−Removed: Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted the Last-In, First-Out (“LIFO”)
−Removed: method for determining the cost basis of crypto assets disposed of.
−Removed: This method assumes that the most recently acquired assets are sold
−Removed: or used first and replaces the Company’s previous use of the specific identification method, which tracked the actual cost of each
−Removed: individual asset sold.
−Removed: Company determined that the change in accounting principle is preferable as it better aligns with the Company’s operational systems
−Removed: and financial reporting objectives.
−Removed: The change has been applied prospectively beginning January 1, 2025, as retrospective application
−Removed: was deemed impracticable due to the nature of prior lot-level selection processes under the specific identification method.
−Removed: gains (losses) on sale of crypto assets are included in operating expenses in the statements of operations.
−Removed: The Company recorded
−Removed: realized gains (losses) on crypto assets of approximately ($ 4,408,000 ) and ($ 122,000 ) for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and
−Removed: 2024, respectively, and approximately ($ 8,568,000 ) and $ 176,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
−Removed: Company does not believe the change materially impacts comparability of results.
−Removed: While the realized loss for the three and nine months
−Removed: ended September 30, 2025, reflects application of the new LIFO method, it is not practicable to quantify the exact impact of the change
−Removed: as compared to the prior method, given the subjective lot selection involved in specific identification.
−Removed: Based on this assessment, the
−Removed: Company does not believe the change has a material effect on the financial statements.
−Removed: of Crypto Assets in the Statements of Cash Flows
−Removed: classification of purchases and sales in the statements of cash flows is determined based on the nature of the crypto assets, which can
−Removed: be categorized as ‘productive’ (i.e.
−Removed: acquired for purposes of staking or liquidity provision) or ‘non-productive’
−Removed: (e.g., NFTs).
−Removed: Acquisitions of non-productive crypto assets are treated as operating activities, while acquisitions of productive crypto

+Added: in liquid markets and are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 350-60.
+Added: These include
+Added: digital assets held in treasury, deployed in DeFi protocols, or staked in validator operations.
+Added: assets accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of assets that do
+Added: not have readily determinable fair values or do not represent fungible tokens, including

+Added: These assets are recorded at cost less impairment under ASC 350.
+Added: Assets Measured at Fair Value
+Added: Company accounts for its digital assets under ASC 350-60, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Digital assets , and measures
+Added: such assets at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement .
+Added: Fair value represents the price that would be received
+Added: for an asset in a current sale, assuming an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
+Added: Market participants
+Added: are considered to be independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.
+Added: Company measures fair value based on its principal market, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market to which

+Added: assets – DeFi represent assets deployed in decentralized finance protocols for lending and liquidity provision.
+Added: assets – staked represent assets actively staked to validator nodes and deployed in blockchain validation activities to
+Added: earn staking rewards.
+Added: assets measured at fair value are further disaggregated in Note 4 – Digital Assets (Fair Value) .
+Added: assets measured at fair value are presented as current assets unless they are subject to protocol-imposed restrictions exceeding twelve
+Added: Staked digital assets are classified as non-current if their lock-up periods extend beyond one year.
+Added: The majority of the Company’s
+Added: digital assets are deployed either in staking arrangements with average lock-up periods of less than seven days or in DeFi arrangements
+Added: that permit redemption on a near-immediate basis.
+Added: Accordingly, these assets are classified as current under ASC 210-10-20, Balance
+Added: Sheet , due to the Company’s ability to sell them in a liquid marketplace and its reasonable expectation that they will be realized
+Added: in cash or in operations within the normal operating cycle.
+Added: The cost basis of digital assets received is measured at fair value based on the hourly spot price at the time of receipt,

+Added: initiated by third-party market participants.
+Added: In exchange, the Company receives a new liquidity pool position that represents a different
+Added: unit of account from the contributed digital assets.
+Added: Accordingly, the Company derecognizes the digital assets contributed and recognizes
+Added: the liquidity pool position at cost, measured based on the fair value of the digital assets deposited at the time of the transaction.
+Added: Any difference between the fair value used to measure the liquidity pool position and the carrying amounts of the digital assets derecognized
+Added: is recognized as a realized gain or loss on digital asset transactions in the statements of operations.
+Added: While a liquidity pool position
+Added: remains open, the relative amounts of the underlying digital assets attributable to the position may change as a result of automated market
+Added: maker activity, price movements, and third-party interactions with the pool.
+Added: The Company treats these changes as internal economic rebalancing

+Added: 3 financial liabilities previously consisted of warrant liabilities for which there was no active market and fair value was determined
+Added: using valuation models incorporating unobservable inputs.
