**DeFi Development Corp.**

**Up to 12,375,896 Shares of Common Stock Offered by Selling Stockholders**

This prospectus covers the offer and potential resale by certain selling stockholders ("Selling Stockholders") identified herein of (i) 4,306,527 shares of our common stock, par value $0.00001 per share ("Common Stock"), issuable upon the conversion of $41,950,000 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes (the "Notes"), (ii) 2,447,102 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued at an exercise price of $17.14 per share ("Warrant 1") and (iii) 1,957,648 shares of Common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued at an exercise price of $21.43 per share, ("Warrant 2" and, together with Warrant 1, the "Warrants"), (iv) 2,210,866 shares of Common Stock and (v) 1,453,753 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of pre-funded warrants at an exercise price of approximately $0.0014 per share ("Pre-Funded Warrants").

We are registering the shares on behalf of the Selling Stockholders to be offered and sold by it from time to time. We are not selling any securities under this prospectus and will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus. The Selling Stockholders may offer and sell such shares to or through one or more underwriters, dealers and agents, or directly to purchasers, or through a combination of these methods or any other method permitted by law. See "Plan of Distribution" for more information about how the Selling Stockholders may sell or otherwise dispose of such shares. Our registration of these shares does not mean that the Selling Stockholders will offer or sell any shares of our Common Stock.

Effective May 20, 2025, we approved a 7-for-1 forward split (the "Stock Split") of our Common Stock. As a result, each holder of record of Common Stock as of the close of business on May 19, 2025 received six additional shares of Common Stock. The $0.00001 par value per share remained unchanged. Unless otherwise stated, disclosures in this prospectus have been updated to reflect the Stock Split.

Our Common Stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "DFDV". On June 20, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Common Stock was $24.88. The applicable prospectus supplement, if any, will contain information, where applicable, as to any other listing, if any, on The Nasdaq Capital Market or any securities market or other securities exchange of the securities covered by the prospectus supplement. Prospective purchasers of our securities are urged to obtain current information as to the market prices of our securities, where applicable.

We are an "emerging growth company," as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and a "smaller reporting company" as that term is defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and future filings. See "Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company", "Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company" and "Risk Factors — Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock."

**Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.**

**We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time by filing amendments or supplements as required. We urge you to read the entire prospectus, any amendments or supplements, any free writing prospectuses, and any documents incorporated by reference carefully before you make your investment decision.**

**Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 8 of this prospectus for a discussion of certain risks that you should consider in connection with an investment in our securities.**

The date of this prospectus is June 23, 2025.

This prospectus includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including statements regarding our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management, are forward-looking statements. The words "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "might," "plan," "predict," "project," "target," "potential," "would," "could," "should," "continue" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words.

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this prospectus, particularly in the "Risk Factors" section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. You should also carefully review the risk factors and cautionary statements described in the other documents we file from time to time with the SEC, specifically our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make.

The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are made as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements except as required by applicable law.

This prospectus includes certain statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from industry publications and research, surveys and studies conducted by third parties as well as our own estimates of potential market opportunities. Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. Our estimates of the potential market opportunities for our product candidates include several key assumptions based on our industry knowledge, industry publications, third-party research and other surveys, which may be based on a small sample size and may fail to accurately reflect market opportunities. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, no independent source has verified such assumptions.

**Our Company**

DeFi Development Corp. (formerly Janover Inc.) is an AI-powered online platform that connects the commercial real estate industry by providing data and software subscriptions as well as value-add services to multifamily and commercial property professionals as we connect the increasingly complex ecosystem that stakeholders have to manage. We provide a technology platform that connects commercial mortgage and small business borrowers looking for debt to refinance, build, or buy commercial property including apartment buildings to commercial property lenders. These property lenders include traditional banks, credit unions, real estate investment trusts ("REITs"), debt funds, and other financial institutions looking to deploy capital into commercial mortgages.

Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company adopted a new treasury policy and strategy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital assets, starting with Solana ("SOL") by applying a public-market treasury model to an asset that's earlier in its lifecycle, structurally reflexive, and underexposed as compared to Bitcoin. The Board of Directors approved the Company's treasury policy on April 4, 2025, authorizing the long-term accumulation of SOL. The Company also aims to operate one or more SOL validators, enabling it to stake its treasury assets, participate in securing the network, and earn rewards that can be reinvested. This treasury strategy reflects a belief that SOL represents a high-conviction, long-term cryptoasset with superior technical performance, robust developer traction, and growing institutional adoption. The Company's approach involves acquiring SOL directly — both through market purchases and strategic partnerships — and staking its holdings via Company-operated validators to generate native staking yield. This treasury initiative enhances the Company's capital allocation strategy and does not affect its core commercial real estate platform, which remains fully operational. The AI-powered marketplace, software offerings, and subscription services supporting the multifamily and commercial property ecosystem continue to be a central part of the Company's business.

**Our Corporate Information**

We were originally formed as Janover Ventures LLC, a Florida limited liability company, on November 28, 2018, and converted to Janover Inc., a Delaware corporation, on March 9, 2021. We are headquartered at 6401 Congress Avenue, Suite 250, Boca Raton, Florida 33487. The Company's website is *https://defidevcorp.com*. Information contained on our website is not incorporated into this prospectus and you should not consider information contained on our website to be part of this prospectus

Effective April 17, 2025, the Company changed its name from "Janover Inc." to "DeFi Development Corp." (the "Name Change") and the ticker symbol for the Company's Common Stock changed to "DFDV" on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in accordance therewith, we file annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. The SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. The address of the SEC's website is *www.sec.gov*. We make available free of charge on or through our website our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with or otherwise furnish it to the SEC. Any statement contained herein or in any document incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this prospectus to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document that also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or replaces such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed to constitute a part of this prospectus, except as so modified or superseded.

