Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Asset Purchase Agreement and Pre-Funded
Warrant
On
August 17, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), Cypherpunk Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) entered
into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with Moria Mining, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Seller”),
Winklevoss Treasury Investments, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Seller (“WTI” and together
with Seller, the “Seller Parties”), and Cypherpunk Mining LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company (the “Buyer” and together with the Company, the “Buyer Parties”).
Pursuant
to the APA, the Buyer agreed (i) to purchase and acquire from the Seller certain assets and rights (collectively, the “Purchased
Assets”), consisting solely of (a) the Mining Equipment (as defined in the APA), (b) the Hosting Agreements (as defined in
the APA) and (c) the other assets, properties and rights described in Section 1.01 of the APA, at an aggregate purchase price of $33,333,333,
payable in the form of a pre-funded warrant to purchase 43,290,042 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company (the “Pre-Funded Warrant”) to be issued by the Company to WTI
at the Closing (as defined in the APA) and (ii) to assume and pay, perform, fulfill and discharge all Liabilities (as defined in the APA)
of Seller arising out of or relating to the Purchased Assets, on or after the Closing, other than the Excluded Liabilities (as defined
in the APA) (the “Sale Transaction”).
The exercise price of the
Pre-Funded Warrant is equal to $0.001 per Warrant Share. The exercise price per share of the Pre-Funded Warrant and the number and kind
of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant are subject to adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends,
stock splits, stock combinations, or similar events affecting the Common Stock. Subject to certain limitations on the right to exercise
the Pre-Funded Warrant that are set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant and described in summary form below, the Pre-Funded Warrant is exercisable
at any time after the date of issuance, either in cash or by means of a cashless exercise and will not expire until the date the Pre-Funded
Warrant is fully exercised.
The Pre-Funded Warrant may not be exercised if the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the holder thereof (together with its affiliates) immediately following such exercise
would exceed 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Warrant
Shares upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant; provided, however, that a holder may increase or decrease the beneficial ownership
limitation by giving notice to the Company (with 61 days’ notice required for increases), but not to any percentage in excess of
19.99%. The Company will submit to its stockholders at its next annual meeting a proposal to approve, in accordance with applicable Nasdaq
rules, the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant in excess of 5,377,442, which is approximately equal
to 4.99% of the shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the signing of the APA, and the removal of the other
limitations on exercise set forth in the Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Stockholder Proposal”). The Company is obligated to use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain stockholder approval of the Stockholder Proposal at the next annual meeting of the Company's
stockholders (the “Stockholder Meeting Deadline”). If, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable best efforts, the
Company is unable to obtain stockholder approval on or prior to the Stockholder Meeting Deadline, the Company is required to use commercially
reasonable efforts to promptly obtain approval of the Stockholder Proposal, including by seeking such approval at the next-occurring annual
meeting of the Company’s stockholders until the Stockholder Proposal is approved. In addition, WTI is required to participate and
vote all voting securities of the Company held by it, or over which it exercises voting power (other than any Warrant Shares which are
not entitled to vote on the Stockholder Proposal pursuant to Section 2(f) of the Pre-Funded Warrant and applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules),
to approve the Stockholder Proposal.
The
APA contains representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions of each of the Seller Parties and the Buyer Parties
that are customary for transactions similar to the Sale Transaction.
The APA contains representations and warranties
that the parties thereto made to, and are solely for the benefit of, each other. Investors and security holders should not rely on such
representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts since they were made only as of the date of the APA.
Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of such representations and warranties might change after the date of the APA, which
subsequent information might or might not be fully reflected in public disclosures.
Seller is an affiliate of WTI. WTI beneficially
owns 19.9% of Company’s stock. As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission
on October 9, 2025, WTI previously entered into an agreement with the Company giving WTI the right to designate two directors to the Board
of Directors of the Company (the “Board”). WTI has exercised those rights to appoint Mr. William McEvoy and Mr. Khing Oei
to the Board. In accordance with Company's Related Person Transaction Policy, the transaction was approved by Nominating and Corporate
Governance Committee.
The
foregoing description of the APA and the Pre-Funded Warrant does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the full text of the APA and the Pre-Funded Warrant, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 1.1 and Exhibit 4.1, respectively, to
this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
First Amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement
As previously disclosed, on October 6, 2025, the
Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company
agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of all Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement).
On August 17, 2026, the Company and the holders
of a majority of the Registrable Securities then subject to the Registration Rights Agreement, entered into a first amendment to the Registration
Rights Agreement (the “First RRA Amendment”). Pursuant to the First RRA Amendment, in connection with the issuance of the
Pre-Funded Warrant, the parties agreed to, among other things, amend the definition of “Registrable Securities” to include
all shares of Common Stock and any Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of any other securities (whether equity,
debt or otherwise) of the Company currently owned or hereafter acquired by WTI on the terms set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement
as amended by the First RRA Amendment.
The
foregoing description of the First RRA Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the complete text of the First RRA Amendment, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated
herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information contained in Item 1.01 of this
Current Report on Form 8-K relating to the description of the Pre-Funded Warrant and Warrant Shares is hereby incorporated by reference
into this Item 3.02. The Pre-Funded Warrant was, or will be, as the case may be, offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of were, or will be, as the case may be, of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), under
Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D of the Securities Act.
Neither this Current Report on Form 8-K nor any exhibit attached hereto
is an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company.

(d) all
of Seller’s rights under warranties, indemnities and similar rights against third parties (including equipment manufacturers) with

