Note
1 - Business Organization and Nature of Operations
BTCS
Inc. (formerly Bitcoin Shop, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in 2008. In February 2014,
the Company entered the business of hosting an online ecommerce marketplace where consumers could purchase merchandise
using Digital Assets, including bitcoin and is currently focused on blockchain and digital currency ecosystems. In January 2015,
the Company began a rebranding campaign using its BTCS.COM domain (shorthand for Blockchain Technology Consumer Solutions) to
better reflect its broadened strategy. The Company released its new website which included broader information on its strategy.
In late 2014 we shifted our focus towards our transaction verification service business, also known as bitcoin mining, though
in mid-2016 we ceased our transaction verification services operation at our North Carolina facility due to capital constraints.
The
Company acquires Digital Assets to provide investors
with indirect ownership of Digital Assets that are not securities, such as bitcoin and ether. The Company acquires Digital
Assets through open market purchases. We are not limiting our assets to a single type of Digital Asset and may purchase a variety
of Digital Assets that appear to benefit our investors, subject to the certain limitations regarding Digital Securities. The Company
is also seeking to acquire controlling interests in businesses in the blockchain industry.
The
Company has not participated in any initial coin offerings as it believes most of the offerings entail the offering of Digital
Securities and require registration under the Securities Act and under state securities laws or can only be sold to accredited
investors in the United States. Since about July 2017, initial coin offerings using Digital Securities have been (or should be)
limited to accredited investors. Because we cannot qualify as an accredited investor, we do not intend to acquire coins in initial
coin offerings or from purchasers in such offerings. Further, the Company does not intend to participate in registered or unregistered
initial coin offerings. The Company will carefully review its purchases of Digital Securities to avoid violating the 1940 Act
and seek to reduce potential liabilities under the federal securities laws.
Digital
asset blockchains are typically maintained by a network of participants which run servers which secure their blockchain.
The
Company is also internally developing a digital asset data analytics platform to provide information to users, such as tracking
of multiple exchanges and wallets to aggregate portfolio holdings into a single platform to view and analyze performance, risk
metrics, and potential tax implications.
The
market is rapidly evolving and there can be no assurances that we will be competitive with industry participants that have or
may have greater resources than us.
Note
2 - Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations
of the SEC. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements do not include
all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements, but in the opinion of the Company’s management,
reflect all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative
of results for a full year. The unaudited condensed financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Note
3 - Liquidity, Financial Condition and Management’s Plans
The
Company has commenced its planned operations but has limited operating activities to date. The Company has financed its operations
since inception using proceeds received from capital contributions made by its officers and proceeds in financing transactions.
Notwithstanding,
the Company has limited revenues, limited capital resources and is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties that are typical
of an early stage enterprise. Significant uncertainties include, among others, whether the Company will be able to raise the capital
it needs to finance its longer-term operations and whether such operations, if launched, will enable the Company to sustain operations
as a profitable enterprise.
8
BTCS
Inc.
Notes
to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
Our
working capital needs are influenced by our level of operations, and generally decrease with higher levels of revenue. The Company
used $1,663,889 of cash in its operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company incurred $1,795,897
net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company had cash of $364,703 and negative working capital of $113,924
at September 30, 2020. The Company expects to incur losses into the foreseeable future as it undertakes its efforts to execute
its business plans.
The
Company will require significant additional capital to sustain its short-term operations and make the investments it needs to
execute its longer-term business plan. The Company’s existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund its operations and anticipated
capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. The Company is currently seeking to obtain additional equity financing, primarily
through the Equity Line Purchase Agreement with Cavalry and seeking to obtain additional equity linked debt financing, however
there are currently no other commitments of debt or equity in place for further financing nor is there any assurance that such
financing will be available to the Company on favorable terms, if at all.
Because
of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The financial
statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not made adjustments to the
accompanying financial statements to reflect the potential effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or liabilities
should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The
Company continues to incur ongoing administrative and other operating expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of
revenues. While the Company continues to implement its business strategy, it intends to finance its activities by:
●
managing
current cash and cash equivalents on hand from the Company’s past debt and equity offerings by controlling costs,
●
seeking
additional financing through sales of additional securities whether through Cavalry or other investors.
Note
4 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There
have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2019
Annual Report.
Digital
Assets Translations and Remeasurements
Digital
Assets are included in current assets in the balance sheets. Digital Assets are recorded at cost less impairment.
An
intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when
events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired.
Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first
perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined
that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company
concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized,
the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted.
Realized
gain (loss) on sale of Digital Assets are included in other income (expense) in the statements of operations.
The
Company assesses impairment of Digital Assets quarterly if the fair value of digital assets is less than its cost basis. The Company
recognizes impairment losses on Digital Assets caused by decreases in fair value using the average U.S. dollar spot price of the
related Digital Asset as of each impairment date. Such impairment in the value of Digital Assets are recorded as a component of
costs and expenses in our statements of operations.

Use
of Estimates
The
accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. The Company’s significant estimates and
assumptions include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, the valuation of derivative
liabilities, and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates,
including the carrying amount of the intangible assets, if any, could be affected by external conditions, including those unique
to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on
the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions.
Net
Loss per Share
Basic
loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares
and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the Company’s
convertible preferred stock, convertible notes and warrants. Diluted loss per share excludes the shares issuable upon the conversion
of preferred stock, notes and warrants from the calculation of net loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The
following financial instruments were not included in the diluted loss per share calculation as of September 30, 2020 and 2019
because their effect was anti-dilutive:

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting standards Update (“ASU”)
No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is
intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general
principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective
for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements and related disclosures.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact
on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Certain
statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as may, will, should, would, anticipates, expects, intends, plans,
believes, seeks, estimates and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date hereof. We assume
no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors
contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 23, 2020 and our Prospectus dated June 26, 2020.
Overview
We
are an early entrant in the Digital Asset market and one of the first U.S. publicly traded companies to be involved with Digital
Assets and block chain technologies. To our knowledge, we are one of a few public companies intending to acquire both Digital
Assets and a controlling interest in one or more businesses in the Digital Asset and blockchain industries.
Digital
Asset Initiatives
The
Company acquires additional Digital Assets to provide
investors with indirect ownership of Digital Assets that are not securities, such as bitcoin and ether. The Company acquires
Digital Assets through open market purchases. We are not limiting our assets to a single type of Digital Asset and may purchase
a variety of Digital Assets that appear to benefit our investors, subject to the limitations contained within this report regarding
Digital Securities.
The
following table reflects the fair market value of our Digital Assets as of September 30, 2020:

The
Company has not participated in any initial coin offerings as it believes most of the offerings entail the offering of Digital
Securities and require registration under the Securities Act and under state securities laws or can only be sold to accredited
investors in the United States. Since about July 2017, initial coin offerings using Digital Securities have been (or should be)
limited to accredited investors. Because we cannot qualify as an accredited investor, we do not intend to acquire coins in initial
coin offerings or from purchasers in such offerings. Further, the Company does not intend to participate in registered or unregistered
initial coin offerings. The Company will carefully review its purchases of Digital Securities to avoid violating the 1940 Act
and seek to reduce potential liabilities under the federal securities laws.
The
market is rapidly evolving and there can be no assurances that we will be competitive with industry participants that have or
may have greater resources than us.
Digital
Asset Data Analytics Platform
We
are also focused on Digital Assets and blockchain technologies. We are currently internally developing a digital asset data
analytics platform aimed at aggregating users’ information, such as tracking of multiple exchanges and wallets to
aggregate portfolio holdings into a single platform to view and analyze performance, risk metrics, and potential tax
implications. The platform utilizes digital asset exchange APIs to read user data and does not allow for the trading of
assets. As a result of the pandemic, we have experienced delays in the development of the platform.
12
Acquisition
Initiatives
The
Company is also seeking to acquire controlling interests in businesses in the blockchain industry as further described in this
report. We plan to continue to evaluate other strategic opportunities including acquiring controlling interests in business in
this rapidly evolving sector in an effort to enhance shareholder value.
Even
though the prices of Digital Assets have been subject to substantial volatility and there remains some regulatory uncertainty,
we believe that businesses using blockchain technology and those involved with Digital Assets such as bitcoin and ether, offer
upside opportunity and are the types of opportunities that we may pursue.
Our
current framework or criteria is to seek and evaluate acquisition targets in the blockchain and Digital Asset sector which (i)
align with our business model of acquiring Digital Assets or acquiring a controlling interest in one or more blockchain technology
related business ventures, and (ii) have sufficient capital to provide working capital. As disclosed in this report we have limited
cash, and accordingly as a critical framework element are seeking acquisition targets with sufficient capital which may help us
sustain our operations without having us rely on toxic funding structures. Our acquisition activities are spearheaded by Charles
Allen, our Chief Executive Officer who regularly communicates with Mr. David Garrity, one of our independent directors who is
also seeking acquisition targets on behalf of the Company.