NS Corp purchased 2,216,137 shares of Common Stock and 4,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for $1,746,765 utilizing funds contributed by its controlling stockholder. The aggregate purchase price was $4,000,000. The transactions under the Purchase Agreement constituted a change in control of the Company.

***Change in Management***

 ****

Effective as of April 4, 2025, Samuel Haskell, Marcelo Lemos and Ned Siegel resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") and, to the extent applicable, all committees thereof. The Directors' resignations were not related to any disagreement with the Company.

Mr. Han began his career in equity research at Goldman Sachs and later served as an investor at Nezu Asia Capital and Driehaus Capital.

***The SOL Strategy***

 ****

The Company has adopted a treasury policy under which the principal holding in its treasury reserve on the balance sheet will be allocated to digital assets, starting with Solana by applying a proven public-market treasury model to an asset that's earlier in its lifecycle, structurally reflexive, and vastly underexposed as compared to Bitcoins. The Board approved the Company's new treasury policy on April 4, 2025, authorizing long-term accumulation of SOL. The Company also aims to operate one or more SOL validators, enabling it to stake its treasury assets, participate in securing the network, and earn rewards that can be reinvested.

***Convertible Notes and Warrants***

 ****

On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with the investors identified on the signature pages thereto (the "Investors"), pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors $41,950,000 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible notes, or the Notes, which are convertible into the Common Stock, together with warrants issued for each $1,000 in principal amount of convertible notes purchased to purchase (1) approximately 58.34 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $17.14 per share, or Warrant 1, and (2) approximately 46.66 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $21.43 per share, or Warrant 2.

*Convertible Note*

 

The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.5% per year, paid in cash quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, and mature on April 6, 2030. The Notes are convertible at any time prior to the Maturity Date (as defined therein), conditioned on the requirement that the Company's market capitalization equaled or exceeded $100 million on the day prior to the conversion date ("Market Capitalization Condition"). The conversion price has been set at $9.74, the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the date that the Company's market capitalization first exceeded $100 million. The conversion price will not be adjusted, except for customary anti-dilution and dividend protection. Conversion of the Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, at the time of conversion will be settled in shares of Common Stock.

The holders of the Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on April 6, 2028. In addition, the Company may redeem the notes on or after April 6, 2028 if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The Notes provide that the holder may not convert any portion of such holder's Notes to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after conversion, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion.

The Notes contain certain other customary covenants and customary events of default provisions.

*Warrants*

 

The Warrants exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance. The Exercise Prices (as defined in the Warrants) are subject to adjustments upon the issuance of stock dividends, and subdivision or combinations of shares of Common Stock by the Company.

Warrants for certain investors provide that the holder may not exercise any portion of such holder's Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

*Registration Rights*

 

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreements, the Company agreed to enter into a customary registration rights agreement with the Investors within 30 business days of the date of the Securities Purchase Agreement.

***Change of Auditors***

 ****

dbbmckennon, an independent registered public accounting firm, resigned as our independent registered public accounting firm on April 21, 2025, and we appointed Wolf & Company, P.C., as our independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of April 21, 2025, to audit and report on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The change of auditors was due to the specific subject matter expertise required to audit the Company's new business strategy and crypto treasury (Solana or SOL) related assets. The audit reports on the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, (i) there were no disagreements, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, between the Company and its auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of the Auditor, would have caused the Auditor to make reference to the subject matter of such disagreements in connection with its reports on the Company's financial statements for such years and interim period, and (ii) there were no reportable events, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

***May PIPE Transaction***

 ****

On May 1, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "May Securities Purchase Agreement") with the investors identified on the signature pages thereto (the "PIPE Investors") and a related registration rights agreement ("RRA") in connection with the issuance and sale in a private placement of the following securities to the PIPE Investors for gross proceeds of approximately $24.0 million: (i) 2,210,866 shares (the "May Shares") of the Company's Common Stock and (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,453,753 shares of Common Stock (the "Pre-Funded Warrant Shares") at an exercise price of approximately $0.0014 per share. The purchase price for one share of Common Stock was approximately $6.57 and the purchase price for one Pre-Funded Warrant was $6.57 per share.

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable and will not expire until exercised in full. The exercise price and number of Pre-Funded Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price. The Pre-Funded Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time by means of a "cashless exercise." The Pre-Funded Warrants for certain PIPE Investors provide that the holder may not exercise any portion of such holder's Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

Pursuant to the terms of the May Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company is prohibited from issuing, entering into any agreement to issue or announcing the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible or exercisable into Common Stock for a period commencing on the date of the May Securities Purchase Agreement, and expiring the earlier of (a) 60 days after the closing date of the offering and (b) 30 days following the effective date of a shelf registration statement of the Company registering the resale of the May Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, subject to certain exceptions for issuances in connection with previously issued securities, stock split or similar transactions, in connection with the Company's equity plans, at a price per share of greater than $11.43 per share, or under at-the-market offering agreements.

Under the RRA, the Company agreed to file a registration statement for the resale of the May Shares and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares within 30 days of the closing under the May Securities Purchase Agreement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective within as soon as practicable after filing.

On June 2, 2025, the Company filed an information statement on Form DEF14C informing stockholders that holders of approximately 92.31% of the outstanding voting power of the Company have approved the issuance of shares of common Stock in excess of 19.99% of the Company's issued and outstanding Common Stock as the date of the May Purchase Agreement, at prices that are less than the lower of (i) the closing price of the Common Stock immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities and (ii) the average closing price of the Common Stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement for the issuance of such securities on the date of entry into the May Purchase Agreement, pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). The stockholder approval for such actions became effective on June 22, 2025.

