Current report
Our operating results are dependent on the price of Bitcoin. If prices decline, our business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Current report
Because our common stock value is closely tied to our Bitcoin holdings, significant price declines could cause holders of our common stock to lose all or substantially all of their investment.
Current report
If a third-party custodian holding our Bitcoin enters bankruptcy or similar insolvency proceedings, our digital assets could be treated as part of the custodian's insolvency estate, resulting in significant delays in recovery, partial recovery, or total loss of those assets.
Current report
Our holdings are also subject to cyberattacks, hacking, and other unauthorized access that could result in a total loss of affected assets.
Current report
We are not registered as an investment company or investment adviser. Holders of our common stock do not benefit from protections afforded to investors in registered funds or clients of registered advisers, including requirements relating to custody, diversification, leverage, and fiduciary duties.
Current report
If Bitcoin or other crypto assets we hold are determined to be securities under U.S. federal or state law, we could become subject to extensive registration, reporting, and compliance obligations, as well as potential enforcement actions, which could materially and adversely affect our business and financial condition.
Current report
Our Bitcoin treasury strategy is novel and may attract heightened scrutiny from the SEC, banking regulators, and state authorities, potentially resulting in significant compliance costs and required changes to our business strategy.
Current report
Inflation has the potential to adversely affect our liquidity, business, financial condition and results of operations by increasing our overall cost structure, particularly if we are unable to achieve commensurate increases in the prices we charge our customers. The existence of inflation in the economy has resulted in, and may continue to result in, higher interest rates and capital costs, shipping costs, supply shortages, increased costs of labor, weakening exchange rates and other similar effects. As a result of inflation, we have experienced and may continue to experience, cost increases. Although we may take measures to mitigate the impact of this inflation, if these measures are not effective our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity could be materially adversely affected. Even if such measures are effective, there could be a difference between the timing of when these beneficial actions impact our results of operations and when the cost inflation is incurred.
Current report
Our operating results are dependent on the price of Bitcoin. If prices decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition would be adversely affected.
Current report
Any declines in the volume of crypto asset transactions, the price of crypto assets, or market liquidity for crypto assets generally may adversely affect our operating results. We have significant investments in Bitcoin. Thus, changes in the value of Bitcoin will generally have a significant impact on our results. Our operating results will be impacted by the revenues and profits we generate from the purchase, sale, and trading of crypto assets.
Current report
The price of crypto assets and associated demand for buying, selling, and trading of crypto assets have historically been subject to significant volatility. Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset. The trading price of Bitcoin significantly decreased during prior periods, and such declines may occur again in the future. Such extreme fluctuations could significantly increase or reduce the value of our holdings within a short period. The price and trading volume of any crypto asset is subject to significant uncertainty and volatility, and may significantly decline in the future, without recovery. Furthermore, crypto asset prices may be subject to market manipulation or distortion, including pump-and-dump schemes, wash trading, spoofing, and front-running, particularly on unregulated exchanges. Such manipulation could significantly impact the perceived value and trading volume and undermine investor confidence in the crypto asset market, adversely affecting our business.
Current report
There is no assurance that any crypto asset will maintain its value or that there will be meaningful levels of trading activities. In the event that the price of crypto assets or the demand for trading crypto assets decline, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.
Current report
Competition from the emergence or growth of other crypto assets or the development of other methods of investing in crypto assets could have a negative impact on the price of Bitcoin and negatively affect the price of our common stock.
Current report
Bitcoin was the first digital asset to gain global adoption and critical mass, and as a result, it has a “first to market” advantage over other digital assets. As of December 31, 2025, bitcoin was the largest digital asset by market capitalization and had the largest combined mining power. As of December 31, 2025, the alternative digital assets tracked by CoinMarketCap.com, had a total market capitalization of more than $3 trillion (including the approximately $1.75 trillion market capitalization of Bitcoin), as calculated using market prices and total available supply of each digital asset. In addition, many consortiums and financial institutions are also researching and investing resources into private or permissioned smart contract platforms rather than open platforms like the Bitcoin network. Competition from the emergence or growth of alternative digital assets and smart contracts platforms, such as Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Polkadot, or Cardano, could have a negative impact on the demand for, and price of, Bitcoin and thereby adversely affect the value of our common stock.
