+Added: August 18, 2025, Datacentrex entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with TZUP Merger Sub,
+Added: Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Datacentrex (“Merger Sub”), and Dogehash Technologies, Inc.
+Added: (“Doge”), a Nevada
+Added: corporation, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire Doge.
+Added: December 15, 2025, Merger Sub and Doge filed Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State pursuant to which, effective as of
+Added: December 15, 2025, Merger Sub merged with and into Doge with Doge surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
+Added: the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued an aggregate of 13,835,188 shares of the Company’s common stock, and 16,239.812
+Added: shares of Series D Convertible Preferred convertible into an aggregate of 16,239,812 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Doge
+Added: in exchange for 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Doge.
+Added: December 15, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary
+Added: of State of the State of Nevada to change its name to Datacentrex, Inc.
+Added: from Thumzup Media Corporation.
+Added: March 26, 2026, we entered into a placement agency with Dominari Securities LLC, pursuant to which we sold directly to investors, in
+Added: a best efforts offering, an aggregate of (i) 4,510,000 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share and (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase
+Added: up to an aggregate of 5,575,000 shares of common stock at $1.99 per pre-funded warrant.
+Added: The securities were offered and sold by us pursuant
+Added: to our effective registration statement on Form S-3 (File No.
+Added: The closing of the offering occurred on March 31, 2026 and
+Added: the gross proceeds from the offering were approximately $20.2 million, before deducting placement agent fees and expenses and estimated
+Added: offering expenses payable by us.
+Added: We intend to use the net proceeds received from the offering for working capital and general corporate
+Added: Business Model
+Added: generate revenues by deploying owned Scrypt ASIC hardware to produce PoW hashrate and monetizing that hashrate through market-based channels.
+Added: Our model can be summarized as:
+Added: and operating owned Scrypt ASIC hardware;
+Added: competitive power and physical hosting through colocation agreements;
+Added: operational discipline through monitoring, maintenance, configuration management, and rapid response to downtime;
+Added: hashrate primarily through a hashrate marketplace model (typically settling in Bitcoin);
+Added: treasury assets and cash with the objective of preserving capital while pursuing yield-enhancing and accretive opportunities consistent
+Added: with our risk management approach.
+Added: monetization approach is intended to reduce reliance on any single protocol-native payout stream and improve realized economics by seeking
+Added: transparent market pricing for compute and minimizing certain fees and conversion costs that can arise under traditional pool-based mining
+Added: Proof-of-Work Compute and Merged Mining
+Added: is a PoW hashing algorithm used by Litecoin and certain other digital asset networks, including Dogecoin.
+Added: Scrypt ASIC miners are not
+Added: interchangeable with SHA-256 ASIC miners used for Bitcoin.
+Added: As a result, Scrypt compute is a distinct compute market with different hardware
+Added: supply dynamics, competition levels, and revenue drivers.
+Added: primarily contribute hashrate to the Litecoin blockchain.
+Added: Litecoin supports merged mining, which allows the same computational work used
+Added: to validate Litecoin blocks to simultaneously validate additional Scrypt-based networks.
+Added: In practical terms, merged mining can allow
+Added: a miner to generate rewards attributable to multiple networks from the same energy input, subject to the rules of the applicable protocols
+Added: and the payout mechanisms used by the monetization channel.
+Added: mining does not create unlimited or guaranteed incremental economics.
+Added: Rewards attributable to auxiliary networks may vary based on protocol
+Added: parameters, network conditions, and monetization mechanics.
+Added: The Company remains exposed to market and network dynamics affecting Scrypt
+Added: compute generally, including changes in total network hashrate, mining difficulty, protocol reward structures, and transaction fee markets.
+Added: Monetization and Marketplace Model
+Added: PoW miners often monetize compute by connecting directly to a mining pool that aggregates hashrate from many miners and distributes protocol-native
+Added: rewards net of pool fees.
+Added: Under that approach, miners may then convert protocol-native rewards into other assets (including fiat currencies)
+Added: to fund operations or pursue a desired treasury exposure, which can introduce conversion costs, liquidity constraints, execution slippage,
+Added: and incremental operational complexity.