Section 1.02 Excluded
Assets. The Purchased Assets shall not include, and Seller shall retain, any and all assets, properties, rights, contracts and personnel
arrangements of Seller other than the Purchased Assets (collectively, the “Excluded Assets”).
2
Section 1.03 Consideration.
At the Closing, Parent shall issue to WTI a pre-funded warrant, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Pre-Funded
Warrant”), to purchase shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Parent, which
Pre-Funded Warrant, together with Buyer’s assumption of the Assumed Liabilities pursuant to Section 1.04 below, shall
constitute the sole and entire consideration to be provided by Parent and Buyer to Seller and WTI for and in connection with the sale
of the Purchased Assets by Seller to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. The Parties hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that Parent’s
agreement to issue the Pre-Funded Warrant to WTI pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement shall constitute part
of the consideration for Seller’s agreement to sell and transfer the Purchased Assets to the Buyer pursuant to, and in accordance
with, the terms of this Agreement. The total number of shares of Common Stock underlying the Pre-Funded Warrant (the “Pre-Funded
Warrant Shares”) at the time of the Closing shall be equal to (i) the Aggregate Purchase Price (as defined below) divided
by (ii) the Per Share Purchase Price (as defined below). For purposes of this Agreement: (1) the “Aggregate Purchase
Price” means $33,333,333, which amount consists of the aggregate purchase price of the Purchased Assets as mutually agreed
upon by the Parties; and (2) the “Per Share Purchase Price” means $0.77, which is equal to the greater of (x) the
average Nasdaq official closing price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the signing of this
Agreement and (y) the price per share of the Common Stock that reflects an mNAV of 1 as calculated on the dashboard at cypherpunk.com
after the close of business on the day of the signing of this Agreement. The Pre-Funded Warrant includes provisions that limit the right
of the holder of the Pre-Funded Warrant to exercise the Pre-Funded Warrant and to receive Pre-Funded Warrant Shares upon or in connection
with such exercise, and the obligation of Parent to give effect to the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant by the holder thereof and to
issue Pre-Funded Warrant Shares upon or in connection with such exercise, if and to the extent that any issuance of Pre-Funded Warrant
Shares pursuant to, or in connection with, the exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant would violate or result in a violation of Nasdaq Listing
Rule 5635(a), Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), and/or Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), as applicable.
Section 1.04 Assumed
Liabilities; No Historical Liabilities Assumed. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Buyer shall assume and agree
to pay, perform, fulfill and discharge when due any and all of those Liabilities (as defined in Section 1.05 below) of Seller
under the Purchased Contracts (other than any Excluded Liabilities thereunder) that first accrue and arise, and relate solely to any
period of time, after the Closing, including, without limitation, all Liabilities for transfer taxes for which the Buyer is liable pursuant
to Section 5.05 (all Liabilities that Buyer is agreeing to assume pursuant to this Section 1.04 being referred
to, collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”). For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Agreement, Buyer shall not assume, and shall have no responsibility for, any Liability arising out of, relating to, or accrued
in connection with the Purchased Contracts or any of the other Purchased Assets to the extent that any such Liability first accrues or
arises, or relates to any period of time, prior to the Closing or arises out of or relates to Seller’s ownership, use or operation
of any of the Purchased Assets at any time prior to the Closing, all of which shall constitute Excluded Liabilities.
Section 1.05 Excluded
Liabilities. Buyer shall not assume and shall not be responsible to pay, perform, fulfill or discharge any Liabilities of Seller
that are not Assumed Liabilities, including, but not limited to, the following Liabilities of Seller (collectively, the “Excluded
Liabilities”):
(a) any
Liabilities under any contract or agreement of Seller other than the Purchased Contracts;
(b) any
Liabilities under the Purchased Contracts if and to the extent that such Liabilities first arise or accrue prior to the Closing or pertain
or otherwise relate to any period of time prior to the Closing;
(c) any
Liabilities relating to or arising out of the Excluded Assets;
3
(d) any
Liabilities for any income, capital gains, franchise or any other Taxes (as defined in Section 3.08 hereof) of Seller or
imposed on Seller under applicable Law (as defined in Section 3.02 hereof) other than Taxes for which Buyer is liable pursuant
to Section 5.05; and
(e) any
Liabilities of Seller under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents (as defined in Section 2.02(a)(iii) hereof)
or arising or incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation, investigation and performance by Seller of this Agreement, the
other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including fees and expenses of counsel, accountants,
consultants, advisers and others.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Liabilities”
means liabilities, obligations or commitments of any nature whatsoever, whether asserted or unasserted, known or unknown, absolute or
contingent, accrued or unaccrued, matured or unmatured or otherwise.
Section 1.06 Third-Party
Consents. The Parties acknowledge that the assignment of each Hosting Agreement to Buyer requires the prior written consent of the
counterparty thereto, and Seller shall obtain and deliver at the Closing the Novation Agreements (as defined below) in accordance with
the provisions of Section 2.02(a), each duly executed by Seller and the counterparty to the Hosting Agreement to which the
applicable Novation Agreement pertains. To the extent that Seller’s rights under any other Purchased Asset may not be assigned
to Buyer without the consent of another Person (a “Required Consent”) which has not been obtained as of the Closing,
this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same if an attempted assignment would constitute a breach thereof or be
unlawful; provided, however, that following the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts, and
shall cooperate with each other to obtain any such Required Consent(s) as promptly as possible following; provided, however,
that neither Seller nor Buyer shall be required to pay any consideration therefor. If any such Required Consent cannot be obtained following
the Closing in accordance with this Section 1.06, Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enter into
such arrangements to provide the parties the economic, and to the extent permitted under applicable Law, operational equivalent of the
transfer of such Purchased Asset to Buyer as of the Closing and the performance by Buyer of its obligations with respect thereto. Seller,
to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, shall act after the Closing as Buyer’s agent in order to obtain
for it the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Law and the Purchased Asset, with Buyer in any
other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer.
Section 1.07 Purchase
Price Allocation. Buyer and Seller agree that the Aggregate Purchase Price (together with any other items properly treated as consideration
for U.S. federal income tax purposes) shall be allocated among the Purchased Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date,
Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a schedule setting forth the proposed allocation of the Aggregate Purchase Price (including
any Assumed Liabilities treated as consideration for the Purchased Assets for Tax purposes) (the “Allocation Schedule”).
The Allocation Schedule shall be deemed final unless Seller notifies Buyer in writing that Seller objects to one or more items reflected
in the Allocation Schedule within thirty (30) days after the delivery of the Allocation Schedule to Seller (a “Dispute Notice”).
In the event of any such objection, Seller and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith to promptly resolve such dispute; provided, however,
that if Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to the Allocation Schedule within thirty (30) days after the
delivery of a Dispute Notice to Buyer, such dispute shall be resolved by a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public
accountants mutually appointed by Buyer and Seller. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne by Buyer, on the one
hand, and/or Seller, on the other hand, based upon the percentage which the portion of the disputed amount not awarded to each party

