Edgemode, Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Edgemode, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “Edgemode” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2022, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted.

 

On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc.

 

Effective January 31, 2022 (the “Effective Time”), the Company, FWAV Acquisition Corp., a Wyoming corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition Subsidiary”) and EdgeMode, a Wyoming corporation (“EdgeMode”) closed on the previously disclosed Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated December 2, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Subsidiary merged with and into EdgeMode (the “Merger” or “Transaction”), with EdgeMode remaining as the surviving entity after the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In the Merger, the shares of common stock, no par value per share, of EdgeMode issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, represent 80% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis (or 313,950,672 shares of common stock). Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of the Merger the Company’s sole shareholder of the Company’s preferred stock converted such shares into 1,000 shares of common stock.

 

Joseph Isaacs, the Company’s sole officer and director resigned as an executive officer and director. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Mr. Isaacs will provide services to the Company in a consultancy capacity at a fee of $11,500 per month and has been issued a stock option grant to purchase up to 19,987,095 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting in 90 days, at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. The consulting agreement may be terminated by the Company without cause after three months. In addition, Mr. Isaacs received a $250,000 cash bonus and the Company entered into a contract with a company owned by Joe Isaacs to perform services for total value of $240,000. Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the principals of EdgeMode, were appointed as directors and executive officers. 

 

Simultaneously with the Merger, approximately $4,574,132 of principal and interest of outstanding notes previously issued by the Company automatically converted into an aggregate of 18,296,528 shares of the Company’s common stock issued to 31 former noteholders. In addition, the Company has repaid approximately $988,000 of principal amount of notes. At the Effective Time the Company has nominal liabilities, excluding the debt and liabilities of EdgeMode.

 

The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby EdgeMode was considered the accounting acquirer and became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger”, the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger has been replaced with the historical financial statements of EdgeMode prior to the reverse merger. The financial statements after completion of the reverse merger include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger, with only certain aspects of pre-consummation stockholders’ equity remaining in the consolidated financial statements.

 

On June 3, 2022 the Company changed its name from Fourth Wave Energy Inc. to Edgemode, Inc.

NOTE 2 – Summary of significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Principals of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edgemode, Inc., the accounts of its 100% owned subsidiaries, EdgeMode and Edgemode Mine Co UK Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

  · Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
     
  · Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
     
  · Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued using level 1, level 2, or level 3 inputs as of September 30, 2023.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts, as amended from time to time, with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time by either party and the Company’s enforceable right to compensation only begins when the Company provides computing power to the mining pool operator. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator which are recorded as a component of cost of revenues), for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The terms of the agreement provides that neither party can dispute settlement terms after thirty-five days following settlement. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm.

 

Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contracts with mining pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at contract inception or the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm) and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

 

Fair value of the cryptocurrency award received is determined using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency at the time of receipt. There is currently no specific definitive guidance under GAAP or alternative accounting framework for the accounting for cryptocurrencies recognized as revenue or held, and management has exercised significant judgment in determining the appropriate accounting treatment. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the FASB, the Company may be required to change its policies, which could have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results from operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.

 

The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company has capitalized qualified direct costs related to its efforts to raise capital through a sale of its common stock in a private offering. Deferred offering costs will be deferred until the completion of the private offering, at which time they will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of the offering proceeds. If the Company terminates the planned offering or there is a significant delay, all of the deferred offering costs will be immediately written off to operating expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of significant delays, $264,706 of deferred offering costs were expensed. No amounts of deferred offering costs are capitalized as of September 30, 2023.

 

Long-Lived Assets – Cryptocurrencies

 

We account for our cryptocurrencies, intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2023, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses as it has suspended its operations until such time, if any, that the Company receives adequate funding, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management has also begun exploring possible opportunities for the Company involving mergers, acquisitions or other business combination transactions in an effort to diversify our business. The Company is not currently a party to any agreement or understandings with any third parties, and there are no assurances even if the Company’s management locates an opportunity which it believes will be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders that it will ever consummate such a transaction. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these efforts. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern.