+Added: primarily monetize our Scrypt compute through a hashrate marketplace model.
+Added: In a hashrate marketplace, compute providers offer available
+Added: hashrate to third-party buyers seeking computational capacity for PoW validation.
+Added: Buyers pay a market-determined rate for hashrate, and
+Added: the marketplace coordinates matching, settlement, and operational routing.
+Added: Under this model, we generally receive compensation based
+Added: on prevailing market demand for Scrypt hashrate, with settlement typically denominated in Bitcoin.
+Added: believes that monetizing hashrate through a marketplace can, depending on market conditions, (i) improve realized pay rates for hashrate
+Added: relative to certain pool-based alternatives, (ii) reduce or eliminate certain pool participation fees and payout variance associated
+Added: with protocol-native distributions, and (iii) reduce the need for post-mining conversion transactions that may otherwise create incremental
+Added: Marketplace monetization also introduces reliance on marketplace operators and exposes the Company to operational and counterparty
+Added: risks associated with those platforms.
+Added: may utilize mining pools opportunistically or for redundancy;
+Added: however, we view marketplace monetization as a core component of our current
+Added: Our realized revenue under either model remains sensitive to market demand for compute, network-level dynamics, and overall
+Added: digital asset market conditions.
+Added: Recognition and Customers
+Added: Company generates revenue through the monetization of Scrypt compute via hashrate marketplaces.
+Added: Under this model, the Company offers
+Added: available hashrate to third-party buyers seeking computational capacity for PoW validation.
+Added: Buyers pay a market-determined rate for hashrate
+Added: based on prevailing supply and demand.
+Added: is recognized when payment for delivered hashrate is received and the corresponding digital assets are transferred to a wallet controlled
+Added: by the Company.
+Added: Amounts earned but not yet settled or received are not recognized as revenue.
+Added: Settlement under the hashrate marketplace
+Added: model is typically denominated in Bitcoin.
+Added: buyers of the Company’s hashrate are not concentrated and may include a broad range of market participants.
+Added: Buyers may include
+Added: miners, infrastructure operators, trading firms, and arbitrage participants who purchase hashrate and redirect it to alternative pools
+Added: or strategies to capture yield, pricing inefficiencies, or other economic opportunities.
+Added: The Company does not typically enter into long-term
+Added: bilateral contracts with hashrate buyers and generally does not have direct visibility into buyers’ downstream use of purchased
+Added: hashrate is sold through marketplace mechanisms, the Company does not rely on a limited number of end customers and is not subject to
+Added: traditional customer concentration risk;
+Added: however, the Company remains dependent on the continued operation and liquidity of the marketplaces
+Added: through which it monetizes hashrate.
+Added: Operating Inputs
+Added: asset market conditions .
+Added: Our results are influenced by price, volatility, and liquidity in digital asset markets, including the assets
+Added: associated with Scrypt networks and the settlement asset we receive through monetization channels.
+Added: Adverse movements may reduce revenue
+Added: and operating margins and impair liquidity.
+Added: difficulty and hashrate .
+Added: PoW networks dynamically adjust mining difficulty based on total network hashrate.
+Added: Increased network hashrate
+Added: typically increases difficulty, which reduces expected rewards per unit of hashrate deployed and can pressure margins if power costs
+Added: or monetization rates do not improve.
+Added: Conversely, declines in network hashrate can reduce difficulty and improve expected economics for
+Added: remaining miners.
+Added: costs and curtailment .
+Added: Electricity is a primary input cost.
+Added: Power rates, capacity charges, curtailment obligations, transmission
+Added: constraints, and other ancillary costs can materially affect profitability.
+Added: We may be required to curtail load or may voluntarily curtail
+Added: load when economically advantageous or contractually required.
+Added: and operational execution .
+Added: Because revenue depends on continuous operation of compute assets, uptime is a critical driver of realized
+Added: Equipment failures, facility outages, maintenance, networking issues, and configuration errors can reduce uptime and revenue.
+Added: supply and replacement cycles .
+Added: Scrypt ASIC supply is subject to vendor production schedules, logistics, and market availability.
