NOTES
TO CONDEDSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS
Business
Next Technology Holdings Inc (formerly known
as WeTrade Group, Inc) was incorporated in the State of Wyoming on March 28, 2019. We currently pursue two corporate strategies. One
business strategy is to continue providing software development services, and the other strategy is to acquire and hold bitcoin.
Software development
We provide AI-enabled software development
services to our customers, which include developing, designing, and implementing various SAAS software solutions for businesses of all
types, including industrial and other businesses.
Bitcoin Acquisition Strategy
Our bitcoin acquisition strategy generally involves
acquiring bitcoin with our liquid assets that exceed working capital requirements, and from time to time, subject to market conditions,
issuing debt or equity securities or engaging in other capital raising transactions with the objective of using the proceeds to purchase
bitcoin.
We view our bitcoin holdings as long-term holdings
and expect to continue to accumulate bitcoin. We have not set any specific target for the amount of bitcoin we seek to hold, and we will
continue to monitor market conditions in determining whether to engage in additional financings to purchase additional bitcoin.
This overall strategy also contemplates that
we may (i) periodically sell bitcoin for general corporate purposes, including to generate cash for treasury management or in connection
with strategies that generate tax benefits in accordance with applicable law, (ii) enter into additional capital raising transactions
that are collateralized by our bitcoin holdings, and (iii) consider pursuing additional strategies to create income streams or otherwise
generate funds using our bitcoin holdings.
We believe that, due to its limited supply, bitcoin
offers the opportunity for appreciation in value if its adoption increases and has the potential to serve as a hedge against inflation
in the long-term.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant
inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements
of the Company as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(including normal recurring adjustments) that have been made are necessary to fairly present the financial position of the Company as
of March 31, 2024, the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, and its cash flows for the three
months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Operating results for the quarterly periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for a full fiscal year.
The statements and related notes have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and other information included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.
7
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of Accounting
Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts . ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise
judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying
our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price
to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies
the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for
the services it transfers to its clients.
Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets, which establishes
accounting guidance for crypto assets meeting certain criteria. Bitcoin meets these criteria. The amendments require crypto assets to
meet the criteria to be recognized at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. Upon adoption, a cumulative-effect
adjustment is made to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual reporting period of adoption. ASU 2023-08
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption
is permitted. The Company has early applied ASU 2023-08 and measured crypto assets (presented as digital assets) at fair value with changes
recognized in net income this year.
The following table summarizes the Company’s
digital asset holdings as of:

$ 10,147,576
As
of March 31, 2024, approximately 833 of the bitcoins held by the Company, which had a carrying value of approximately $ 59.2 million on
the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2024.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt
instruments purchased with a maturity period of three months or less to be cash or cash equivalents. The carrying amounts reported in
the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximate their fair value. All of the
Company’s cash that is held in bank accounts in Hong Kong and PRC are not protected by Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
insurance.
Foreign Currency
The Company’s principal country of operations
is the PRC. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in US$. The functional currency of the Company
is US$, and the functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries is RMB. The condensed consolidated financial statements are translated
into US$ from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital
accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The resulting translation adjustments
are recorded as a component of shareholders’ equity included in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency
transactions are included in profit or loss. There were no gains and losses from foreign currency transactions from the inception to
March 31, 2024.
March 31,
2024
December 31,
2023
RMB: US$ exchange rate
7.22
7.09
The balance sheet amounts, with the exception
of equity, as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were translated at 7.22 RMB and 7.09 RMB to US$ 1.00 , respectively. The equity accounts
were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to statements of operations and comprehensive income accounts
for the period ended March 31, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023 were 7.18 RMB and 7.08 RMB to US$ 1.00 , respectively. Cash flows
were also translated at average translation rates for the period and, therefore, amounts reported on the statement of cash flows
would not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Consolidation
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial
statements include the financial statements of the Group and subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among the Group and its subsidiaries
have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgement estimates and assumptions that affect
the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates
used in preparing the financial statements are reasonable and prudent; however, actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant
accounting estimates include the allowance for expected credit loss, valuation of deferred tax assets, and certain accrued liabilities
such as contingent liabilities.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts
receivables are presented net of allowance for expected credit loss. The Company uses specific identification in providing for bad debts
when facts and circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful and based on factors listed in the following paragraph. If the financial
conditions of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowance may
be required.
The
Company maintains an allowance for expected credit loss which reflects its best estimate of amounts that potentially will not be collected.
The Company determines the allowance for expected credit loss on general basis taking into consideration various factors including but
not limited to historical collection experience and credit-worthiness of the customers as well as the age of the individual receivables
balance. Additionally, the Company makes specific bad debt provisions based on any specific knowledge the Company has acquired that might
indicate that an account is uncollectible. The facts and circumstances of each account may require the Company to use substantial judgment
in assessing its collectability.