+Added: warrant liabilities originated from warrants issued in a prior financing transaction and were previously classified as derivative liabilities.
+Added: These warrants were classified as derivative liabilities because certain terms could have required net-cash settlement under circumstances
+Added: outside the Company’s control.
+Added: Prior to their expiration, the warrant liabilities were measured at fair value using an option pricing
+Added: model that incorporated inputs such as the Company’s stock price, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected term.
+Added: outstanding liability-classified warrants expired during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
+Added: As a result, there were no warrant liabilities
+Added: outstanding as of March 31, 2026, and the Company will no longer remeasure warrant liabilities in future periods.

+Added: Fair Value Measurements of Intangible Digital Assets
+Added: Company holds certain digital assets, including liquidity pool positions and NFTs, that are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible
+Added: assets under ASC 350 and measured at cost less impairment.
+Added: These assets are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis and, therefore,
+Added: are excluded from the recurring fair value hierarchy tables presented below.
+Added: When the Company recognizes an impairment loss, the fair
+Added: value measurement used to measure the impairment represents a nonrecurring fair value measurement under ASC 820.
+Added: See Note 5 – Digital
+Added: Assets (Liquidity Pool Positions and Other Intangible Digital Assets) for additional information.
+Added: the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized impairment losses of approximately $ 210,000
+Added: related to intangible digital assets, including approximately
+Added: $ 194,000 impairment
+Added: of liquidity pool positions and approximately $ 16,000
+Added: impairment of NFTS, because the carrying amounts of certain
+Added: assets exceeded their estimated fair values.
+Added: After recognizing impairment, the carrying amounts of liquidity pool positions and NFTs
+Added: as of March 31, 2026 were approximately $ 11,358,000
+Added: and $ 26,000 ,
+Added: respectively.
+Added: To the extent the related assets were written down to fair value during the period, these amounts represent the assets’
+Added: fair values as of the March 31, 2026 nonrecurring measurement date.
+Added: The impairment losses are included in impairment loss on intangible
+Added: digital assets in the statements of operations.
+Added: fair value of liquidity pool positions was estimated using a market approach based on the observable value of the underlying digital
+Added: assets withdrawable from the applicable liquidity pools as of the measurement date, including observable on-chain pool composition, pool
+Added: liquidity and quoted market prices for the underlying digital assets.
+Added: Because the measurement was based principally on observable inputs
+Added: and no significant unobservable adjustments were applied, the related nonrecurring fair value measurement was categorized within Level
+Added: 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
+Added: fair value of NFTs was estimated using a market approach based on available NFT marketplace information, including recent transactions,
+Added: floor prices or other marketplace indications for comparable NFTs, as adjusted for asset-specific characteristics and limited market
+Added: The related nonrecurring fair value measurement was categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because there are
+Added: no quoted prices in active markets for identical NFTs and the measurement involves management judgment.
+Added: For the Level 3 NFT measurement,
+Added: significant unobservable inputs consisted primarily of management’s judgment in selecting comparable NFT marketplace data and evaluating
+Added: asset-specific characteristics and market activity.
+Added: The Company did not develop material quantitative unobservable adjustments in measuring
+Added: 7 – Revenues and Cost of Revenues
+Added: Company generates revenue from blockchain infrastructure operations, including validator node operations, block building activities,
+Added: and DeFi arrangements.
+Added: These revenue streams are accounted for under ASC 606 , Revenue from Contracts
+Added: with Customers , as the Company provides services that generate consideration in the form of digital assets.
+Added: ASC 606, the Company applies the following five-step model to all revenue-generating arrangements:
+Added: Identify the contract with the customer
+Added: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
+Added: Determine the transaction price
+Added: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
+Added: Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation
+Added: Company’s revenues are generated from blockchain-based operations and comprise three primary sources:
+Added: (i) staking rewards earned
+Added: from validator node operations (NodeOps);
+Added: (ii) execution-layer transaction fees, priority fees, and MEV rewards earned from block-building
+Added: activities (Builder+);
+Added: and (iii) protocol-driven rewards earned from participation in DeFi protocols (Imperium).
+Added: Revenues from NodeOps
+Added: and Builder+ are aggregated and presented as Blockchain infrastructure revenues , while revenues from Imperium are presented separately
+Added: as DeFi revenues in the statements of operations.
+Added: transaction consideration the Company receives in the form of native digital assets, such as ETH or other network tokens, represents
+Added: non-cash consideration at fair value on the date the digital assets are earned.
+Added: Collectively,
+Added: these activities represent the outputs of the Company’s ordinary operations and are measured at the fair
+Added: value of the digital assets earned at the time each performance obligation is satisfied.
