**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

***Promissory Note and Pre-Funded Common Stock Purchase Warrant***

 ****

The Crypto Company (the "Company") borrowed funds from Three Mile Creek Future LLC ("TMCF") and issued a Promissory Note (the "Note") in the principal amount of 1.7 Bitcoin and a Pre-Funded Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the "Warrant"), which entitles TMCF to subscribe for and purchase from the Company up to 77,704,407 shares of the Company's common stock, each executed on July 16, 2025.

The principal balance of the Note will be payable on January 10, 2026. The Note bears no interest and can be pre-paid by the Company any time without penalty. To secure the payment and performance of all obligations under the Note, the Company granted to TMCF a continuing security interest in all assets of the Company (the "Collateral"). Upon event of default, the unpaid principal balance of the Note will immediately become due and payable, and TMCF will have all rights and remedies available to it under the Nevada Uniform Commercial Code, including the right to take possession of the Collateral and to sell or otherwise dispose of it. AJB Capital Investments LLC, which holds a first priority security interest in the Collateral, has consented to the creation of the TMCF security interest in the Collateral and agreed to subordinate its lien to TMCF's security interest.

The Warrant entitles TMCF to subscribe for and purchase from the Company up to 77,704,407 shares of the Company's common stock any time prior to July 10, 2030. The aggregate exercise price of the TMCF Warrant was pre-funded to the Company. Consequently, TMCF need not pay any additional consideration to exercise the Warrant, other than a nominal exercise price of $0.03 per share.

The Warrant is exercisable at any time on or after the date of issuance and expires five years after the date of issuance.

The issuance of the Note and Warrant was made in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in reliance on exemptions afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

The foregoing descriptions of the Note and Warrant do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Note and Warrant which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

***Consulting Agreement***

On July 22, 2025, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement effective as of July 1, 2025, with Rafael Furst (the "Consultant") in connection with Consultant's appointment as the Company's Chief Strategy Officer (the "Consulting Agreement"), as described further under Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Under the terms of the Consulting Agreement, the Consultant will serve as an independent contractor and provide strategic advisory services to the Company, including advising on the implementation of the Company's crypto treasury strategy, blockchain education platform, M&A initiatives, and cross-platform product development over a three-month term, unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual written agreement of the parties. In consideration for the services, the Consultant will receive a total of $75,000 for the three-month term, payable on October 1, 2025, in cash or, at the Company's sole discretion, in fully vested shares of the Company's common stock at a 25% discount to the volume-weighted average price over the 10 trading days immediately preceding the payment date. The shares issued will be subject to restrictions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Consulting Agreement also contains provisions relating to confidentiality, ownership of work product, non-competition, non-solicitation, indemnification, limitation of liability, and other customary terms and conditions for agreements of this nature.

Either party may terminate the Consulting Agreement at any time prior to the expiration of the term by mutual written agreement. The Consulting Agreement will automatically terminate upon the execution of a definitive employment agreement between the Company and the Consultant.

The foregoing description of the Consulting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Consulting Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

***Appointment of Chief Strategy Officer***

On July 21, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Rafael Furst as Chief Strategy Officer of the Company, effective July 22, 2025. In connection with the appointment, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement with Mr. Fuerst, which is described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Mr. Furst has no direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction required to be reported under Section 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

**Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.**

## Exhibit 10.2

**Exhibit 10.2**

**The Crypto Company** 

**PRE-FUNDED WARRANT AGREEMENT**

THIS WARRANT HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 (THE "***ACT***") OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. NO SALE OR DISPOSITION OF THIS WARRANT OR THE SECURITIES ISSUABLE UPON ITS EXERCISE MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR HOLDER, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE ACT.

