**PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT**

**(To the Prospectus Dated October 4, 2024)**

**Up to $225,000,000 shares of Common Stock**

![](logo_001.jpg)

We entered into an At-The-Market Offering Agreement on September 14, 2021 (the "Offering Agreement") with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC, as sales agent (the "Agent" or "Wainwright"), relating to shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. In accordance with the terms of the Offering Agreement, we may offer and sell shares of our Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $225,000,000 from time to time through the Agent.

Our Common Stock is traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "BTCS." On July 7, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market was $2.80 per share.

Sales of our Common Stock, if any, under this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus may be made by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), including without limitation sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market, the trading market for our Common Stock, or any other existing trading market in the United States for the Common Stock, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, directly to the Agent as principal in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or in any other method permitted by law. The Agent is not required to sell any certain number of shares or dollar amount of our Common Stock, but will act as a sales agent and use commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf all of the shares of Common Stock requested to be sold by us, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, subject to the terms of the Offering Agreement.

Under the terms of the Offering Agreement, the Agent will be entitled to compensation of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sales of shares of Common Stock sold by it. In connection with the sale of shares of our Common Stock on our behalf, the Agent may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of the Agent may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. Please see "Plan of Distribution" on page S-8 for further information relating to the compensation arrangements with the Agent.

There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

**Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Please read "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-6 of this prospectus supplement, and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement.**

**Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.**

**H.C. Wainwright & Co.**

**The date of this prospectus supplement is July 8, 2025**

You should read this summary together with the entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including our financial statements, the notes to those financial statements and the other documents that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, before making an investment decision.

**Our Company**

BTCS Inc. ("BTCS" or the "Company"), a Nevada corporation listed on Nasdaq, focused on blockchain infrastructure, with its primary operations currently centered on the Ethereum network. Our core focus is on driving scalable growth through a diverse range of blockchain-focused technological solutions, emphasizing Ethereum infrastructure, including block-building and validator node operations.

<u>Blockchain Infrastructure</u>

BTCS's core business centers on its blockchain infrastructure, which supports the validation of transactions and security of multiple proof-of-stake (PoS) and delegated proof-of-stake (dPoS) blockchain networks. The Company manages a network of cloud-based validator nodes, which play a key role in network consensus by performing transaction validation ("attestation") activities and proposing new blocks. Through these activities, BTCS earns native token rewards by staking its own crypto assets on validator nodes operated by BTCS and third parties.

Our evaluation of blockchain networks involves comprehensive due diligence procedures, including assessments of blockchain quality, reward potential, and the technical challenges associated with running validator nodes. Criteria for assessing blockchain quality encompass factors such as i) market and on-chain statistics, ii) liquidity, iii) potential blockchain utility, iv) history and milestones, v) growth and development roadmap, vi) use cases, vii) community interest, vii) quality of documentation, viii) decentralization, and ix) any other publicly available information.

<u>Ethereum Block Building – Builder+</u>

A central focus of BTCS's current operations is its Ethereum block-building initiative, branded as Builder+, launched in 2024. Through Builder+ we purchase block space and leverage advanced algorithmic processes to construct blocks for on-chain validation. The goal of Builder+ is to maximize gas fee revenue by optimizing the contents and structure of each block. The Company aims to maximize the value of gas fees earned by increasing the number of blocks we purchase while minimizing the payments to validators required for purchasing block space.

Builder+ is now a central driver of BTCS's growth strategy, reflecting the Company's emphasis on scalable and efficient revenue generation through advanced blockchain technology.

While Builder+ currently operates within the Ethereum ecosystem, it has been designed to adapt to a broader blockchain landscape, allowing for potential expansion to other networks in the future. This flexibility aligns with BTCS's strategic vision to maintain a robust blockchain infrastructure that is not limited to any single network, even as Ethereum remains a primary area of focus.

