  (1) As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s ETH holdings included:

 

  (a) Approximately 10,304 ETH staked to validator nodes with an approximate fair market value of $30,654,000, presented in Digital assets – staked; and
  (b) Approximately 59,737 Aave aEthWETH tokens representing wrapped ETH deployed in DeFi protocols and serving as collateral for outstanding DeFi borrowings, with a fair market value of approximately $177,718,000. The underlying ETH remains recognized within Digital assets - DeFi at fair value on the balance sheet. Although the associated aEthWETH tokens reside in the Company’s wallets, they are subject to protocol-enforced restrictions while the related borrowing is outstanding.

 

As described in Note 3, the Company classifies its digital assets by operational use into three categories:

 

Category  December 31, 2025   December 31, 2024 
Digital assets – treasury   2,388,607    646,539 
Digital assets – DeFi   177,718,244    - 
Digital assets – staked   30,657,401    35,410,144 
Total digital assets   210,764,252    36,056,683 

 

Category Descriptions

 

  ● Digital assets – treasury represent unencumbered digital assets maintained for liquidity and general corporate purposes.
  ● Digital assets – DeFi represent digital assets deployed in DeFi protocols, primarily Aave, for lending and liquidity provision. When ETH is deposited into Aave, the protocol issues an equivalent amount of Wrapped Aave ETH (“WAETH”) to the Company’s wallet. Management concluded under ASC 610-20 that these transactions do not constitute exchanges and that the underlying ETH remains recognized at fair value.
  ● Digital assets – staked represent digital assets actively deployed in validator operations to earn staking rewards. These assets are subject to protocol lock-ups and governance risks.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

All categories of digital assets are valued using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and are therefore classified as Level 1 within the fair-value hierarchy (see Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities). Encumbrances arising from staking or DeFi deployments do not affect fair-value classification because such restrictions are entity-specific and do not influence observable market pricing.

 

Unrealized gains and losses on digital assets represent the period-over-period change in the fair value of digital assets held by the Company and are recognized in earnings in the period in which the change occurs.