NOTE 4 – Related Party Transactions

 

The Company’s former CEO, Mr. Isaacs, agreed to provide services to the Company in a consultancy capacity at a fee of $11,500 per month and was issued a stock option grant to purchase up to 19,987,095 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting in 90 days, at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. The consulting agreement may be terminated by the Company without cause after three months. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company and Mr. Isaacs, entered into a settlement and release agreement whereby Mr. Isaacs agreed to a reduction in the compensation to a total of $55,000, subject to the Company making payments on or before May 14, 2023 and June 14, 2023. During the nine months ended, September 30, 2023, the Company made total payments in the aggregate of $65,000 in accordance with the terms of the settlement agreement. No additional amounts are owed to Mr. Isaacs as of September 30, 2023.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated January 31, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment reduces the exercise price of the options from $0.40 per share to $0.06 per share.

 

On March 3, 2023, the board of directors of the Company granted to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively, options to purchase up to 77,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.04 per share, exercisable for five years (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options shall each be a non-qualified option and shall become vested and exercisable upon the Company closing on the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment.

 

On March 3, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated September 12, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment provides for the vesting to be only upon the closing of the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment, rather than conditioned on an uplisting of the Company’s shares on the NASDAQ Global Market, New York Stock Exchange, or another equivalent market.

 

As of September 30, 2023 the Company owed the executive officers of the Company $500,464 in accrued payroll for services performed.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the executive officers of the Company advanced 16,000 to the Company for working capital needs. The advances are non-interest bearing and are due on demand.

 

NOTE 5 – Prepaid Hosting Services

 

Prepaid hosting services are amounts paid to secure the use of data hosting services at a future date or continuously over one or more future periods. When the prepaid hosting services are eventually consumed, they are charged to expense. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had prepaid a total of $1,586,297. In January 2023, the Company was notified of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of the hosting company and in January 2023 the Company received $894,355 in return of the initial deposit and the remainder of the deposit is subject to bankruptcy claims. As a result, the Company impaired $691,942, the remaining amount of the claim, as of December 31, 2022, due to the uncertainty of collectability through the bankruptcy claim. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has $0 of amounts recorded related to the remaining claims due to the uncertainty of collectability.

 

NOTE 6 – Equity

 

Preferred shares

 

We are authorized to issue 4,999,000 shares of preferred stock. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by our Board. The voting powers and preferences, the relative rights of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series will be established by the Board. Our directors may issue preferred stock with multiple votes per share and dividend rights which would have priority over any dividends paid with respect to the holders of our common stock. In connection with the Transaction, the only outstanding preferred stock was converted into common stock. As of the date of this report, there are no outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

 

 10 

 

 

Series B

 

On July 19, 2022, the Company designated 1,000,000 shares of its original 5,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock as Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B”) with a $0.001 par value and a stated value of $1.00 per share. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock with respect to dividends and right of liquidation and has no voting rights. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock has an 8% cumulative annual dividend. In the event of default, the dividend rate increases to 22%. The Company may not, with consent of a majority of the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, alter or changes the rights of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, amend the articles of incorporation, create any other class of stock ranking senior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, increase the authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, or liquidate or dissolve the Company. Beginning 180 days from issuance, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock at a price based on 65% of the average of the two lowest trading prices during the 15 days prior to conversion. The Company may redeem the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock during the first 180 days from issuance, subject to early redemption penalties of up to 25%. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock must be redeemed by the Company 12 months following issuance if not previously redeemed or converted. Based on the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company determined that the preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable and will be accounted for as a liability under ASC 480.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company entered into purchase agreements for the sale of 212,500 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with 1800 Diagonal Lending, LLC, with $11,250 of proceeds being kept by the lender for legal fees, resulting in cash proceeds of $201,250.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company redeemed the Preferred B shares and paid to the holder a total of $270,549 which included the stated value of $212,500, $6,190 in accrued dividends and the early redemption premium of $51,859.

 

Common shares

 

The Company has authorized 950,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001, and as of September 30, 2023 has issued 390,687,459 shares of common stock. All of the common shares have the same voting rights and liquidation preferences.

 

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a previous note holder for settlement of outstanding claims of a note payable that had been paid in full previously. Per the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock, and as a result the Company recorded a loss on settlement of $9,975.

