asset. We also develop and provide industry-leading <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">AI-powered</FONT> enterprise analytics software that promotes our vision of Intelligence Everywhere<SUP STYLE="font-size:75%; vertical-align:top">&#153;</SUP>, and

bitcoin acquisition strategy generally involves acquiring bitcoin with our liquid assets that exceed working capital requirements, and from time to time, subject to market conditions, issuing debt or equity securities or engaging in other capital
raising transactions with the objective of using the proceeds to purchase bitcoin. We view our bitcoin holdings as long-term holdings and expect to continue to accumulate bitcoin. We have not set any specific target for the amount of bitcoin we seek
to hold, and we will continue to monitor market conditions in determining whether to engage in additional financings to purchase additional bitcoin. This overall strategy also contemplates that we may (i)&nbsp;periodically sell bitcoin for general
corporate purposes, including to generate cash for treasury management (which may include debt repayment), or in connection with strategies that generate tax benefits in accordance with applicable law, (ii)&nbsp;enter into additional capital raising
transactions that are collateralized by our bitcoin holdings, and (iii)&nbsp;consider pursuing strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings. </P>

election of directors and significant corporate transactions, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets. Our Certificate allows holders of class B common stock to transfer shares of class B common stock, subject to the approval of

activities in the financial markets, advocacy and technology innovation. As an operating business, we are able to use cash flows as well as proceeds from equity and debt financings to accumulate bitcoin, which serves as our primary treasury reserve
asset. We also develop and provide industry-leading <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">AI-powered</FONT> enterprise analytics software that promotes our vision of Intelligence Everywhere<SUP STYLE="font-size:75%; vertical-align:top">&#153;</SUP>, and
are using our software development capabilities to develop bitcoin applications. Our software business, which we have operated for over 30 years, is our predominant operational focus, providing cash flows and enabling us to pursue our bitcoin
strategy. We believe that the combination of our operating structure, bitcoin strategy and focus on technology innovation differentiates us in the digital assets industry. </P>

(i)&nbsp;acquiring bitcoin using cash flows from operations and proceeds from equity and debt financings, (ii)&nbsp;developing product innovations that leverage Bitcoin blockchain technology, and (iii)&nbsp;periodically engaging in advocacy and
educational activities regarding the continued acceptance and value of bitcoin as an open, secure protocol for an internet-native digital asset. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our
bitcoin acquisition strategy generally involves acquiring bitcoin with our liquid assets that exceed working capital requirements, and from time to time, subject to market conditions, issuing debt or equity securities or engaging in other capital
raising transactions with the objective of using the proceeds to purchase bitcoin. We view our bitcoin holdings as long-term holdings and expect to continue to accumulate bitcoin. We have not set any specific target for the amount of bitcoin we seek
to hold, and we will continue to monitor market conditions in determining whether to engage in additional financings to purchase additional bitcoin. This overall strategy also contemplates that we may (i)&nbsp;periodically sell bitcoin for general
corporate purposes, including to generate cash for treasury management (which may include debt repayment), or in connection with strategies that generate tax benefits in accordance with applicable law, (ii)&nbsp;enter into additional capital raising
transactions that are collateralized by our bitcoin holdings, and (iii)&nbsp;consider pursuing strategies to create income streams or otherwise generate funds using our bitcoin holdings. </P>

decision to assess whether the net proceeds are being used in a manner of which you approve. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary
substantially. Our management may not apply our net proceeds in ways that ultimately increase the value of your investment. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. If we do not invest or apply the net
proceeds from this offering in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause the market price of our class A common stock to decline. </P>

$25,000 per bitcoin and above $70,000 per bitcoin on the Coinbase exchange (our principal market for bitcoin) in the 12 months preceding the date of this prospectus. In addition, bitcoin does not pay interest or other returns and so ability to
generate a return on investment from the net proceeds from this offering will depend on whether there is appreciation in the value of bitcoin following our purchases of bitcoin with the net proceeds from this offering. Future fluctuations in bitcoin
trading prices may result in our converting bitcoin purchased with the net proceeds from this offering into cash with a value substantially below the net proceeds from this offering. </P>

A common stock on July&nbsp;29, 2024 on The Nasdaq Global Select Market, and after deducting estimated commissions and estimated offering expenses, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of June&nbsp;30, 2024 would have been approximately
$(859.4)&nbsp;million, or approximately $(46.99)&nbsp;per share. This represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $119.83&nbsp;per share to the existing holders of our class A common stock and an

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have entered into a sales agreement with the Agents, under which we may offer and sell up to $2,000,000,000 of our shares of class A common stock from time
to time through the Agents acting as our sales agents. Sales of our shares of class A common stock, if any, under this prospectus will be made by any method that is deemed to be an &#147;at the market offering&#148; as defined in Rule&nbsp;415(a)(4)
under the Securities Act. We entered into the sales agreement on August&nbsp;1, 2024. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Each time we wish to issue and sell shares of our class A common
stock under the sales agreement, we will notify an Agent of the number of shares to be issued, the dates on which such sales are anticipated to be made, any limitation on the number of shares to be sold in any one day and any minimum price below
which sales may not be made. Once we have so instructed an Agent, unless such Agent declines to accept the terms of such notice, such Agent has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices
to sell such shares up to the amount specified on such terms. The obligations of an Agent under the sales agreement to sell our shares of class A common stock are subject to a number of conditions that we must meet. We will only sell shares through
one Agent on any single day. Sales pursuant to the sales agreement may be made through an affiliate of an Agent. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The settlement of sales of shares
between us and the selling agent is generally anticipated to occur on the trading day following the date on which the sale was made. Sales of our shares of class A common stock as contemplated in this prospectus will be settled through the
facilities of The Depository Trust Company or by such other means as we and the selling Agent may agree upon. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We will pay an Agent a commission of up to 2.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds we receive from each sale of our shares of class A common stock made by such
Agent or an affiliated broker-dealer of such Agent. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at
this time. In addition, we have agreed to reimburse the Agents for the fees and disbursements of Agents&#146; counsel, payable upon execution of the sales agreement, in an amount not to exceed $75,000, in addition to certain ongoing disbursements of
their legal counsel. We estimate that the total expenses for the offering, excluding any commissions or expense reimbursement payable to the Agents under the terms of the sales agreement, will be approximately $667,500. The remaining sale proceeds,
after deducting any other transaction fees, will equal our net proceeds from the sale of such shares. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A selling Agent will provide written confirmation
to us before the open of The Nasdaq Global Select Market on the day following each day on which our shares of class A common stock are sold under the sales agreement. Each confirmation will include the number of shares sold on that day, the
aggregate gross proceeds of such sales and the proceeds to us. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In connection with the sale of the shares of class A common stock on our behalf, each
selling agent will be deemed to be an &#147;underwriter&#148; within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation of such Agent will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed to indemnify the Agents against
certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. We have also agreed to contribute to payments the Agents may be required to make in respect of such liabilities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The offering of our shares of class A common stock pursuant to the sales agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i)&nbsp;the sale of all shares of class
A common stock subject to the sales agreement and (ii)&nbsp;the termination of the sales agreement as permitted therein. We and the Agents may each terminate the sales agreement at any time upon three trading days&#146; prior notice. </P>

agreement is filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. </P>
