users to utilise the network for transactions, it
would need to pay network validators/nodes a certain amount of
network transaction fees to confirm and execute the transaction and
record these on the blockchain. BDX will be used as the native
currency to quantify
BDX are designed to be utilised, and that is the goal of the BDX
distribution. In fact, the project to develop the Beldex ecosystem
would fail if all BDX holders simply held onto their BDX and did
nothing with it. In particular, it is highlighted that BDX:
(a) does not have any tangible or physical manifestation, and does
not have any intrinsic value (nor does any person make any
representation or give any commitment as to its value); (b) is
non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for cash (or its equivalent
value in any other digital asset) or any payment obligation by the
Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates; (c)
does not represent or confer on the token holder any right of any
form with respect to the Company, the Distributor (or any of their
respective affiliates), or its revenues or assets, including without
limitation any right to receive future dividends, revenue, shares,
ownership right or stake, share or security, any voting,
distribution, redemption, liquidation, proprietary (including all
forms of intellectual property or licence rights), right to receive
accounts, financial statements or other financial data, the right to
requisition or participate in shareholder meetings, the right to
nominate a director, or other financial or legal rights or
equivalent rights, or intellectual property rights or any other form
of participation in or relating to the Beldex ecosystem, the
Company, the Distributor and/or their service providers; (d) is not
intended to represent any rights under a contract for differences or
under any other contract the purpose or pretended purpose of which
is to secure a profit or avoid a loss; (e) is not intended to be a
representation of money (including electronic money), security,
commodity, bond, debt instrument, unit in a collective investment
scheme or any other kind of financial instrument or investment; (f)
is not a loan to the Company, the Distributor or any of their
respective affiliates, is not intended to represent a debt owed by
the Company, the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates,
and there is no expectation of profit; and (g) does not provide the
token holder with any ownership or other interest in the Company,
the Distributor or any of their respective affiliates.
Notwithstanding the BDX distribution, users have no economic or
legal right over or beneficial interest in the assets of the
Company, the Distributor, or any of their affiliates after the token
distribution.
To the extent a secondary market or exchange for trading BDX does
develop, it would be run and operated wholly independently of the
Company, the Distributor, the distribution of BDX and the Beldex
ecosystem. Neither the Company nor the Distributor will create such
secondary markets nor will either entity act as an exchange for BDX.