9
Leases
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update
No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), and generally requires lessees to recognize operating and financing lease liabilities
and corresponding right-of-use (ROU) assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and
uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements.
Operating leases are included in operating lease
right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and short-term and long-term lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated
balance sheets.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right
to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising
from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments
over the lease term. As most of the leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use the industry incremental borrowing rate based on the
information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily
determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms may
include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease
payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
ASU 2016-02 requires that public companies use
a secured incremental browning rate for the present value of lease payments when the rate implicit in the contract is not readily determinable.
We determine a secured rate on a quarterly basis and update the weighted average discount rate accordingly.
Software Development Costs
We apply ASC 985-20, Software—Costs of
Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, in analyzing our software development costs. ASC 985-20 requires the capitalization of certain
software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility for a software product in development. Research
and development costs associated with establishing technological feasibility are expensed as incurred. Based on our software development
process, technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. In addition, we apply this to our review of
development projects related to software used exclusively for our SaaS subscription offerings. In these reviews, all costs incurred during
the preliminary project stages are expensed as incurred. Once the projects have been committed to and it is probable that the projects
will meet functional requirements, costs are capitalized.
10
Income Tax
Income taxes are determined in accordance with
the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC Topic 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for
how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected
to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely
than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently
be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with

Earnings
/ (Loss) Per Share
Earnings/(Loss) per share of common stock attributable
to common stockholders is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average shares of common
stock outstanding for the period. Potentially dilutive shares, which are based on the weighted-average shares of common stock underlying
outstanding stock-based awards, warrants, options, or convertible debt using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, as
applicable, are included when calculating diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock attributable to common stockholders when
their effect is dilutive.
Potential dilutive securities are excluded from
the calculation of diluted EPS in profit periods as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
As of March 31, 2024, there were no potentially
dilutive shares.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows guidance for accounting for
fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are
recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for
fair value measurement related to non-financial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on
a non-recurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value.
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving
significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted)
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the
asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity
of these instruments.

As previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filed
on September 28, 2023, the Company entered into a BTC Trading Contract (the “BTC Contract”) with an autonomous organization
(the “Association Seller”), which supports its members in the sale of BTC. While the Association Seller provides services
to facilitate the sale of BTC by its members, it does not exert control over them by ownership or contract, nor does it make decisions
for its members relating to the sale of BTC. None of the members of the Association Seller hold equity, serve as director or officer,
or otherwise has voting power or management rights of the Association Seller.
Under the BTC Contract, the Company has the
right to purchase up to 6,000 BTC from the members of the Association Seller (each, a “BTC Seller”) through the Association
Seller at a locked price of $30,000/BTC over a 12-month period commencing on September 25, 2023, with payment to be made in the form
of cash or the Company’s shares. Although the BTC Contract states that the Association Seller (Party B) “owns the virtual
currency”, to our knowledge, this statement was mistakenly made. As of the date of the BTC Contract, it were the individual members
of the Association Seller, not the Association Seller itself, who own the BTC to be sold under the BTC Contract. We believe the Association
Seller will coordinate with its members to fulfill the Company’s purchase of BTC, however, we cannot guarantee that the Company
will be able to purchase BTC from the BTC Sellers. The BTC Contract was entered into solely between the Company and the Association Seller
and no BTC Sellers owe any legal obligation to the Company in connection with the purchase and sale of BTC.
Following the execution of the BTC Contract, the Company
purchased 833 BTC from the BTC Sellers and decided to purchase an additional 1,000 BTC (the “1,000 BTC Purchase”). As of
December 31, 2023, the Company made a prepayment to the BTC Sellers through the Association Seller of approximately $ 12,125,500 (the
“Prepayment Amount”), representing 40 % of the total purchase price for 1000 BTC. The prepayment was made to secure favorable
pricing and demonstrate the Company’s commitment to completing the 1,000 BTC Purchase. This prepayment is refundable if the 1,000
BTC Purchase is not completed.
While negotiating the terms of the 1,000 BTC Purchase with the BTC Sellers, the Company decided to exercise
its right under the BTC Contract to purchase 5,000 BTC (the “5,000 BTC Purchase”), which includes the previously planned
1,000 BTC. To reflect the then price increase in BTC and finalize the transaction details of the 5,000 BTC Purchase, the Company and
the Association Seller entered into that certain Amendment Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”) on May 2, 2024, which was
previously disclosed in a Form 8-K filed by the Company on May 6, 2024.
