 Halving
feature exposes us to inherent uncertainty and reliance upon the historically volatile price of Bitcoin, rendering an investment in us
particularly speculative, especially in the long-term.

We
are subject to risks associated with our need for significant electrical power, with that risk heightened as we are currently supplied
electrical power by a sole source provider.

Our
Bitcoin mining operations have required significant amounts of electrical power, and, to the extent we purchase additional miners or
acquire new miners which require higher energy inputs, our electricity requirements would grow. If we are unable to continue to obtain
sufficient electrical power to operate our miners on a cost-effective basis, we may not realize the anticipated benefits of our capital
investments in our miners. Even at our current energy usage, there can be no guarantee that our operational costs will not increase in
the future. Additionally, our mining operations could be materially adversely affected by prolonged power outages, and we may have to
reduce or cease our operations in the event of an extended power outage, or as a result of the unavailability or increased cost of electrical
power.

The
foregoing risk is heightened as a result of our reliance on a sole source provider of electrical power. We are dependent on the sole
host of our power supply in Northern Europe who provides our power generation through hydroelectric sources. While our relationship with
our sole power supplier is good, and while we generally have sufficient supply to conduct our business operations as presently contemplated,
since the beginning of 2024, our power supply has been curtailed by up to approximately 60% as a direct result of low water levels that
have cutback local hydroelectric power capacity. We believe the potential adverse effect of the power supply curtailment and our reliance
on a sole power supplier was mitigated in large part due to our decision to curtail our Bitcoin mining operations (and, in turn, our
electrical usage) until we could mine on a cost-effective basis. Thus, while the power supply curtailment has not yet had an adverse
effect on our business, if Bitcoin market conditions become more favorable and cost-effective and we determine to ramp our mining operations
back to their full capacity and the power supply curtailment continues or our sole provider raises its prices or cannot meet our needs,
our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and investors in our securities could be harmed.

Climate
change, and the regulatory and legislative developments related to climate change, may materially adversely affect our business and