+Added: The Company operates digital asset
+Added: validator nodes on the Ethereum network (“NodeOps”) through which it participates directly in the network’s consensus
+Added: In this role, the Company stakes its own digital assets to validate transactions and propose or attest to blocks on the Ethereum
+Added: Staked assets are subject to protocol-defined lock-up and withdrawal periods.
+Added: In exchange for validating transactions
+Added: and participating in block production, the Company earns protocol-determined rewards, including consensus layer issuance and priority
+Added: fees, which are distributed by the Ethereum network as part of its consensus mechanism.
+Added: Company earns these rewards directly from the Ethereum protocol, which calculates and distributes such rewards to the Company’s
+Added: digital wallets, and does not act as an agent or intermediary for third parties.
+Added: provision of validation services represents an output of the Company’s ordinary activities.
+Added: Validation activities, including block
+Added: proposals and attestations, represent the Company’s performance obligations.
+Added: The performance obligation is satisfied at a point
+Added: in time when the validation is confirmed by the network and the associated rewards are earned and available for transfer, at which point
+Added: revenue is recognized.
+Added: Company earns revenue by participating as a Builder on blockchain networks that have implemented a proposer-builder separation (“PBS”)
+Added: framework, including Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain (“BSC”).
+Added: In these roles, the Company bundles and proposes transaction
+Added: blocks for submission to network Validators (“block building”), and is compensated when its blocks are selected, proposed,
+Added: and successfully finalized on the applicable network.
+Added: Block Building
+Added: Company participates in the Ethereum blockchain network by engaging in the construction of blocks containing strategically bundled transactions
+Added: from the Ethereum mempool and from searchers who connect to the Company’s endpoint with the intent of the Company’s Builder
+Added: proposing their transactions.
+Added: Revenue recognition for these activities, conducted through Builder+, entails the recognition of execution
+Added: layer transaction fees (or “transaction fees”) and priority fees (or “tips”) earned in exchange for successfully
+Added: constructing blocks of bundled transactions and having these blocks selected and proposed by a validator to the Ethereum network for
+Added: validation and successfully finalized on the network.
+Added: transaction fees and tips are earned as a direct result of the Company’s fulfillment of its performance obligations, which include
+Added: the construction of blocks by bundling transactions to maximize the value of the included fees and the proposal of that block by a Validator.
+Added: Each constructed block under a smart contract with the Ethereum network signifies a distinct performance obligation.
+Added: part of the block construction and proposal process, the Company’s Builder purchases block space through a fixed non-negotiable
+Added: fee paid to a Validator (a “Validator Payment”) embedded in each proposed block.
+Added: The Validator Payment, predetermined by
+Added: the Builder, is paid to Validators as compensation for selecting and proposing the Company’s block to the network for validation.
+Added: The Validator Payment is intrinsically linked to the Company’s performance obligations and is disbursed in the block constructed
+Added: by the Builder if our Builder’s block is both selected by a Validator and successfully proposed to, and finalized on, the Ethereum
+Added: otherwise, our Validator Payment may be included in a subsequent block.
+Added: The Validator Payment represents a direct and fixed
+Added: pre-determined cost.
+Added: satisfaction of the performance obligation occurs at a point in time when the constructed block is both proposed by a Validator and successfully
+Added: finalized on the Ethereum network.
+Added: At this juncture, the Company has fulfilled its obligations, and the transaction fees and tips associated
+Added: with the transactions included in the block become available and are transferred to the Company’s digital wallet.
+Added: Company recognizes revenue, reflecting the fair value of the total transaction fees and tips earned from the constructed block.
+Added: Smart Chain (BSC) Block Building
+Added: Company also operates as a Builder on Binance Smart Chain (“BSC”), which uses a Proof-of-Staked-Authority (“PoSA”)
+Added: consensus and a distinct block-building and reward structure.
+Added: The native token of BSC is BNB, which is used for both transaction fees
+Added: and transaction-based payments.
+Added: on BSC construct block bids composed of transactions and optional searcher tips.
+Added: Unlike Ethereum, transaction fees associated with user
+Added: transactions included in a finalized BSC block are paid directly to the Validator’s coinbase address and are not received by the
+Added: Instead, the Builder earns revenue in the form of BNB-denominated tips that are directed to a Builder-controlled tip smart contract
+Added: as priority fees and transferred or made available to the Company as part of the block-level settlement mechanics for each successfully
+Added: finalized block.
+Added: performance obligations on BSC are satisfied on a block-by-block basis when the constructed block is selected and proposed by a Validator
+Added: and finalized on-chain.
