07 Characteristics of the crypto-asset

$DOJO is the official Fan Token of the Ninjas in Pyjamas (NIP) esports brand. It is a utility-centric community token created to enable NIP fans to engage with the organization on-chain. The $DOJO Token will be used directly within the NIP’s native fan loyalty and engagement platform, The Dojo Platform to shape various user experiences including tiering up loyalty tiers, accessing exclusive content and exclusive selected NIP merchandise and experiences. $DOJO tokens may also have additional utility on the Socios.com fan engagement and rewards platform subject to NIP’s discretion. These utilities may include fan voting options, and a lock-for-rewards mechanism, which allows users to temporarily lock $DOJO tokens in exchange for potential NIP rewards or prizes. However, these features are not guaranteed and remain solely at NIP’s discretion.

Notwithstanding the aforementioned, for the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that the $DOJO token does not strictly qualify as a utility token under Article 3 of the Regulation (EU) 2023/1114, as the associated utilities are not provided directly by the issuer and is therefore qualified as one ‘other cryptoasset’.

All funds collected from the sale of $DOJO Tokens will be classified as revenue and shared between NIP and the Offeror, i.e. a Swiss based company Socios Technologies AG (“STAG”). A portion of the proceeds will be used to fund utility provisioning for the $DOJO Token, including the acquisition of ticketing, merchandise and experiential prizes offered as rewards to token holders.

The $DOJO exemplifies a transparent and regulated approach to Fan Token issuance, ensuring that purchasers are informed, protected, and treated fairly under applicable European Union (hereinafter referred to as the “EU”) legislation, especially Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (“MiCA”), which grants prospective purchasers with the following guarantees, among others:

Rights and Obligations of the Purchaser:

  • Purchasers are entitled to a transparent and truthful white paper (i.e. this document), focusing on accurate disclosure of risks and other relevant details.
  • EEA-based retail purchasers also benefit from the right to a withdrawal period during the public offer, which they can use to claim a refund of their contributions if they become unsure of their purchase.
  • It is made clear that any rights of the purchasers (particularly the right of withdrawal) as defined under the Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 and described in this white paper apply only to EEA-based retail purchasers.

 

Exercise of Rights:

Pending the $DOJO Token Offering (“Offering”) period, EEA-based retail purchasers may claim back their Chiliz tokens (“$CHZ”) from Socios Services Baltics, UAB, (“SSB”) a Lithuanian-based company authorized by the FIAU in Lithuania to provide custody services acting in its capacity solely as custodian on behalf of the Offeror as required under Article 10(3) point (b) of the Regulation (EU) 2023/1114, if such users decide to cancel their purchase order of the $DOJO Tokens during the subscription period.

To facilitate this, they can easily initiate the cancellation process through their transaction history within their Socios.com digital wallet (“Socios.com Wallet”). A “Cancel” button will be available next to the relevant transaction entry. Upon selecting this option, a $DOJO purchaser will be prompted to confirm their cancellation request. Once confirmed, a new transaction entry will appear in the user’s transaction history, confirming the request is being processed. Once confirmed, the refund process will be initiated immediately. The corresponding amount of $CHZ will be returned to the participant’s Socios.com Wallet, with the refund being processed as soon as the blockchain network completes the necessary transactions. The exact timing of the refund will depend on network conditions, but the process is designed to ensure the fastest possible settlement.

In the event of public offer cancellation, all participants are entitled to a full refund. The refunds will be initiated by the custodian engaged by the offeror, i.e. SSB, directly to the users’ Socios.com Wallets.

Modification of Rights and Obligations:

  • Rights and obligations of $DOJO purchasers are fixed and cannot be modified arbitrarily. Any changes would need to align with MiCA’s requirements and be clearly disclosed in the subsequently updated white paper and related documentation.
  • Due to the limited duration of the public offer, no modifications to the outlined rights or obligations are expected during the subscription period.

Financial Performance and Strategic Progress

Over the past three years, the company has demonstrated a clear trajectory toward financial stability, driven by disciplined cost management, strategic growth initiatives, and operational improvements. Following a highly profitable year in 2021, the company faced a net loss in 2022 due to challenging market conditions, rising operating expenses, and significant investments in scaling its business. However, in 2023, decisive measures to enhance efficiency, optimize expenditures, and strengthen revenue streams led to a substantial reduction in losses.