Current report
In addition, some digital asset networks, including the Bitcoin network, may be the target of ill will from users of other digital asset networks. For example, Litecoin is the result of a hard fork of Bitcoin. Some users of the Bitcoin network may harbor ill will toward the Litecoin network, and vice versa. These users may attempt to negatively impact the use or adoption of the Bitcoin network.
Current report
The trading prices of many digital assets, including Bitcoin, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of Bitcoin, could have a material adverse effect on the value of our common stock and our common stock could lose all or substantially all of their value.
Current report
The trading prices of many digital assets, including Bitcoin, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. For instance, the average one-year trailing volatility of Bitcoin over the past ten years to date remains elevated at 78%. There were steep increases in the value of certain digital assets, including Bitcoin, over the course of 2021, and multiple market observers asserted that digital assets were experiencing a “bubble.” These increases were followed by steep drawdowns throughout 2022 in digital asset trading prices, including for bitcoin. In the 2021-2022 cycle, the price of bitcoin peaked at $67,510 and bottomed at $15,486, marking a steep 77% drawdown. These episodes of rapid price appreciation followed by steep drawdowns have occurred multiple times throughout Bitcoin’s history, including in 2011, 2013-2014, and 2017-2018, before repeating again in 2021-2022. In 2025, the average price has hovered around $101,643. Bitcoin reached an all-time high of $125,533 on October 6, 2025. However since then, Bitcoin’s price has fallen to as low as $62,181 on February 5, 2026.
Current report
The price of some digital assets, including Bitcoin, has risen following the reelection of Donald Trump as president of the United States. Industry participants generally expect the administration to continue to take a constructive approach toward the digital assets industry. Through his executive orders, President Trump has indicated that the administration will work toward providing greater regulatory clarity and certainty for emerging technologies, including blockchain technology and digital assets, thereby fostering their development. Similarly, the digital assets industry expects favorable legislation from the new U.S. Congress as certain members have expressed interest in advancing digital asset specific legislation. To the extent market expectations about future activity by the administration or Congress lead digital asset prices and valuations to increase, there can be no assurance such expectations will be fulfilled, or that digital asset prices will rise or maintain their current levels. Some commentators have referred to the digital asset market post-President Trump’s election as a bubble. There can be no assurance that such a bubble does not exist. The failure of the administration and Congress to provide greater regulatory clarity and certainty for blockchain technology and digital assets, such as through promulgating a regulatory framework governing the issuance and operation of digital assets that meets industry expectations, could lead to a decline in digital assets prices, including Bitcoin. Such a decline could cause a decline in the value of our common stock and cause our stockholders to suffer losses. Moreover, there can be no assurance that political sentiments toward the digital asset industry, or market perceptions of those sentiments, will not shift over time. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of Bitcoin, could have a material adverse effect on the value of our common stock and our common stock could lose all or substantially all of their value.
Current report
Our custodially-held crypto may become part of the custodian’s insolvency estate if one or more of our custodians enters bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings.