According to the Amendment Agreement, the Company agreed
to pay the aggregate price for the 5,000 BTC through the issuance of 40,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common
Stock”) valued at $ 3.75 per share, which was the closing market price of the Common Stock as of May 1, 2024 (the “Then FMV”)
and warrants to purchase 80,000,000 shares of the Common Stock with the exercise price of $ 2.6 per share (equal to 70 % of the Then FMV).
In connection with the 5,000 BTC Purchase, on May 8, 2024, the Company filed a Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C (the
“Preliminary 14C”). Subsequently, the Company decided to cease pursuing the 5,000 BTC Purchase due to the market fluctuations
in BTC and further discussions with the BTC Sellers, which was previously disclosed on a Form 8-K filed by the Company on June 26, 2024.
Despite the cancellation of the 5,000 BTC Purchase, negotiations regarding
the original 1,000 BTC Purchase continued. The Company’s original plan was to settle the remaining 60% of the total purchase price
for 1,000 BTC through the issuance of the Common Stock at a per share price based on the average market price over a five-day period
immediately prior to the date of the completion of the 1,000 BTC Purchase. However, the Board believed in the potential long-term appreciation
of the BTC. As a result, it has decided to halt the 1,000 BTC Purchase and instead re-negotiate the terms with the Associate Seller to
acquire 5,167 BTC, which represents the maximum number of BTC that the Company was entitled to purchase under the BTC Contract minus
the BTC already acquired under the BTC Contract.

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Acquisition of Company
On
March 1,2024, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain existing shareholders
(the “Sellers”) of Future Dao Group Holding Limited, an exempted company incorporated and existing under the laws of the
Cayman Islands(the “Target”),pursuant to which the Company agrees to purchase from the Sellers indirectly through Next Investment
Group Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Next Investment”), and the Sellers agree to sell to Next Investment,
an aggregate of 2,000 ordinary shares (the “Purchased Shares”) of the Target (the “Transaction”) at a per share
purchase price of $ 6,698 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $ 13,396,000 (the “Purchase Price”). Pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Transaction, the Company will pay the Purchase Price by issuing to the Sellers an aggregate
of 3,940,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Next Technology Common Stock”) based on an agreed-upon valuation
of $ 3.40 per share (the “Per Share Price”). The Per Share Price is above $ 3.19 , which is the average price per share of the
shares of common stock of the Company traded on Nasdaq Capital Market in the five trading days prior to the signing date of the Purchase
Agreement. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, each Seller will receive its portion of the Company’s Common Stock proportionate
to the number of the Purchased Shares to be sold by such Seller to Next Investment under the Purchase Agreement, the transaction has
been completed in end of April 2024.
Change of Company name
Effective
April 2, 2024, the Company has changed its name to Next Technology Holdings Inc. The name change was made pursuant to the Wyoming Business
Corporations Act, and an amendment to Article I of the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation was filed with
the Wyoming Secretary of State on March 18, 2024 (Amendment ID: 2024-004669585).
Our common stock will continue to trade on the
NASDAQ Stock Market under the ticker symbol “NXTT”. Outstanding stock certificates for shares of the company are not affected
by the name change. They continue to be valid and need not be exchanged.
Amended
and Restated BTC Trading Contract
On September 24, 2024, the Company and the
Association Seller entered into an Amended and Restated BTC Trading Contract (the “Amended BTC Contract”), which amended
and restated the BTC Contract. Under the Amended BTC Contract, the Company is entitled to purchase up to 5,167 BTC (the “Total
BTC”) from the BTC sellers set forth on Schedule I to the Amended BTC Contract (the “Schedule I BTC Sellers”) through
the Association Seller at a purchase price of US$30,000 per BTC (subject to an additional purchase price by issuance of warrants to purchase
shares of Common Stock at a nominal exercise price as described below) over a 12-month period commencing on the date of the Amended BTC
Contract. The purchase price for the Total BTC will be paid by the Company in cash or shares of Common Stock. Although the Amended BTC
Contract states that the Association Seller (Party B) “owns the virtual currency”, to our knowledge, this statement was mistakenly
made. As of the date of the Amended BTC Contract, it were the Schedule I BTC Sellers who are the individual members of the Association
Seller, not the Association Seller itself, who own the BTC to be sold under the Amended BTC Contract.
To our knowledge, the Association Seller entered
into a cooperation agreement with each Schedule I BTC Sellers (the “Cooperation Agreement”) on the same day when the Amended
BTC Contract was entered. Under the Cooperation Agreement, each Schedule I BTC Seller agrees to transfer a specified number of BTC (as
set forth in the Cooperation Agreement) to a BTC wallet address designated by the Association Seller for the transactions contemplated
under the Amended BTC Contract.
