Executive Summary
BONA: REVOLUTIONARY INVESTMENT PLATFORM BONA offers to connect multiple industries under one efficient, transparent and profitable ecosystem through Ethereum.
For Investors and Consumers, BONA allows users the ability to invest, purchase, sell, exchange and evaluate products, services, and/or projects seamlessly in one application.
For Project Owners, BONA enables them to build their projects on a decentralized environment where they can create, evaluate, and continuously improve their ideas.
The Goal Our mission is to provide the best ecosystem on decentralized investment platforms for Blockchain applications in the world. Connecting Investors and Project Owners in a single, unified platform, with the least amount of risks.
Using BONA, Project Owners can connect in the ecosystem to produce a profitable eco-decentralized investment cluster for commercial applications. These applications will be designed after the underlying technology architecture of Ethereum in the form of shared technologies, communities, and transactions through the BONA Token. With this ecosystem, investment opportunities are provided through a seamless, transparent and accessible platform.
The BONA Ecosystem The ecosystem of the BONA platform is transaction-generated by ecological partners or controlled by users with the support of project data, reducing the risks of project investment in the initial stage and increases economic benefits and profits.
BONA enables all stakeholders of projects to effectively share data in the platform, allowing all participants to receive fair rewards and services.
At the heart of the ecosystem are its two major components: The Super BONA App and the
BONA Token.
BONA TOKEN PAGE 3
In the platform where these become accessible, the Super BONA App carries the full features and capabilities to connect both the consumers and diverse industries under a safe, secure and decentralized marketplace without borders. Whereas, the BONA Token is unit of value in the Super BONA App.

Industry
Focus Markets and Problems
The Super BONA app will allow its platform to address some of the problems in the following target industries:
Industry Description Problem BONA Solution
Real Estate Industry The real estate and
construction sector are
two of the largest
industries, spending
nearly $10 trillion a
year on construction
products and services.
Investors who invest in
early constructions
projects rely on trust in
the construction
companies or real
estate projects, but
most companies
intend to remain vague
with regards to some
details, which creates
huge riks for investors
and limits their
willingness to invest in
real estate projects.
Using blockchain and
smart contracts,
companies provide full
transparency on real
estate projects,
transactions, and
roadmap/planning.
Foreign Exchange
Market
The Federal Open
Market Committee
(FOMC) started that
FOMC members must
vote and reach a
consensus that the
target interest rate
range of federal funds
is kept between 1.75%
- 2%. Based on data
measured every week,
it is estimated that it
will eventually gather
real GDP data at the
end of the season.
Now, the current GDP
growth in the United
States is between 2%
and 3%.
First, the target range
maintaining the interest
rate of the fund is
unreasonable;
secondly, when the
national bond position
on the federal
reserve’s balance
sheet is maintained to
rise through extension,
the foreign exchange
of the fund is not
determined by
individuals (investors),
which becomes very
important to the issue
of the return on
investment.
To build a smart
contract with a
transparent and
decentralized database
which will be managed
and tracked by
professional
investment managers.
With the support of
smart contracts, the
investment interest
rate will be maximized.
BONA TOKEN PAGE 5
Industry Description Problem BONA Solution
Charity and Non-
Profit Organization
According to a study
by CAF (Charities Aid
Foundation), charitable
donations account for
1% of the world’s total
GDP and are worth
733 billion US dollars.
While charities are
done with good
intentions, it faces a
serious lack of
transparency. After the
organization has raised
money, it will publicly
report its financial
budget, which will
allow more people to
donate money and
increase the amount of
money donated. When
transferring money to
charitable
organizations, donors
must fully trust the
organizations they
donate. When the
organization transfers
money to the affected
areas (or individuals),
the issue of
transparency becomes
urgent, especially if
some of those
resources become
misplaced or missing.
To build a reliable and
decentralized
infrastructure so that
the expenditures of the
funds raised can be
tracked. The App will
enforce a tracking
system to be
implemented
throughout the
network. The money
will be transferred to
smart contracts, which
are transparent and
open to the public, so
that donor or charities
do not have to suspect
each other.

Industry Description Problem BONA Solution
Online Payment
Industry
Experts predict that
the market capacity of
online products and
services will reach 4.5
trillion US dollars by
2021, some of which
will be in the form of
peer-to-peer
transactions. Reports
point out that most
people will go
shopping online.
Traders lack
confidence in each
other, the party
supplying the services
cannot ensure that the
other party will pay the
money after receiving
the services while
customers lack
confidence in the
business because they
cannot ensure that the
other party will provide
the services once they
make payment, which
renders it necessary to
entrust a third-party
group authorized by
the government. In
most cases, this
system causes a lot of
inconveniences, and
will be expensive and
require special
knowledge or
certification.
The situation can be
complicated by the
communication across
the border because
one party must trust
the arbiter of another
country. In some
cases, the party loses
confidence in the
independent arbiter of
one country, which
seriously affects the
trading relationship
and the execution of
contracts.
Use smart contracts
for transactions, and
then confirm the
implementation of
transactions through
the decentralized
database. It can write
all the different logic
and conditions giving
ease and trust
between both parties.
If one party transfers
money to the smart
contract, it will
automatically record
the transaction on the
decentralized
database, which will
control the flow of
money of the project
and divide it according
to milestones.

