• Per-transaction fee is too high
• Most of the games were not designed to operate in a mobile environment such as smartphones
• High barriers to developer entry due to factors such as building the development environment and learning unique programming languages

1. Mobile Compatible Browser with Cryptocurrency Wallet, tentatively named “pochi”
   For phase one, we plan to offer a browser with cryptocurrency wallet, tentatively named “pochi” that supports the mobile environment. We plan to release this around the summer of 2018. This enables users to manage their cryptocurrency in a user friendly environment.
   Cryptocurrency trades are rapidly expanding in the world. According to the Financial Services Agency, the global Ethereum wallet number has exceeded 32 million as of the end of March 2018 (from the agenda of the Financial Services Agency "Study Group on the Cryptocurrency Exchange Industry (first meeting)" dated April 10, 2018)
   With “pochi”, we can increase the contact between our company and cryptocurrency users, and it would be possible for us to aim for a key position in the cryptocurrency economy, where further expansion is expected in the future.
2. Application Platform, tentatively named “uniqys”
   After that, for phase two, we aim to release the application platform “uniqys” and are currently conducting R&D. In this application platform “uniqys”, users can easily use applications with"pochi".
   Also, with the platform “uniqys” that solves the issues that our company found (see *1) being built, it will be possible for application developers to provide services in an environment with higher user satisfaction.
   We will inform you about “uniqys” once again as soon as we have a better idea of the release date.
3. Game on “uniqys”
   For phase three, we will be creating a game as an application developer, and is making preparations to release it at the same time as the release of “uniqys”. The game will reflect the game development experience and knowledge that our company has cultivated until now, and we are planning a game that will give users a new play experience.
   Also, in the future, we plan to offer various applications as well as games.