***Asset Purchase Agreement***

 ****

On May 1, 2025, the Company simultaneously (i) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Solsync Solutions Partnership, an Alaska general partnership ("Seller"), and Parker White, the sole partner of the Seller pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from the Seller (the "Acquisition") a "validator" on the Solana blockchain ecosystem and two nodes under the names "BullMoose Systems" and "Strawberry Siren" (the "Purchased Assets", and also referred to as "Business") and (ii) closed the Acquisition (the "Closing"). Following the Closing, the Purchased Assets and the Business are now held by the Company.

The consideration paid by the Company to the Seller for the Purchased Assets was an aggregate purchase price (the "Purchase Price") comprised of: (a) Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) paid in cash at Closing, and (b) Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000) worth of the Company's newly issued shares amounting to 604,884 restricted Common Stock (the "Share Consideration"), which was based upon the daily volume-weighted average price of our Common Stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market for the period from April 7, 2025 through the date of closing, or $4.96. The Share Consideration was issued to the Seller at Closing and consists of restricted securities that do not carry any registration rights requiring the filing of any registration statement.

Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, as of the Closing, the Company and Seller also entered into an assignment and assumption agreement to effect the transfer of the Purchased Assets, as well as an IP assignment agreement in connection with Buyer and Seller providing interim services to each other after the Closing.

***Forward Stock Split***

 ****

Effective May 20, 2025, we approved a 7-for-1 Stock Split of our Common Stock. As a result, each holder of record of Common Stock as of the close of business on May 19, 2025 received six additional shares of Common Stock. The $0.00001 par value per share remained unchanged. Unless otherwise stated, disclosures in this prospectus have been updated to reflect the Stock Split.

 ***Equity Line of Credit***

 ****

On June 11, 2025, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement with RK Capital Management LLC and its affiliates (each, the "ELOC Investor"), pursuant to which the ELOC Investor has committed to purchase, subject to certain limitations, up to $1 billion of our common stock, which may be increased to up to an aggregate of $5 billion of common stock upon mutual agreement by the parties at a price per share calculated based on a discount to recent trading prices of the common stock equal to 98.75% of the time weighted average price ("TWAP") per share of our common stock, and 98.0% of the TWAP for certain intraday purchase.

**Information Regarding our Capitalization**

As of June 20, 2025, we had 14,740,779 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Additional information regarding our issued and outstanding securities may be found under "*Description of Securities*."

Unless otherwise specifically stated, information throughout this prospectus does not assume the exercise of outstanding options or warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock and gives effect to the Stock Split.

**Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company**

We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the U.S. federal securities laws. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.235 billion or more; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under applicable SEC rules. We expect that we will remain an emerging growth company for the foreseeable future but cannot retain our emerging growth company status indefinitely and will no longer qualify as an emerging growth company on or before the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from specified disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.

These exemptions include:

● being permitted to provide only two years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced "*Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations*" disclosure;

● not being required to comply with the requirement of auditor attestation of our internal controls over financial reporting;

● not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

● reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and

● not being required to hold a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

An emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act to comply with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will not be required to adopt new or revised accounting standards on the dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public reporting companies.

**Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company**

We are also a "smaller reporting company" as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the end of the fiscal year in which (1) we have a public common equity float of more than $250 million, or (2) we have annual revenues for the most recently completed fiscal year of more than $100 million and a public common equity float or public float of more than $700 million. We also would not be eligible for status as a smaller reporting company if we become an investment company, an asset-backed issuer or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company.

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different from what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

 Stock outstanding as of June 20, 2025, and excludes the following:

Up to 1,112,180 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under our Equity Incentive Plan.

**RISK FACTORS**

*Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described under "Risk Factors" in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K as supplemented or updated in our most recent quarterly report on Form 10-Q, any current report on Form 8-K, as well as any accompanying prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus and in any accompanying prospectus supplement, including our financial statements and related notes, before deciding whether to purchase our securities.*

*Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by any or all of these risks or by additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial that may adversely affect us in the future. The Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, as amended (the "Form 10-K") with the following risk factors. These risk factors should be read in conjunction with the risk factors included in the Form 10-K.*

**Risks Related to This Offering and Ownership of Our Common Stock**

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

 ****

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market could occur at any time, subject to the restrictions and limitations described below. If our stockholders sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell, substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market following this offering, the market price of our Common Stock could decline significantly.

We have reserved 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock, adjusted for the stock split, for issuance under our Equity Incentive Plan, and as of the date of this prospectus we have 1,112,180 available to be issued. 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.

Such shares are not currently registered on Form S-8 and will not be available for sale in the public market subject to vesting arrangements and exercise of options, the lock-up agreements described above and, in the case of our affiliates, the restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

If we were to register the resale of those shares, they could be freely sold in the public market without limitation. If these additional shares are sold, or if it is perceived that they will be sold, in the public market, the trading price of our Common Stock could decline.

***Our financial results and the market price of our Common Stock may be affected by the prices of SOL.***

 ****

As part of our capital allocation strategy for assets that are not required to provide working capital for our ongoing operations, we have invested and will continue to invest in SOL. As of the date of this prospectus, we had approximately $82 million SOL, including staking rewards. The price of SOL has historically been subject to dramatic price fluctuations and is highly volatile. Moreover, digital assets, such as SOL, are relatively novel and the application of securities laws and other regulations to such assets is unclear in many respects. It is possible that regulators may interpret laws in a manner that adversely affects the liquidity or value of SOL.

Any decrease in the fair value of SOL below our carrying value for such assets could require us to incur a loss due to the decrease in fair market value, and such charge could be material to our financial results for the applicable reporting period, which may create significant volatility in our reported earnings. Any decrease in reported earnings or increased volatility of such earnings could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our Common Stock. In addition, the application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, with respect to SOL, may change in the future and could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and the market price of our Common Stock.