Current report
If our custodially-held assets are considered to be the property of our custodians’ estates in the event that any such custodians were to enter bankruptcy, receivership or similar insolvency proceedings, we could be treated as a general unsecured creditor of such custodians, inhibiting our ability to exercise ownership rights with respect to such assets and this may ultimately result in the loss of the value related to some or all of such assets. A series of recent high-profile bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions and other events relating to companies operating in the digital asset industry, including the filings for bankruptcy protection by Three Arrows Capital, Celsius Network, Voyager Digital, FTX Trading and Genesis Global Capital, the closure or liquidation of certain financial institutions that provided lending and other services to the digital assets industry, including Signature Bank and Silvergate Bank, SEC enforcement actions against Coinbase, Inc. and Binance Holdings Ltd., the placement of Prime Trust, LLC into receivership following a cease-and-desist order issued by Nevada’s Department of Business and Industry, and the filing and subsequent settlement of a civil fraud lawsuit by the New York Attorney General against Genesis Global Capital, its parent company Digital Currency Group, Inc., and former partner Gemini Trust Company, have highlighted the counterparty risks applicable to owning and transacting in digital assets. Although these bankruptcies, closures, liquidations and other events have not resulted in any loss or misappropriation of our crypto, nor have such events adversely impacted our access to our crypto, they have, in the short-term, likely negatively impacted the adoption rate and use of crypto. Additional bankruptcies, closures, liquidations, regulatory enforcement actions or other events involving participants in the digital assets industry in the future may further negatively impact the adoption rate, price, and use of crypto, limit the availability to us of financing collateralized by crypto, or create or expose additional counterparty risks. Any loss associated with such insolvency proceedings is unlikely to be covered by any insurance coverage we maintain related to our assets. Even if we are able to prevent our assets from being considered the property of a custodian’s bankruptcy estate as part of an insolvency proceeding, it is possible that we would still be delayed or may otherwise experience difficulty in accessing our assets held by the affected custodian during the pendency of the insolvency proceedings. Any such outcome could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the market price of our common stock.
Current report
We hold a substantial amount of Bitcoin with regulated custodians that have duties to safeguard our private keys. The insurance that covers losses of our Bitcoin holdings covers only a small fraction of the value of the entirety of our Bitcoin holdings, and there can be no guarantee that such insurance will be maintained as part of the custodial services we have or that such coverage will cover losses with respect to our Bitcoin.
Current report
We are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers or other regulated entities.
Current report
Mutual funds and other registered investment companies are subject to extensive federal regulation as “investment companies” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). Additionally, firms that manage the assets of registered investment companies generally must register as “investment advisers” under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). These regulatory regimes impose stringent requirements relating to custody of assets, restrictions on transactions with affiliated parties, limits on investment activities, mandated governance structures, and detailed disclosure obligations designed to protect investors.
Current report
We are not an investment company and do not manage third-party assets. Therefore, we are neither registered nor required to register as an investment company or investment adviser. Although our key treasury reserve assets are crypto assets and we engage in activities such as staking, we conduct these activities solely for our own corporate treasury management and not on behalf of external investors. Consequently, our operations involving Bitcoin, including custody arrangements, transactions with affiliates, investment decisions, and general business practices, are not subject to the extensive regulatory framework applicable to mutual funds and registered investment advisers. Investors in our company therefore do not benefit from the heightened protections provided under the Investment Company Act or the Investment Advisers Act.
Current report
For example, although significant changes to our crypto asset strategy require approval by our Board of Directors, these changes do not necessitate stockholder votes or regulatory approvals mandated for registered investment companies. As a result, our Board of Directors retains broad discretion regarding investment and cash management policies, including the authority to modify, suspend, or expand our strategy of acquiring, holding, or staking crypto assets, without being subject to regulatory procedures applicable to investment companies.
Current report
If crypto assets held by the Company are determined to be securities under U.S. federal or state law, the Company would become subject to significant regulatory burdens, which may materially and adversely affect its business, operations, and financial condition.
Current report
The legal characterization of crypto assets under U.S. securities laws remains unsettled and continues to evolve. If the SEC, another federal agency, or a state regulator determines that Bitcoin or any other crypto asset held by the Company constitutes a security under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Investment Company Act, the Company could become subject to extensive regulatory obligations. These obligations may include registration requirements, enhanced disclosure and reporting, restrictions on business activities, and compliance with corporate governance and custody standards.
Current report
The SEC has taken the position that certain crypto assets, depending on their characteristics, method of distribution, and functional use, may be classified as investment contracts or otherwise fall within the definition of a “security.” Although we do not believe that our current activities involve investment securities or cause us to be an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, there can be no assurance that regulators will agree with our assessment, particularly as new guidance, enforcement actions, or legal precedents develop.