+Added: As competition evolves, miners may need to deploy newer hardware, replace components, or optimize existing fleets to remain competitive.
+Added: performance .
+Added: Our business depends on the performance of hosting providers, marketplace operators, custodians, and trading venues.
+Added: Counterparty failures, cybersecurity incidents, or operational disruptions could materially affect results.
+Added: Structure and Operating Leverage
+Added: Company’s cost structure consists primarily of power costs, hosting-related expenses, and depreciation of capitalized mining equipment.
+Added: is the primary operating cost of the Company’s compute operations.
+Added: Power consumption is variable based on the number of machines
+Added: operating at any given time.
+Added: However, under the Company’s existing colocation arrangements, the price of electricity is fixed pursuant
+Added: to contractual agreements, and uptime and power delivery obligations are contractually defined.
+Added: a hosting or colocation provider fails to deliver power in accordance with the terms of the applicable agreement, the Company may be
+Added: entitled to monetary penalties or, in certain circumstances, to terminate the agreement without recourse to the host.
+Added: As a result, while
+Added: power usage fluctuates with operational decisions, power pricing and availability are substantially governed by contract.
+Added: and Operating Costs
+Added: Hosting-related
+Added: costs include facility services, power delivery infrastructure, networking, and site-level operations provided by colocation partners.
+Added: These costs may include both fixed and variable components depending on contractual terms and facility configuration.
+Added: equipment is capitalized and depreciated over its estimated useful life.
+Added: Hardware costs are not expensed as incurred, and operating margins
+Added: are therefore sensitive to both depreciation expense and the economic productivity of deployed equipment.
+Added: Leverage and Scale
+Added: scale does not inherently improve margins under a pure hosting model.
+Added: Meaningful margin expansion is primarily achievable through upstream
+Added: integration into power ownership or power-adjacent infrastructure.
+Added: If the Company were to acquire or control power generation, interconnection,
+Added: or other upstream assets, margins could expand significantly due to reduced energy costs and improved control over the cost structure.
+Added: There can be no assurance that such opportunities will be pursued or achieved.
+Added: Equipment and Hosting Arrangements
+Added: owns a fleet of specialized Scrypt ASIC miners used to generate PoW hashrate.
+Added: Since inception of the operating platform, the Company
+Added: has invested in excess of $29 million in mining equipment and related infrastructure.
+Added: of the consummation of the Merger, the Company operated more than 3,100 Scrypt ASIC miners, which are deployed across multiple colocation
+Added: The Company may hold certain equipment in inventory, in transit, or in staging for deployment, and may acquire additional
+Added: miners or components depending on expansion plans, equipment availability, and capital allocation priorities.
+Added: economic performance of the Company’s mining equipment depends on a number of factors, including hardware reliability, uptime,
+Added: network difficulty, power costs, and monetization rates.
+Added: Over time, competitive dynamics may require replacement, refurbishment, or redeployment
+Added: of equipment to maintain attractive operating economics.
+Added: Lifespan and Replacement Cycles
+Added: ASIC miners have finite useful lives and are subject to technological obsolescence over time.
+Added: However, the lifecycle dynamics of Scrypt
+Added: mining equipment differ from those of SHA-256 mining equipment used in Bitcoin mining.
+Added: Scrypt ASIC market is served by a limited number of manufacturers, and innovation cycles have historically occurred at a slower pace
+Added: relative to Bitcoin mining hardware.
+Added: As a result, Scrypt miners may retain economic usefulness for longer periods, and new hardware generations
+Added: may not render prior generations obsolete as rapidly as in other PoW markets.
+Added: believes these dynamics can support longer economic lifespans and residual value for Scrypt mining equipment relative to certain other
+Added: mining categories.
+Added: Nonetheless, future technological developments, changes in network economics, or shifts in competitive dynamics could
+Added: reduce the useful life or value of existing equipment.
+Added: and Colocation Arrangements
+Added: deploys its mining equipment primarily through third-party colocation and hosting arrangements.