<u>Staking-as-a-Service – NodeOps</u> 

BTCS's non-custodial Staking-as-a-Service ("StaaS") business model allows for crypto asset holders to earn token rewards by participating in network consensus mechanisms through staking and delegating their crypto assets to Company operated validator nodes. As a non-custodial validator operator, the Company receives a percentage of a crypto asset holders' staking rewards generated as a validator node fee, for our ministerial role in hosting the validator node. This creates an opportunity for scalable revenue and business growth with limited additional costs. The Company's StaaS strategy provides a more accessible and cost-effective alternative for crypto asset holders to participate in blockchain networks' consensus mechanisms, promoting the growth and adoption of blockchain technology.

A StaaS provider maintains a ministerial role in validating transactions on a given dPoS network on behalf of its Delegators by (1) using open-source software to stake the relevant crypto assets; (2) monitoring and maintaining the nodes it is operating to ensure the computers remain online to validate transactions; and (3) verifying transactions on the network when required.

As a non-custodial StaaS provider, we do not hold or take possession of any Delegator funds, crypto assets, or crypto asset rewards at any point during the staking or delegation process. Delegation does not involve the transfer of crypto asset ownership to a Validator. During the process of staking, delegated crypto assets remain in the Delegator's digital wallets. The blockchain network calculates rewards earned, which are then distributed directly to the Delegator's wallet. The blockchain network does not distribute any of the Delegator's earned crypto rewards to BTCS. At no point does the Validator gain access, control, or custody of the original staked crypto assets or the earned crypto rewards through staking to its node. Therefore, the Company does not have any exposure to the custodial risks that a crypto exchange would have related to excessive redemptions or withdrawals of crypto assets, suspension of redemptions, or withdrawals. Further, we do not issue or hold crypto assets on behalf of third parties and have no exposure to the risks an exchange would have with respect to loans, rehypothecation, or margin.

The Company's business is subject to various risks, including regulatory uncertainties, crypto asset price volatility, and the adoption of blockchain technology. Future success depends on the growth of the crypto asset market and the Company's ability to effectively grow its operations.

<u>Supporting Platforms: ChainQ and StakeSeeker (discontinued)</u>

To enhance our core blockchain infrastructure, we have developed "ChainQ," an AI-powered blockchain data and analytics platform designed to increase accessibility and transparency within the blockchain ecosystem. Currently in beta, ChainQ simplifies on-chain data access and analysis for cryptocurrency holders, delivering deeper insights into blockchain activity. By indexing public data from our blockchain infrastructure operations, ChainQ provides an intuitive platform for exploring on-chain data.

On December 27, 2024, we announced the discontinuation of our StakeSeeker platform as part of our strategy to focus on Builder+ and NodeOps.

Except as otherwise indicated herein, all information in this prospectus supplement assumes no exercise of outstanding options, warrants, vesting of RSUs, or amendment and conversion of the Series V COD as described above.

**RISK FACTORS**

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before purchasing the securities offered by this prospectus you should consider carefully the risk factors incorporated by reference in this prospectus from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on March 20, 2025, as well as the risks, uncertainties and additional information set forth in the other documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus that we file with the Commission after the date of this prospectus and which are deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and the information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement. For a description of these reports and documents, and information about where you can find them, see "Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference." The risks and uncertainties we discuss in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus are those that we currently believe may materially affect our company. Additional risks not presently known, or currently deemed immaterial, also could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects.

***We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds we receive from this offering and may not use them effectively.***

We cannot specify with certainty the particular uses of the net proceeds we will receive from this offering. We will have broad discretion in the application of these net proceeds, including for any of the purposes described in the section entitled "Use of Proceeds." Accordingly, you will have to rely upon our judgment with respect to the use of these net proceeds, with only limited information concerning our specific intentions. We may spend a portion or all of the net proceeds we will receive from this offering in ways that our stockholders may not desire or that may not yield a favorable return. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could harm our business.

***If you purchase shares in this offering, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution of your investment. You will experience further dilution if we issue additional equity securities in future financing transactions.***

Because the assumed offering price per share of our Common Stock is higher than the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock, you will suffer immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value of the Common Stock you purchase in this offering.

Investors purchasing shares of Common Stock in this offering will incur immediate dilution of approximately $2.17 per share based on an assumed offering price of $2.80 per share. In addition, we have stock options and warrants outstanding that are exercisable into shares of our Common Stock. To the extent that such outstanding securities are exercised into shares of our Common Stock, investors purchasing our securities in this offering may experience further dilution.