Section 3.10 Investment
Representations of WTI.
(a) Own
Account. WTI is acquiring the Pre-Funded Warrant as principal for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling
the Pre-Funded Warrant or the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), has no present intention of distributing the Pre-Funded Warrant or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares in violation of the Securities
Act, and has no direct or indirect arrangement or understanding with any other Person to distribute the Pre-Funded Warrant or Pre-Funded
Warrant Shares.
(b) Accredited
Investor; Sophistication. WTI is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation
D promulgated under the Securities Act, and the offer and sale of the Pre-Funded Warrant to WTI is intended to qualify for exemption
from registration under Rule 506(b) of Regulation D. WTI has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters,
either alone or together with its representatives, as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Pre-Funded
Warrant, has had the opportunity to seek such accounting, legal, business and tax advice as it has considered necessary to make an informed
decision, and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Pre-Funded Warrant, including a complete loss of such investment.
9
(c) Access
to Information. WTI acknowledges that it has reviewed this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (including the exhibits
and schedules hereto and thereto) and Parent’s SEC Reports (as defined in Section 4.04 hereof), and has had the opportunity
to ask questions of, and receive answers from, Parent’s representatives concerning the terms of the issuance of the Pre-Funded
Warrant and to obtain such additional information as WTI has deemed necessary to make an informed investment decision.
(d) Non-Reliance.
WTI acknowledges that it is not relying upon, and has not relied upon, any statement, representation or warranty made by any Person,
other than the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Buyer Parties expressly set forth in this Agreement and statements
made by Parent in the SEC Reports, in making its decision to accept the Pre-Funded Warrant as part of the consideration for Seller’s
agreement to sell the Purchased Assets to Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.
(e) Taxes.
WTI acknowledges that Buyer Parties make no representation or warranty with respect to the tax treatment of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, and either or both of WTI and Seller shall be solely responsible for any tax liability arising from WTI’s receipt
of the Pre-Funded Warrant and/or from Seller’s sale of the Purchased Assets to Buyer pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms
of this Agreement.
(f) Securities
Not Registered; Legends. WTI acknowledges and agrees that the Pre-Funded Warrant and the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares have not
been registered under the Securities Act, by reason of their issuance by Parent in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, and that the Pre-Funded Warrant and Pre-Funded Warrant Shares must continue to be held and may not be offered,
resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by WTI unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Securities
Act or is exempt from such registration, and in each case in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any state of the United
States. WTI understands that the exemptions from registration afforded by Rule 144 (the provisions of which are known to it) promulgated
under the Securities Act depend on the satisfaction of various conditions, including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale,
the holding period, and requirements relating to Parent which are outside of WTI’s control and which Parent may not be able to
satisfy, and that, if applicable, Rule 144 may afford the basis for sales only in limited amounts. WTI acknowledges and agrees
that it has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition of any of the Pre-Funded
Warrant or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares. WTI acknowledges that no federal or state agency has passed upon or endorsed the merits of the
issuance of the Pre-Funded Warrant or made any findings or determination as to the fairness of this investment.
10
WTI understands that any
certificates or book entry notations evidencing the Pre-Funded Warrant or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares may bear one or more legends in substantially
the following form and substance:
“THIS SECURITY
HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION
FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE ”SECURITIES ACT“), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE
OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION
FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE
SECURITIES LAWS. THIS SECURITY MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT WITH A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER OR OTHER
LOAN WITH A FINANCIAL INSTITUTION THAT IS AN ”ACCREDITED INVESTOR“ AS DEFINED IN RULE 501(a) UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT
OR OTHER LOAN SECURED BY SUCH SECURITIES.”
In addition, the Pre-Funded
Warrant or Pre-Funded Warrant Shares may contain a legend regarding the affiliate status of WTI, if applicable.
(g) Disqualification
Event. To the extent WTI is one of the covered persons identified in Rule 506(d)(1), WTI represents that no Disqualification
Event is applicable to WTI or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties (as defined below), except, if applicable, for a Disqualification
Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. WTI hereby agrees that it shall notify Buyer
promptly in writing in the event a Disqualification Event becomes applicable to WTI or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties,
except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable.
For purposes of this Section 3.10(g), “Rule 506(d) Related Party” means a person or entity that
is a beneficial owner of WTI’s securities for purposes of Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act.
Section 3.11 No
Other Representations and Warranties. Except for the representations and warranties contained in this ARTICLE III, neither
Seller, WTI nor any other Person has made or makes any other express or implied representation or warranty, either written or oral, on
behalf of any Seller Party, including any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding
the Purchased Assets furnished or made available to Buyer, Parent and their respective Representatives (including management presentations
or in any other form in expectation of the transactions contemplated hereby) or as to the future revenue, profitability or success of
the Purchased Assets, or any representation or warranty arising from statute or otherwise in law.

all non-public information, whether written or oral, concerning this Agreement or its terms, the transactions contemplated hereunder,
and any other non-public information disclosed by any other Party in the context of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated herein
(“Confidential Information”); provided, that (i) the Parties may disclose such Confidential Information
to their accountants, counsel or other advisors who need to know such Confidential Information and are otherwise subject to comparable
duties of confidentiality with respect to such Confidential Information, and (ii) the Parties may disclose this Agreement, the other
Transaction Documents, any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, and/or the respective material terms of any of the
foregoing, if and to the extent that the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the material terms thereof have been published,
publicly announced or publicly disclosed by or on behalf of Parent without breaching or violating the provisions of Section 5.02.
The prohibitions and restrictions set forth in this Section 5.01 shall not apply to any information that (a) is generally
available to and known by the public through no fault of the receiving Party or its Affiliates or Representatives; (b) is lawfully
acquired by the disclosing party from a source that is not and was not known by the disclosing party to be prohibited from disclosing
such Confidential Information by a legal, contractual, or fiduciary obligation; or (c) is required to be disclosed by Governmental
Order or Law; provided that, to the extent reasonably practicable without violating Governmental Order or Law, the receiving Party
shall promptly notify the disclosing Party and a reasonable opportunity is afforded to the disclosing Party (at their sole cost) to obtain
an appropriate protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. For avoidance
of doubt, the obligations of the Parties under this Section 5.01 are subject to the provisions of Section 5.02.

company), no party to this Agreement shall make any public announcements in respect of any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions

Section 5.04 Pro-Rata
Allocation of First Monthly Payment After Closing Under the Purchased Contracts. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, with respect to the monthly payment due and payable under each Purchased Contract for the month of August 2026 (each,
an “August Monthly Payment”), such monthly payment shall be prorated (based on the number of days in the month
of August 2026) between Seller and Buyer such that, on the date that an August Monthly Payment is due and payable under the
applicable Purchased Contract, (i) Seller shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the applicable counterparty under the Purchased Contracts
(each, a “Hosting Counterparty”) an amount in cash equal to (A) the amount of the August Monthly Payment
due and payable under such Purchased Contract multiplied by (B) the Seller Pro Rata Share (as defined below) and (ii) Buyer
shall pay, or cause to be paid, to the applicable Hosting Counterparties, an amount in cash equal to (x) the amount of the August Monthly
Payment due and payable under the applicable Purchased Contract multiplied by (y) the Buyer Pro Rata Share (as defined below). In
the event that Seller fails to pay the Seller Pro Rata Share of any August Monthly Payment in accordance with the foregoing provisions
of this Section 5.04 (such shortfall, the “Seller Shortfall Amount”), then Buyer shall have the right
to pay such required Seller Shortfall Amounts to the applicable Hosting Counterparty and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for any such Seller
Shortfall Amounts paid by the Buyer in cash, in each case upon written demand therefor by Buyer. Payment by Seller directly to Buyer
of any Seller Shortfall Amount pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall not relieve Seller from any Liability
to Buyer on account of any damages, losses or liabilities incurred or suffered by Buyer directly as a result of Seller’s breach
of its obligation to make any payment that Seller is required to pay to a Hosting Counterparty pursuant to this Section 5.04.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 5.04, in no event shall Seller be liable for any damages,
losses or liabilities attributable to Buyer’s failure to pay the Buyer Pro Rata Share of any August Monthly Payment when due.
For purposes of this Section 5.04, “Seller Pro Rata Share” means the percentage obtained by dividing (a) seventeen
(17) by (b) thirty-one. For purposes of this Section 5.04, “Buyer Pro Rata Share” means the percentage
obtained by dividing (a) fourteen (14) by (b) thirty-one.
Section 5.05 Transfer
Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of Seller and Buyer will pay fifty percent (50%) of any transfer
taxes and fees (“Transfer Taxes”), and any deficiency, interest or penalty asserted with respect thereto, arising
out of the sale of the Purchased Assets to the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement. The Party required to file any Tax return or other document
required to be filed with respect to any such Transfer Taxes pursuant to applicable Law will timely file or cause to be filed such Tax
return or such other document.
Section 5.06 Further
Assurances. Following the Closing, each of the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and
deliver such additional documents, instruments, conveyances, and assurances and take such further actions as may be reasonably required
to carry out the provisions hereof and give effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.
15
Section 5.07 Wrong
Pockets. If, following the Closing either Buyer or Seller becomes aware that any of the Purchased Assets have not been transferred
to Buyer or that any of the Excluded Assets have been transferred to Buyer, it shall promptly notify the other and the Parties shall,
as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, ensure that such property is transferred, at the expense of the party that is seeking the
assets to be transferred to it, to (a) Buyer, in the case of any Purchased Assets that were not transferred to Buyer at or in connection
with the Closing, or (b) Seller, in the case of any Excluded Assets which were transferred to Buyer at the Closing. In the event
that, at any time or from time to time after the Closing, Seller or any of its Affiliates receives any cryptocurrency that is mined at
any time after the Closing Date using the Mining Equipment, Seller shall promptly deliver or transfer, or cause to be promptly delivered
or transferred, such cryptocurrency to Buyer or to an account designated in writing by the Buyer. In the event that, at any time or from
time to time on or after the Closing Date, Buyer or any of its Affiliates receives any cryptocurrency that has been mined on or prior
to the Closing Date using the Mining Equipment, Buyer shall promptly deliver or transfer, or cause to be promptly delivered or transferred,
such cryptocurrency to Seller or to an account designated in writing by Seller.
Section 5.08 Access
to Information. Until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired for all Tax periods or portions
thereof ending on or before the Closing Date, Buyer and Seller shall, to the extent related to the Purchased Assets or Assumed Liabilities,
(a) each provide the other with such assistance as may reasonably be requested by any of them in connection with any Tax, accounting
or other financial reporting or services, including the preparation of any Tax return or any tax audit or proceeding, (b) each retain
and provide the other with any records or other information that may be relevant to any such Tax, accounting or other financial reporting
or services, including relating to any such Tax return or tax audit or proceeding, and (c) each provide the other with any final
determination of any such tax claim that affects any amount required to be shown on any Tax return of the other for any period. Buyer
agrees to provide Seller reasonable access during normal business hours to the books and records then in the possession of Buyer that
relate to the Purchased Assets with respect to periods prior to the Closing Date solely for the purpose of responding to any claims made
against Seller or WTI by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement with respect to Excluded Liabilities to the extent that such
documents are relevant to such claim and would not result in the loss of privilege or the sharing of competitively sensitive information
and for the purposes of preparation of any Tax returns by Seller after the Closing and to any audit by the Internal Revenue Service or
any other authority to the extent that such documents are relevant for such purposes, in all cases at Seller’s expense. Each of
Seller and WTI agrees to provide Buyer reasonable access during normal business hours to the documents and records not included in the
Purchased Assets then in the possession of Seller, WTI or any of their respective Affiliates that relate to periods prior to the Closing
Date solely for the purpose of responding to any claims made against Buyer or Parent by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement
with respect to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities to the extent that such
documents are relevant to such claim or for any other reasonable purpose relating to Buyer’s operation of the Purchased Assets
after the date hereof and would not result in the loss of privilege or the sharing of competitively sensitive information, in all cases
at Buyer’s expense. Any information provided to any Seller Party or Buyer Party pursuant to this Section 5.08 shall
in all cases be subject to Section 5.01 (except if and to the extent that the provisions of Section 5.01 conflict
with the provisions of this Section 5.08, in which case the provisions of this Section 5.08 shall control solely
to the extent necessary to implement this Section 5.08 and the parties intent and agreement under this Section 5.08).
For the avoidance of doubt, neither Seller nor WTI shall have access to, or a right to review of, any Tax return of Buyer (or its Affiliates)
that does not relate exclusively to the Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities. WTI shall cause Seller to comply with and perform all
of the provisions of this Section 5.08 that are applicable to Seller. Parent shall cause Buyer to comply with and perform
all of the provisions of this Section 5.08 that are applicable to Buyer.