In addition, if investors view the value of our Common Stock as dependent upon or linked to the value or change in the value of our SOL holdings, the price of SOL may significantly influence the market price of our Common Stock.

***The price of our Common Stock has been and may continue to be volatile and fluctuate substantially, which could result in substantial losses for purchasers of our Common Stock.***

 ****

Our stock price has been and is likely to continue to be volatile. The stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. With the adoption of our new SOL treasury strategy, we expect to see additional volatility. As a result of this volatility, you may not be able to sell your Common Stock. The market price for our Common Stock may be influenced by many factors, including:

● our Solana treasury strategy;

● the success of competitive products, services or technologies;

● regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries;

● the recruitment or departure of key personnel;

● actual or anticipated changes in estimates as to financial results, development timelines or recommendations by securities analysts;

● variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;

● general economic, industry and market conditions; and

● the other factors described in this "Risk Factors" section and in the "Risk Factors" section of our other SEC filings, including our most recent annual report on Form 10-K.

 ***Our management may invest or otherwise use the proceeds of any offering by the Company in ways with which you may not agree or in ways that may not yield a return.***

 ****

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from any offering by the Company and could use the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our Common Stock. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline and delay the development of additional products and services our pursuit of our new SOL strategy. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. We will not receive any proceeds from sales by the Selling Stockholders.

***We may use the net proceeds from any offering by the Company to purchase additional Solana, the price of which has been, and will likely continue to be, highly volatile.***

 ****

We may use the net proceeds from any offering by the Company to purchase additional Solana. Solana is a highly volatile asset that has traded between $100 and $290 per Solana on Coinbase in the 12 months preceding the date of this prospectus. More recently, during the first calendar quarter of 2025, Solana traded between approximately $120 and $270 per Solana. In addition, Solana does not pay interest, but staking rewards can be earned on Solana. The ability to generate a return on investment from the net proceeds from any offering by the Company will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of Solana following our purchases of Solana with the net proceeds from any offering by the Company. Future fluctuations in Solana's trading prices may result in our converting Solana purchased with the net proceeds from this offering into cash with a value substantially below the net proceeds from such an offering. We will not receive any proceeds from sales by the Selling Stockholders.

***Our Solana holdings are less liquid than our existing cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.***

 ****

Historically, the crypto markets have been characterized by significant volatility in price, limited liquidity and trading volumes compared to sovereign currencies markets, relative anonymity, a developing regulatory landscape, potential susceptibility to market abuse and manipulation, compliance and internal control failures at exchanges, and various other risks inherent in its entirely electronic, virtual form and decentralized network. During times of market instability, we may not be able to sell our Solana at favorable prices or at all. Further, Solana we hold with our custodians and transact with our trade execution partners does not enjoy the same protections as are available to cash or securities deposited with or transacted by institutions subject to regulation by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation. Additionally, we may be unable to enter into term loans or other capital raising transactions collateralized by our unencumbered Solana or otherwise generate funds using our Solana holdings, including in particular during times of market instability or when the price of Solana has declined significantly. If we are unable to sell our Solana, enter into additional capital raising transactions using Solana as collateral, or otherwise generate funds using our Solana holdings, or if we are forced to sell our Solana at a significant loss, in order to meet our working capital requirements, our business and financial condition could be negatively impacted.

***We may be subject to regulatory developments related to crypto assets and crypto asset markets, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.***

 ****

As Solana and other digital assets are relatively novel and the application of state and federal securities laws and other laws and regulations to digital assets is unclear in certain respects, it is possible that regulators in the United States or foreign countries may interpret or apply existing laws and regulations in a manner that adversely affects the price of Solana. The U.S. federal government, states, regulatory agencies, and foreign countries may also enact new laws and regulations, or pursue regulatory, legislative, enforcement or judicial actions, that could materially impact the price of Solana or the ability of individuals or institutions such as us to own or transfer Solana.

If Solana is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, the additional regulatory restrictions imposed by such a determination could adversely affect the market price of Solana and in turn adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock. Moreover, the risks of us engaging in a Solana treasury strategy have created, and could continue to create complications due to the lack of experience that third parties have with companies engaging in such a strategy, such as increased costs of director and officer liability insurance or the potential inability to obtain such coverage on acceptable terms in the future.

***Regulatory change reclassifying Solana as a security could lead to our falling within the definition of "investment company" under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act, and could adversely affect the market price of Solana and the market price of our Common Stock.***

 ****

Under Sections 3(a)(1)(A) and (C) of the 1940 Act, a company generally will be deemed to be an "investment company" for purposes of the 1940 Act if (1) it is, or holds itself out as being, engaged primarily, or proposes to engage primarily, in the business of investing, reinvesting or trading in securities or (2) it is engaged, or proposes to engage, in the business of investing, reinvesting, owning, holding or trading in securities and it owns or proposes to acquire investment securities having a value exceeding 40% of the value of its total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items) on an unconsolidated basis. We do not believe that we are an "investment company," as such term is defined in the 1940 Act, and are not registered as an "investment company" under the 1940 Act as of the date of this prospectus.

While the SEC has not stated a view as to whether Solana is or is not a "security" for purposes of the federal securities laws, a determination by the SEC or a court of competent jurisdiction that Solana is a security could lead to our meeting the definition of "investment company" under the 1940 Act, if the portion of our assets that consists of investments in Solana exceeds the 40% limit prescribed in the 1940 Act, which would subject us to significant additional regulatory requirements that could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations and may also require us to change the manner in which we conduct our business.