Current report
If the Company were required to register as an investment company, or if the crypto assets it holds were deemed to be unregistered securities, we could be forced to significantly alter, limit, or cease certain operations, including staking or other network participation activities. In such a scenario, the Company may also become subject to enforcement actions, penalties, or other remedial measures, any of which could result in reputational harm, legal liability, or the inability to continue its current business model. In addition to federal law, the Company may be subject to regulation under state securities laws, some of which apply broader definitions of a “security” than those used by the SEC. As a result, the Company could face additional regulatory scrutiny, registration requirements, or enforcement exposure at the state level, even if federal regulators do not classify its crypto assets as securities.
Current report
Regulatory uncertainty surrounding the classification of crypto assets presents a continuing risk to the Company’s operations. Any determination that the crypto assets held or activities conducted by the Company fall within the scope of U.S. securities laws could impose significant costs, create legal obstacles to continued operations, or materially impair the value of the Company’s assets and the returns available to its investors. If we decide to cease certain operations in response to new regulatory obligations, such actions could occur at a time that is unfavorable to investors.
Current report
In addition, there has been increasing focus on the extent to which digital assets can be used to launder the proceeds of illegal activities, fund criminal or terrorist activities, or circumvent sanctions regimes, including those sanctions imposed in response to the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine. While we have implemented and maintain policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable anti-money laundering and sanctions laws and regulations and take care to only acquire our crypto through entities subject to anti-money laundering regulation and related compliance rules in the United States, if we are found to have purchased any of our Bitcoin from bad actors that have used crypto to launder money or persons subject to sanctions, we may be subject to regulatory proceedings and any further transactions or dealings in crypto by us may be restricted or prohibited.
Current report
We may consider issuing debt or other financial instruments that may be collateralized by our crypto holdings. We may also consider pursuing strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our crypto holdings. These types of crypto-related transactions are the subject of enhanced regulatory oversight. These and any other crypto-related transactions we may enter into, beyond simply acquiring and holding crypto, may subject us to additional regulatory compliance requirements and scrutiny, including under federal and state money services regulations, money transmitter licensing requirements and various commodity and securities laws and regulations. Changes in the regulatory environment, including changing interpretations and the implementation of new or varying regulatory requirements by the government or any new legislation affecting crypto, as well as enforcement actions involving or impacting our trading venues, counterparties and custodians, may impose significant costs or significantly limit our ability to hold and transact in crypto.

Risks Relating to Our Cryptocurrency Mining Business
Previous report
We have exposure to pricing risk and volatility associated with the value of Bitcoin because we do not currently hedge our investment in Bitcoin.
Previous report
We face risks from potential failures of digital asset exchanges and custodians.
Previous report
Any future issuance of preferred stock may adversely affect holders of our common stock.
Previous report
We may become subject to a threatened direct or derivative claim by stockholders.
Previous report
Digital asset exchanges on which cryptocurrencies trade are relatively new and, in most cases, largely unregulated. Many digital exchanges do not provide the public with significant information regarding their ownership structure, management teams, corporate practices or regulatory compliance. As a result, the marketplace may lose confidence in, or may experience problems relating to, cryptocurrency exchanges, including prominent exchanges handling a significant portion of the volume of digital asset trading.
Previous report
Finally, with the change in presidential administration in 2025, there is substantial uncertainty as to how, if at all, the new administration will seek to modify or revise the requirements and policies governing Bitcoin mining and cryptocurrency generally.
Previous report
The impending uncertainty could present new challenges or potential opportunities as we navigate continue to develop and grow our Bitcoin mining business.
Previous report
Any of the foregoing could result in a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Previous report
The Company was unable to regain compliance with the bid price requirement by October 11, 2023. However, on October 12, 2023, the Company received a notice from Nasdaq granting the Company an additional 180 calendar days, or until April 8, 2024, to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq determined that the Company is eligible for the second compliance period due to the Company meeting the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and the Company’s written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary.