Section 5.09 [Reserved.]
Section 5.10 Parent
Covenant Regarding Stockholder Proposals. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 5.10,
Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain approval of, and effect, the Stockholder Proposals (as defined below). Parent
shall seek stockholder approval of the Stockholder Proposals at the next annual meeting of Parent’s stockholders, with the recommendation
of Parent’s board of directors that the Stockholder Proposals be approved, and Parent shall solicit proxies from its stockholders
in connection therewith in the same manner as all other management proposals in the applicable proxy statement, and all management-appointed
proxyholders shall vote their proxies in favor of the Stockholder Proposals. If the Stockholder Proposals are not approved at such annual
meeting of Parent’s stockholders, Parent shall thereafter use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain approval of, and
effect, the Stockholder Proposals, including by seeking such approval at the next-occurring annual meeting of Parent’s stockholders
until the Stockholder Proposals are approved. For clarity, the Parties hereby expressly acknowledge and agree that Parent shall not have
any obligation to call and hold any special meeting of Parent’s stockholders for purposes of seeking or obtaining stockholder approval
of the Stockholder Proposals. For purposes of this Agreement, “Stockholder Proposals” means such proposal or proposals
as may be necessary to obtain any and all stockholder approvals required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b),
and/or Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), to the extent any of the foregoing is or becomes applicable, in order to permit the issuance
of any and all Pre-Funded Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrant without violation of any such Nasdaq Listing Rule that
is applicable.
Section 5.11 WTI
Covenant to Vote for Stockholder Proposals; Voting Proxy. At any annual meeting of Parent’s stockholders referred to in Section 5.10,
and at every adjournment or postponement thereof, WTI agrees that it shall participate and vote all voting securities of Parent held
by it, or over which it exercises voting power (other than any Pre-Funded Warrant Shares which are not entitled to vote on the Stockholder
Proposals pursuant to Section 2(f) of the Pre-Funded Warrant and applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules), to approve the Stockholder
Proposals. Any such vote shall be cast by WTI in accordance with such procedures as shall ensure that it is duly counted, including for
purposes of determining that a quorum is present and for purposes of recording the results of such vote or consent. WTI hereby constitutes
and appoints as its proxies, and hereby grants a power of attorney to the Chief Executive Officer of Parent, with full power of substitution,
with respect to the Stockholder Proposals, and hereby authorizes the Chief Executive Officer of Parent to represent and vote, if and
only if WTI (i) fails to vote, or (ii) attempts to vote (whether by proxy, in person, or otherwise) in a manner inconsistent
with the terms of this Section 5.11, all of WTI’s voting securities of Parent (other than any Pre-Funded Warrant Shares) in
favor of the Stockholder Proposals, or to take any action reasonably necessary to effect the intent of this Section 5.11.
The proxy and power of attorney granted pursuant to this Section 5.11 is given in consideration of the agreements and covenants
of the Parties in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, as such, is coupled with an interest and shall
be irrevocable until this Agreement terminates. WTI hereby revokes any and all previous proxies or powers of attorney with respect to
such voting securities and shall not purport to grant any other proxy or power of attorney with respect to any such voting securities,
deposit any such voting securities into a voting trust, or enter into any agreement, arrangement, or understanding with any Person to
vote, grant any proxy, or give voting instructions with respect to any such voting securities, in each case with respect to the Stockholder
Proposals if any such action by WTI would be inconsistent with its agreements or obligations under this Section 5.11.

ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION
Section 6.01 Survival.
The representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing for a period of twelve (12) months from the Closing
Date, except that (a) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.04, and 3.09
(the “Seller Fundamental Representations”) shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations,
(b) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.08 and Section 3.10 (together with the Seller
Fundamental Representations, the “Seller Specified Representations”) shall survive under the expiration of the applicable
statute of limitations, and (c) the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03,
4.05, and 4.06 (the “Buyer Fundamental Representations”) shall survive until the expiration of the applicable
statute of limitations. None of the covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing other than those
which by their terms contemplate performance after the Closing (including, without limitation, the covenants and agreements set forth
in this Article VI or in either of Articles V and VII hereof), and each such surviving covenant and agreement shall
survive the Closing for the period contemplated by their terms or until fully performed. For clarity, and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01, any right or remedy that any party may have as a result of
any breach of any covenant or agreement to be performed at or prior to the Closing shall survive the Closing until the expiration of
the statute of limitations applicable to such right or remedy.
Section 6.02 Indemnification
by the Seller Parties. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this ARTICLE VI, from and after Closing, the Seller
Parties, jointly and severally, shall indemnify and defend the Buyer Parties and their respective Affiliates and Representatives (collectively,
the “Buyer Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all losses, damages,
liabilities, deficiencies, Actions, judgments, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable
attorneys’ fees (collectively, “Losses”), incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Buyer Indemnitees to
the extent such Losses are based upon, arise out of, or are with respect to:
(a) any
inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of either of the Seller Parties contained in this Agreement or any
certificate delivered hereunder;
(b) any
breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by either of the Seller Parties pursuant to this
Agreement;
(c) any
Excluded Asset or any Excluded Liability; or
(d) any
Liability arising out of the ownership or operation of the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing Date.
18
Section 6.03 Indemnification
by Buyer Parties. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this ARTICLE VI, from and after Closing, the Buyer Parties,
jointly and severally, shall indemnify and defend the Seller Parties and their respective Affiliates and Representatives (collectively,
the “Seller Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred
or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Seller Indemnitees to the extent such Losses are based upon, arise out of, or are with respect
to:
(a) any
inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of either of the Buyer Parties contained in this Agreement or any
certificate delivered hereunder;
(b) any
breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by either of the Buyer Parties pursuant to this Agreement;
or
(c) any
Assumed Liability; or
(d) any
Liability arising out of the ownership or operation of the Purchased Assets after the Closing Date.
Section 6.04 Indemnification
Procedures.
(a) Whenever
any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder (an “Indemnification Claim”), the party entitled to indemnification
under this ARTICLE VI (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such Indemnification
Claim to the party from whom indemnification is being sought (the “Indemnifying Party”). Such notice by the Indemnified
Party shall describe the Indemnification Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and
shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party.
In connection with any Indemnification Claim hereunder resulting from or arising out of any Action by a Person who is not a party to
this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice
to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, with its counsel and at its
own cost and expense, subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party does
not assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Third-Party
Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Third-Party Claim on such terms as the Indemnified Party may
deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying
Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any Losses resulting therefrom. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate
with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including: (i) making available
(subject to the provisions of Section 5.01) records relating to such claim; and (ii) furnishing, without expense (other
than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be
reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such claim.
19
(b) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except as provided
in this Section 6.04(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without leading to Liability or the creation
of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and without requiring the Indemnified Party to admit or otherwise
accept that the Indemnified Party engaged in any wrongdoing and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified
Party from all Liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim (any such firm offer being hereinafter referred
to as a “Qualified Settlement Offer”) and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such Qualified Settlement
Offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent
to such Qualified Settlement Offer within thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest
or defend such Third-Party Claim (and shall have the right to settle such Third Party Claim), and, in any such event, the maximum liability
of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such Qualified Settlement Offer.
(c) Any
claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”)
shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. Such notice by the Indemnified
Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate
the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying
Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. If the Indemnifying Party
does not so respond within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which
case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject
to the provisions of this Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party does so respond within such thirty (30)-day period denying or rejecting
such claim (a “Dispute Notice”), then the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party will attempt to resolve such
dispute in good faith; provided, however, if they are unable to agree on the Direct Claim within thirty (30) days following the Indemnifying
Party’s delivery of a Dispute Notice, then the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the
Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 6.05 Limitations
on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the indemnification provided for in Section 6.02
and Section 6.03 shall be subject to the following limitations:
(a) The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02(a) or
Section 6.03(a), as applicable (other than in respect of a breach of any of the Seller Specified Representations or the
Buyer Fundamental Representations, as applicable, as to which the provisions of this Section 6.05(a) shall not be
applicable), until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02(a) or
Section 6.03(a), as applicable, exceeds $333,333 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Indemnifying
Party shall only be liable for the amount of such Losses in excess of the Deductible.
(b) The
aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party will be liable (i) pursuant to Section 6.02(a) or
Section 6.03(a), as applicable (other than in respect of a breach of any of the Seller Specified Representations or the Buyer
Fundamental Representations, as applicable, as to which the provisions of this clause (i) of this Section 6.05(b) shall
not be applicable), shall not exceed $3,333,333 and (ii) pursuant to Section 6.02(a) or Section 6.03(a),
as applicable, in respect of a breach of any of the Seller Specified Representations or the Buyer Fundamental Representations, as applicable,
and/or pursuant to Section 6.02(b) or Section 6.03(b), as applicable, shall not exceed an amount equal to
the Aggregate Purchase Price.
20
(c) In
no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special, or indirect
damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach
of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple. For clarity, nothing in the foregoing provisions
of this Section 6.05(c) shall limit the obligation of any Indemnifying Party to indemnify any Indemnified Party in connection
with any amounts that such Indemnified Party may have paid or is required or may be required to pay to a third party in connection with
any matter for which such Indemnified Party is entitled to seek indemnification from such Indemnifying Party pursuant to the other provisions
of this ARTICLE VI.
(d) Payments
by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this ARTICLE VI in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability
or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received
or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to
seeking indemnification under this Agreement.
Section 6.06 Recourse.
Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VI (including, without limitation, Section 6.05 and Section 6.07),
in the event that a Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02, such Buyer Indemnitee’s
sole recourse will be (i) first, to reduce the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares underlying the Pre-Funded Warrant in accordance
with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrant and this Agreement, in each case up to the number of Pre-Funded Warrant Shares then remaining
unexercised and available for reduction, and (ii) second, if after exercising such Buyer Indemnitee’s rights under
the foregoing clause (i), there remain indemnifiable Losses that have not been satisfied pursuant to the provisions of such clause (i) (such
remaining indemnifiable Losses, “Excess Losses”), such Buyer Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may
be available to such Buyer Indemnitee on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement in order to recover and satisfy such
Excess Losses (including, without limitation, asserting and commencing any action, suit or proceeding against the Seller Parties in their
personal capacities in accordance with Section 7.08 in order to obtain a recovery from them of cash or other assets or properties
sufficient to satisfy such remaining indemnifiable Losses). The price per share of any Pre-Funded Warrant Shares used to satisfy any
indemnifiable Losses pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) set forth above in this Section 6.06 shall be equal to the
average Nasdaq official closing price of the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date on which
the indemnifiable Losses have been agreed or finally adjudicated to be payable to the Buyer Indemnitee.
21
Section 6.07 Exclusive
Remedies. The parties acknowledge and agree that from and after Closing their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all
claims for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the
subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI. In furtherance
of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, from and after Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims
and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise
relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their
respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this ARTICLE VI.
Notwithstanding anything express or implied in the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.07 or in any other provision of
this ARTICLE VI, nothing in this Section 6.07 or elsewhere in this ARTICLE VI shall limit (i) any
Person’s right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled or (ii) any Person’s rights
or remedies to which such Person may be entitled in connection with, or as a result of, any Fraud (as defined below). For purposes of
this Agreement, “Fraud” means common law fraud under the Laws of the State of Delaware with respect to the making
of representations and warranties, or the performance of any covenants, contained in this Agreement.