***Future sales of our Common Stock, or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause the market price for our Common Stock to decline.***

We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of our Common Stock or the availability of shares of our Common Stock for sale will have on the market price of our Common Stock prevailing from time to time. Sales of substantial amounts of shares of our Common Stock in the public market, or the perception that those sales will occur, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline or be depressed.

The shares of Common Stock issued in connection with this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act.

***The Common Stock offered hereby will be sold in "at-the-market" offerings, and investors who buy shares at different times will likely pay different prices.***

Investors who purchase shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices, and numbers of shares sold, and there is no minimum or maximum sales price. Investors may experience a decline in the value of their shares as a result of share sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.

***The actual number of shares of Common Stock we will issue under the Offering Agreement, at any one time or in total, is uncertain.***

Subject to certain limitations in the Offering Agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a sales notice to the Agent at any time throughout the term of the Offering Agreement. The number of shares that are sold by the Agent after delivering a sales notice will fluctuate based on the market price of our Common Stock during the sales period and limits we set with the Agent. Because the price per share of each share sold will fluctuate based on the market price of our Common Stock during the sales period, it is not possible at this stage to predict the number of shares that will be ultimately issued.

***Our business operations involve running validator nodes for blockchain networks, including those associated with third-party staking ecosystems. This presents several risks that could materially affect our financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects.***

 ****

Operating validator nodes for third-party staking ecosystems presents significant risks, particularly around the security of staked tokens and governance uncertainties. Staked tokens are locked in smart contracts, and vulnerabilities in the blockchain protocol or smart contract code could result in loss or slashing of tokens. Additionally, many staking ecosystems operate under decentralized autonomous organizations ("DAOs"), where governance decisions—such as fee changes, validator selection criteria, or protocol upgrades—can be unpredictable and influenced by participants with concentrated voting power. Adverse governance outcomes or misalignment with DAO strategies could negatively impact the economic viability of our validator operations. Furthermore, any controversy or operational failures associated with third-party providers could harm our reputation, even if we are not directly involved. Finally, protocol updates or changes may require rapid technical adaptations, and failure to do so could result in penalties, operational disruptions, or removal from the validator set. Despite our efforts to mitigate these risks through security measures and governance monitoring, these challenges could materially affect our operations, the security of our crypto assets, our financial results, and the price of our stock. The inherent vulnerabilities in blockchain protocols or smart contract codes could lead to the potential loss of staked tokens, while unpredictable governance decisions by decentralized autonomous organizations could impact our strategic alignment and economic viability. Consequently, any adverse outcomes or operational failures could have a material adverse effect on our Company.

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities by us to provide additional funds for purchasing digital assets, working capital, and other general corporate purposes. As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses of the proceeds from this offering. Accordingly, we will retain broad discretion over the use of such proceeds.

**DIVIDEND POLICY**

Except for the issuance of the Series V in 2023 and a non-recurring special dividend of $0.05 for each outstanding share of Common Stock, we have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock. We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support our operations and finance the growth and development of our business. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon, among other factors, our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects, the requirements of current or then-existing debt instruments and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

**DILUTION**

If you purchase shares of Common Stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the price per share you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after this offering. Our net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025 was approximately $68,434, or $(0.0034) per share. Net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets, excluding goodwill and intangible assets (including crypto assets, stablecoins, and staked crypto assets) less total liabilities divided by the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding.

After giving effect to the sale of shares of our Common Stock in the aggregate amount of $225,000,000 at an assumed offering price of $2.80 per share, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock on July 7, 2025, and after deducting estimated commissions and estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025 would have been approximately $218,248,432 million or approximately $2.17 per share. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of approximately $2.167 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $0.63 per share to purchasers of our Common Stock in this offering, as illustrated by the table below.