 

Stock Options

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively, options to purchase up to 77,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.04 per share, exercisable for five years (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options shall each be a non-qualified option and shall become vested and exercisable upon the Company closing on the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment. The Company used the black-scholes option pricing model to value the options and determined a fair value of $4,814,035. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not met the contingent vesting requirements, and as such no amounts have been expensed related to these options.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated January 31, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment reduces the exercise price of the options from $0.40 per share to $0.06 per share. As a result of the amendment, the Company recorded an additional $1,236,487 of stock-based compensation expense based on the incremental fair value resulting from the change in exercise price.

 

On March 3, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated September 12, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment provides for the vesting to be only upon the closing of the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment, rather than conditioned on an uplisting of the Company’s shares on the NASDAQ Global Market, New York Stock Exchange, or another equivalent market. No additional expense incurred as a result of the amendment as it was determined there was no change to any of the inputs in the black-scholes option pricing model.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company has $22,529,707 of value remaining to be expensed based upon completions of milestones, of which $21,679,711 is contingently subject to expense recognition based on the timing of when the Company is able to close on a purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment as describe above, and $0 of remaining amortization to expensed pursuant to the vesting terms.

The weighted average remaining life of all outstanding stock options was 4 years as of September 30, 2023. Aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying stock option and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for stock options that were in-the-money at period end.

NOTE 7 – Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable

 

Notes Payable

 

Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company acquired outstanding note payables in the amount of $35,000. These loans were advanced as due on demand and no communication has been received from the original lenders.

 

In April 2023, the Company utilized an existing marginal lending facility with SFOX, a digital assets broker. The marginal lending facility allows the Company to borrow funds up to a maximum aggregate amount of $50,000 to finance its investment activities in digital assets. The terms of the marginal lending facility include an interest rate on the borrowed funds of 11% and the maximum borrowing period under the facility is 28 days, the facility can be rolled over provided there is sufficient collateral. The facility is secured by a pledged collateral of digital assets. The Company is required to maintain a collateral balance equal to 110% of the outstanding principal balance with the lender.

 

As of September 30, 2023 the loan balances and accrued interest are $50,142 and $56,464 of the Company’s cryptocurrency assets are held as restricted by the lender.

Equipment Notes Payable

 

In 2021, the Company entered into multiple financing agreements whereby the company agreed to purchase assets related to its crypto mining operations. The financing agreements required a down payments in the aggregate of $600,408 and 24 equal monthly payments. The Company used a 15% discount rate to determine the net present value of the loan value in the aggregate of $2,441,591. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the company made payments of $248,184 and $1,366,860, respectively, of which $40,032 and $217,467 was recorded as interest expense.

 

On July 11, 2022, the Company terminated its agreements with the vendor for the financed equipment described above. As of September 30, 2023, and through the date of this filing, no agreement or communication from the vendor has been received confirming the terms of the termination, and therefore the Company has maintained these balances in equipment notes payable on the Company's balance sheet. The balance of the loans as of September 30, 2023 is $1,179,972.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Business Overview

 

We are an early-stage cryptocurrency mining company. We have entered into agreements with third party hosting firms and Bitcoin mining facilities for the sole purpose of mining Bitcoin. We require financing to operate the mining of Bitcoin. We ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake. Our mining platform will be operating with the primary intent of accumulating Bitcoin.

 

We require significant financing to commence Bitcoin mining. During late 2022 and early 2023 we have focused on securing a debt facility. We cannot provide any assurances we will receive any capital under a debt facility. Any debt financing will be used to finance the purchase of BTC mining hardware and hosting contracts which, subject to financing. We have suspended our operations subject to receiving additional funding. There are no assurances we will receive adequate financing. Our management has also begun exploring possible opportunities for the Company involving mergers, acquisitions or other business combination transactions in an effort to diversify our business. We are not currently a party to any agreement or understandings with any third parties, and there are no assurances even if our management locates an opportunity which it believes will be in the best interests of our shareholders that we will ever consummate such a transaction. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these efforts.

  

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

We discuss the material accounting policies that are critical in making the estimates and judgments in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”. There has been no material change in critical accounting policies or estimates during the period covered by this report.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Results of operations

 

We had no revenues for the 2023 Quarter compared to $1,805 for the 2022 Quarter. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.

 

We had no cost of revenues for the 2023 Quarter compared to $6,204 for the 2022 Quarter. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.