State of Delaware for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in connection herewith or with any transaction contemplated hereby
or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert
in any suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that such suit,
action or proceeding is improper or is an inconvenient venue for such proceeding. Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service
of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified
mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement
and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall

to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by email or other means of electronic transmission shall
be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
Section 7.10 No
Reliance. Each Buyer Party acknowledges and agrees that except for the representations and warranties contained in ARTICLE III
or any Transaction Document, no Seller Party or any other Person or entity on behalf of a Seller Party has made or makes, and such Buyer

condition, results of operations, future operating or financial results, estimates, projections, forecasts, plans or prospects (including
the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, plans or prospects) with respect to any of the
foregoing or with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any other information provided or made available to such Buyer Party or
any of its Representatives by or on behalf of any Seller Party. Each Buyer Party acknowledges and agrees that no Seller Party or any
other Person or entity on behalf of a Seller Party has made or makes, and such Buyer Party has not relied upon, any representation or
warranty, whether express or implied, with respect to any projections, forecasts, estimates or budgets made available to such Buyer Party

financial condition (or any component thereof) of any Seller Party, any of their respective Affiliates, the Purchased Assets or any of
the Assumed Liabilities. Each Buyer Party disclaims any other representations or warranties, whether made by a Seller Party or any of
their respective Representatives.