We
also monitor blockchain networks and may consider re-entering the digital asset mining business if and when we believe a positive
return on investment is achievable. However, given the current network difficulties and price levels to mine both bitcoin and
ethereum we do not believe mining offers a positive return on investment at present and have no immediate plans to resume mining.
Going
Concern
Because
of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, our independent auditors have indicated
in their report on our December 31, 2019 financial statements that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as
a going concern.
The
continuation of our business is dependent upon us raising additional funds. The issuance of additional equity or convertible debt
securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial
loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.
We continue to incur
ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, primarily accounting and legal fees, in excess of
corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While we continue to implement its business strategy, it intends to finance its
activities through:
●
managing
current cash and cash equivalents on hand from the Company’s past debt and equity offerings by controlling costs, and
●
seeking
additional financing through sales of additional securities.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Net
Cash from Operating Activities
Net
cash used in operating activities was $1,663,889 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Net cash used in operating activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by a $1,795,897 net loss and $808,355 purchase of digital currencies,
and partially offset by impairment loss on digital currencies of $162,254 and amortization of debt discount of $186,199.
Net
cash used in operating activities was $1,130,323 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net cash used in operating activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily driven by a $911,778 net loss, purchases of digital currencies of $249,923
and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $50,601, and was partially offset by impairment loss on digital assets of $40,698
and amortization on debt discount of $39,741.
Net
Cash from Financing Activities
Net
cash provided by financing activities was $1,885,494 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2020, the Company issued 11,810,018 shares of common stock (including 81,104 pro-rata commitment shares)
under the Purchase Agreement with Cavalry resulting in aggregate proceeds of approximately $1.4 million. In addition, the Company
entered into a $500,000 short term convertible note payable in April 2020. The convertible note bears interest at 12%.
Net
cash provided by financing activities was approximately $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, including $0.2
million from exercise of warrants and $1.1 million from selling a total of 4,041,407 shares of common stock under the Purchase
Agreement which excludes 333,334 commitment shares issued upon entering the Purchase Agreement.
Liquidity
As
of November 3, 2020, the Company had $770,742 of cash.
On
September 30, 2020, we had current assets of $1,299,181 and current liabilities of $1,413,105, rendering negative working capital
of $113,924.
Our
working capital needs are influenced by our level of operations, and generally decrease with higher levels of revenue. The Company
used $1,663,889 of cash in its operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company incurred a $1,795,897
net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The Company had cash of $364,703 and negative working capital of $113,924
at September 30, 2020. The Company expects to incur losses into the foreseeable future as it undertakes its efforts to execute
its business plans.
On
April 17, 2020, we issued an institutional investor a $500,000 promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) in consideration
for $500,000. The Promissory Note is (i) due on February 17, 2021, (ii) convertible at a 35% discount to the closing price of
the Company’s common stock on the date before exercise with a floor price of $0.01 per share and (iii) shall bear interest
at 12% per annum (payable at maturity). Subject to certain limitations, the Company may force conversion of the Promissory Note.
As
of October 28, 2020, the Company had sold 19,540,407 shares of common stock (and issued 177,054 commitment shares) under the $10
million Purchase Agreement and received $3,034,541 in connection with the sales. We cannot provide any assurance that we will
be able to continue selling under the $10 million Purchase Agreement or that we will be able to do so at prices that we believe
are beneficial to the Company and its shareholders.
15
We
will require significant additional capital to sustain short-term operations and make the investments needed to execute our longer-term
business plan. Our existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund operations and anticipated capital expenditures for the foreseeable
future, and we do not have sufficient cash resources to support our current operations for the next 12 months, and will need additional
funding, whether through our $10 million Purchase Agreement or other sources, to resume revenue generating activities. If we attempt
to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to us on favorable
terms, if at all.
Because
of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as
a going concern. We have not made adjustments to the accompanying unaudited financial statements to reflect the potential effects
on the recoverability and classification of assets or liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
We
continue to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, primarily accounting and legal
fees, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While we continue to implement its business strategy, it intends
to finance its activities through:
●
managing
current cash and cash equivalents on hand from the Company’s past debt and equity offerings by controlling costs, and
●
seeking
additional financing through sales of additional securities.