 

Our operating expenses for the 2023 Quarter was $647,078 compared to $1,191,003, for the 2022 Quarter, a decrease of 46%. In the 2023 Quarter, the Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $0 compared to $318,000 for the 2022 Quarter. The stock based compensation for the 2022 Quarter was related to the issuance of 4,000,000 share of common stock for services.

 

Our other expense for the 2023 Quarter was $20,323 compared to other income of $13,187 for the 2022 Quarter.

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

Results of operations

 

We had no revenues for the 2023 period compared to $438,042 for the 2022 Period. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.

 

We had no cost of revenues for the 2023 Period compared to $812,882 for the 2022 Period. The reason for the decrease was that we ceased Ethereum mining operations in September 2022 when Ethereum switched its consensus protocol to proof of stake.

 

Our operating expenses for the 2023 Period was $2,777,448 compared to $28,185,888, for the 2022 Period, a decrease of 90%. In the 2023 period, the Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $1,236,487 compared to $24,582,181 for the 2022 Period. The stock based compensation for the 2023 Period related to the difference in fair value on the amendment to outstanding options while the 2022 Period was related to vesting of the fair value of stock options and the issuance of 4,000,000 shares.

 

Our other income for the 2023 Period was $394,676 compared to other expense of $66,640 for the 2022 Period. In the 2023 period we received $500,000 related to a refund on an equipment purchase order that was impaired during a previous period.

 

Subject to receiving funding, we expect that our operating expenses will increase as we attempt to develop our new mining operations and we devote additional resources toward new business opportunities. However, as set forth elsewhere in this report, our ability to develop our business and achieve our operational goals is dependent upon our ability to raise significant additional working capital. As the availability of this capital is unlikely and we are unable to quantify at this time the expected increases in operating expenses in future periods.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2023 and November 08, 2023, the Company had approximately $7,600 and $350 of cash, respectively. Our liquidity was primarily derived from debt and equity investments from accredited investors and also from selling the crypto that we mined through September 2022. To recommence our operations and fund operations for the next 12 months, the Company is seeking to raise $75 million in debt facility. We currently have no available sources for capital and we can provide no assurances that any debt financings will be available in the future.

 

We have suspended our operations. If we fail to close on a debt facility or raise sufficient additional funds from other sources, we will be required to abandon our plan of operations.

 

As of November 08, 2023, we have a total of $1,616,690 of debt outstanding that is due within 12 months. See “Subsequent Events” below.

 

The Company has terminated the agreements for approximately $1.6 million of debt for equipment that the Company was using for mining and returned the equipment to the vendor to settle the outstanding liabilities. The Company is making no further payments against the potential balance. No confirmation has been received from 2CRSI and as such the balance remains outstanding on the Company’s balance sheet in the accompanying financial statements

Subsequent Events

The holder has made demand for the immediate payment of the 1800 Notes of a sum representing 150% of the remaining outstanding principal balances of the 1800 Notes in the aggregate of $250,008.99, together with accrued interest and default interest as provided for in the 1800 Notes. We do not have the ability to satisfy any of the amounts due under the 1800 Notes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting result from limited segregation of duties and limited multiple levels of review in the financial close process, along with a lack of well-established policies and procedures to identify, approve, and report related party transactions. 

 

We will continue to monitor our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow. We do not, however, expect that the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls will be remediated until such time as we have added additional personnel, including additional accounting and administrative staff, allowing improved internal control over financial reporting.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

While we attempt to identify, manage, and mitigate risks and uncertainties associated with our business to the extent practical under the circumstances, some level of risk and uncertainty will always be present. Our “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 describes some of the risks and uncertainties associated with our business, which we strongly encourage you to review.

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Edgemode, Inc. (“we”, “our”, “Edgemode” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2022, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted.

 

On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc.

 

Effective January 31, 2022 (the “Effective Time”), the Company, FWAV Acquisition Corp., a Wyoming corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Acquisition Subsidiary”) and EdgeMode, a Wyoming corporation (“EdgeMode”) closed on the previously disclosed Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization dated December 2, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Subsidiary merged with and into EdgeMode (the “Merger” or “Transaction”), with EdgeMode remaining as the surviving entity after the Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In the Merger, the shares of common stock, no par value per share, of EdgeMode issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, represent 80% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis (or 313,950,672 shares of common stock). Furthermore, pursuant to the terms of the Merger the Company’s sole shareholder of the Company’s preferred stock converted such shares into 1,000 shares of common stock.