We monitor our assets and income in order to conduct our business activities in a manner such that we do not fall within the definition of "investment company" under the 1940 Act or would qualify under one of the exemptions or exclusions provided by the 1940 Act and corresponding SEC rules. If Solana is determined to be a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, we would take steps to reduce our holdings of Solana as a percentage of our total assets. These steps may include, among others, selling Solana that we might otherwise hold for the long term and deploying our cash in assets that are not considered to be investment securities under the 1940 Act, in which case we may be forced to sell our Solana at unattractive prices. We may also seek to acquire additional assets that are not considered to be investment securities under the 1940 Act, and we may need to incur debt, issue additional equity or enter into other financing arrangements that are not otherwise attractive to our business. Any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, we can make no assurance that we would successfully be able to take the necessary steps to avoid meeting the definition of "investment company" under the 1940 Act and becoming subject to its requirements. If Solana is determined to constitute a security for purposes of the federal securities laws, and if we are not able to come within an available exemption or exclusion under the 1940 Act, then we would have to register as an investment company and require us to change the manner in which we conduct our business. In addition, such a determination could adversely affect the market price of Solana and in turn adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.

***We are not subject to legal and regulatory obligations that apply to investment companies such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds, or to obligations applicable to investment advisers.***

 ****

Mutual funds, exchange-traded funds and their directors and management are subject to extensive regulation as "investment companies" and "investment advisers" under U.S. federal and state law; this regulation is intended for the benefit and protection of investors. We are not subject to, and do not otherwise voluntarily comply with, these laws and regulations. This means, among other things, that the execution of or changes to our Treasury Reserve Policy or our Solana strategy, our use of leverage, the manner in which our Solana is custodied, our ability to engage in transactions with affiliated parties and our operating and investment activities generally are not subject to the extensive legal and regulatory requirements and prohibitions that apply to investment companies and investment advisers. For example, although a significant change to our Treasury Reserve Policy would require the approval of our board of directors, no stockholder or regulatory approval would be necessary. Consequently, our board of directors has broad discretion over the investment, leverage and cash management policies it authorizes, whether in respect of our Solana holdings or other activities we may pursue, and has the power to change our current policies, including our strategy of acquiring and holding Solana. See "Use of Proceeds."

***If we or our third-party service providers experience a security breach or cyberattack and unauthorized parties obtain access to our Solana, or if our private keys are lost or destroyed, or other similar circumstances or events occur, we may lose some or all of our Solana and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.***

 ****

Substantially all of the Solana we own is held in custody accounts at U.S.-based institutional-grade digital asset custodians. Security breaches and cyberattacks are of particular concern with respect to our Solana. Solana and other blockchain-based cryptocurrencies and the entities that provide services to participants in the Solana ecosystem have been, and may in the future be, subject to security breaches, cyberattacks, or other malicious activities. For example, in October 2021 it was reported that hackers exploited a flaw in the account recovery process and stole from the accounts of at least 6,000 customers of the Coinbase exchange, although the flaw was subsequently fixed and Coinbase reimbursed affected customers. Similarly, in November 2022, hackers exploited weaknesses in the security architecture of the FTX Trading digital asset exchange and reportedly stole over $400 million in digital assets from customers. A successful security breach or cyberattack could result in:

● a partial or total loss of our Solana in a manner that may not be covered by insurance or the liability provisions of the custody agreements with the custodians who hold our Solana;

● harm to our reputation and brand;

● improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable data privacy and other laws; or

● significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, contractual and financial exposure.

Further, any actual or perceived data security breach or cybersecurity attack directed at other companies with digital assets or companies that operate digital asset networks, regardless of whether we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of confidence in the broader Solana ecosystem or in the use of the Solana network to conduct financial transactions, which could negatively impact us.

Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries, including industries related to Solana, are increasing in frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded and organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper or illegal access to systems and information (including personal data and digital assets), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or partners. We may experience breaches of our security measures due to human error, malfeasance, insider threats, system errors or vulnerabilities or other irregularities. In particular, we expect that unauthorized parties will attempt to gain access to our systems and facilities, as well as those of our partners and third-party service providers, through various means, such as hacking, social engineering, phishing and fraud. Threats can come from a variety of sources, including criminal hackers, hacktivists, state-sponsored intrusions, industrial espionage, and insiders. In addition, certain types of attacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable, sometimes for extended periods of time, or until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures. Further, there has been an increase in such activities due to the increase in work-from-home arrangements. The risk of cyberattacks could also be increased by cyberwarfare in connection with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts, or other future conflicts, including potential proliferation of malware into systems unrelated to such conflicts. Any future breach of our operations or those of others in the Solana industry, including third-party services on which we rely, could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

***We face other risks related to our SOL treasury reserve business model.***

 ****

Our SOL treasury reserve business model exposes us to various risks, including the following:

● SOL and other digital assets are subject to significant legal, commercial, regulatory, and technical uncertainty, and our SOL strategy subjects us to enhanced regulatory oversight;

● regulatory changes could impact our ability to operate validators or receive rewards;

● regulatory scrutiny of the Company's activities may increase, potentially limiting our operations;

● potential litigation risks exist related to smart contract vulnerabilities, validator operations, or our business activities;

● uncertainty around SOL's regulatory status may impact our ability to list on certain exchanges;

● changes in political administration may not guarantee a favorable regulatory environment for SOL;

● future SEC actions or court decisions could retroactively classify SOL as a security, potentially leading to penalties or forced unwinding of transactions; and

● increased regulatory focus on Layer-1 blockchains beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum could result in new compliance requirements.

**USE OF PROCEEDS**

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholders.

**THE SELLING STOCKHOLDERS**

References to a "Selling Stockholder" or the "Selling Stockholders" in this prospectus mean the entities listed in the table below, and the donees, transferees, assignees, successors, heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, pledgees and others who may later come to hold any of the Common Stock described in this prospectus as a result of a transfer not involving a public sale.