+Added: Under these arrangements, hosting providers
+Added: supply physical space, electrical infrastructure, power delivery, and certain site services necessary to operate energy-intensive compute
+Added: The Company retains ownership of its mining equipment and remains responsible for configuration, monitoring, maintenance coordination,
+Added: and operational management, subject to the terms of applicable hosting agreements.
+Added: Company currently operates under three colocation arrangements that provide access to electric power sourced from the Electric Reliability
+Added: Council of Texas (ERCOT) grid, the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) grid, and the Georgia Power grid, respectively.
+Added: arrangements allow Datacentrex to diversify geographic exposure, grid risk, and operational dependencies while supporting deployment
+Added: of its existing fleet.
+Added: Hosting arrangements expose the Company to counterparty risk, including the risk that a hosting provider fails
+Added: to perform its obligations, experiences operational disruptions, or becomes financially distressed.
+Added: Hosting agreements may also include
+Added: provisions related to curtailment, maintenance windows, capacity constraints, or other operational limitations that can affect uptime
+Added: believes that deploying equipment across multiple facilities and grid regions reduces reliance on any single site or power market.
+Added: diversification does not eliminate the risk of correlated events, including regional grid disruptions, extreme weather events, regulatory
+Added: actions, or market-wide curtailment programs.
+Added: The Company’s ability to expand operations depends on the availability of additional
+Added: hosting capacity, power, and interconnection on acceptable terms, as well as access to capital and equipment supply.
+Added: Liquidity, and Custody
+Added: manage digital assets and cash as part of a dynamic treasury and capital allocation strategy intended to preserve capital, maintain liquidity,
+Added: and enhance long-term value creation.
+Added: our hashrate marketplace monetization model, settlement is typically received in Bitcoin.
+Added: Management has historically evaluated retaining
+Added: Bitcoin-denominated proceeds as a treasury asset rather than immediately converting to fiat currency and expects that future treasury
+Added: concentration may favor Bitcoin over time.
+Added: From time to time, we may allocate a portion of Dogecoin exposure to pilot-stage, protocol-native
+Added: yield opportunities within the Dogecoin ecosystem, including limited participation in Layer-2 networks.
+Added: These activities remain exploratory
+Added: and are not governed by a formal treasury policy adopted by our board of directors.
+Added: We may modify, expand, suspend, or discontinue such
+Added: pilot activities based on performance and risk assessment.
+Added: utilize institutional custodians and trading platforms for custody and execution, including Anchorage Digital and Coinbase Prime, and
+Added: are subject to risks associated with third-party custodians and trading venues, including cybersecurity risk, operational risk, legal
+Added: and regulatory risk, and counterparty risk.
+Added: Infrastructure
+Added: and Power Strategy
+Added: and physical infrastructure are foundational to our operating platform.
+Added: Our current compute operations are deployed primarily through
+Added: third-party colocation sites that provide access to power and the environment required to run energy-intensive compute.
+Added: evaluates opportunities to expand and, where attractive, vertically integrate upstream through acquisitions or developments involving
+Added: powered land, interconnection capacity, electrical infrastructure, or operating data-center assets.
+Added: Such opportunities may improve cost
+Added: control and strategic flexibility but can require significant capital, permitting and regulatory execution, and operational integration.
+Added: do not intend to limit our long-term opportunity set to cryptocurrency-related compute.
+Added: Management believes our experience operating
+Added: energy-intensive compute positions the Company to evaluate other compute-enabled or infrastructure-backed opportunities.
+Added: Strengths and Strategic Position
+Added: believes Datacentrex is competitively positioned within the Scrypt compute market and broader digital infrastructure landscape due to
+Added: a combination of operational execution, capital availability, and strategic relationships.
+Added: believes the Scrypt ASIC hardware market is currently highly concentrated, with a limited number of manufacturers capable of producing
+Added: Scrypt mining equipment at scale.
+Added: As a result, access to next-generation hardware may be constrained and may serve as a significant barrier
+Added: to entry for new or under-capitalized participants.
+Added: Furthermore, Datacentrex has developed long-standing commercial relationships with
+Added: leading manufacturers and suppliers of Scrypt ASIC hardware.