 

Joseph Isaacs, the Company’s sole officer and director resigned as an executive officer and director. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Mr. Isaacs will provide services to the Company in a consultancy capacity at a fee of $11,500 per month and has been issued a stock option grant to purchase up to 19,987,095 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting in 90 days, at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. The consulting agreement may be terminated by the Company without cause after three months. In addition, Mr. Isaacs received a $250,000 cash bonus and the Company entered into a contract with a company owned by Joe Isaacs to perform services for total value of $240,000. Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the principals of EdgeMode, were appointed as directors and executive officers. 

 

Simultaneously with the Merger, approximately $4,574,132 of principal and interest of outstanding notes previously issued by the Company automatically converted into an aggregate of 18,296,528 shares of the Company’s common stock issued to 31 former noteholders. In addition, the Company has repaid approximately $988,000 of principal amount of notes. At the Effective Time the Company has nominal liabilities, excluding the debt and liabilities of EdgeMode.

 

The merger was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby EdgeMode was considered the accounting acquirer and became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger”, the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger has been replaced with the historical financial statements of EdgeMode prior to the reverse merger. The financial statements after completion of the reverse merger include the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger, with only certain aspects of pre-consummation stockholders’ equity remaining in the consolidated financial statements.

 

On June 3, 2022 the Company changed its name from Fourth Wave Energy Inc. to Edgemode, Inc.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2 – Summary of significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Principals of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edgemode, Inc., the accounts of its 100% owned subsidiaries, EdgeMode and Edgemode Mine Co UK Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

  · Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
     
  · Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
     
  · Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued using level 1, level 2, or level 3 inputs as of September 30, 2023.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts, as amended from time to time, with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time by either party and the Company’s enforceable right to compensation only begins when the Company provides computing power to the mining pool operator. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator which are recorded as a component of cost of revenues), for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The terms of the agreement provides that neither party can dispute settlement terms after thirty-five days following settlement. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm.

 

Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contracts with mining pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at contract inception or the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm) and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

 

Fair value of the cryptocurrency award received is determined using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency at the time of receipt. There is currently no specific definitive guidance under GAAP or alternative accounting framework for the accounting for cryptocurrencies recognized as revenue or held, and management has exercised significant judgment in determining the appropriate accounting treatment. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the FASB, the Company may be required to change its policies, which could have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results from operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.

 

The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company has capitalized qualified direct costs related to its efforts to raise capital through a sale of its common stock in a private offering. Deferred offering costs will be deferred until the completion of the private offering, at which time they will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of the offering proceeds. If the Company terminates the planned offering or there is a significant delay, all of the deferred offering costs will be immediately written off to operating expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of significant delays, $264,706 of deferred offering costs were expensed. No amounts of deferred offering costs are capitalized as of September 30, 2023.

 

Long-Lived Assets – Cryptocurrencies

 

We account for our cryptocurrencies, intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Going Concern

NOTE 3 – Going Concern

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2023, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses as it has suspended its operations until such time, if any, that the Company receives adequate funding, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s management has also begun exploring possible opportunities for the Company involving mergers, acquisitions or other business combination transactions in an effort to diversify our business. The Company is not currently a party to any agreement or understandings with any third parties, and there are no assurances even if the Company’s management locates an opportunity which it believes will be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders that it will ever consummate such a transaction. Accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these efforts. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern.

The Company’s former CEO, Mr. Isaacs, agreed to provide services to the Company in a consultancy capacity at a fee of $11,500 per month and was issued a stock option grant to purchase up to 19,987,095 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting in 90 days, at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. The consulting agreement may be terminated by the Company without cause after three months. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company and Mr. Isaacs, entered into a settlement and release agreement whereby Mr. Isaacs agreed to a reduction in the compensation to a total of $55,000, subject to the Company making payments on or before May 14, 2023 and June 14, 2023.

No additional amounts are owed to Mr. Isaacs as of September 30, 2023.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated January 31, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment reduces the exercise price of the options from $0.40 per share to $0.06 per share.

Preferred shares

 

We are authorized to issue 4,999,000 shares of preferred stock. Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by our Board. The voting powers and preferences, the relative rights of each such series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of each series will be established by the Board. Our directors may issue preferred stock with multiple votes per share and dividend rights which would have priority over any dividends paid with respect to the holders of our common stock. In connection with the Transaction, the only outstanding preferred stock was converted into common stock. As of the date of this report, there are no outstanding shares of preferred stock.