This prospectus relates to the possible resale by the Selling Stockholders of up to 8,711,277 shares of Common Stock that are issuable under Notes and the Warrants and 3,664,619 shares of Common Stock that were or can be obtained by the Selling Stockholders in the May PIPE Transaction. For additional information regarding the issuances of the Notes and Warrants, and the May PIPE Transaction see "*Prospectus Summary — Recent Developments-Convertible Notes and Warrants*" and see "*Prospectus Summary — Recent Developments-May PIPE Transaction*". For additional information regarding the Stock Split, see "*Prospectus Summary — Forward Stock Split".* The Selling Stockholders may offer the shares of Common Stock for resale from time to time pursuant to this prospectus. Each of the Selling Stockholders may also sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or a portion of its shares of Common Stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act or pursuant to another effective registration statement covering those shares. Information about the Selling Stockholders may change over time.

We do not know when or in what amounts the Selling Stockholders may offer the shares of Common Stock for sale, and, other than as set forth herein, we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with the Selling Stockholders regarding the sale or other disposition of any of the shares of Common Stock. Because the Selling Stockholders may offer all, some or none of the shares pursuant to the offering, no definitive estimate as to the number of shares that will be held by the Selling Stockholders after the offering can be provided. Except for the ownership of the Notes and the Warrants, the Selling Stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to shares of Common Stock and the right to acquire such voting or investment power within 60 days through the exercise of any option, warrant or other right. The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the names of the Selling Stockholders, the number of shares of Common Stock that the Selling Stockholders may offer pursuant to this prospectus and the number of shares of Common Stock owned by the Selling Stockholders before and after the offering. Solely for purposes of the table below, we have assumed that the Selling Stockholders will sell all of the shares of Common Stock that the Selling Stockholders currently hold and will make no other purchases or sales of Common Stock. The table further assumes that the Market Capitalization Condition has been met, and there are no beneficial ownership limitations on the conversion of the Notes and Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants. For more information regarding the Market Capitalization Condition and beneficial ownership limitations, see "Recent Developments". The percentages below also assume the full conversion of the Notes, Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants and account for the consummation of the Stock Split and that accordingly, 24,905,809 shares of Common Stock are outstanding as of the date of this prospectus.

**DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK**

**General**

The following description summarizes some of the terms of our capital stock. Because it is only a summary, it does not contain all the information that may be important to you and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended ("Certificate of Incorporation") and amended and restated bylaws ("Bylaws"), which are filed as exhibits to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and are incorporated by reference herein. We encourage you to read our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws for additional information.

As of the date of this prospectus, our total authorized capital stock was 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.00001 par value per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.00001 par value per share, of which 10,000 have been designated Series A Preferred Stock.

As of the date of this prospectus, there were (a) 14,740,779 shares of our Common Stock are issued and outstanding held by approximately 2,610 holders of record; and (b) 10,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding, held by Mr. Joseph Onorati, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Mr. Parker White, our Chief Operating Officer and Chief Investment Officer.

***Common Stock***

 ****

Holders of shares of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, and do not have cumulative voting rights. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends if any, as may be declared from time to time by our Board out of funds legally available for dividend payments. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and nonassessable, and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon completion of this offering will be, upon receipt of the payment therefor as described in this prospectus, fully paid and nonassessable. The holders of Common Stock have no preferences or rights of cumulative voting, conversion, pre-emptive or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our Common Stock. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs, holders of shares of Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in any of our assets remaining after payment or provision for payment of all of our debts and obligations and after liquidation payments to holders of outstanding shares of preferred stock, if any. As of June 20, 2025, we had 14,740,779 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

***Preferred Stock***

 ****

We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of "blank check" preferred stock. Our Board has the authority, without further stockholder authorization, to issue from time-to-time shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the terms, limitations, relative rights and preferences and variations of each series. Although we have no present plans to issue additional shares of preferred stock, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to the holders of Common Stock, and could adversely affect the rights and powers, including voting rights, of our Common Stock, and could have the effect of delaying, deterring or preventing a change of control of us or an unsolicited acquisition proposal.

***Series A Preferred Stock***

 ****

Pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designation filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on January 3, 2022, we are authorized to issue up to 100,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a stated value of $0.00001 per share.

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 10,000 votes. The holders of shares of Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on all matters on which our Common Stock shall be entitled to vote unless prohibited by law or as set forth in the Certificate of Designation.

The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to dividends. Upon the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, voluntary or involuntary, the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock would be entitled to receive the initial stated value of our preferred stock.

If any shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be converted, redeemed or reacquired by the Company, such shares shall resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock.

As of the date of this prospectus, there were 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, all of which are held by Mr. Joseph Onorati, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Mr. Parker White, our Chief Operating Officer and Chief Investment Officer.

**Outstanding Stock Options**

As of June 20, 2025, we had 1,381,198 outstanding stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $3.65 per share, with a weighted average remaining contractual life of 9.20 years.

**Restricted Stock Units**

As of June 20, 2025, we had 242,375 outstanding RSUs, which were granted to the Board and one employee. These RSUs will vest over a period of 4 years.

**Convertible Notes and Warrants**

On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investors $41,950,000 million in aggregate principal amount of Notes, which are convertible into the Company's Common Stock, together with warrants issued for each $1,000 in principal amount of convertible notes purchased to purchase (1) approximately 58.34 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $17.14 per share, or Warrant 1, and (2) approximately 46.66 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $21.43 per share, or Warrant 2.

*Convertible Note*

 

The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.5% per year, paid in cash quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, and mature on April 6, 2030. The Notes are convertible at any time prior to the Maturity Date (as defined therein), conditioned on the requirement that the Company's market capitalization equaled or exceeded $100 million on the day prior to the conversion date. The conversion price has been set at $9.74 the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on The Nasdaq Stock Market on the date that the Company's market capitalization first exceeded $100 million. The conversion price will not be adjusted, except for customary anti-dilution and dividend protection. Conversion of the Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, at the time of conversion will be settled in shares of Common Stock.

