CAUTIONARY NOTE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report on Form 20-F (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the reasons described in our “Business,” “Risk Factors,” and “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result of Operations” sections, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Report. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “depends,” “estimate,” “expects,” “intend,” “may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would” or the negative of those terms or other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain those words.

Our operations and business prospects are always subject to risks and uncertainties including, among others:

●Our ability to secure enterprise clients and deals in the face of growing competition;
●Assumptions relating to the size of the market for our products and services;
●Unanticipated regulations of cryptocurrencies that add barriers to adoption and have a negative effect on our business;
●Our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products; and
●Our estimates of expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and our needs for, or ability to obtain, additional financing.

The forward-looking statements in this Report represent our views as of the date of this Report. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention to do so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Report.

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “our company,” “the Company” or similar terminology refer to BTC Digital Ltd., including its consolidated subsidiaries.

MARKET DATA AND FORECASTS

This annual report also contains data related to global cryptocurrency market that include projections based on a number of assumptions. The global cryptocurrency market may not grow at the rates projected by market data, or at all. The failure of the global cryptocurrency market to grow at the projected rates may have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, results of operations and the market price of our ordinary shares. In addition, the relatively new and rapidly changing nature of the global cryptocurrency market subjects any projections or estimates relating to the growth prospects or future condition of these markets to significant uncertainties. If any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data turns out to be incorrect, actual results may differ from the projections based on these assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