 

Series B

 

On July 19, 2022, the Company designated 1,000,000 shares of its original 5,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock as Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B”) with a $0.001 par value and a stated value of $1.00 per share. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to the common stock with respect to dividends and right of liquidation and has no voting rights. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock has an 8% cumulative annual dividend. In the event of default, the dividend rate increases to 22%. The Company may not, with consent of a majority of the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, alter or changes the rights of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, amend the articles of incorporation, create any other class of stock ranking senior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, increase the authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, or liquidate or dissolve the Company. Beginning 180 days from issuance, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock at a price based on 65% of the average of the two lowest trading prices during the 15 days prior to conversion. The Company may redeem the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock during the first 180 days from issuance, subject to early redemption penalties of up to 25%. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock must be redeemed by the Company 12 months following issuance if not previously redeemed or converted. Based on the terms of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company determined that the preferred stock is mandatorily redeemable and will be accounted for as a liability under ASC 480.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company entered into purchase agreements for the sale of 212,500 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock with 1800 Diagonal Lending, LLC, with $11,250 of proceeds being kept by the lender for legal fees, resulting in cash proceeds of $201,250.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company redeemed the Preferred B shares and paid to the holder a total of $270,549 which included the stated value of $212,500, $6,190 in accrued dividends and the early redemption premium of $51,859.

 

Common shares

 

The Company has authorized 950,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001, and as of September 30, 2023 has issued 390,687,459 shares of common stock. All of the common shares have the same voting rights and liquidation preferences.

 

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with a previous note holder for settlement of outstanding claims of a note payable that had been paid in full previously. Per the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock, and as a result the Company recorded a loss on settlement of $9,975.

 

Stock Options

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company granted to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively, options to purchase up to 77,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.04 per share, exercisable for five years (the “Stock Options”). The Stock Options shall each be a non-qualified option and shall become vested and exercisable upon the Company closing on the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment. The Company used the black-scholes option pricing model to value the options and determined a fair value of $4,814,035. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had not met the contingent vesting requirements, and as such no amounts have been expensed related to these options.

 

On January 25, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated January 31, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment reduces the exercise price of the options from $0.40 per share to $0.06 per share. As a result of the amendment, the Company recorded an additional $1,236,487 of stock-based compensation expense based on the incremental fair value resulting from the change in exercise price.

 

On March 3, 2023, the Company amended stock option grants dated September 12, 2022 to each of Charlie Faulkner and Simon Wajcenberg, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, respectively. The amendment provides for the vesting to be only upon the closing of the purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment, rather than conditioned on an uplisting of the Company’s shares on the NASDAQ Global Market, New York Stock Exchange, or another equivalent market. No additional expense incurred as a result of the amendment as it was determined there was no change to any of the inputs in the black-scholes option pricing model.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company has $22,529,707 of value remaining to be expensed based upon completions of milestones, of which $21,679,711 is contingently subject to expense recognition based on the timing of when the Company is able to close on a purchase of at least $15 million of crypto mining equipment as describe above, and $0 of remaining amortization to expensed pursuant to the vesting terms.

NOTE 7 – Notes Payable and Convertible Notes Payable

 

Notes Payable

 

Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company acquired outstanding note payables in the amount of $35,000. These loans were advanced as due on demand and no communication has been received from the original lenders.

 

In April 2023, the Company utilized an existing marginal lending facility with SFOX, a digital assets broker. The marginal lending facility allows the Company to borrow funds up to a maximum aggregate amount of $50,000 to finance its investment activities in digital assets. The terms of the marginal lending facility include an interest rate on the borrowed funds of 11% and the maximum borrowing period under the facility is 28 days, the facility can be rolled over provided there is sufficient collateral. The facility is secured by a pledged collateral of digital assets. The Company is required to maintain a collateral balance equal to 110% of the outstanding principal balance with the lender.

 

As of September 30, 2023 the loan balances and accrued interest are $50,142 and $56,464 of the Company’s cryptocurrency assets are held as restricted by the lender. 

