I’ve been known in the community as, “the breadcrumb detective”. As such, I gained a Twitter following by doing deep dives on the technology and breadcrumbs, including the following subjects: • Tech ( https://twitter.com/ParabolicHBAR/status/1456738106825134089?s=20 ) • Tokenomics ( https://twitter.com/ParabolicHBAR/status/1459325932301336576? s=20 ) Over the past year, I’ve become an investor (aka speculator) in Hedera Hashgraph, but also a community activist. I’ve grown to love the culture and subculture within the space. You can often find me contributing in #ClubHBAR ( https://discord.gg/club-hbar ) and #HBARunderground ( https://discord.gg/sRv4reK9 ). We chose to launch, “Hashcrabs” on Hedera because HBAR is culturally known in the community by many, especially in #ClubHBAR, as the “crab coin” (more on that later...). Additionally, we wanted to launch our first NFT project that was both secure, fast, a ff ordable, easy-to-use, & ecofriendly. Hedera checks all those boxes, plus more. If you are new to Hedera, I urge you to check out my “tech” & “tokenomics” threads listed above. This project aims to be evolutionary in nature. Meaning, it will begin in an unpolished form, with 2D hashcrabs that undergo abstract variations. Followed by metamorphosis into 3D hashcrabs that aim to be collectibles. These 3D hashcrabs can be interacted with by toggling them within the Xact Wallet. As such, the collector can examine all 360 degrees of each collectible. Afterwards, the crabs will undergo future evolutionary changes into hashcrab robots. The 3D hashcrab robots will be bionic crabs. They will be 3D and similar in functionality to the previous 3D models. Afterwards, the project will reach its ultimate evolution, which is 4D hashcrabs. This means the hashcrabs will be 3D, but animated (...think GIF format). As such, these crabs will be animated and perform di ff erent movements within your wallet. We hope that you take a look at our project and decide to take a hashcrab that resonates with you home. Thank you for your interest and support. Hashcrabs White Paper, Page 3 What is Hashcrabs? In 2021, the price of HBAR had a few significant price jumps. However, the majority of the time, the price of HBAR was relatively stable and predictable. As such, many HBAR holders became frustrated and coined HBAR the “crab coin” because of its resemblance of a “stable coin”. As such, the term “crabbing” became ubiquitous in the Hedera Hashgraph community. This spurred the creation of “Hashcrabs”, which is an NFT project minted by Xact Wallet on Hedera. Hashcrabs are literal crabs in various forms. Hashcrabs are a collection of unique crabs and their evolutionary progression as the project moves forward. Hashcrabs begins with Generation 0, where all Hashcrabs are in 2D form. Gen 0 is composed of 7 di ff erent types of crabs with various renditions, which all prints are 1/1. Gen 0 is comprised of 39 various 2D prints, which is representative of the 39 governing counsel members of Hedera. Gen 0 begins by revealing the initial Hashcrab in its most pure form, which then progressively becomes more abstract. Once Gen 0 is completed the project transitions to Gen 1, which is the 3D form. Hashcrabs Generation 1 is a 3D venture, where the original 2D Hashcrabs evolve into a 3D form. The 3D Hashcrabs are reminiscent of the 2D characters with slight alterations to make the 3D more refined. Hashcrab Gen 1 will be composed of the original 6 di ff erent crabs, along with special edition crabs, and NFT artist collaboration crabs. Additionally, there will be a rarity scale amongst each crab, which is enumerated in this document. Once Gen 1 is completed the project will evolve to Gen 2, which are 3D robotic crabs. Hashcrabs Generation 2 is a 3D project, where the original 2D hashcrabs undergo metamorphosis into their robotic form. These Hashcrabs have many bionic features, which are all unique to each specific crab. Like the Generation 1 line, Gen 2 will also have many features, which dictate rarity, and will follow the rarity scale, which is defined within this document. Once Gen 2 is completed the project will evolve to Gen 3, which is the ultimate 4D format. Hashcrabs Generation 3 is a 4D line, where the original 2D Hashcrab characters become animated like a GIF. These Hashcrabs will do unique movements that are specific to that character. Further details will be released in future Whitepaper revisions. Our Whitepaper aims to be a living document, where the foundation is unwavering and unchanged, but the details of future Hashcrabs and their development are ongoing as the project evolves. Hashcrabs White Paper, Page 4 Secret Sauce The “secret sauce” to our Hashcrabs begins with the design process. All of our Gen 0 Hashcrabs are hand sketched with graphite. These 2D sketches are then imported to Polarr, which is an artist design application for iOS. In Polarr, the Hashcrabs undergo an abstract transformation, which each design is unique and one-of-a-kind. For 3D transformation, all of our original hand sketches are scanned and uploaded into Substance Painter, where the 3D molding process begins. It is in this stage that the Hashcrab begins to undergo 3D metamorphosis where 2D textures and colors are applied. Once the Substance Painter 3D Hashcrab is created it is then ported to Blender where finishing touches are applied and all the files can be collated and exported into GLB format for NFT minting.

First, our pinnacle Gen 1 line is a 3D hashcrab with 360 degree toggle abilities within app. DISCLAIMER : At this time, this line is not compatible with iOS & viewing in Xact Wallet (see below from Xact). However, this is compatible with Android, MacBook, and PC. However, the 2D/3D stills are compatible for viewing in iOS. Second, our baked & half-baked Gen 1 is a 2D/3D still. Meaning, these 3Ds appear 3D, but do not have toggle ability to view all 360 degree features of the collectible. These are meant to be our a ff ordable, entry-level line, so everyone can a ff ord a Hashcrab. Hashcrabs White Paper, Page 12 Generation 2 (more TBA...) Gen 2 is composed of two 3D types. First, our pinnacle Gen 2 line are 3D hashcrab robots with 360 degree toggle abilities within app. Second, our half-baked Gen 2 line is a 2D/3D still. Meaning, these 3Ds appear 3D, but do not have toggle ability to view all 360 degree features of the collectible. Generation 3 (more TBA...) Gen 3 is composed of 4D hashcrabs, which means they are animated 3D renditions. These hashcrabs will move (...think GIFs, but more engaging) and perform specific, unique movements. We are most excited to bring these to you in the future. Hashcrabs White Paper, Page 13