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Assumed offering price per share |  | $2.80 |
| Net tangible book value per share as of September 30, 2024 | $0.003 |  |
| Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to this offering | $2.167 |  |
| As adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering |  | $2.17 |
| Dilution per share to new investors in this offering |  | $0.63 |

---

The table above assumes for illustrative purposes only an aggregate of 80,357,142 shares of our Common Stock are sold at a price of $2.80 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $225,000,000. The shares, if any, sold in this offering will be sold from time to time at various prices. An increase of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $2.80 per share shown in the table above, assuming all of our Common Stock in the aggregate amount of $225,000,000 is sold at that price, would increase our adjusted net tangible book value per share after the offering to $2.94 per share and would increase the dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering to $0.85 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us. A decrease of $1.00 per share in the price at which the shares are sold from the assumed offering price of $2.80 per share shown in the table above, assuming all of our Common Stock in the aggregate amount of $225,000,000 is sold at that price, would increase our adjusted net tangible book value per share after the offering to $1.39 per share and would increase the dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors in this offering to $0.40 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated aggregate offering expenses payable by us. This information is supplied for illustrative purposes only.

The foregoing table and discussion are based on 20,206,880 shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of March 31, 2025 and excludes as of that date:

● total of 712,500 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants with a weighted average exercise price of $11.50 per share;

● 2,729,568 stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $2.22 per share;

● 1,069,801 shares of Common Stock issuable upon vesting of restricted stock, which are entitled to receive the dividend in Series V, if and only if, the board, in its sole discretion, chooses to amend the Series V COD to be convertible into common stock on a one-to-one basis; and

● 3,868,396 shares of Common Stock available for future grants under our Equity Plan; and

● up to 14,934,937 shares of common stock, if and only if, the board, in its sole discretion, chooses to amend the Series V COD to be convertible into common stock on a one-to-one basis.

To the extent that any outstanding options or warrants are exercised, the Series V COD are converted into common stock, or we otherwise issue additional shares of Common Stock in the future, at a price less than the offering price in this offering, there will be further dilution to the investors.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

We have entered into the Offering Agreement with Wainwright, under which we may issue and sell from time to time shares of our Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of not more than $225,000,000 through Wainwright as our sales agent.

Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the ATM Agreement, Wainwright may offer and sell our common stock by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on or through the Nasdaq Capital Market, any other existing trading market of our common stock, sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange or otherwise, directly to Wainwright, in negotiated transactions at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at prices related to such prevailing market prices, and/or in any other method permitted by law. We may instruct Wainwright not to sell common stock if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us from time to time. We or Wainwright may suspend the offering of common stock upon notice and subject to other conditions.

We will pay Wainwright a commission of 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of our common stock sold pursuant to the ATM Agreement. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition of this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time. We have also agreed to reimburse Wainwright for certain specified expenses, including the fees and disbursements of its legal counsel, in an amount up to $50,000, in addition to up to $2,500 per due diligence update session for Wainwright's counsel's fees. We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding commissions payable to Wainwright under the Offering Agreement, will be approximately $50,000.

Settlement for sales of shares of common stock on the first trading day or such shorter settlement cycle as may be in effect under the Exchange Act from time to time, following the date on which any sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed upon by us and Wainwright in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. Sales of our common stock as contemplated in this prospectus supplement will be settled through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and Wainwright may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

Wainwright will use its best efforts, consistent with its normal sales and trading practices, to solicit offers to purchase the shares of common stock under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the sales agreement. In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock on our behalf, Wainwright will be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act and the compensation of Wainwright will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to Wainwright against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

This offering of shares of our common stock pursuant to the sales agreement will terminate upon termination of the sales agreement as permitted therein. We and Wainwright may each terminate the sales agreement as provided therein.

To the extent required by Regulation M, Wainwright will not engage in any market making activities involving our common stock while the offering is ongoing under this prospectus. Wainwright and its affiliates may in the future provide various investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services for us and our affiliates, for which services they may in the future receive customary fees.

This summary of the material provisions of the Offering Agreement does not purport to be a complete statement of its terms and conditions. A copy of the Offering Agreement is filed with the SEC and is incorporated by reference into the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. See "INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN INFORMATION BY REFERENCE" elsewhere in this prospectus.

This prospectus in electronic format may be made available on a website maintained by Wainwright and Wainwright may distribute this prospectus electronically.

