Strategic Partnerships & MCT Off-Ramps:

• MetaCert are exploring strategic partnerships that will make it straightforward for users to off-ramp MCT into other currencies, either directly into fiat or through intermediary assets that can be readily exchanged for fiat.

• MetaCert connects verified work, authenticated payments, and measurable value through MCT.

• As more organizations participate, the need for validation increases.

• Increased validation drives demand for MCT.

• Growing demand strengthens both the ecosystem and the token’s long-term utility.

• MCT is not a speculative asset—it is the infrastructure that enables scalable digital trust across the internet.

• The objective is for MCT to be recognized as a legitimate means of compensation for one of the most critical activities on the internet, website validation.

• This function sits at the core of MetaCert’s data model, as partners and their customers grow and succeed, the demand for trusted validation will increase accordingly.

Over Time, Website Owners Will Pay To Have Their Sites Validated

• These payments will be made in fiat currency, which will be automatically converted into MCT.

• The resulting MCT will then be distributed between validators and MetaCert, with MetaCert receiving a smaller share.

• This model establishes an organic and legitimate source of demand for the token.

• The concept itself is not new. For many years, website owners have paid for website identity certificates, and security companies generated billions in revenue from SSL certificates before browsers ultimately removed the green padlock due to its lack of reliability as a trust signal.

What Matters Most Is That MCT Funds Real, Productive Work

• MetaCert compensates individuals in MCT for validating links, supported by a dedicated budget for this purpose.

• This is not speculative activity—it is payment for verifiable, operational work.

• Validators will not be limited to cryptocurrency enthusiasts or users of partner platforms, many will be experienced security professionals with deep backgrounds in threat intelligence and online fraud.

• Crowdsourced validation itself is not a new concept. Platforms such as PhishTank have relied on community-driven investigation of phishing URLs for years, with their data feeding into major browsers including Chrome and Brave.

• Despite these efforts, the internet remains vulnerable, largely due to the limitations of existing models.

• Traditional approaches are slow and susceptible to manipulation.

• Attackers can submit false data, competitors can attempt to have legitimate links incorrectly flagged, and the scope is often narrowly focused on credential-harvesting pages while overlooking malware, downloads, and other forms of abuse.

• MetaCert fundamentally advances this model, delivering a more robust, comprehensive, and resilient approach to link validation.

Why MetaCert’s Validation Model Works

• MetaCert represents the first meaningful advancement in phishing protection in more than two decades.

• Their approach addresses the structural weaknesses that have limited traditional models and introduces safeguards designed for scale, accuracy, and resilience.

• At launch, users will not be able to submit suspicious links, preventing data contamination during the system’s initial phase.

• Validators will only review URLs that have failed authentication somewhere in the world, delivered directly through MetaCert’s API.

• A randomized validation process ensures the system cannot be manipulated through coordinated activity or collusion.

• MetaCert provides validators with specialized tools and contextual insights to support accurate and consistent decision-making.

• When organizations pay for validation, those URLs are surfaced within the community portal, with all payments made in MCT rather than fiat.

• As user-submitted links are introduced, a staking mechanism will be implemented. Validators will be required to stake MCT to discourage spam and manipulation. Upon consensus, validators are compensated and submitters receive their stake back.

• Dispute resolution will also be governed by staking, recognizing that a website’s intent and behaviour can change over time.

• Mackie Mobile has expressed strong interest in enabling its customers to participate in validation, as results will be visible instantly on their devices across all applications.

• Mackie Mobile will ensure that all links relevant to its operations and partners are validated within the MetaCert system.

• Over time, Mackie Mobile’s partners and vendors will pay to have their sites validated, with customers and the broader community compensated for performing the validation work.

• MetaCert’s role is to facilitate this process—democratizing trust and reputation across the web while aligning incentives for all participants.

• This has been MetaCert’s objective since 2018. Alongside their shift from traditional threat detection to a Zero Trust model, it represents the most significant strategic decision the company have made since 2011.

• Link Verifier is the third major innovation MetaCert are proud of.

• No other company has built a service that operates directly within the share menu across applications.

• While others use this interface solely for copying, sharing, or opening links, MetaCert has transformed it into a point of real-time trust verification.