+Added: Each finalized block is considered a separate performance obligation.
+Added: The Company recognizes BSC block-building
+Added: revenue at the time each block is finalized and the related BNB-denominated tips are transferred or otherwise made available to the Company,
+Added: measured at the fair value of BNB at that time.
+Added: connection with BSC block building, the Company includes a Builder-specified bid payment, structured through a self-transfer transaction
+Added: appended by the Builder, to incentivize the Validator to select the Company’s block.
+Added: Such payments are recorded as cost of revenues
+Added: because they represent direct costs of fulfilling the BSC block-building performance obligation.
+Added: Lending Revenue (Aave)
+Added: Company earns rewards from DeFi lending arrangements, primarily through the Aave protocol, by supplying digital assets to decentralized
+Added: lending pools.
+Added: These arrangements generate variable returns based on supply and demand dynamics within the protocol.
+Added: the Company deposits ETH into Aave, the underlying ETH remains recognized at fair value on the balance sheet, consistent with the accounting
+Added: policy described in Note 3.
+Added: The Company earns variable rewards, typically in ETH, which accrue continuously based on utilization of the
+Added: lending pool.
+Added: Company has concluded that its participation in these arrangements represents a performance obligation satisfied over time, as the protocol’s
+Added: users simultaneously receive and consume the benefits of the Company’s supplied liquidity.
+Added: Revenue is recognized over time in proportion
+Added: to rewards earned and is measured at the fair value of the digital assets at the time the consideration is earned.
+Added: Variable consideration
+Added: is constrained to amounts not subject to significant reversal in accordance with ASC 606-10-32-11.
+Added: The Company also earns fees and
+Added: other rewards through participation in decentralized exchange liquidity pools.
+Added: By depositing digital assets into these pools, the Company
+Added: provides liquidity to decentralized markets and earns a proportional share of fees generated by the protocol.
+Added: contrast to DeFi lending arrangements, deposits into liquidity pools result in the derecognition of the underlying digital assets and
+Added: the recognition of liquidity pool positions accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets, as described in Note 3 and Note 5.
+Added: The Company’s participation
+Added: in liquidity pools represents a performance obligation satisfied over time, as liquidity is continuously provided to the protocol.
+Added: is recognized over time based on the Company’s proportional share of fees and other rewards generated and is measured at the fair
+Added: value of digital assets received at the time the fees are earned.
+Added: Variable consideration is constrained to amounts not subject to significant
+Added: earned through Imperium are classified as DeFi revenues in the statements of operations.
+Added: The Company is considered the principal
+Added: in these arrangements because it controls the deployment of its digital assets, bears protocol and market risks (including smart-contract,
+Added: liquidity, and liquidation risk), and earns consideration directly from the protocol rather than through an intermediary.
+Added: Disaggregation
+Added: following table summarizes the revenues earned from the Company’s operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
+Added: Schedule of Disaggregation of Revenues
+Added: For the Three Months Ended March 31,
+Added: Blockchain infrastructure revenues
+Added: Total blockchain infrastructure revenues
+Added: DeFi revenues (Imperium)
+Added: Total revenues
+Added: Company’s cost of revenues primarily consists of direct expenses incurred in connection with its blockchain operations, including
+Added: NodeOps, Builder+ and Imperium activities.
+Added: Infrastructure Operations (NodeOps and Builder+)
+Added: Company’s cost of revenues related to its blockchain infrastructure operations primarily includes direct production costs associated
+Added: with transaction validation and block construction on blockchain networks.
+Added: These costs include cloud-based server hosting expenses related
+Added: to our validator nodes and Builders, allocated employee compensation related to the monitoring, maintenance and support operations.
+Added: Additionally,
+Added: for Ethereum block building, cost of revenues includes Validator Payments made by the Company’s Builder to Validators as compensation
+Added: for proposing constructed blocks.
+Added: These are fixed amounts embedded within the proposed blocks and are paid only when the block is successfully
+Added: finalized on-chain.
+Added: BSC block building, although the Builder does not receive the transaction fees attached to the bundled
+Added: transactions included in a finalized block, it must still compete for inclusion by proposing an additional bid, structured as a self-transaction,
+Added: that specifies extra fees intended to incentivize the Validator to select its block.
+Added: This self-transaction results in a direct payment
+Added: to the Validator’s coinbase address.
+Added: These Builder-specified bids are separate from the transaction fees attached to user transactions
+Added: and represent incremental value added by the Builder intended to increase the likelihood of block inclusion.
+Added: The Company records these
+Added: Builder-specified bid payments as cost of revenues, as they are a direct cost of fulfilling the block-building performance obligations