By 2024, these efforts had significantly improved financial performance, with key metrics reflecting a strong upward trend:

  • Revenue Growth: Revenue increased by more than 70% from 2023 to 2024, signaling renewed momentum in the company’s core business—Fan Token sales—supported by a recovering crypto market.

  • Profitability: Despite incurring losses in 2023, the company’s profitability improved by over 60% in 2024 due to rising revenue and enhanced financial efficiency.

As of 2024, the company is actively working toward break-even, leveraging sustained revenue growth, improved margins, and a more resilient business model. Financial and operational performance indicators point to steady progress, underpinned by stable cash flows and a well-structured capital strategy. The company has demonstrated strong financial improvements in 2024, marked by higher revenue, reduced losses, improved cash flow, and stronger margins.

Future Outlook

Looking ahead, the company remains committed to further strengthening its revenue and profitability, capitalizing on the improving crypto market and increasing demand for Fan Tokens. A continued focus on cost management and revenue expansion will enhance financial stability. Additionally, the company is undertaking a strategic review to eliminate unnecessary expenses, thereby improving long-term profitability. With a solid foundation in place, it is well-positioned for continued financial growth and sustainable profitability.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

The company’s key KPIs reflect its core business priorities:

  • Fan Token Sales: The company’s primary business, Fan Token sales, has shown strong performance over the past year. Despite volatility in the crypto market, it has successfully maintained substantial sales volumes. With a market rebound, management expects further improvement in this KPI.

  • Expansion of Fan Token Offerings: The company actively seeks new partnerships to expand its portfolio of Fan Tokens and plans to launch new tokens in 2025.

  • Enhanced Fan Token Utility: Management is focused on increasing the utility of Fan Tokens, both through the company’s own platform and third-party collaborations. Providing greater utility encourages long-term holding and enhances token value.

Capital Resources

The company’s capital resources are primarily derived from Fan Token sales, ensuring a sustainable funding model aligned with business growth.

Non-Financial Factors

Beyond financial metrics, the company’s success is underpinned by its reliance on highly skilled personnel and efficient resource allocation, reinforcing the strength of its operational model.

Part F – Information about the crypto-assets

Information about the crypto-assets

F.1 Crypto-Asset Type

The $DOJO Token is an ERC-20 equivalent (CAP-20) fungible token issued and stored on the Chiliz Chain, a fully sovereign EVM-compatible layer 1 blockchain. Its key utility and functionality is as an IP-tied community token whose ownership demarcates proof of fandom within the organization (NIP) it is issued on behalf of.

Ownership of the $DOJO Token entitles owners access to all $DOJO token-gated features offered on day of issuance and in the future by both NIP via its native platforms or, potentially on the Socios.com platform at sole discretion of NIP and for the duration of the contractual relationship between NIP and Socios Technologies AG, the issuer/offeror of the $DOJO Token.

The $DOJO Token, importantly, has no legal or otherwise rights or obligations attached to it either by those purchasing the token or the Team the token is issued on behalf of, nor does it entitle holders thereof to participate in any decisions which are ordinarily reserved to corporate bodies or vested in directors and shareholders of either NIP or Socios Technologies AG, nor shall it entitle holders to receive any sort of profits generated by NIP or Socios Technologies AG.

Token Classification:

The $DOJO Token is designed as a fungible token that enhances fan engagement and interaction within the NIP community. Its primary purpose is to serve as a community-driven token, offering exclusive access, experiences, and participation opportunities within the NIP ecosystem.

Therefore, $DOJO token falls within the definition of crypto-asset set forth in article 3 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114) as it is a digital representation of a value or of a right that is able to be transferred and stored electronically using distributed ledger technology or similar technology (Chiliz Chain).

$DOJO does not purport to maintain a stable value and, thus, it should be classified as a crypto-asset other than asset-referenced token or e-money token.

For the avoidance of doubt, the $DOJO token does not strictly qualify as a utility token under Article 3 of the Regulation (EU) 2023/1114, as the associated utilities are not provided directly by the issuer.