**Our Company**

BTCS Inc. ("BTCS" or the "Company"), a Nevada corporation listed on Nasdaq, has operated in the blockchain technology sector since 2014 with a primary focus on blockchain infrastructure. The Company secures and operates validator nodes (as a "Validator") on various proof-of-stake ("PoS") and delegated proof-of-stake ("dPoS") based blockchain networks earning native token rewards by staking our proof-of-stake crypto assets (also referred to "cryptocurrencies", "crypto", "crypto assets", "digital assets", or "tokens"), with an emphasis on Ethereum.

The Company's non-custodial Staking-as-a-Service ("StaaS") business allows crypto asset holders to earn staking rewards by participating in network consensus mechanisms through staking (or "delegating") their crypto assets to BTCS-operated validator nodes (or "nodes"). As a non-custodial Validator, BTCS may charge a validator node fee, typically determined as a percent of the crypto asset rewards earned on crypto assets delegated to its node, creating the opportunity for potential scalable revenue and business growth with limited additional costs.

The internally developed "StakeSeeker" platform is a personal finance software that allows crypto asset holders to monitor and analyze their portfolios across exchanges and wallets. It includes tracking capabilities utilizing application programming interfaces (APIs) as well as educational features, offering users guidance on the delegation of their crypto assets to our non-custodial validator nodes, along with the ability to monitor such delegation activities through data analysis. StakeSeeker is an informational monitoring tool and does not facilitate trading, delegation or custody of crypto assets on the platform.

The Company developed "Builder+", an Ethereum block builder ("Builder") that utilizes algorithms to optimize block construction for on-chain validation and to maximize gas fees.

The Company's business is subject to various risks, including regulatory uncertainties, crypto asset price volatility, and the adoption of blockchain technology. Future success depends on the growth of the crypto asset market and the Company's ability to effectively grow its StaaS and blockchain infrastructure operations.

**CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS**

This prospectus including the documents incorporated by reference contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts, including statements regarding our future financial position, liquidity, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words "believe," "may," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "should," "plan," "could," "target," "potential," "is likely," "will," "expect" and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs.

The results anticipated by any or all of these forward-looking statements might not occur. Important factors, uncertainties and risks that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements are contained in the risk factors that follow and elsewhere in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events or otherwise. For more information regarding some of the ongoing risks and uncertainties of our business, see the risk factors that follow and or that are disclosed in our incorporated documents.

**RISK FACTORS**

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before purchasing the securities offered by this prospectus you should consider carefully the risk factors incorporated by reference in this prospectus from our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 21, 2024, as well as the risks, uncertainties and additional information set forth in the other documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus that we file with the Commission after the date of this prospectus and which are deemed incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and the information contained in any applicable prospectus supplement. For a description of these reports and documents, and information about where you can find them, see "Incorporation of Certain Information by Reference." The risks and uncertainties we discuss in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus are those that we currently believe may materially affect our company. Additional risks not presently known, or currently deemed immaterial, also could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, business and prospects.

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

Unless we specify otherwise in an accompanying prospectus supplement, we intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the securities by us to provide additional funds for purchasing digital assets, working capital, and other general corporate purposes. Any specific allocation of the net proceeds of an offering of securities will be determined at the time of such offering and will be described in the accompanying supplement to this prospectus.

**DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK**

We are authorized to issue 975,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

**Common Stock**

We are authorized to issue 975,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors. There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors. In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and the liquidation preferences of any outstanding shares of preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive rights and have no right to convert their common stock into any other securities and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

The holders of common stock are entitled to any dividends that may be declared by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") out of funds legally available for payment of dividends subject to the prior rights of holders of preferred stock and any contractual restrictions we have against the payment of dividends on common stock. We have not paid dividends on our common stock since inception and do not plan to pay dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

As of September 25, 2024, we had 16,522,893 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, as of that date, there were 3,821,373 shares underlying our outstanding warrants, restricted stock units and stock options.

**Preferred Stock**

We are authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board. As the date of this prospectus, we had 14,567,829 shares of Series V preferred stock outstanding.

Preferred stock is available for possible future financings or acquisitions and for general corporate purposes without further authorization of our stockholders unless such authorization is required by applicable law, or the rules of any securities exchange or market on which our stock is then listed or admitted or trading.

