Digital Shopping Coin (DSC) Minting Strategy Update
It has come to our attention that minting DSC at an initial valuation of USD 50,000 may be too expensive, due to the significant liquidity requirements that must be met before a newly minted cryptocurrency can be listed on crypto exchanges.
Accordingly, we plan to first establish members' verified DSP balances as of 31 March 2026, following a system audit conducted by a competent and independent audit firm, and to confirm their value at a rate of USD 50,000. DSPs earned from April 2026 to June 2026 will be valued at USD 1,000. Thereafter, the DSP value will be USD 200 until DSC is listed at the initial price of USD 0.01. These balances will be formally recognized, retained on record, and settled through installment payments until each member's full verified balance has been paid.
The DSP prelaunch price will remain at USD 1 per DSP. Its value will be determined in accordance with the information outlined above.
We will then mint an initial batch of, say, 20 million DSC and offer them for sale at the initial price of USD 0.01 per DSC, to ensure that sufficient liquidity is available to meet the listing requirements of crypto exchanges. We will determine how many units we can afford to mint, based on the liquidity requirements for exchange listing, at an initial price of $0.01, when we are ready to proceed with minting.
Under this approach, the DSC minting contract will include an inflation clause, allowing additional DSC to be minted in the future. From the initial minting and each subsequent minting, DSC will be allocated to verified DSP holders in the form of DSP credits on a pro rata basis, in accordance with their verified balances, until the full verified value of all DSP holdings has been completely allocated.
Cashback Benefit for DSP Purchasers
As an additional benefit, members who can provide proof of payment for their purchased DSP will receive a cashback of Digital Shopping Coin (DSC) equivalent to the USD amount they paid to acquire those DSP. This will enable them to sell the DSC on crypto exchanges and recover the funds used to purchase their DSP, while retaining ownership of their purchased DSP.
Given that the volume of purchased DSP is expected to be relatively small and the initial price of DSC will be only a few cents, any selling pressure resulting from this bonus allocation is unlikely to have a material impact on the market price of DSC. Instead, participants who choose to sell their DSCs below the market value will end up losing their money used to purchase DSPs.
The DSM business model is designed to ensure steady and sustained demand for DSC, and as such, any short-term selling pressure is expected to be efficiently absorbed by the market.
Understanding DSP Value Protection
For those who wonder their value embedded in their DSPs held will be diluted if the DSP value will be reduced from $50,000 to $0.01, look at this example.
Assume you spent a total of $5,000 before April 2026 and received 10,000 DSPs. Each DSP is locked at a value of $50,000, meaning your 10,000 DSPs are locked at a total value of $500 million.
Upon listing DSC on a crypto exchange at an initial price of $0.01, you would receive a DSC cashback worth $5,000, which equals 500,000 DSCs, calculated as $5,000 divided by $0.01. This allows you to recoup the money you spent purchasing DSPs. After that, DSPs are allocated to you from the minted DSCs on a pro rata basis.
Assume that 50 million DSPs are allocated from the initial mint, and that the total DSPs held by members before the DSC listing is 2 million. Your allocation ratio would be 10,000 divided by 2,000,000, multiplied by 50,000,000, which equals 250,000 DSPs. At the initial price of $0.01, your allocated 250,000 DSPs would be worth $2,500.
We would then deduct the allocated $2,500 from your locked value of $500 million, leaving a balance of $499,997,500 to be recouped from future DSC mintings in accordance with the DSC inflationary minting clause.
Since we expect the value of DSC to rise on exchanges as more people join to access exclusive discounts, your allocated 250,000 DSPs would also increase in value in line with the market price of DSC. However, your outstanding locked balance of $499,997,500 would remain unchanged. It would continue to be recouped from each subsequent minting until the full outstanding amount is repaid.
The same principle applies to your 500,000 DSC cashback. If you do not sell the DSC immediately after receiving it, its value would increase in line with the market price of DSC.
Let us assume that, at the next minting, 50,000 DSCs are allocated to you at the prevailing DSC price of $2.50. This would make your allocation worth $125,000.