+Added: These relationships have historically enabled the Company to access new
+Added: generations of equipment earlier than many market participants, secure meaningful allocation during periods of constrained supply, and
+Added: deploy hardware at scale with greater predictability.
+Added: Management believes this sourcing capability represents a strategic moat, as early
+Added: access to next-generation equipment can materially affect operating economics, competitiveness, and capital efficiency in PoW compute
+Added: Notwithstanding
+Added: the foregoing, access to hardware alone is insufficient without the capital, infrastructure, and operational readiness to deploy it effectively.
+Added: Datacentrex maintains the balance-sheet capacity, hosting relationships, and internal operational systems necessary to deploy new equipment
+Added: rapidly once sourced.
+Added: The Company’s ability to fund equipment purchases, coordinate logistics, and integrate new hardware into
+Added: existing operations reduces deployment friction and shortens the time between capital commitment and revenue generation.
+Added: addition to the foregoing, Datacentrex operates a scaled fleet of Scrypt ASIC miners across multiple geographically diversified facilities.
+Added: Management believes that operating at scale improves negotiating leverage with vendors and hosting providers, supports operational learning
+Added: curves, and enables the Company to absorb variability in network conditions, power markets, and equipment performance more effectively
+Added: than smaller operators.
+Added: Datacentrex’s
+Added: compute platform, capital structure, and operational expertise provide strategic flexibility.
+Added: Management believes the Company is positioned
+Added: not only to scale Scrypt compute operations but also to evaluate acquisitions, joint ventures, or infrastructure investments that may
+Added: further enhance access to power, equipment, or operating capabilities.
+Added: compete across multiple markets, including specialized digital compute, digital asset mining, data-center infrastructure, and transaction-driven
+Added: capital deployment.
+Added: compute operators .
+Added: The Scrypt compute sector is less institutionally saturated than Bitcoin mining and is characterized by a limited
+Added: number of scaled operators.
+Added: There are few publicly traded companies operating Scrypt compute as a primary line of business.
+Added: from time to time, other entities have and may announce strategic transactions intended to establish Scrypt-focused platforms.
+Added: cryptocurrency miners and potential entrants .
+Added: We compete indirectly with large-scale cryptocurrency miners and infrastructure operators
+Added: that could allocate capital, management attention, or facility capacity into Scrypt compute or adjacent digital infrastructure.
+Added: where their existing hardware is not interchangeable with Scrypt ASICs, larger miners may have advantages in access to capital, power
+Added: procurement, facility development, operating scale, and vendor relationships.
+Added: Examples of companies that may compete with us for capital,
+Added: power, hosting capacity, hardware supply, and acquisition opportunities include (among others):
+Added: Argo Blockchain;
+Added: Cipher Mining;
+Added: Core Scientific;
+Added: Marathon Digital;
+Added: Northern Data;
+Added: Riot Platforms;
+Added: Digi Power X;
+Added: and TeraWulf.
+Added: asset treasury and yield-oriented companies .
+Added: Certain companies focus on digital asset treasury strategies or ecosystem-based yield
+Added: generation, including strategies focused on Dogecoin.
+Added: These companies generally do not operate energy-intensive compute fleets at scale.
+Added: While we do not consider these companies direct competitors with respect to our compute operations, they may compete indirectly for investor
+Added: capital or thematic exposure.
+Added: infrastructure owners and operators .
+Added: As we evaluate opportunities to acquire or develop infrastructure assets upstream, we compete
+Added: with traditional data-center developers, owners, and operators.
+Added: Competition in this segment is driven by access to power and interconnection,
+Added: speed of deployment, permitting and regulatory execution, engineering capabilities, and cost of capital.
+Added: markets and acquisition competition .
+Added: To the extent we pursue mergers, acquisitions, or strategic investments, we compete with private
+Added: equity funds, infrastructure funds, energy developers, and strategic acquirers for attractive assets.
+Added: is not positioned solely as a cryptocurrency mining company.
+Added: Management views Scrypt compute as an initial operating platform that can
+Added: generate cash flow and operational capabilities that may be leveraged across a broader strategic mandate.