**Issuance Date: July 10, 2025**

The following is a statement of the rights of the holder of this Pre-Funded Warrant Agreement (this "**<u>Warrant</u>**") and the conditions to which this Warrant is subject, and to which the Holder hereof, by the acceptance of this Warrant, agrees:

For value received, THREE MILE CREEK FUTURE LLC and its permitted assigns ("**Holder**"), is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, subject to terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time on or after the date hereof (the "**<u>Initial Exercise Date</u>**") up to 77,704,407 shares of the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "**<u>Common Stock</u>**") of The Crypto Company, a Nevada corporation (the "**Company**") (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the "**<u>Warrant Shares</u>**"). The purchase price of one Warrant Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 1(b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Terms of Exercise;</u>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Exercise of Warrant</u>. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and, on or before the Expiration Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF or DocuSign copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto as **Exhibit A** (the "**<u>Notice of Exercise</u>**"). The warrant shall be exercised by the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2 below. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) trading days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) trading day of receipt of such notice. **The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.** For the avoidance of doubt, there is no circumstance that would require the Company to net cash settle the Warrants.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Exercise Price</u>. The aggregate exercise price of this Warrant, except for a nominal exercise price of $0.03 per Warrant Share, was pre-funded to the Company on or prior to the Initial Exercise Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise price of $0.03 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such pre-paid aggregate exercise price under any circumstance or for any reason whatsoever. The remaining unpaid exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $0.03, subject to adjustment hereunder (the "**<u>Exercise Price</u>**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Method of Exercise</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The purchase right represented by this Warrant may only be exercised by Holder, in whole or in part, prior to the Expiration Date (as defined herein) by the surrender of this Warrant and the execution and delivery of a Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto as **<u>Exhibit A</u>** ("**Notice of Exercise**"). Upon any valid exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to Holder as soon as practicable or in the case of uncertificated Warrant Shares, the Company's stock ledger shall be updated to reflect the issuance of such Warrant Shares as soon as practicable. Such exercise shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of surrender of this Warrant and the delivery of the validly executed notice of exercise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Holder shall exercise all or a portion of its rights to acquire Warrant Shares without the payment of any additional consideration by surrendering this Warrant to the Company (together with the Notice of Exercise) (i.e., a cashless exercise). The Company shall deliver to the Holder (without payment by the Holder of any cash or other consideration) that number of shares of Common Stock under the following formula:

