GBTC shareholders will not need to pay any consideration, exchange or surrender existing GBTC Shares, or take any other action to receive BTC Shares.</font></p>

Grayscale currently expects the Distribution Date to be July 31, 2024, following (i) the filing and effectiveness of the BTC Trust&#x2019;s registration statement on Form 8-A to register the BTC Shares under the Exchange Act, (ii) the effectiveness of the BTC Trust&#x2019;s registration statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-277837) under the Securities Act, and (iii) the BTC Shares having been approved for listing on NYSE Arca. No assurance can be given that the Initial Distribution will occur on Grayscale&#x2019;s anticipated timeline, and Grayscale will update the market to the extent its expectations change.</font></p>

An investment in GBTC or the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust should be considered by persons financially able to maintain their investment and who can bear the risk of total loss associated with an investment in GBTC or the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust. Extreme volatility of trading prices that many digital assets, including Bitcoin, have experienced in recent periods and may continue to experience, could have a material adverse effect on the value of GBTC and the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust and the shares of each trust could lose all or substantially all of their value. Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry. The value of GBTC and the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust depends on the acceptance of the digital assets, the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies and the fundamental investment characteristics of the digital asset. Digital asset networks are developed by a diverse set of contributors and the perception that certain high-profile contributors will no longer contribute to the network could have an adverse effect on the market price of the related digital asset. Digital assets may have concentrated ownership and large sales or distributions by holders of such digital assets could have an adverse effect on the market price of such digital assets. The value of GBTC and the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust relate directly to the value of the underlying digital asset, the value of which may be highly volatile and subject to fluctuations due to a number of factors.</font></p>
