The document summarizes the key issues with current decentralized launch platforms and provides an overview of a new proposed platform called Lithium Ventures. The main points are:
1) Current platforms focus on single protocols and lack diversification, resulting in demand fluctuations. They also allow scam projects to launch due to lack of vetting.
2) Lithium Ventures aims to address these issues through an incubator program that provides seed funding and support services to projects. It will also have a diversified launchpad for launching projects across multiple chains.
3) The platform has an native token, social following, and an incubation fund of $330,000 so far to support upcoming launches. It aims to launch 3

2. Main players focus on
decentralisation - Enabling bad
actors to IDO and launch scam
projects. These misallocate
resources and hurt investors.
Current launchpads focus on
single protocols which results in
demand fluctuations and lack of
diversification.
Founders need to know the tips
and tricks for a successful IDO, to
avoid the ubiquitous pump and
dump

4. Massive Value Add
to Founders
Seed Fund: Incubator fund raised from our community to
support incubated projects which are invested in
pre-ICO to enable them to build out product,
marketing and community.
Incubator: Incubated companies receive seed capital
alongside a host of value-add services such as:
- marketing strategies
- technical support
- product development
- UI expertise, KYC checks and code
auditing
- Brand development
Launchpad: Vetted and carefully selected blockchain projects IDO
through our launchpad. Currently on BSC, Polygon is
in development with Cardano planned post Alonso.
Non - lottery airdrops back to our community of
token holders shares value and builds brand loyalty.

Building Launching Vetting Investment Value Add
Initially focused on BSC,
Polygon and Cardano.
We’re aiming for 3-4
launches per month by
October 2021
All projects are vetted,
founders are KYC’ed to
avoid scams on our
platform and minimise the
risk to our investors
Investors who hold our
native token get priority
access to these projects,
with 1% of launched
project’s supply being
airdropped to our own
token holders
For incubated companies,
this offers a large value
add - giving them capital
pre IDO to spend on
marketing and
development and
underpins a successful
launch
7. Incubator
As part of our launchpad offering, we
encourage IDOs to come via our
Incubator.
This acts as a value add over competitors and involves
seed investments at favorable Mcaps prior to launch.
Large focus on building partnerships with value added
services (see full partner list) including:
Marketing
Support
Community
Growth
Technical
Support
Product
Development
UI
Expertise
KYC Checks
Code
Auditing
BETA Testing
Groups
Brand
Positioning
Benefits hugely from network effects - the more
companies we can put through our incubators, the
easier it is to generate partners, build the ecosystem
and support incubated companies
Large focus on building partnerships with value
added services (see full partner list) including
marketing support, community growth, technical
support, product development, UI expertise, KYC
checks, code auditing, BETA testing groups, and
brand positioning

Investment
As part of this service, we make seed investments
pre-IDO at off-market prices (circa 20-30% under
market value) out of the incubator fund
8. Token VC Fund
High Scalability
Retained Earning
Removes the need for companies to complete large ‘private and
whitelist sales’. This gives us an edge upon IDO acting as the
only avenue to invest into the projects via our launchpad or
funds.
Aiming for 5-10x within 12
months (Market Dependent)
with 20% performance fee
Extremely scalable - potential to
roll out these funds on a
quarterly rolling basis
Retained earning from
performance fee (estimated
$264,000 - $594,000)
Aims
Fund sits behind our incubator and launchpad - offering Seed
style deals pre-IDO. The fund raised $330,000 via our
community and participation requires holding 600,000 $EBSC
tokens.
For incubated companies, this offers a large value add.
Giving them capital pre IDO to spend on marketing and
development and underpins a successful launch. For us, it
gives massive optionality for future earnings with a VC
model with huge potential upside.
10. Roll out a large marketing and PR campaign - signed
with various agencies with massive reach to be rolled
out post token - migration.
Higher Level Objectives
Focus on IDO deal flow to bring new investors and
capital into the Lithium Ecosystem. We are aiming for
3-4 high quality launches per month by Q4 2021
Partner with influential person in the crypto space to join in
advisory / marketing role. Currently in talks and aiming to
close by mid-October 2021.
When we rebranded, our token name has stayed the
same (EBSC). We are currently working to bridge into a
new contract to avoid any confusion when new investors
visit the site. This will be completed by November 2021.

11. Roadmap
Launching in April, we hit a market cap
of 20m shortly after. Following the
market-wide sell-off, we have
maintained a diversified investor base
(over 10.5k holders) and active
community
Product Development
We partnered with a well-known
agency to design and build our
launchpad alongside in-house
capabilities.
Raised $330 for token/VC fund. This
capital sits behind the projects we
launch via our incubator and launchpad
and exceeded our initial 250k target
Successful first IDO completed for
VICEWRLD. We successfully
oversubscribed the allocation by 250%
- proving our model works for founders
and investors.
Having already signed a deal to launch a
project on Polygon, we are adding
cross-chain capabilities ahead of their
launch.
Aim to launch 3-4 projects per month
which will bring in large capital, new
investors and higher token price
Tokenized seed fund
Once full launchpad has been rolled-out, we
look to begin tokenizing the fund platform that
sits behind the incubator. This technology can
be initially used for funds with many other use
cases