 

Equipment Notes Payable

 

In 2021, the Company entered into multiple financing agreements whereby the company agreed to purchase assets related to its crypto mining operations. The financing agreements required a down payments in the aggregate of $600,408 and 24 equal monthly payments. The Company used a 15% discount rate to determine the net present value of the loan value in the aggregate of $2,441,591. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the company made payments of $248,184 and $1,366,860, respectively, of which $40,032 and $217,467 was recorded as interest expense.

 

On July 11, 2022, the Company terminated its agreements with the vendor for the financed equipment described above. As of September 30, 2023, and through the date of this filing, no agreement or communication from the vendor has been received confirming the terms of the termination, and therefore the Company has maintained these balances in equipment notes payable on the Company's balance sheet. The balance of the loans as of September 30, 2023 is $1,179,972.

April 20, 2023 Promissory Notes

 

On April 11, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement effective April 20, 2023 with 1800 Diagonal Lending LLC, an accredited investor, pursuant to which the Company sold the investor an unsecured promissory note in the principal amount of $60,760 (the “April Promissory Note”). The Company received net proceeds of $50,000 in consideration of issuance of the April Promissory Note after original issue discount of $6,510 and legal fees of $4,250. The aggregate debt discount of $10,760 is being amortized to interest expense over the respective term of the note.

Legal Contingencies

 

On February 8, 2022, the Company was notified of a potential lawsuit related to the termination of our Advisory Panel Membership agreement with Taylor Black Wealth, Ltd. (“Taylor”). The Company engaged Taylor for assistance with capital raises and was to be partially compensated with stock options, subject to vesting. Taylor claims that the Company terminated the agreement unlawfully and therefore are still entitled to the remaining unvested options which the Company believes to be cancelled. The total number of stock options being contested is 137,473. No additional communication has been received related to the claims from Taylor.

Summary of significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Sep. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.

 

Principals of consolidation

Principals of consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Edgemode, Inc., the accounts of its 100% owned subsidiaries, EdgeMode and Edgemode Mine Co UK Limited. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

 

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price) and such principles also establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value using the following definitions (from highest to lowest priority):

 

  · Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
     
  · Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
     
  · Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques requiring inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued using level 1, level 2, or level 3 inputs as of September 30, 2023.

 

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company has entered into digital asset mining pools by executing contracts, as amended from time to time, with the mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time by either party and the Company’s enforceable right to compensation only begins when the Company provides computing power to the mining pool operator. In exchange for providing computing power, the Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator receives (less digital asset transaction fees to the mining pool operator which are recorded as a component of cost of revenues), for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The terms of the agreement provides that neither party can dispute settlement terms after thirty-five days following settlement. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm.

 

Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of providing such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s contracts with mining pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is noncash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value on the date received, which is not materially different than the fair value at contract inception or the time the Company has earned the award from the pools. The consideration is all variable. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the mining pool operator successfully places a block (by being the first to solve an algorithm) and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

 

Fair value of the cryptocurrency award received is determined using the quoted price of the related cryptocurrency at the time of receipt. There is currently no specific definitive guidance under GAAP or alternative accounting framework for the accounting for cryptocurrencies recognized as revenue or held, and management has exercised significant judgment in determining the appropriate accounting treatment. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the FASB, the Company may be required to change its policies, which could have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results from operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 2018-07 (ASC 2018-07). All transactions in which the consideration provided in exchange for the purchase of goods or services consists of the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.

 

The Company accounts for equity-based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company has capitalized qualified direct costs related to its efforts to raise capital through a sale of its common stock in a private offering. Deferred offering costs will be deferred until the completion of the private offering, at which time they will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of the offering proceeds. If the Company terminates the planned offering or there is a significant delay, all of the deferred offering costs will be immediately written off to operating expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of significant delays, $264,706 of deferred offering costs were expensed. No amounts of deferred offering costs are capitalized as of September 30, 2023.

 

Long-Lived Assets – Cryptocurrencies

Long-Lived Assets – Cryptocurrencies

 

We account for our cryptocurrencies, intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, and ASC Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Our cryptocurrencies are deemed to have an indefinite useful life; therefore amounts are not amortized, but rather are assessed for impairment as further discussed in our impairment policy. Under ASC Subtopic 350-30 any intangible asset with a useful life is required to be amortized over that life and the useful life is to be evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
