+Added: acquired for purposes of staking or liquidity provision) or ‘non-productive’
+Added: (e.g., NFTs).
+Added: Acquisitions of non-productive crypto assets are treated as operating activities, while acquisitions of productive crypto

+Added: Deployed in DeFi Arrangements
+Added: DeFi arrangements, such as those transacted on the Aave protocol, the Company participates as a Liquidity Provider, depositing ETH into
+Added: Aave’s decentralized lending pools.
+Added: When ETH is supplied, it becomes part of the protocol’s available liquidity that borrowers
+Added: may draw upon.
+Added: The deposited ETH earns variable rewards based on market supply and demand for borrowing within the protocol.
+Added: ETH supplied by the Company is also eligible to serve as collateral supporting on-chain borrowing activities.
+Added: The collateral value of
+Added: the deposited ETH contributes to the overall “health factor” of the Company’s Aave wallet.
+Added: The health factor is a protocol
+Added: metric that measures the ratio of collateral value to outstanding borrowings and automatically updates with changes in ETH market prices.
+Added: The health factor determines the safety buffer against liquidation;
+Added: maintaining a value greater than 1.0 ensures sufficient collateralization,
+Added: while a decline below 1.0 could trigger partial liquidation of the collateral by the protocol’s smart contracts.
+Added: deposit, ETH is automatically wrapped into Aave Wrapped ETH (“WAETH” or “aEthWETH”) to enable ERC-20 interoperability
+Added: and facilitate reward accrual within the lending pool.
+Added: The Company has concluded that this conversion does not constitute a derecognition
+Added: event under ASC 610-20, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets , as no other counterparty
+Added: obtains control or economic benefits of the deposited ETH.
+Added: Rather, WAETH serves as a receipt or claim token evidencing the Company’s
+Added: continuing interest in the underlying ETH.
+Added: deployed into DeFi protocols remains recognized at its fair value under ASC 350-60.
+Added: is not recognized as a separate intangible asset since it is economically equivalent to the
+Added: underlying ETH.
+Added: deployed within DeFi protocols is disclosed as encumbered when serving as collateral for
+Added: borrowing arrangements or liquidity provision activities.
+Added: gain or loss is recognized upon wrapping or unwrapping ETH within DeFi protocols.
+Added: reward earned from such DeFi deployments is recognized as DeFi revenues on the statements of operations in accordance with ASC
+Added: 606, as discussed in Note 3 - Revenue Recognition section.
+Added: of September 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 38,999 ETH deployed within DeFi protocols, which remains reflected as ETH within
+Added: Crypto assets - DeFi on the balance sheet and disclosed separately in Note 4 – Crypto Assets , including disclosure
+Added: of their restricted status.
+Added: Deployed ETH is subject to protocol-specific risks, including smart-contract vulnerabilities, liquidity constraints,
+Added: collateral liquidation risk, and potential protocol governance changes.
+Added: Tokens (NFTs)
+Added: Company holds certain non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”), which are unique digital assets recorded on a blockchain.
+Added: represent ownership interests in an entity or contractual rights to cash flows, and therefore do not qualify as financial instruments
+Added: or equity securities under ASC 320 or ASC 321.
+Added: Consistent with the accounting treatment applied to other crypto assets, the Company accounts
+Added: for NFTs as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other .
+Added: are initially recorded at cost and are not amortized.
+Added: NFTs are assessed for impairment each reporting period to determine if any events
+Added: or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired.
+Added: If the fair value of an NFT is less
+Added: than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to the difference.
+Added: Subsequent increases in fair value are not recorded.
+Added: Realized gains or losses on the sale of NFTs are included in other income (expense) in the statements of operations.
+Added: value used in impairment testing is determined in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement .
+Added: Unlike fungible crypto assets,
+Added: NFTs typically do not trade on centralized exchanges with quoted prices.
+Added: Instead, the Company evaluates impairment by reference to observable
+Added: transactions, where available, on active NFT marketplaces.
+Added: the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company purchased multiple NFTs for aggregate consideration of approximately
+Added: These NFTs are included within Non-fungible tokens on the balance sheets.
+Added: No impairment losses were recognized for the