Our Board may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes could, under some circumstances, have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. For a description of how future issuances of our preferred stock could affect the rights of our stockholders, see "Certain Provisions of Nevada Law and of Our Charter and Bylaws – Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws," below.

A prospectus supplement relating to any series of preferred stock being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering. Such prospectus supplement will include:

● the title and stated or par value of the preferred stock;

● the number of shares of the preferred stock offered, the liquidation preference per share and the offering price of the preferred stock;

● the dividend rate(s), period(s) and/or payment date(s) or method(s) of calculation thereof applicable to the preferred stock;

● whether dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if cumulative, the date from which dividends on the preferred stock shall accumulate;

● the provisions for a sinking fund, if any, for the preferred stock;

● any voting rights of the preferred stock;

● the provisions for redemption, if applicable, of the preferred stock;

● any listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange;

● if appropriate, a discussion of federal income tax consequences applicable to the preferred stock; and

● any other specific terms, preferences, rights, limitations or restrictions of the preferred stock.

**DESCRIPTION OF WARRANTS**

We may issue warrants for the purchase of common stock. Warrants may be issued independently or together with other securities and may be attached to or separate from any offered securities. Each series of warrants will be issued under a separate warrant agreement. Set forth below is a brief summary of the general terms and provisions of the warrants that we may issue from time to time. Additional terms of the warrants and the applicable warrant agreement will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

The following descriptions, and any description of the warrants included in a prospectus supplement, may not be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and provisions of the applicable warrant agreement, which we will file with the Commission in connection with any offering of warrants.

**General**

The prospectus supplement relating to a particular issue of warrants will describe the terms of the warrants, including the following:

● the title of the warrants;

● the offering price of the warrants, if any;

● the aggregate number of the warrants;

● the terms of the security that may be purchased upon exercise of the warrants;

● if applicable, the designation and terms of the securities that the warrants are issued with and the number of warrants issued with each security;

Holders may exercise warrants at any time up to the close of business on the expiration date set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. After the close of business on the expiration date, unexercised warrants will be void. Holders may exercise warrants as set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the warrants being offered. Until a holder exercises the warrants to purchase any securities underlying the warrants, the holder will not have any rights as a holder of the underlying securities by virtue of ownership of warrants.

**DESCRIPTION OF UNITS**

We may issue units comprised of one or more of the other securities described in this prospectus or any prospectus supplement in any combination. Each unit will be issued so that the holder of the unit is also the holder, with the rights and obligations of a holder, of each security included in the unit. The unit agreement under which a unit is issued may provide that the securities included in the unit may not be held or transferred separately, at any time or at any times before a specified date or upon the occurrence of a specified event or occurrence.

The applicable prospectus supplement will describe:

● the designation and the terms of the units and of the securities comprising the units, including whether and under what circumstances those securities may be held or transferred separately;

● any unit agreement under which the units will be issued;

● any provisions for the issuance, payment, settlement, transfer or exchange of the units or of the securities comprising the units; and

**CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF NEVADA LAW AND OF OUR CHARTER AND BYLAWS**

**Anti-Takeover Effects of Nevada Law**

We may currently be, or in the future become, subject to the provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes regarding the acquisition of controlling interest (the "Controlling Interest Law"). A corporation is subject to the Controlling Interest Law if it has more than 200 stockholders of record, at least 100 of whom are residents of Nevada, and if the corporation does business in Nevada, directly or through an affiliated corporation. The Controlling Interest Law may have the effect of discouraging corporate takeovers. As of September 25, 2024, we had no stockholders of record who are residents of Nevada.

The Controlling Interest Law focuses on the acquisition of a "controlling interest," which means the ownership of outstanding voting shares that would be sufficient, but for the operation of law, to enable the acquiring person to exercise the following proportions of the voting power of the corporation in the election of directors: (1) one-fifth or more but less than one-third; (2) one-third or more but less than a majority; or (3) a majority or more. The ability to exercise this voting power may be direct or indirect, as well as individual or in association with others.