X = (Y \* (A – B)) / A

Where,

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Fractional Shares</u>. No fractional Warrant Shares will be issued in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>Purchase and Transferability of Warrant Shares</u>. With respect to any offer, sale, or other disposition of this Warrant or the Warrant Shares, Holder by acceptance hereof agrees to be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Warrant, specifically:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, no exercise of the Warrant into any equity securities of the Company will be made unless the Company determines (acting in a commercially reasonable manner) that such exercise can be made under exemptions from registration or qualification of such exercise under applicable securities laws without the creation of any offering memorandum prescribed by such laws unless at the time of such exercise the Company already has completed such a memorandum and such exercise would be exempt from registration and qualification by, among other things, delivery of such memorandum to Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Holder represents and agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant are and will be purchased only for investment, for Holder's own account, and without any present intention to sell or distribute this Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Holder further acknowledges that the Warrant Shares will not be issued unless the issuance and delivery of the Warrant Shares shall comply with all relevant provisions of law, and other applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Holder acknowledges and agrees that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been and will not be registered under the Act and, accordingly, will not be transferable except as permitted under the various exemptions contained in the Act, or upon satisfaction of the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act, and subject to <u>Section 9</u> below. Holder further acknowledges and agrees that only the Company may file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("**<u>SEC</u>**") and the Company is under no obligation to do so with respect to the Warrant Shares, nor does it have any obligation to file any other disclosure statement with the SEC with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Representations of Holder</u>. The Holder represents and warrants that it is acquiring the Warrant and the Warrant Shares solely for its account for investment and not with a view to or for sale or distribution of said Warrant or Warrant Shares or any part thereof. The Holder also represents that the entire legal and beneficial interests of the Warrant and Warrant Shares the Holder is acquiring is being acquired for, and will be held for, its account only. The Holder understands that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Act, on the basis that no distribution or public offering of the securities of the Company is to be effected. The Holder realizes that the basis for the exemption may not be present if, notwithstanding its representations, the Holder has a present intention of acquiring the securities for a fixed or determinable period in the future, selling (in connection with a distribution or otherwise), granting any participation in, or otherwise distributing the securities. The Holder has no such present intention. The Holder recognizes that the Warrant and the Warrant Shares must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The Holder recognizes that the Company has no obligation to register the Warrant or the Warrant Shares of the Company, or to comply with any exemption from such registration. The Holder is aware that neither the Warrant nor the Warrant Shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 adopted under the Act unless certain conditions are met, including, among other things, the existence of a public market for the Warrant Shares, the availability of certain current public information about the Company and the resale following the required holding period under Rule 144. Holder is aware that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied and that the Company presently has no plans to satisfy these conditions in the foreseeable future. The Holder understands and agrees that all certificates evidencing the Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder, if any, may bear the following legend: "The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "***Act***") or state securities laws, and cannot be offered, sold or otherwise transferred in the absence of registration or the availability of an exemption from registration under the Act, regulations promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Assignment of Warrant</u>. The Holder may not transfer this Warrant or Warrant Shares to a third party without the prior written consent of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Rights as a Stockholder</u>. This Warrant shall not (a) entitle Holder to be deemed a stockholder of the Company for any purpose; (b) confer upon the Holder of this Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote for the election of directors or upon any matter submitted to stockholders at any meeting thereof; (c) entitle Holder to give or withhold consent to any company action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance of shares, reclassification of shares, consolidation, merger, conveyance, or otherwise); or (d) entitle Holder to receive notice of meetings or to receive distributions or subscription rights until the Warrant shall have been exercised and the certificates representing the Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise hereof shall have been issued, or in the case of uncertificated Warrant Shares, the Company's stock ledger updated, as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Reorganization Event</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) For purposes of this Warrant, a "**<u>Reorganization Event</u>**" shall mean (i) any transaction in which all or substantially all of the Company's assets are acquired, or any transaction in which more than 50% of the Company's outstanding equity interests acquired, directly or indirectly, by any person other than those persons who are the stockholders of the Company as of the "**<u>Issuance Date</u>**" of this Warrant; (ii) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; or (iii) a merger or consolidation which is not within the scope of the transactions described in clause (i) above and in which the Company is not the surviving entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Reorganization Event" shall not include a merger, consolidation, or conversion in which the surviving entity is owned and controlled by substantially the same persons, in substantially the same proportions, as the Company prior to such transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall provide the Holder with written notice of a Reorganization Event. Such notice shall be given not later than 20 days prior to the stockholders' meeting called to approve such transaction (if any) or 20 days prior to the closing of such transaction, whichever is earlier. The Company shall also notify the Holder in writing of the final approval of such transaction. The first of such notices shall describe the material terms and conditions of the contemplated transaction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder's right to exercise this Warrant in whole or in part shall automatically be fully exercisable immediately prior to the occurrence of a Reorganization Event, and shall automatically terminate immediately prior to the consummation of a Reorganization Event. To exercise Holder's Warrant rights immediately prior to the consummation of a Reorganization Event, the Holder must, not later than ten days prior to the closing of such transaction, surrender the Warrant to the Company and deliver a validly executed Notice of Exercise to the Company in the form attached hereto as **<u>Exhibit A</u>**. The exercise of this Warrant shall be conditioned upon the closing of such transaction, in which event the Holder shall not be deemed to have exercised such Warrant until immediately prior to the closing of such transaction. If the transaction does not occur for any reason, the Company shall promptly return to the Holder this Warrant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Term</u>. Subject to <u>Section 11(c)</u>, the term of this Warrant shall be for five years, commencing on the Issuance Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Issuance Date, (the "**Expiration Date**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Limitations on Exercise to Comply with Nasdaq Rules</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not issue any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant, and this Warrant shall not be exercisable, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to this Warrant and all other warrants or other securities issued in connection with the same offering or transaction (as defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)) would exceed 19.99% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (or voting power) as of the date of issuance of this Warrant (the "**Exchange Cap**"), unless the Company obtains stockholder approval in accordance with the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Exchange Cap shall apply in the aggregate to all such securities and shall not be exceeded unless such stockholder approval is obtained.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Miscellaneous</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any provision of this Warrant may be amended, waived or modified upon the written consent of the Company and Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) This Warrant shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be modified to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) This Warrant may be executed in two or more counterparts, including by electronic signature or scanned copy, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) All notices required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, if not, then on the next business day, (c) three days after having been sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (d) one day after deposit with a nationally recognized overnight courier, specifying next day delivery, with written verification of receipt. All communications shall be sent to the Company and to Holder at such addresses as the Company or Holder may designate by written notice to the other.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) This Warrant, the Promissory Note issued by the Company to the Holder as of the date hereof and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor the Holder makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters.

## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE**

**Rafe Furst Returns to The Crypto Company as Chief Strategy Officer, Backing Vision with Bitcoin Investment Into The Company**

**MALIBU, CA – July 22, 2025 (NEWMEDIAWIRE)** – The Crypto Company (OTCID: CRCW), a publicly traded blockchain and crypto-focused company, is proud to announce that **Rafe Furst**, one of the Company's original founders, has rejoined the Company as **Chief Strategy Officer**. In addition to taking on this key leadership role, Furst (through a related entity) is investing Bitcoin into the Company.

Beginning with a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence from Stanford University in 1992, Rafe pivoted from research into the Silicon Valley startup world, eventually founding four innovative companies in Web 1.0 and Web 2.0 before venturing into Web3 with The Crypto Company. Rafe brings decades of experience at the intersection of emerging technology, systems design, and strategic venture building. His return signals a renewed focus on long-term innovation and growth for TCC.

**"Having Rafe back is more than symbolic—it's catalytic,"** said **Ron Levy**, CEO of The Crypto Company. "He brings a rare mix of technical fluency, entrepreneurial track record, and deep crypto-native insight. His personal investment underscores his conviction that TCC is uniquely positioned in the next wave of blockchain and crypto adoption."

Furst is also known for his work in early-stage venture capital and has been an early investor in dozens of companies, helped pioneer equity crowdfunding, and authored influential essays on decision theory and decentralized systems. Furst was the initial seed capital investor in one of the largest online poker sites in the world.

Furst has also recently published a #1 Amazon Bestseller, *The Future of Venture Capital (foreword by Tim Draper)*. He is also a World Series of Poker Champion—an achievement that mirrors his disciplined, probabilistic approach to business strategy. In his new role, Furst will define and lead the implementation of the Company's crypto treasury strategy. **"Returning to The Crypto Company feels like picking up a conversation that never ended,"** said Furst. "I believe we're approaching a convergence point—where blockchain, crypto, and AI will redefine how capital and value are formed and allocated globally, not just in the private markets but in the public markets as well. I'm excited to help TCC become a bridge between these two worlds."

Furst's investment of Bitcoin into The Crypto Company echoes his original investment of Bitcoin into the Company at its formation in 2017. "It feels like I've come full circle, with renewed energy and excitement about the crypto industry and TCC's rightful place in it," said Furst, reflecting growing internal confidence in TCC's roadmap and mission-driven approach to building in the blockchain space.

**About The Crypto Company**

The Crypto Company (TCC) brings together sophisticated operating entities, Web3 assets, education and training under one roof. TCC was one of the first public companies (2017) to implement a crypto treasury strategy. As a leader in Web3 solutions, TCC creates synergies between traditional finance and the decentralized economy.
