D1 COIN
Overview: D1 Coin is a diamond-backed blockchain token built on the Ethereum blockchain according to the ERC-20 protocol
Backing: Each D1 Coin is pegged to 1/1000th the value of a D1 Standard Grade diamond, which are authentic and natural diamonds of the highest quality
Value: Each diamond is valued using a proprietary diamond pricing algorithm, the D1 Matrix, to obtain an unbiased and fair value of the underlying diamond inventory
| KEY PRINCIPLES OF D1 COIN | BENEFITS OF D1 COIN |
Transparency:.A.multi ledger.blockchain.system.is.utilized
.to.store.all.token.and.diamond.information,.such.as
.transaction.details.and.diamond provenance | Trading.Liquidity:.Asset Backed.Tokens.like.D1.coins.are
.traded.more.frequently.than.conventional.cryptocurrencies,
.ensuring.greater.liquidity |
| Verity:.D1.Mint.employs.trusted.third-party.accounting.firms.to.conduct.unbiased.audits.on.the.underlying.diamond.inventory | Physical.Liquidity:.D1.Coins.are.generally.freely.and.easily
.redeemable.for.the.corresponding.underlying.diamonds,.ensuring.users
.have.a.safe.exit.from.the.crypto.market |
| Custody:.Diamond.inventory.is.stored.in.secured.vaults.with.Brinks.and.Malca-Amit.in.Singapore.and.Switzerland,.and.insured.by.Lloyds | Downside Protection: Holders of D1 coins can arbitrage by redeeming diamonds if prices of D1 Coins fall below the underlying value of diamonds, setting a price floor on D1 Coin prices |
| Convertibility: Each D1 Coin can be converted into the underlying diamonds any time and in any amount; the converted diamonds can be collected via pickup or international delivery | Investibility of Diamonds: Diamonds are made more investible as an investment class through investment and trading in D1 Coins |
| D1 DIAMOND DELIVERY OR COLLECTION | D1 MATRIX DIAMOND PRICING MODEL |

.to.the.buyers.desired.address.through.trusted.logistics.companies
.such.as.FedEx,.UPS,.Brinks.and.Malca-Amit | Artificial.Intelligence.(A.I.):.The.D1.Matrix.is.driven.by.A.I..and

.Regression,.Random.Forests.and.Neural.Networks |
| Airport Collection: D1 allows the collection of diamonds at the Singapore or Switzerland airports by arranging for a representative to meet and deliver the diamonds to the buyer | Analytical: The D1 Matrix analyses relationship between a diamonds 4Cs (Carat, Cut, Clarity and Color) and 7 other characteristics with the corresponding current and historical prices |
| Collection from Vaults: Diamond buyers may pick up their redeemed diamonds directly from the secured storage partners in Singapore and Switzerland | Real-World Based: Data from Rapaport, which is the leading diamond pricing benchmark index, is used as the inputs for the D1 Matrix |

DIAMONDS AS AN INVESTMENT CLASS
_______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________
DIAMOND DEMAND-SUPPLY GAP
Very Rare: Natural and authentic diamonds take billions of years to form and the average yield mining is 1 part diamond to 1,000,000 parts host-rocks
Limited Supply: Supply of natural diamonds are declining due to exhaustion of operating mines and the fact that a new diamond mine is discovered only once in a generation
Increasing Demand: Demand for diamonds is projected to grow c. 3% annually, driven by growing demand from India and China
Increasing Scarcity: Demand-supply gap of diamonds is expected to increase to 159 million carats by 2030
DIAMONDS AS A STORE OF WEALTH
Strong store of value: Diamonds have shown consistent and stable inflation-beating appreciation, with a 5% CAGR from 2003 to 2017 after the end of the De Beers monopoly in 2003
Upward Price Pressure: Diamond prices are expected to increase in the coming decades due to the growing demand-supply gap, making them an ideal investment class
TOKENIZING DIAMONDS
Tokenization solves many problems associated with investing in physical diamonds. Using diamonds as the underlying asset for an Asset-Backed Token provides solutions to problems associated with traditional cryptocurrencies and tokens
| PROBLEMS WITH PHYSICAL DIAMOND INVESTMENT | SOLUTIONS PROVIDED THROUGH TOKENIZATION |
Heterogeneous:.Each.diamond.is.unique.as.appraisals,.and
.thus.valuation,.of.the.same.diamond.may.differ.across.dealers | Fungible:.Each.blockchain.token.is.identical,.making.them
.an.easier.way.to.trade.the.underlying.asset |
| Illiquid: Diamond sales are cumbersome and often result is wide bid-offer spread | Liquid: Token transactions occur on crypto exchanges, are easy and have low fees |
| Expensive: The high price point of a diamond creates a high barrier for potential investors | Accessible: The denomination of tokens is very low, allowing
a greater number of investors to participate in an asset pool |

| PROBLEMS WITH TRADITIONAL CRYPTOCURRENCIES AND TOKENS | SOLUTIONS PROVIDED THROUGH USING DIAMONDS AS AN UNDERLYING ASSET |
| Volatile: Most cryptocurrencies are valued purely on market sentiment, causing large price swings and high volatility | Stable: Diamonds have displayed price stability and long- term appreciation for decades |
