Welcome to the Whitepaper

Znow Flakz Token (ZNOW) & The ZNOW Ecosystem

Introduction

The Znow Flakz Token (ZNOW) is a utility token designed to support a revolutionary ecosystem that combines environmental sustainability, innovative technology, and community connectivity. Our vision is to leverage blockchain technology to empower individuals, communities, and industries with tools that address critical issues such as water scarcity, droughts, and internet connectivity, while fostering environmental awareness and social impact.

This whitepaper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the ZNOW Ecosystem, its core utilities, and the broader societal benefits it seeks to achieve. Importantly, we will clarify how ZNOW is structured to comply with U.S. securities laws, emphasizing its utility nature rather than being classified as a security.

1. Background and Motivation

Water scarcity and droughts are escalating global concerns, impacting agriculture, ecosystems, and communities. Similarly, reliable internet access remains a challenge in many areas, hindering economic and educational opportunities. The ZNOW ecosystem aims to address these issues innovatively through blockchain-powered solutions.

Our approach involves the development of NFTs which will represent the Znow Flakz Vision — each symbolizing a unique landscape — and smart infrastructure that enables snow production and expanded internet connectivity. These utilities are designed to provide tangible benefits without creating investment opportunities that could be classified as securities.

2. The Znow Flakz Token (ZNOW): Utility and Functionality

ZNOW is a utility token that facilitates access to and participation in the ZNOW ecosystem. It is structured to comply with U.S. regulations by serving as a functional tool rather than an investment vehicle or security. Its primary utilities are as follows:

2.1 Snowflake NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens)

• Representation of Unique Landscapes: Each NFT symbolizes a distinct artificial landscape, mimicking snow-covered environments.
• Environmental Utility: NFTs are designed to show and share the Znow Flakz Token's vision through digital art and serve as access points to a simulated snow production system.
• Potential Real-World Impact: These landscapes could be integrated with actual snow-making technology.

2.2 Snow Production System

• Innovative Snowmaking Technology: Uses insulated air/water tanks, air/water lines, and artificial landscaping.
• Environmental Benefits: Aids in drought relief and ecological balance.

2.3 Mesh Wi-Fi Network

3.3 Fee Wallet Purpose

Fee Wallet Explained: The tokens collected by the fee wallet are allocated to support ongoing project development, enhance Znow Flakz Token's underlying technologies, and fund future community-driven events and experiences. These resources help ensure the long-term sustainability and innovation of the ecosystem, without representing any form of profit-sharing or financial return. The fee is 1/2 of a Percent and/or [0.5%] per transaction.

3.4 ***Liquidity Release Update*** Token Allowance, Token Supply, & Token Availability ( MUST READ )

Due to an unexpected technical constraint during the initial launch of the ZNOW/ETH liquidity pool, we were unable to inject the full 6 billion ZNOW tokens into Uniswap at once as originally planned. As a result, ZNOW tokens and corresponding ETH had to be removed from Uniswap's V3 Pools and re-added at the same price into Uniswap's V2 pools to prevent further errors in the future. We will continue adding to the liquidity pools, while also creating other pairs in carefully monitored stages. Please do not let this correction make you think there was a negative course of action taken. It was done intentionally to protect our community and prevent future errors from happening in the Uniswap V3 pool creation, that could have later caused major problems in our development. The transactions that originally worked correctly in the test net phases ended up not working 100% correctly post deployment, which we have come to find out. If there is a will there is a way. We found the problem and we created a solution. Currently all Uniswap V2 pools are working properly, in-sync, and the problems have all been resolved.

Our goal is to complete the full liquidity injection by Day 60 post-launch. However, if market conditions or protocol limitations prevent full deployment by that time, we will proceed with progressive liquidity additions in multiple rounds to preserve price stability, fairness, and decentralization.

This measured release does not impact on the token’s total supply, or core functionality, and all transactions will remain transparent on the Ethereum blockchain. Updates on liquidity staging will be shared on our website and social media channels.

Once each pool receives the max amount of liquidity and ZNOW tokens that we have set available for the public, we will then lock liquidity in 3-to-6-month stages to help ZNOW build the trust it deserves.

7. Conclusion and Vision

The Znow Flakz Token and ZNOW Ecosystem are pioneering efforts that blend environmental sustainability, technological innovation, and community empowerment. Our mission is to make lasting change by addressing water shortages, connectivity issues, and climate awareness through transparent, utility-focused design.

Znow Flakz Token (ZNOW) is a utility-driven cryptocurrency developed by the Znow Flakz Team, based in the United States of America. Officially launched on May 16th, 2025, the token was created to power a unique ecosystem of real-life-like snowflake NFTs, seasonal landscapes, and immersive Web3 experiences. ZNOW is built on the Ethereum blockchain and operates as an ERC-20 token, with a Max Supply of 25 Billion tokens, and a Total Circulating Supply of 7.5 Billion tokens.

The project integrates digital art, environmental themes, and interactive features into a transparent token economy. Its core purpose is to facilitate access to collectible snowflake-themed NFTs, which represent animated or still scenes modeled after real winter landscapes. These NFTs are designed to serve as visual experiences, using digital art, and limited-edition assets across desktop, mobile, and television screens.

At launch, 12.5 billion ZNOW tokens were released into circulation. The remaining 12.5 billion are scheduled to be released in two equal phases via smart contract—at 30-days and 60-days post-launch—ensuring a gradual and verifiable distribution. A 0.5% transaction fee is applied to all transfers and swaps, which helps support ecosystem stability. The smart contract also includes a wallet cap and built-in governance, giving token holders the ability to vote on proposals made by the Znow Flakz Team. The ZNOW project is designed with long-term scalability in mind. Beyond NFTs, the token’s roadmap includes seasonal integrations, immersive snowflake scenes, and potential real-world event activations—such as sponsored snowfall experiences or timed environmental displays.

The team has also outlined a commitment to supporting governance-based community input through ongoing proposals and transparent development updates. Transparency is a core principle of the Znow Flakz Team. All token activity, contract details, and phase releases are verifiable on-chain, and the team has pledged to maintain ongoing communication through its official website, social media, and partner platforms. Major updates, liquidity decisions, and project expansions are disclosed directly to the public in a timely and accountable manner. ZNOW is tradeable on decentralized exchanges such as Uniswap, with all trading data publicly accessible. The project does not operate as a marketplace itself but instead integrates with established platforms to support NFT sales and user accessibility. Znow Flakz Token stands apart through its focus on seasonal aesthetics, Web3 engagement, and cross-platform digital artistry. By merging Ethereum-based token mechanics with high-quality snowflake-themed assets and interactive visuals, the project offers a fresh use case for utility tokens in the NFT and entertainment sectors. Its blend of transparency, real-life inspiration, and blockchain governance provides users with both visual enjoyment and decentralized participation.

8. Znow Flakz Token Compliance Position – FinCEN & MSB Status

Znow Flakz Token (ZNOW) operates as a non-custodial, utility-only token on the Ethereum blockchain. The project does not accept, hold, or transmit fiat or digital currency on behalf of users. All token interactions occur directly through smart contracts or user-managed wallets (e.g., MetaMask), with no intermediary access or control by the Znow Flakz team. The platform provides educational content and access instructions but does not function as a money transmitter, exchange, or financial custodian. As such, based on current FinCEN guidance and the nature of the token’s utility use case, Znow Flakz Token is not classified as a Money Services Business (MSB) and is not required to register as a money transmitter at either the federal or Maryland state level. This conclusion is subject to ongoing review in consultation with legal counsel.