Previous report
On March 7, 2024, we filed an Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to effect a one-for-six reverse stock split of our common stock which became effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern time, on March 12, 2024. The Reverse Split was effected with the intent to satisfy the minimum bid price requirements and, on March 26, 2024, we received written notification from Nasdaq indicating that the Company’s common stock had a closing price of $1.00 per share or greater for the last ten consecutive business days, from March 12, 2024 to March 25, 2024, and that, as a result, the Company has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirements and that the matter is now closed.

Previous wording
There are a small number of major suppliers of Bitcoin minors globally, and Bitcoin mining manufacturing is located primarily in China, including Bitmain, the primary supplier of our Bitcoin miners. If we, or our customers, were unable to source Miners from those suppliers (for example due to overwhelming global demand for Bitcoin miners, or due to geopolitical tensions, or war) at a commercial price, or at all, this would have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Even if the suppliers have agreed to supply us with miners, they may fail to supply the Bitcoin miners due to their inability to manufacture sufficient Bitcoin miners due to a shortage of components or resources such as semiconductors, a default, insolvency, a change in control, or change of laws (including export/import restrictions, quotas or tariffs).

As part of the build out of our cryptocurrency mining operations, we have engaged several companies to host our machines at various cryptocurrency mining facilities (or sites). Actually securing these sites on terms acceptable to our management team may not occur within our timing expectations or at all. Although we have entered into agreements with Core to provide hosting services, our inability to secure sites for our Bitcoin miners could adversely impact the anticipated timing of our buildout phase and therefore the time by which we are able to expand our operations.

Furthermore, such reductions in Bitcoin rewards for uncovering blocks may result in a reduction in the aggregate hashrate of the Bitcoin network as the incentive for miners decreases. Miners ceasing operations would reduce the collective processing power on the network, which would adversely affect the confirmation process for transactions and make the Bitcoin network more vulnerable to malicious actors or botnets obtaining control in excess of 50 % of the processing power active on the blockchain. Such events may adversely affect our activities and an investment in us.

Given the political significance and uncertainty around the impact of climate change and how it should be addressed, and energy disclosure and use regulations, we cannot predict how legislation and regulation will affect our financial condition and results of operations in the future in the United States and the State of Oklahoma. Further, even without such regulation, increased awareness and any adverse publicity in the global marketplace about potential impacts on climate change or energy use by us or other companies in our industry could harm our reputation.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (2010), or Dodd-Frank Act, represents a comprehensive overhaul of the financial services industry within the U.S. The Dodd-Frank Act allows consumers free access to their credit score if their score negatively affects them in a financial transaction or a hiring decision, and also gives consumers access to credit score disclosures as part of an adverse action and risk-based pricing notice. Title X of the Dodd-Frank Act establishes the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, or CFPB, within the Federal Reserve Board, and requires the CFPB and other federal agencies to implement many new and significant rules and regulations. Significant portions of the Dodd-Frank Act related to the CFPB became effective on July 21, 2011. The CFPB has broad powers to promulgate, administer and enforce consumer financial regulations, including those applicable to us and possibly our funded Associations. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFPB is the principal supervisor and enforcer of federal consumer financial protection laws with respect to nondepository institutions, or “nonbanks”, including, without limitation, any

Even though we have regained compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s minimum closing bid price requirement, there is no guarantee that we will remain in compliance with such listing requirements or other listing requirements in the future. Any failure to maintain compliance with continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market could result in delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market and negatively impact our company and holders of our common stock, including by reducing the willingness of investors to hold our common stock because of the resulting decreased price, liquidity and trading of our common stock, limited availability of price quotations and reduced news and analyst coverage. Delisting may adversely impact the perception of our financial condition, cause reputational harm with investors, our employees and parties conducting business with us and limit our access to debt and equity financing.

We could also be required to restate financial statements for prior periods. If we are unable to assert that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an unqualified opinion as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected and we could become subject to private litigation or to investigations or enforcement actions by the SEC or other regulatory authorities, all of which could require our expenditure of additional financial and management resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Those adverse consequences could be more severe if we are forced to effect any financial statement restatements.