PRE-FUNDED COMMON
STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
CYPHERPUNK TECHNOLOGIES
INC.
Warrant Shares: 43,290,042
Issue Date: August 17, 2026
THIS PRE-FUNDED
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT (the “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, Winklevoss Treasury Investments,
LLC or its assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions
hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after the date hereof (the “Initial Exercise Date”) until this Warrant is
exercised in full (the “Termination Date”), to subscribe for and purchase from Cypherpunk Technologies Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), up to 43,290,042 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common
Stock” and such Common Stock underlying this Warrant, subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”)
of the Company. The purchase price of one share of Common Stock underlying this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price set forth
in Section 2(b) below.
Section 1. Definitions.
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the
“Purchase Agreement”), dated August 17, 2026, by and among the Company, Cypherpunk Moria Mining Acquisition LLC
(“Buyer”), Moria Mining, LLC (“Seller”) and the Holder.
Section 2. Exercise.
(a) Exercise
of Warrant. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made,
in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to
the Company of a duly executed facsimile copy or PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading
Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein)
following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in
the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise
procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is applicable and specified in the attached Notice of Exercise. The Company
shall have no obligation to inquire with respect to or otherwise confirm the authenticity of the signature(s) contained on any Notice
of Exercise nor the authority of the person executing such Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required,
nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder
has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall
surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation within three (3) Trading Days of the date on which the final Notice of Exercise
is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares
available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal
to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant
Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Trading
Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the
provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available
for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.
For the avoidance
of doubt, there is no circumstance that would require the Company to net cash settle the Warrants.
(b) Exercise
Price. The consideration for this Warrant was satisfied by the delivery of the Purchased Assets by Seller to Buyer pursuant to the
Purchase Agreement on or prior to the Initial Exercise Date and, consequently, no additional consideration (other than the nominal exercise
price of $0.001 per Warrant Share) shall be required to be paid by the Holder to any Person to effect any exercise of this Warrant. The
Holder shall not be entitled to the return or refund of all, or any portion, of such consideration under any circumstance or for any
reason whatsoever. The unpaid exercise price per Warrant Share shall be $0.001, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise
Price”).
(c) Cashless
Exercise. This Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in
which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A),
where:
(A) =
as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the
applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered
pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both
executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day
prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of
Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at
the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding
the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock
on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”)
as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such
Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day
and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours
after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof
or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such
Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered
pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading
hours” on such Trading Day;
(B) =
the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder, in effect on the date of exercise;
and
(X) =
the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance
with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than
a cashless exercise.
“Bid
Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common
Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding
date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from
9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted
on a Trading Market and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) or
the OTCQX Best Market (“OTCQX”), as applicable, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date
(or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX, as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading
on a Trading Market or on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization
or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in
all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected by mutual agreement
of the Holder and the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
“Trading
Day” means any day on which the Trading Market is open for trading, including any day on which the Trading Market is open for
trading for a period of time less than the customary time. If the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, Trading
Day means a business day.
2
“Trading
Market” means any of the following markets or exchanges on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted for trading on the date
in question: the NYSE American, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq Global Market, the Nasdaq Global Select Market, or the New York
Stock Exchange (or any successors to any of the foregoing).
“VWAP”
means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed
or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date)
on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New
York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted on a Trading Market
and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on OTCQB or OTCQX, as applicable, the volume weighted average price of the Common
Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX, as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed
or quoted for trading on a Trading Market or on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open
Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of
the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent
appraiser selected by mutual agreement of the Holder and the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.
If
Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of
the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the registered characteristics of the Warrants being exercised and any holding period
of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position
contrary to this Section 2(c).
(d) Mechanics
of Exercise.
(i) Delivery
of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Company’s
transfer agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository
Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant
in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale
of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale
limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate,
registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which
the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is
the earliest of (i) two (2) Trading Days after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, provided that payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the instance of a cashless exercise) is received by the Company by such date, (ii) one
(1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company and (iii) the number of Trading Days comprising
the Standard Settlement Period after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise
Price (other than in the instance of a cashless exercise) is received by the Company by such date (such date, the “Warrant Share
Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become
the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery
of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received
within the earlier of (i) two (2) Trading Days and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement
Period following delivery of the Notice of Exercise. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares
subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than
in the instance of a cashless exercise) is received by the Company by such date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated
damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the
date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the
Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder
rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant
remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period,
expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on
the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Notice(s) of Exercise delivered
on or prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Initial Exercise Date, which may be delivered at any time after the time of
execution of the Purchase Agreement, subject to Section 2(e) and Section 2(f) hereof, the Company agrees
to deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Warrant Shares subject to such notice(s) by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
Initial Exercise Date and the Initial Exercise Date shall be the Warrant Share Delivery Date for purposes hereunder, provided that payment
of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by such Warrant Share Delivery Date.
3
(ii) Delivery
of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and
upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing
the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other
respects be identical with this Warrant.
(iii) Rescission
Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to
Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise by
delivering written notice to the Company.
(iv) Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if
the Company fails to cause the Company’s transfer agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions
of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date (other than any such failure
that is due to any action or inaction by the Holder with respect to such exercise, or due to circumstances beyond the Company’s
reasonable control), and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise)
or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of
the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall
(A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage
commissions, if any) for the Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant
Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which
the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion
of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be
deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied
with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases shares of Common Stock having a total purchase
price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of Warrants with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such
purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay
the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice promptly after the occurrence of a Buy-In, indicating the amounts
payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein
shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation,
a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver Warrant Shares
upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
(v) No
Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this
Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall,
at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the
Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
4
(vi) Charges,
Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other
incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, except that the Holder shall be responsible for any applicable
income or capital gains taxes, and the Company shall be responsible for other customary issuance expenses, and such Warrant Shares shall
be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that
in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise
shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form, attached hereto as Exhibit B, duly executed by the Holder and the Company may
require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company
shall pay all transfer agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company
(or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.
(vii) Closing
of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant,
pursuant to the terms hereof.
(e) Holder’s
Exercise Limitation – Beneficial Ownership Limitation. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder
shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, and any such attempted exercise shall be void and of no effect, pursuant
to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable
Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with (i) the Holder’s Affiliates, (ii) any other Persons acting as a group together
with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates, and (iii) any other Persons whose beneficial ownership of the shares of
Common Stock would or could be aggregated with the Holder’s for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in
excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of Warrant Shares issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of Warrant Shares
which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder
or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any
other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially
owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this
Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the
Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for
any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies,
the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable
(in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this
Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and the Company shall have no obligation to verify
or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes
of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of
outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the
Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by
the Company or the Company’s transfer agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written request
of a Holder, the Company shall within two (2) Trading Days confirm in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock
then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion
or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date
as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”
shall be 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Warrant Shares
issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation
provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 19.99% of the number
of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of Warrant Shares upon exercise of this Warrant
held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership
Limitation will not be effective until the 61st day after such notice is delivered to the Company. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Section 2(e), upon the Company’s receipt of the Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 2(f)),
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation set forth in this Section 2(e) shall automatically, and without any further notice, action
or consent by the Holder or the Company, be irrevocably waived on behalf of the Company, but, for the avoidance of doubt, not on behalf
of the Holder, and shall cease to apply to any exercise of this Warrant from and after the date of such Stockholder Approval. In the
event that the issuance of Common Stock to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant results in the Holder, together with its Affiliates
and any Attribution Parties, collectively being deemed to beneficially own, in the aggregate, more than the Beneficial Ownership Limitation,
the number of shares so issued by which the aggregate beneficial ownership (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder) of the Holder, its Affiliates and its Attribution Parties exceeds
such limitation (the “Excess Shares”) shall be deemed null and void and shall be cancelled ab initio, and the Holder,
its Affiliates and/or the Attribution Parties shall not have the power to vote or to transfer the Excess Shares. As soon as reasonably
practicable after the issuance of the Excess Shares has been deemed null and void, the Company shall return to the Holder the exercise
price paid by the Holder for the Excess Shares and the Holder shall return the Excess Shares to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph
shall not be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to
correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation
herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations
contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant. If the Warrant is unexercisable as a result of the Holder’s
Beneficial Ownership Limitation, no alternate consideration is owing to the Holder, provided that the Holder shall continue to have the
right, subject to the conditions set out herein, to exercise any unexercised portion of the Warrant which was otherwise exercisable and
all other rights, powers and remedies shall remain hereunder in full force and effect.
5
(f) Holder’s
Exercise Limitation - Cap on Warrant Shares Issuable Upon Exercise of this Warrant. Notwithstanding anything express or implied in
this Warrant to the contrary, the Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant and shall not issue (and shall not be obligated
to issue) any shares of Common Stock upon any such exercise of this Warrant, and Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion
of this Warrant, and any such attempted exercise and issuance shall be void and of no effect, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise,
if and to the extent that the issuance of the shares of Common Stock upon any such exercise of this Warrant would exceed the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock which the Company may issue upon exercise of the Warrant without violating Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a) and/or
Nasdaq Listing 5635(d) (the number of shares which may be issued without violating either or both of such Nasdaq Listing Rules,
including without limitation, a violation for not obtaining prior stockholder approval, the “Exercise Cap”), except
that such limitation shall not apply (i) with respect to the issuance of any shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant
that do not exceed the Exercise Cap, and (ii) in the event that, and upon such time as, the Company obtains the approval of its
stockholders required under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) and/or
Nasdaq Listing 5635(d) with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, including the resulting issuance
of this Warrant and the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant in excess of the Exercise Cap, which approval
shall be sought in accordance with Section 5.10 of the Purchase Agreement (such approval, “Stockholder Approval”).
The Exercise Cap applies in the aggregate to this Warrant and to any and all other Warrants issued upon any transfer, division or exchange
of this Warrant pursuant to Section 4, such that the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this
Warrant and all such other Warrants, collectively, shall not exceed the Exercise Cap absent Stockholder Approval, and the Company shall
track exercises against the Exercise Cap in the Warrant Register (as defined below). As of the Initial Exercise Date, the Exercise Cap
is equal to 5,377,442 shares of Common Stock. Any shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of this Warrant prior to the Company's
receipt of Stockholder Approval shall not be entitled to vote on any proposal submitted to the stockholders of the Company to obtain
Stockholder Approval. The Holder agrees not to vote, and shall cause any Affiliate or Attribution Party to which such shares are transferred
not to vote, any such shares on any such proposal.
6
Section 3. Certain
Adjustments.
(a) Stock
Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise
makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares
of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any Warrant Shares issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant),
(ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse
stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of
the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of
which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before
such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the
number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this
Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately
after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective
immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.
(b) Subsequent
Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time that this Warrant
is outstanding the Company grants, issues or sells any options, warrants, convertible securities or other rights to purchase stock, warrants,
securities or other property pro rata to all or substantially all of the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase
Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase
Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise
of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation)
immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record
is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such
Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase
Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or participating in any such Purchase Right in respect
of any portion of this Warrant that is otherwise subject to a limitation on Holder’s right to exercise, then the Holder shall not
be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result
of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time,
if ever, as its right thereto (i) would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and/or, if applicable,
(ii) also is no longer subject to any limitation or restriction pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b) as
a result of the termination or expiration of any other applicable limitation on Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant that initially
required such Purchase Right to be held in abeyance pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(b)).
(c) Pro
Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution
of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to all or substantially all of the holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return
of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of cash, stock or other securities, property or options by way
of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”),
at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution
to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable
upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial
Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the
date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided,
however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding
the Beneficial Ownership Limitation or that any portion of this Warrant is subject to any other limitation on Holder’s right to
exercise this Warrant, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial
ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be
held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto (i) would not result in the Holder
exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation and/or, if applicable, (ii) also is no longer subject to any limitation or restriction
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c) as a result of the termination or expiration of any other
applicable limitation on Holder’s right to exercise this Warrant that initially required such portion of such Distribution to be
held in abeyance pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c).
7
(d) Fundamental
Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related
transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person in which the Company is not the surviving
entity (other than a reincorporation in a different state), (ii) the Company or any Company subsidiary, directly or indirectly,
effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase
offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock
are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of
more than 50% of the outstanding shares representing the aggregate voting power of all classes of equity securities of the Company, (iv) the
Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization
of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for
other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates
a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization,
spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than
50% of the outstanding shares of the aggregate voting power of all classes of equity of the Company (each a "Fundamental Transaction"),
then following such Fundamental Transaction the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, the same amount
and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction
if it had been, immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, the holder of the number of Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise
in full of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise contained herein). The Company shall cause any successor entity
in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of
the obligations of the Company under this Warrant pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and, in the event that, as a result of such Fundamental Transaction and after giving effect
to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(d), the Holder shall have the right to receive, upon exercise of this Warrant, shares
of capital stock of the Successor Entity in lieu of shares of Common Stock of the Company, the Successor Entity shall deliver to the
Holder in exchange for this Warrant a replacement warrant of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument, which replacement
warrant shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Successor Entity and provide the Holder with the
same or substantially equivalent rights as those provided under this Warrant after giving effect to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 3(d), including that (1) the total number of warrant shares underlying such replacement warrant shall be equal to the
total number of shares of capital stock of the Successor Entity that became subject to this Warrant pursuant to, and in accordance with,
the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(d) as a result of such Fundamental Transaction, and (2) the aggregate exercise
price of such replacement warrant shall be the same as the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation
of the Fundamental Transaction in respect of the total number of Warrant Shares then subject to, and underlying, this Warrant.
(e) [Reserved].
(f) Calculations.
All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may
be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given
date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.
(g) Notice
to Holder.
(i) Adjustment
to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall
promptly deliver to the Holder by facsimile or email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting
adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
8
(ii) Notice
to Allow Exercise by Holder. If, while the Warrant is outstanding, (A) the Company declares a dividend (or any other distribution
in whatever form and other than, for the avoidance of doubt, a stock split or combination) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company
declares a special nonrecurring cash dividend on, or a redemption of, the shares of Common Stock, (C) the Company authorizes the
granting to all holders of the shares of Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of
any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company is required in connection with a Fundamental Transaction,
or (E) the Company authorizes the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company,
then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by facsimile or email to the Holder at its last facsimile number or email
address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 10 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective
date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution,
redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to
be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification,
consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected
that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock for securities, cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver
such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified
in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding
the Company or any of the Company subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current
Report on Form 8-K. The issuance of a press release or the filing of a Form 8-K or other suitable filing with the Commission
shall satisfy this notice requirement. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the
date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.
(h) Voluntary
Adjustment by the Company. Subject to the rules and regulations of the Trading Market, the Company may at any time during the
term of this Warrant reduce the then current Exercise Price to any amount and for any period of time deemed appropriate by the board
of directors of the Company.
Section 4. Transfer
of Warrant.
(a) Transferability.
Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof, and the
provisions of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder (including, without limitation,
any registration rights) are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company
or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by
the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such
surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee
or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to
the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company unless the Holder
has assigned this Warrant in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company within three (3) Trading
Days of the date on which the Holder delivers an assignment form to the Company assigning this Warrant in full. The Warrant, if properly
assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.
(b) New
Warrants. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, this Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon
presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in
which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a),
as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants
in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or
exchanges shall be dated the Initial Exercise Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of
Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.
9
(c) Warrant
Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant
Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder
of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other
purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.
(d) Transfer
Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this
Warrant shall not be either (i) registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable
state securities or blue sky laws or (ii) eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions or current public information
requirements pursuant to Rule 144, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, that the Holder or transferee
of this Warrant, as the case may be, (A) provide the Company with an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act, and (B) agree in writing
to be bound by all applicable transfer restrictions set forth in this Warrant.
(e) Representation
by the Holder. The Holder, by the acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant and, upon any exercise
hereof, will acquire the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, for its own account and not with a view to or for distributing or
reselling such Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law, except pursuant
to sales registered or exempted under the Securities Act.
Section 5. Miscellaneous.
(a) No
Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends
or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly
set forth in Section 3. Without limiting the rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise”
as permitted in Section 2(c) and to receive the cash payments contemplated pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and
Section 2(d)(iv), in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.
(b) Loss,
Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case
of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include
the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
(c) Saturdays,
Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or
granted herein shall not be a Trading Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Trading
Day.
(d) Authorized
Shares.
The
Company covenants that, at all times during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued shares
of Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights
under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who
are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company
will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without
violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed.
The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant
will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be
duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect
of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).
10
Except
and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending
its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale
of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant,
but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary
or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment (it being understood that this Warrant
shall not in any case prevent the Company from effecting any such amendment, reorganization, transfer, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issuance or sale). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant
Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions
or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations
under this Warrant.
Before
taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the
Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from
any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.
(e) Jurisdiction.
All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance
with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(f) Restrictions.
The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not
utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws, and in such case, by the
acceptance hereof, represents and warrants that the Holder will acquire such Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise for its own account
and not with a view to or for distributing or reselling Warrant Shares or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act or any
applicable state securities laws.
(g) Nonwaiver
and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as
a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of
this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which
results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs
and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the
Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.
(h) Notices.
Any notice, request or other document required or permitted to be given or delivered to the Holder by the Company shall be delivered
in accordance with the notice provisions of the Purchase Agreement.
(i) Limitation
of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase
price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the
Company.
(j) Remedies.
The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific
performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss
incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any
action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.
(k) Successors
and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder.
The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable
by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.
11
(l) Amendment.
This Warrant may be modified, amended, or the provisions hereof waived only with the written consent of both the Company and the Holder
of this Warrant. Any such modification, amendment or waiver shall be binding on all subsequent holders of this Warrant.
(m) Severability.
Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
(n) Headings.
The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this
Warrant.