The holders of the Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on April 6, 2028. In addition, the Company may redeem the notes on or after April 6, 2028 if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days at a price equal to 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The Notes provide that the holder may not convert any portion of such holder's Notes to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after conversion, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion.

The Notes contain certain other customary covenants and customary events of default provisions.

*Warrants*

 

The Warrants exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance. The Exercise Prices (as defined in the Warrants) are subject to adjustments upon the issuance of stock dividends, and subdivision or combinations of shares of Common Stock by the Company.

Warrants for certain investors provide that the holder may not exercise any portion of such holder's Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

*Pre-Funded Warrants*

 

On May 1, 2025, the Company entered into the May Securities Purchase Agreement with the PIPE Investors and the RRA in connection with the issuance and sale in a private placement of the following securities to the PIPE Investors for gross proceeds of approximately $24.0 million: (i) 2,210,866 May Shares and (ii) the Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to 1,453,753 Pre-Funded Warrant Shares at an exercise price of approximately $0.0014 per share. The purchase price for one share of Common Stock was approximately $6.57 and the purchase price for one Pre-Funded Warrant was $6.57 per share.

The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable and will not expire until exercised in full. The exercise price and number of Pre-Funded Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our Common Stock and the exercise price. The Pre-Funded Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time by means of a "cashless exercise." The Pre-Funded Warrants for certain PIPE Investors provide that the holder may not exercise any portion of such holder's Pre-Funded Warrants to the extent that the holder, together with its affiliates, would beneficially own more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the holder, 9.99%) of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days' prior notice from the holder to the Company, the holder may increase the beneficial ownership limitation to up to 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise.

***Forward Stock Split***

 ****

Effective May 20, 2025, we approved a 7-for-1 Stock Split of our Common Stock. As a result, each holder of record of Common Stock as of the close of business on May 19, 2025 received six additional shares of Common Stock. The $0.00001 par value per share remained unchanged. Unless otherwise stated, disclosures in this prospectus have been updated to reflect the Stock Split.

**Delaware Anti-Takeover Statutes**

We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a "business combination" with any "interested stockholder" for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder unless the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of our Board or unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A "business combination" includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the "interested stockholder" and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an "interested stockholder" is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.

**Choice of Forum**

Although our Certificate of Incorporation contains the choice of forum provision described above, it is possible that a court could find that such a provision is inapplicable for a particular claim or action or that such provision is unenforceable. This choice of forum provision may limit a stockholder's ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or any of our directors, officers, other employees, or stockholders, which may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims, although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

**Authorized but Unissued Shares**

The authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock or preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing standards of any exchange on which our shares are listed. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate finance transactions, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock could make it more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us through a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

**Election of Directors by Plurality of Shares, Vacancies**

Our By-laws provide for the election of directors by a plurality of votes cast by the shares present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the stockholders and entitled to vote thereon, subject to a quorum being present at such meeting. There is no cumulative voting; therefore, directors may be elected with a vote of holders of less than a majority of the outstanding Common Stock.

Our By-laws also provide that vacancies occurring on our Board may be filled by the affirmative votes of a majority of the remaining members of our Board or by the sole remaining director, and not by our stockholders. Such provisions in our corporate organizational documents and under Delaware law may prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to change our management or hinder efforts to acquire a controlling interest in us. The inability to make changes to our Board could prevent or discourage an attempt to take control of the Company through a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

**Special Meeting of Stockholders, Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations, Stockholder Action**

Our By-laws provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders can only be called by our Board. Stockholders at a special meeting may only consider matters set forth in the notice of the meeting. These provisions could have the effect of delaying until the next stockholder meeting stockholder actions that are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities.

**Amendments**

Our By-laws may be amended or repealed by a majority vote of our Board or the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the votes that all our stockholders would be entitled to cast in any election of Directors.

**Transfer Agent and Registrar**

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Colonial Stock Transfer Company, Inc. The address for Colonial Stock Transfer Company, Inc. is 7840 S 700 E, Sandy, Utah 84070, and the telephone number is (801) 355-5740.

**PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION**

The Selling Stockholders, which as used in this prospectus includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling our Common Stock received after the date of this prospectus from a Selling Stockholder as a gift, pledge, distribution or other transfer not involving a sale, may sell the applicable securities offered by this prospectus from time to time in one or more transactions, including without limitation:

● directly to one or more purchasers;

● through agents;

● to or through underwriters, brokers or dealers;

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

In addition, the manner in which the Selling Stockholders may sell some or all of the securities covered by this prospectus includes, without limitation, through:

● On The Nasdaq Capital Market, in the over-the-counter market or on any other national securities exchange on which our securities are listed or traded;

● one or more underwritten offerings;

● block trades in which a broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent, but may position or resell a portion of the block, as principal, in order to facilitate the transaction;

● purchases by a broker-dealer, as principal, and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

● ordinary brokerage transactions (at customary brokerage commissions, unless set forth otherwise in a prospectus supplement) and transactions in which a broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

● a combination of any such methods of distribution; or

● any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

A Selling Stockholder that is an entity may elect to make a distribution of shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus to its members, partners or stockholders. In such events, we may file a prospectus supplement to the extent required by law in order to permit the distributees to use the prospectus to resell the securities acquired in the distribution. The Selling Stockholders may also sell Common Stock under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus. There can be no assurance that the Selling Stockholders will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. The Selling Stockholders may also transfer shares of our Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholders may also enter into derivative or hedging transactions. For example, the Selling Stockholders may:

● enter into transactions with a broker-dealer or affiliate thereof in connection with which such broker-dealer or affiliate will engage in short sales of the Common Stock pursuant to this prospectus, in which case such broker-dealer or affiliate may use shares of Common Stock received from us or one or more of the Selling Stockholders to close out its short positions;

● sell securities short and redeliver such shares to close out our or one or more of the Selling Stockholders' short positions;

● enter into option or other types of transactions that require us or one or more of the Selling Stockholders to deliver Common Stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who will then resell or transfer the Common Stock under this prospectus; or

● loan or pledge the Common Stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus.