The effect of the Controlling Interest Law is that an acquiring person, and those acting in association with such person, will obtain only such voting rights in the controlling interest as are conferred by a resolution of (1) a majority of the stockholders of the corporation and, if applicable (2) a majority of each class or series of outstanding shares of which the acquisition would adversely affect or alter a preference or relative or other right, approved at a special or annual stockholders' meeting. The Controlling Interest Law contemplates that voting rights will be considered only once by the other stockholders. Thus, there is no authority to take away voting rights from the control shares of an acquiring person once those rights have been approved in accordance with the Controlling Interest Law. However, if the stockholders do not grant voting rights to the shares acquired by an acquiring person, those shares do not become permanent non-voting shares. The acquiring person is free to sell the shares to others, and so long as the subsequent buyer or buyers of those shares themselves do not acquire a controlling interest, those shares would not be governed by the Controlling Interest Law.

If control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired control shares with a majority or more of the voting power, a stockholder of record, other than the acquiring person, who did not vote in favor of approval of voting rights, is entitled to dissent to the acquisition and demand fair value for such stockholder's shares pursuant to applicable provisions of Chapter 92 of the Nevada Revised Statutes governing rights and procedures for dissenting stockholders.

In addition to the Controlling Interest Law, Nevada has a business combination law, which prohibits certain business combinations between Nevada publicly traded corporations and any "interested stockholder" for two years after the interested stockholder first becomes an interested stockholder, unless the board of directors of the corporation approved the combination before the person became an interested stockholder or the corporation's board of directors approves the transaction and at least 60% of the corporation's disinterested stockholders approve the combination at an annual or special meeting thereof. For purposes of Nevada law, an interested stockholder is any person who is: (a) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares of the corporation, or (b) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the previous two years was the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of 10% or more of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition of "combination" contained in the statute is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential acquirer to use the corporation's assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests of the corporation and its other stockholders.

The effect of Nevada's business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of the Company from doing so if they cannot obtain the approval of our Board or stockholders.

In addition, under Nevada law directors may be removed only by the vote of stockholders representing not less than two-thirds of the voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote, which could also have an anti-takeover effect.

**Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws**

Provisions of our articles of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws may delay or discourage transactions involving an actual or potential change in our control or change in our management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares, or transactions that our stockholders might otherwise deem to be in their best interests. Therefore, these provisions could adversely affect the price of our common stock. Among other things, our articles of incorporation and bylaws:

● permit our Board to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, without further action by the stockholders, with any rights, preferences and privileges as our Board may designate, including the right to approve an acquisition or other change in control;

● provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by a resolution adopted by the Board;

● provide that, for interim periods before the next meeting of the stockholders held for the election of directors, all vacancies, including newly created directorships, may, except as otherwise required by law, be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of directors then in office, even if less than a quorum;

● do not provide for cumulative voting rights (therefore allowing the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock entitled to vote in any election of directors to elect all of the directors standing for election, if they should so choose);

● provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called only by the Chairman of the Board, the Chief Executive Officer or the Board;

● provide advance notice provisions applicable to a stockholder who wishes to nominate a director or propose other business to be considered at a stockholders' meeting.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

We may sell the securities offered by this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions, including without limitation:

● through underwriters or brokers;

● directly to purchasers;

● in a rights offering;

● in "at-the-market" offerings, within the meaning of Rule 415(a)(4) of the Securities Act to or through a market maker or into an existing trading market on an exchange or otherwise;

● through agents;

● in block trades;

● through a combination of any of these methods; or

● through any other method permitted by applicable law and described in a prospectus supplement.

In addition, we may issue the securities as a dividend or distribution to our existing stockholders or other security holders.

The prospectus supplement with respect to any offering of securities will include the following information:

● the
 terms of the offering;

● the
 names of any underwriters or agents;

● the
 name or names of any managing underwriter or underwriters;

● the
 purchase price or initial public offering price of the securities;

● the
 net proceeds from the sale of the securities;

● any
 delayed delivery arrangements;

● any
 underwriting discounts, commissions and other items constituting underwriters' compensation;

● any
 discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to brokers;

● any
 commissions paid to agents; and

● any
 securities exchange on which the securities may be listed.

