Organization and Description of Business and Recent Developments	Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business and Recent Developments BTCS Inc. (formerly Bitcoin Shop, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“BTCS” or the “Company”) was incorporated in 2008 and is a Nasdaq listed company operating in the blockchain technology sector since 2014 with a primary focus on blockchain infrastructure. Our core focus is on driving scalable growth through a diverse range of business streams leveraging and built on top of our core and proven blockchain infrastructure operations. The Company secures and operates validator nodes (as a “Validator”) on various proof-of-stake (“PoS”) and delegated proof-of-stake (“dPoS”) based blockchain networks earning native token rewards by staking our proof-of-stake crypto assets (also referred to “cryptocurrencies”, “crypto”, “crypto assets”, “digital assets”, or “tokens”), with an emphasis on Ethereum. The Company’s non-custodial Staking-as-a-Service (“StaaS”) business allows crypto asset holders to earn staking rewards by participating in network consensus mechanisms through staking (or “delegating”) their crypto assets to BTCS-operated validator nodes (or “nodes”). As a non-custodial Validator and StaaS provider, BTCS may charge a validator node fee, typically determined as a percent of the crypto asset rewards earned on crypto assets delegated to its node, creating the opportunity for potential scalable revenue and business growth with limited additional costs. The Company believes that StaaS provides a more accessible and cost-effective way for crypto asset holders to participate in blockchain network consensus, thereby promoting the growth and adoption of blockchain technology. The Company’s internally-developed “StakeSeeker” platform is a personal finance software and education center with a comprehensive crypto dashboard for crypto asset holders to connect, monitor, track, and analyze their crypto portfolios across exchanges and wallets in a single analytics platform. The StakeSeeker dashboard reads user data from digital wallets and utilizes application programming interfaces (APIs) to read data from crypto exchanges and does not allow for the trading or custody of crypto assets. StakeSeeker’s Stake Hub functions as an educational center, offering users guidance on the delegation of their crypto assets to our non-custodial validator nodes, along with the ability to monitor such delegation activities through data analysis. StakeSeeker does not provide or facilitate direct, asset delegation or transaction execution on our platform. Stake Hub’s primary purpose is to offer instructional support and tracking capabilities. There is no active process for asset delegation through the Stake Hub dashboard; it is primarily a monitoring tool. The StakeSeeker platform is currently free-to-use for registered users so is not currently generating revenue. The Company is not a broker-dealer or an investment advisor and does not provide any such related services. StakeSeeker provides a valuable analytical platform to crypto enthusiasts and strategically seeks to entice users with its cutting-edge features. The underlying strategic objective of the platform is to drive the expansion of Delegators to our validator nodes. The Company anticipates taking the StaaS Platform out of beta prior to the end of 2024. The current functionality allows for crypto asset holders to connect, monitor, track, and analyze their crypto portfolios across exchanges and wallets in a single analytics platform. In the future we may add support for additional blockchains and provide other analytic tools. We are also exploring the feasibility of adding Ethereum non-custodial staking to StakeSeeker in 2024. We anticipate the costs associated with doing so would be in line with our historical research and development costs. The Company has introduced “Builder+”, a newly developed Ethereum block builder (“Builder”) that utilizes advanced algorithms to maximize validator earnings by constructing optimized blocks for on-chain validation. Builders actively monitor the Ethereum transaction queue, known as the “mempool”, for pending transactions and strategically reorder them to create ‘optimized blocks’ containing transactions with the highest fees. Builders pay a fee to increase the chances of their blocks being selected by a validator and, in return, earn the associated crypto transaction fees. The Company’s business is subject to various risks and uncertainties, including risks associated with the evolving regulatory landscape for crypto assets, risks associated with the volatility of crypto asset prices, and risks associated with the development and adoption of blockchain technology. The Company’s future success is dependent on various factors, including the growth of the crypto asset market, the adoption of blockchain technology, and the Company’s ability to effectively operate and grow its blockchain infrastructure operations and StaaS business.