Blockchain:

The $DOJO operates on the Chiliz Chain, a fully sovereign EVM-compatible layer 1 blockchain.

Allocation and Distribution:

A total of 75,000 $DOJO tokens will be distributed during a fair-launch public offer, with the focus of the initial launch being on equitable access for participants.

F.2 Crypto-Asset Functionality

Purpose

The $DOJO Token is designed as a community-driven crypto-asset that serves as proof of fandom within the NIP ecosystem. Issued on the Chiliz Chain (a sovereign EVM-compatible Layer 1 blockchain), the token represents a symbol of engagement and participation, allowing fans to access exclusive features and experiences tied to NIP and Team´s (esports teams relating to the Ninjas in Pyjamas brand) own platforms, including but not limited to The Dojo platform .

Utility

As an IP-tied community token, the $DOJO Token provides holders with access to token-gated features that may be available at the time of issuance and in the future, both on NIP’s native platforms (including The Dojo platform), and potentially via Socios.com, subject to the mutual agreement of NIP and Socios Technologies AG. These features may include engagement opportunities, and fan-based interactions.

However, the $DOJO Token does not grant any legal, financial, or ownership rights, nor does it impose any obligations on NIP, Socios Technologies AG, or the token holders. It is purely a digital membership asset designed to enhance fan interaction and shall not entitle holders thereof to participate in any decisions which are ordinarily reserved to corporate bodies or vested in directors and shareholders of either NIP or Socios Technologies AG, nor shall it entitle holders to receive any sort of profits generated by NIP or Socios Technologies AG.

In Short

The $DOJO Token is a community token with no financial rights or obligations—a purely engagement-focused crypto-asset built for fan interaction and token-gated experiences within the NIP ecosystem, notably The Dojo platform.

F.3 Planned Application of Functionalities

Token holders may have access to a range of $DOJO token-gated features, which can be accessed through NIP’s native platforms or any other platform as may be decided in the future including the Socios.com fan engagement and rewards platform.

The functionalities available shall include, but not be limited to, benefits to be availed of on the NIP and Team’s (esports teams relating to the Ninjas in Pyjamas brand) own platforms.

Over time, additional functionalities may be introduced, further enhancing the token holder experience.

$DOJO

S.4 Consensus Mechanism

The consensus mechanism, as reported in field H.4

$DOJOis issued on the Chiliz Chain: The Chiliz Chain relies on a Proof-of-Staked-Authority (PoSA) consensus mechanism, which integrates elements of Proof-of-Authority (PoA) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS). In this implementation, a limited set of validators, currently capped at 12, take turns producing and validating blocks. Validators are selected based on the amount of $CHZ tokens (The Chiliz Chain’s native token) they staked on-chain.. This hybrid approach ensures rapid block times and cost-effective transactions while maintaining network security and integrity. Advanced security features, including double-sign detection and slashing mechanisms, are implemented to uphold the chain’s stability and finality.

S.5 Incentive Mechanisms and Applicable Fees

Incentive mechanisms to secure transactions and any fees applicable, as reported in field H.5

$DOJO is issued on the Chiliz Chain: On the Chiliz Chain, both validators and delegators are incentivized through a structured staking model. Validators are responsible for creating and validating blocks, and in return, they earn rewards derived from transaction fees and a portion of the network’s inflationary token supply. Delegators, who may not run validator nodes themselves, can participate by delegating their $CHZ tokens to chosen validators. This delegation allows them to earn a share of the validators rewards proportional to the amount of $CHZ tokens delegated, thereby promoting broader community involvement and greater security. Transaction fees are low and encourage widespread participation and high volume of transactions. Additionally, the network has implemented a transaction fee burning mechanism inspired by EIP-1559 governance proposal, where a significant portion of the gas fees is burned at the protocol level, introducing a deflationary mechanism to $CHZ token supply.

To determine the proportion of renewable energy usage, the locations of the nodes are to be determined using public information sites, open-source crawlers and crawlers developed in-house. If no information is available on the geographic distribution of the nodes, reference networks are used which are comparable in terms of their incentivization structure and consensus mechanism. This geo-information is merged with public information from the European Environment Agency (EEA) and thus determined.