**Sale through Underwriters or Brokers**

If underwriters are used in the sale, the underwriters may resell the securities from time to time in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions, at a fixed public offering price or at varying prices determined at the time of sale. Underwriters may offer securities to the public either through underwriting syndicates represented by one or more managing underwriters or directly by one or more firms acting as underwriters. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the securities will be subject to certain conditions, and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the offered securities if they purchase any of them. The underwriters may change from time to time any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to brokers.

We will describe the name or names of any underwriters, brokers or agents and the purchase price of the securities in a prospectus supplement relating to the securities.

In connection with the sale of the securities, underwriters may receive compensation from us or from purchasers of the securities, for whom they may act as agents, in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through brokers, and these brokers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters and/or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agents, which is not expected to exceed that customary in the types of transactions involved. Underwriters, brokers and agents that participate in the distribution of the securities may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts or commissions they receive from us, and any profit on the resale of the securities they realize may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions, under the Securities Act. The prospectus supplement will identify any underwriter or agent and will describe any compensation they receive from us.

Underwriters could make sales in privately negotiated transactions and/or any other method permitted by law, including sales deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering, sales made directly on The Nasdaq Capital Market, the existing trading market for our common stock, or sales made to or through a market maker other than on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The name of any such underwriter or agent involved in the offer and sale of our securities, the amounts underwritten, and the nature of its obligations to take our securities will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in the prospectus supplement, each series of the securities will be a new issue with no established trading market, other than our shares of common stock, which are currently traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market. It is possible that one or more underwriters may make a market in a series of the securities, but underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. Therefore, we can give no assurance about the liquidity of the trading market for any of the securities.

Under agreements we may enter into, we may indemnify underwriters, brokers, and agents who participate in the distribution of the securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or contribute with respect to payments that the underwriters, brokers or agents may be required to make.

Any compensation we pay underwriters or brokers will be subject to the guidelines of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. We will disclose the compensation in any applicable prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be.

To facilitate the offering of securities, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of the securities. This may include over-allotments or short sales of the securities, which involve the sale by persons participating in the offering of more securities than we sold to them. In these circumstances, these persons would cover such over-allotments or short positions by making purchases in the open market or by exercising their over-allotment option, if any. In addition, these persons may stabilize or maintain the price of the securities by bidding for or purchasing securities in the open market or by imposing penalty bids, whereby selling concessions allowed to brokers participating in the offering may be reclaimed if securities sold by them are repurchased in connection with stabilization transactions. The effect of these transactions may be to stabilize or maintain the market price of the securities at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. These transactions may be discontinued at any time.

From time to time, we may engage in transactions with these underwriters, brokers, and agents in the ordinary course of business.

**Direct Sales and Sales through Agents**

We may sell the securities directly. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved. We also may sell the securities through agents designated by us from time to time. In the applicable prospectus supplement, we will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the offered securities, and we will describe any commissions payable to the agent. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, any agent will agree to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit purchases for the period of its appointment.

We may sell the securities directly to institutional investors or others who may be deemed to be underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any sale of those securities. We will describe the terms of any sales of these securities in the applicable prospectus supplement.

**Remarketing Arrangements**

Securities also may be offered and sold, if so indicated in the applicable prospectus supplement, in connection with a remarketing upon their purchase, in accordance with a redemption or repayment pursuant to their terms, or otherwise, by one or more remarketing firms, acting as principals for their own accounts or as agents for us. Any remarketing firm will be identified and the terms of its agreements, if any, with us and its compensation will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

**Delayed Delivery Contracts**

If we so indicate in the applicable prospectus supplement, we may authorize agents, underwriters or brokers to solicit offers from certain types of institutions to purchase securities from us at the public offering price under delayed delivery contracts. These contracts would provide for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts would be subject only to those conditions described in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will describe the commission payable for solicitation of those contracts.

**General Information**

We may have agreements with the underwriters, brokers, agents and remarketing firms to indemnify them against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute with respect to payments that the underwriters, brokers, agents or remarketing firms may be required to make. Underwriters, brokers, agents and remarketing firms may be customers of, engage in transactions with or perform services for us in the ordinary course of their businesses.

**LEGAL MATTERS**

The validity of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Nason, Yeager, Gerson, Harris & Fumero, P.A., Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
