 acquire new more effective and energy-efficient miners, both to replace
those lost to ordinary wear-and-tear and other damage, and to increase our hash rate to keep up with a growing global network hash rate.

These
new miners are highly specialized servers that are difficult to produce at scale. As a result, there are limited producers capable of
supplying large numbers of sufficiently effective miners, and, as demand for new miners has increased, and will likely continue to increase,
in response to increased Bitcoin prices, we have observed that the price of these new miners has also increased. If we are unable to
acquire enough new miners or otherwise access sufficient capital to fund acquisitions to grow our hash rate, our results of operations
and financial condition could be adversely affected, as could investments in our securities.

Bitcoin
is programmatically subject to “Halving,” meaning that the Bitcoin rewarded for solving a block will be reduced in the future
and its value may not commensurately adjust to compensate us for such reductions.

Bitcoin
is subject to Halving, which is the process by which the Bitcoin reward for solving a block is reduced by 50% for every 210,000 blocks
that are solved. This Halving occurs approximately every 4 years and means that the amount of Bitcoin we (or any other miner) are rewarded
for solving a block in the Blockchain is permanently cut in half. For example, the last Halving occurred in April 2024, with a revised
payout of 3.125 Bitcoin per block solved, down from the previous reward rate of 6.25 Bitcoin per block solved. There can be no assurance
that the price of Bitcoin will sufficiently increase to justify the increasingly high costs of mining for Bitcoin given the Halving feature.
If a corresponding and proportionate increase in the trading price of Bitcoin does not follow these anticipated Halving events, the revenue
we earn from our mining operations would see a corresponding decrease, which would have a material adverse effect on our business and
operations. To illustrate, even if the price of Bitcoin remains at its price as of today, all other factors being equal (including the
same number of miners and a stable hash rate) our revenue would decrease substantially upon the next Halving.

Further,
due to the Halving process, unless the underlying code of the Bitcoin Blockchain is altered (which may be unlikely or difficult given
its decentralized nature), the supply of Bitcoin is finite, as detailed in the risk factor above. For the foregoing reasons, the
