+Added: The Company believes
+Added: that bitcoin is attractive because it can serve as a store of value, supported by a robust and public open source architecture,
+Added: that is untethered to sovereign monetary policy and can therefore serve as a hedge against inflation.
+Added: Bitcoin exists entirely
+Added: in electronic form, as virtually irreversible public transaction ledger entries on the blockchain, and transactions in bitcoin

+Added: This decentralization

+Added: or technology-specific factors such as viruses that do not affect conventional fiat currency.

+Added: relies on open source developers to maintain and improve the bitcoin protocol.
+Added: Accordingly, bitcoin may be subject to protocol
+Added: design changes, governance disputes such as “forked”
+Added: protocols, competing protocols, and other open source-specific
+Added: risks that do not affect conventional proprietary software.
+Added: The Company believes
+Added: that in the context of the economic and public health crisis precipitated by COVID-19 and the unprecedented government financial
+Added: stimulus measures adopted around the world, decreasing interest rates, as well as the breakdown of trust in and between political
+Added: institutions and political parties in the United States and globally, bitcoin represents a more attractive store of value than

+Added: to even more widespread adoption of bitcoin as a treasury reserve alternative.

+Added: value than fiat currency, and further that opportunity for appreciation in the value of bitcoin exists in the event that such
+Added: factors lead to even more widespread adoption of bitcoin as a treasury reserve alternative.