In addition, the Selling Stockholders may enter into derivative or hedging transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with such a transaction, the third parties may sell the applicable securities covered by and pursuant to this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement. If so, the third party may use securities borrowed from us or one or more Selling Stockholders or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from us or one or more Selling Stockholders to close out any related short positions. We or the Selling Stockholders may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus and an applicable prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement.

One or more of the Selling Stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in shares of our Common Stock beneficially held by it and, if such Selling Stockholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such shares of Common Stock from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment or supplement to this prospectus amending the list of the Selling Stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors-in-interest as the Selling Stockholder under this prospectus.

The offer and sale of the securities described in this prospectus by the Selling Stockholders, the underwriters or the third parties described above may be effected from time to time in one or more transactions, including privately negotiated transactions, either:

● at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed;

● at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

● at prices related to the prevailing market prices; or

● at negotiated prices.

The aggregate proceeds to the Selling Stockholders from the sale of shares of our Common Stock offered by them will be the purchase price of such shares of our Common Stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The Selling Stockholders each reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of shares of our Common Stock to be made directly or through agents.

We will not receive any of the proceeds from any offering by a Selling Stockholder. We will bear all fees and costs relating to all of the securities being registered under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

To the extent required, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to describe a specific plan of distribution.

**Underwriting Compensation**

Any public offering price and any fees, discounts, commissions, concessions or other items constituting compensation allowed or reallowed or paid to underwriters, dealers or agents may be changed from time to time. The Selling Stockholders and any underwriters, dealers and agents and remarketing firms that participate in the distribution of the offered securities may be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts or commissions that such underwriters, dealers and agents and remarketing firms receive and any profits they receive on the resale of the offered securities may be treated as underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We have advised the Selling Stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of securities in the market and to the activities of the Selling Stockholders and their respective affiliates. We will identify any underwriters, agents or dealers and describe their fees, commissions or discounts in the applicable prospectus supplement.

**Underwriters and Agents**

If underwriters are used in a sale, they will acquire the offered securities for their own account. The underwriters may resell the offered securities in one or more transactions, including negotiated transactions. These sales may be made at a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of the sale, at prices related to such prevailing market price or at negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may offer the securities to the public either through an underwriting syndicate represented by one or more managing underwriters or through one or more underwriter(s). The underwriters in any particular offering will be identified in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Unless otherwise specified in connection with any particular offering of securities, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase the offered securities will be subject to certain conditions contained in an underwriting agreement that the one or more of the Selling Stockholders, will enter into with the underwriters at the time of the sale to them. The underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of the securities of the series offered if any of the securities are purchased, unless otherwise specified in connection with any particular offering of securities. Any initial offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed, reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

Securities may be sold directly by us or the Selling Stockholders or through agents designated by us or one or more of the Selling Stockholders from time to time. Any agent involved in the offer or sale constituting a distribution of the securities in respect of which this prospectus and, if applicable, a prospectus supplement is delivered will be named, and any commissions payable by us or the Selling Stockholders to such agent will be set forth, in such prospectus supplement. Unless otherwise indicated in the prospectus supplement, any such agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealer acting on behalf of such Selling Stockholders and are informing the Selling Stockholders of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

**Dealers**

The Selling Stockholders may sell the offered securities to dealers as principals. The Selling Stockholders may negotiate and pay dealers' commissions, discounts or concessions for their services. The dealer may then resell such securities to the public either at varying prices to be determined by the dealer or at a fixed offering price agreed to with us or one or more of the Selling Stockholders at the time of resale. Dealers engaged by us or the Selling Stockholders may allow other dealers to participate in resales.

**Direct Sales**

The Selling Stockholders may choose to sell the offered securities directly to multiple purchasers or a single purchaser. In this case, no underwriters or agents would be involved.

**Indemnification; Other Relationships**

We or the Selling Stockholders may agree to indemnify underwriters, dealers and agents against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and to make contribution to them in connection with those liabilities. Underwriters, dealers and agents, and their affiliates, may engage in transactions with, or perform services for us, and our affiliates, in the ordinary course of business, including commercial banking transactions and services.

**Market Making, Stabilization and Other Transactions**

If the offered securities are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and other factors. While it is possible that an underwriter could inform us that it intends to make a market in the offered securities, such underwriter would not be obligated to do so, and any such market-making could be discontinued at any time without notice. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to whether an active trading market will develop for the offered securities. We have no current plans for listing of the preferred stock on any securities exchange or quotation system; any such listing with respect to any preferred stock will be described in the applicable prospectus supplement.

Underwriters may purchase and sell shares of our Common Stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve syndicate sales of Common Stock in excess of the number of shares to be purchased by the underwriters in the offering, which creates a syndicate short position. "Covered" short sales are sales of shares made in an amount up to the number of shares represented by the underwriters' over-allotment option. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered syndicate short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. Transactions to close out the covered syndicate short involve either purchases of the Common Stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed or the exercise of the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also make "naked" short sales of shares in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares of Common Stock in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids for or purchases of shares in the open market while the offering is in progress for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities.

In connection with any offering, the underwriters may also engage in penalty bids. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time.

**LEGAL MATTERS**

The validity of the issuance of the securities offered hereby will be passed upon for us by Perkins Coie LLP, Seattle, Washington.