+Added: intend to maintain flexibility to pursue mergers, acquisitions, asset purchases, joint ventures, and strategic investments across digital
+Added: infrastructure, compute-enabled services, energy-adjacent infrastructure, and other asset-backed operating businesses.
+Added: We may evaluate
+Added: opportunities both within and outside the digital asset ecosystem.
+Added: Management may adjust strategic focus over time in response to market
+Added: conditions, regulatory developments, capital availability, and risk-adjusted return opportunities.
+Added: Scope and Capital Allocation Boundaries
+Added: Company’s strategy is designed to preserve flexibility while maintaining discipline in capital allocation.
+Added: Although Datacentrex
+Added: currently operates a Scrypt-based compute platform, management does not view the Company as permanently constrained to any single protocol,
+Added: asset class, or operating model.
+Added: Strategic decisions, including material expansions, acquisitions, divestitures, or entry into new lines
+Added: of business, are subject to oversight by the Company’s board of directors.
+Added: While management evaluates a broad range of potential
+Added: opportunities, the Company does not intend to deploy capital indiscriminately or to pursue speculative investments unrelated to asset-backed
+Added: operating businesses.
+Added: Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that identified opportunities will be consummated or that
+Added: any strategic initiative will be successful.
+Added: Cryptocurrency
+Added: business is subject to evolving laws, regulations, and regulatory scrutiny related to digital assets, data-center and energy infrastructure,
+Added: environmental and power usage considerations, and public company disclosure and compliance obligations.
+Added: Regulatory actions, new legislation,
+Added: changes in enforcement priorities, and the interpretation of existing laws may impact our ability to operate, custody, trade, hold, or
+Added: deploy digital assets and may affect counterparties we rely upon.
+Added: on recent guidance from the SEC, we do not believe that our Scrypt-based PoW activities are subject to registration under the Securities
+Added: Act or that the primary crypto assets that we earn through our activities or otherwise acquire are “securities” within the
+Added: meaning of the Securities Act.
+Added: The tests for determining whether a particular digital asset is a “security” and whether a
+Added: particular transaction involving digital assets requires registration under the Securities Act, however, are fact-intensive, complex,
+Added: and may be difficult to apply.
+Added: If it is determined in the future that one or more digital assets in which we transact or that we hold
+Added: in our treasury is a security, or that the types of transactions we conduct or may conduct in the future require registration with the
+Added: SEC, it could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.
+Added: operations may also be affected by utility regulation, interconnection and grid constraints, demand response and curtailment programs,
+Added: environmental regulation, and permitting requirements applicable to energy-intensive operations.
+Added: does not rely on patents or licensed proprietary protocols to conduct its operations.
+Added: However, the Company has developed and maintains
+Added: proprietary internal software systems that are integral to the operation, monitoring, and management of its compute infrastructure and
+Added: related assets.
+Added: internal systems are designed to support real-time and near-real-time monitoring of site-level and fleet-level operations, including,
+Added: among other things:
+Added: miner status and uptime across facilities;
+Added: ● identifying
+Added: non-functioning or underperforming miners;
+Added: pool and marketplace connectivity and routing;
+Added: hashrate output and revenue throughput;
+Added: power usage and site-level electrical performance;
+Added: ● maintaining
+Added: inventory tracking for deployed, staged, and inactive equipment.
+Added: believes these internally developed systems improve operational responsiveness, reduce downtime, support efficient troubleshooting, and
+Added: enhance visibility into fleet performance and asset utilization.
+Added: While such software does not eliminate operational risk, it is intended
+Added: to support disciplined execution at scale.
+Added: addition, the Company relies on a combination of internally developed tools and third-party software and services for monitoring, fleet
+Added: management, cybersecurity, data aggregation, and operational administration.
+Added: Datacentrex takes steps intended to protect its internally
+Added: developed software and data through access controls and security practices, although it does not hold registered intellectual property
+Added: rights in such systems.
+Added: of April 13, 2026, we had two full-time employees, as well as nine investor relations, accounting, legal and operations independent
+Added: We are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements.
+Added: We believe that we maintain good relations with our employees.