Industry Description Problem BONA Solution
Online Products Products purchased
online are based on
trust.
When ordering goods
online, the buyer has
no choice but to trust
the seller with regards
to the delivery of the
product and vice
versa.
To build a reliable
decentralized
infrastructure. From
then on, the buyer
does not have to
distrust the seller and
the seller does not
need to worry about
payment as transaction
conducted through the
BONA platform will
guarantee legitimacy.
Buyers will also be
able to use credit cards
to automatically
convert fiat to BONA
Tokens upon buying
products or services on
the app. Suppliers and
sellers in the BONA
ecosystem also
reserve the right to
choose which
encrypted currency
they prefer and the
payment option they
desire.

Our Response to Investor Challenges
Losses Due to Failed projects BONA mitigates risks and ensures that funds are released, in phases according to the project roadmap, which effectively eradicates fraudulent projects from the platform and encourage project parties to strictly implement their plan. BONA may also discontinue a project upon assessment of its risk factors and return or transfer funds as deemed by community voting.
Token Value Drops When Launched in Exchange The BONA platform will have strict controls in allowing early investors to sell out tokens after entering an exchange. This will ensure that the value will not drop and the rights of other investors of the project will be guaranteed. Market value for each BONA token is no less than $ 0.40.
Investors Do Not Have Tools to
Evaluate Project Viability BONA application market will have standardized information structure to make it easy for investors to compare between project descriptions. Investors will be able to see ratings provided for by the community. And additionally, they will be updated on the project’s implementation progress compared to its roadmap, and the investors will be informed at each stage.
Difficulty In Purchasing Project Tokens With BONA, the users will be able to purchase tokens directly by using credit cards or bank transfer. The platform also provides an exchange for internal use, to guarantee the liquidity of all project tokens on the platform. Investors only need to register and undergo a one-time KYC process.

Our Response to Consumer Challenges
Compromised Security/Privacy BONA prevents unauthorized access to your private information by giving you a private and public key.
Erroneous Transactions BONA no longer requires banks or other intermediaries with secure cyber ledgers called Smart Contracts.
Accessibility BONA gives them access to multiple services from different industries under one Super App.
Our Response to Project Owner Challenges
Steep Expenses Launching A Project BONA helps Project Owners be able to receive funding without the expensive upfront costs and platform commissions. Instead, an agreed amount of BONA tokens shall be locked in as a project commission and security deposit.
Testing Project Ideas BONA helps shorten the test cycle of projects and gives the Project Owners the ability to evaluate its feasibility through feedbacks from our large number of community members.
Brand Awareness Difficulty Bona assists of putting products, services or the brand itself to a ready market with BONA consumers.

BONA Blockchain Protocol (BBP)
Investors’ voting for the
issuance of project funds
Investor Funding DAO Project
Fund
The Blockchain Protocol’s primary purpose is to ensure the security of the investor’s funds and compel the project owner to strictly implement its project plan. The protocol are based on the following conditional workflow:
1. Funds invested in the BONA platform will not be released to the Project Ownerimmediately. It will be stored in a smart contract (in the monetary storage funds).
2. Project Plan and a specific amount of funds to be raised per stage are required before a Project Owner is allowed to do public sales.
3. Investors are allowed to retrieve their funds at the end of each stage.
BBP Algorithm and Platform Operation
STEP DESCRIPTION
1 Project Owner registers in the BONA platform to get an account number, along with the
submission of necessary project and sales information.
2 Investors uses BONA platform to search for projects that match their requirements and
standards.
3 Investors may conduct peer evaluation through the BONA community.
4 After careful consideration, the investor enters into an agreement using a smart
contract.
5 Middleman will conduct due diligence
6 When all above conditions are met, the smart contract initiates the payment in
encrypted currency.
7 The smart contract monitors the payment and records payment behaviors in the BONA
platform until it satisfies all conditions for transfer of ownership.
BONA TOKEN PAGE 14
How Will the BBP Algorithm Work?
Protection from Fraud and Failed Projects. Investors can now save for up to 90% of their investment funds from a failed project. As the protocol prevents fraudulent projects from immediately receiving funds, BONA becomes a safe and nurturing environment for legitimate investments.
Project Investment Insurance As an additional layer of protection, BONA will provide platform project investment insurance at an identified stage of the project.
Proposed BONA Database
A database containing a list of credible contacts such as lawyers, notaries, financial investment advisors and other individuals of good credibility shall be maintained to ensure the quality and relevance of the smart contracts based on existing legal standards.
Smart Contract Creation
The BONA database cost will depend on the number of databases determined in the Smart Contract. The more database, the higher total operating fees. The cost will be paid for using BONA Tokens only.
The leverage of BONA in using databases is the ability to challenge projects through a consensus voting by a qualified list of professionals. Giving our contracts more integrity and ensuring the safety of all investors using the platform.