The $125,000 allocation will then be deducted from your outstanding locked balance of $499,997,500, resulting in a new outstanding balance of $499,872,500, which will be recouped through subsequent reminting of DSCs.
Therefore, there is nothing to lose regardless of how low the initial DSC price may be. You receive DSC cashback equivalent to the amount you spent purchasing DSPs, you receive additional DSP allocations, and the value of your purchased DSPs remains locked to be recouped gradually from the first minting and from each subsequent minting under the inflationary clause.
In fact, a lower initial price may attract crypto traders and investors to purchase DSC, not for converting them into DSPs, but for holding them in anticipation of price appreciation. Their purchases would provide DSM with the liquidity needed to pay suppliers and DMEs in fiat currencies, allowing preordered deals to be fulfilled.
An Initiative To Eradicate Poverty Worldwide
In our endeavor to eradicate global poverty, Shafi has decided to give 10% of his DSM shares to a charitable organization that will be federally incorporated in Ontario, Canada whose main objective will be to eradicate poverty worldwide.
The organization will mint its cryptocurrency dedicated to serving the poor worldwide. Additionally, it will own the Digital Shopping Coins, which will be injected into the DSM as the charitable organization's contribution towards the capital needed to develop and operate the DSM.
The cryptocurrencies that the charitable organization will mint will not be tradeable on the crypto exchanges but will be used exclusively for donations to individuals and institutions eligible for donations as per the charitable organization's policy.
DSM will accept the charitable organization's cryptocurrency. The charitable organization will be depositing the cryptocurrencies into the DSM wallets of the beneficiaries, and the beneficiaries will only be able to spend the donations as specified by the charitable organization. Once the cryptocurrencies are deposited into DSM wallets, they are automatically converted to Kaluta Donation Points (KDPs), which are donation vouchers, not cryptocurrencies. The value of the KDP will be pegged to the value of DSP on a 1:1 ratio.
The KDP beneficiaries will be restricted to purchasing specified products and services only, as per the donation agreement. This way, donations will have a greater impact on serving the targeted audience, ensuring that charity organizations cannot divert funds elsewhere but to the intended beneficiaries.
We will create a website for the charitable organization where, inter alia, donatable cases will be shared for members to verify and vote so that the charitable organization can ensure its donations make the intended impact to eradicate poverty in the world.
The good news for our potential Founding Members is that you will be entrusted with the KDPs at twice the amount of your Founding Membership Points (FMPs) held at the end of the Founding Membership opportunities period, when the charitable organization's cryptocurrencies are minted for the first time. The KDPs will be deposited in your special DSP wallet exclusively for donations. You will use your KDPs for donations to fund your preferred charitable activities.
The charitable organization's cryptocurrency will be inflationary, and you will be rewarded with the KDPs equivalent to your FMP held at the end of the Founding Membership opportunities period whenever the charitable organization's cryptocurrency is re-minted as per its inflationary clause.
This arrangement will have a larger impact on global poverty eradication and more benefits for our Founding Members as their statuses in their communities will be significantly uplifted by their charity donations. This will help them refer many people from their communities to join DSM, thus benefiting from their Founding Member status and earning affiliate commissions.
Needless to say, your charitable donations will outlive you and keep growing in value as the cryptocurrency is re-minted according to its inflationary clause. This is a golden opportunity for the would-be DSM Founding Members to leave a legacy that will endure perpetually.
As I have explained several times when amplifying our Tokenomics, we have a golden business model that will not affect the demand for DSPs regardless of their quantity in circulation and price. Therefore, the charitable organization's cryptocurrencies that will be converted to KDPs so that they can be redeemed for products and services on DSM will not affect the value of DSP. It will increase DSP value even more because the empowerment of poor people to buy products and services from DSM will increase the demand for deals sold on DSM tremendously, which will attract more suppliers to partner with us, as well as make DSM get moral and material support from governments worldwide to help them eradicate poverty in their countries.
We will share more details at the appropriate time.