While we believe the Association Seller will
be able to coordinate with its members to fulfill the Company’s purchase of BTC if the Company so decides, we cannot guarantee
that the Company will successfully acquire BTC pursuant to the Amended BTC Contract. The Amended BTC Contract was entered into solely
between the Company and the Association Seller and no Schedule I BTC Sellers owe any legal obligation to the Company in connection with
the purchase and sale of BTC. Furthermore, as the Company is not a party to the Cooperation Agreement, it cannot enforce the terms of
the Cooperation Agreement against any Schedule I BTC Sellers should such Schedule I BTC Sellers do not perform their obligations under
the Cooperation Agreement. For example, if a Schedule I BTC Seller does not transfer its committed BTC to the Association Seller pursuant
to the Cooperation Agreement, we may not be able to purchase such BTC from the Association Seller pursuant to the Amended BTC Contract.
17
At
the time when the Amended BTC Contract was signed, the Company indicated its intent to exercise the option to purchase 5,000 BTC out
of the Total BTC pursuant to the Amended BTC Contract (the “Amended 5,000 BTC Transaction”). According to the terms of the
Amended BTC Contract, the previously-made Prepayment Amount will be applied towards the total purchase price for the Amended 5,000 BTC
Transaction and the Company will pay the remaining balance through (i) the issuance of 135,171,078 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”)
valued at $ 1.02 per share and (ii) the issuance of warrants to purchase 294,117,647 shares of Common Stock at a nominal exercise price
(the “Warrants”).
The
value of $ 1.02 per share for the Shares is equal to the sum of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately
preceding the signing of the Amended BTC Contract, and (ii) $ 0.01 . Using the same per value valuation, the warrants are worth approximately
$ 300,000,000 .
Pursuant to the Amended BTC Contract, the Company shall exercise its
option to purchase BTC thereunder prior to September 24, 2025. While the Company’s purchase option thereunder is time-limited, the
Amended BTC Contract itself will remain in effect without a defined expiration date, unless otherwise terminated. In the event of a breach by either party, the non-breaching party has the right
to terminate the agreement. In such case, the breaching party will be obligated to pay a penalty of $ 18,000,000 to the non-breaching
party.
The
above description of the Amended BTC Contract does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Amended BTC Contract, a copy of which is attached to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1, filed
with the SEC on September 27, 2024, which is incorporated by reference herein.
Impact
on Company’s Capitalization and Stockholder Approval
The
issuance of securities pursuant to the Amended BTC Contract will not affect the rights of the Company’s existing stockholders,
but such issuances will have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders, including the voting power of
the existing stockholders.
As of the date of this report, there were
6,976,410 issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock. Immediately after the issuance of the Shares (assuming no exercise of the
Warrants), there will be 142,147,488 issued and outstanding shares of the Common Stock, and the ownership percentage of the Company’s
existing stockholders in the Company will be diluted to approximately 4.91 %. Assuming full exercise of the Warrants concurrently with
the issuance of the Shares, immediately after the issuance of the Shares, there will be 436,265,135 issued and outstanding shares of
Common Stock, and the ownership percentage of the Company’s existing stockholders in the Company will be further diluted to approximately
1.60 %.
Pursuant
to Nasdaq Rule 5635(a), if an issuer intends to issue common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, in
connection with the acquisition of stock or assets of another company, which may equal or exceed 20 % of the outstanding common stock
or voting power on a pre-transaction basis, the issuer generally must obtain the prior approval of its stockholders. Pursuant to Nasdaq
Rule 5635(d), if an issuer intends to issue common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, other than in
a public offering, which may equal or exceed 20 % of the outstanding common stock or voting power on a pre-transaction basis for a price
that is lower than (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) immediately preceding the signing of a binding
agreement; or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock (as reflected on Nasdaq.com) for the five trading days
immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for such common stock, the issuer generally must obtain the prior approval
of its stockholders.
The
Shares to be issued to the Schedule I BTC Sellers in the Amended 5,000 BTC Transaction exceeds the threshold for which stockholder
approval is required under Nasdaq Rule 5635(a), and the Warrant Shares to be issued to the Schedule I BTC Sellers upon the full
exercise of the Warrants could result in the issuance of a number of shares exceeding the threshold and pricing for which
stockholder approval is required under Nasdaq 5635(d). As such, the Company is required to obtain requisite stockholder approval for
the Amended 5,000 BTC Transaction.
As
disclosed in a Preliminary Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed by the Company on October 3, 2024, the Company has obtained the
requisite stockholder approval for the Amended 5,000 BTC Transaction in accordance with the Company’s articles of incorporation
and bylaws on September 24, 2024.