AGREEMENT
This Amendment No. 1 to Registration
Rights Agreement (this “Amendment”) is made and entered into as of August 17, 2026, by and between Cypherpunk Technologies
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Winklevoss Treasury Investments, LLC (“WTI”).
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Registration Rights Agreement (as

WHEREAS, the Company and the
Investors signatory thereto are parties to that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of October 6, 2025 (the “Registration
Rights Agreement”);
WHEREAS, the Company, Moria
Mining, LLC, WTI, and Cypherpunk Mining LLC have entered into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 17, 2026 (the
“Asset Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to WTI a Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase
shares of Common Stock (the “APA Warrant”);
WHEREAS,
in connection with the issuance of the APA Warrant, the Company and WTI desire to amend the Registration Rights Agreement to provide WTI
with registration rights with respect to all shares of Common Stock and any Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or
conversion of any other securities (whether equity, debt or otherwise) of the Company now owned or hereafter acquired by WTI on the terms
set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement as amended by this Amendment (the “Amended Registration Rights Agreement”);
and
WHEREAS, as of the date hereof,
WTI is the Holder of a majority-in-interest of the outstanding Registrable Securities and constitutes the “Majority Holders”
for purposes of Section 6(f) of the Registration Rights Agreement, and is authorized to execute this Amendment on behalf of the Holders
in accordance with such Section.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in
consideration of the agreements and mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound
hereby, agree as follows:
AMENDMENTS

Winklevoss Treasury Investments, LLC (“WTI”), Cypherpunk Mining LLC, and the Company.
“APA Warrant”
means the Pre-Funded Warrant to purchase shares of Common Stock issued by the Company to WTI pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement.
2.
Amendment of the Definition of “Registrable Securities”. The definition of “Registrable Securities”
set forth in Section 1 of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
““Registrable
Securities” means, as of any date of determination, (a) all Shares issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, (b) all Pre-Funded
Warrant Shares, (c) all Common Warrant Shares, (d) all shares of Common Stock and any Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise
or conversion of any other securities (whether equity, debt or otherwise) of the Company now owned or hereafter acquired by the Lead Investor
and (e) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event
with respect to the foregoing; provided, however, that any such Registrable Securities shall cease to be Registrable Securities
(and the Company shall not be required to maintain the effectiveness of any, or file another, Registration Statement hereunder with respect
thereto) for so long as (a) a Registration Statement with respect to the sale of such Registrable Securities is declared effective by
the Commission under the Securities Act and such Registrable Securities have been disposed of by the Holder in accordance with such effective
Registration Statement, (b) such Registrable Securities have been previously sold in accordance with Rule 144, or (c) such securities
become eligible for resale without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions and without current public information pursuant to Rule 144 as
set forth in a written opinion letter to such effect, addressed, delivered and acceptable to the Transfer Agent and the affected Holders
and any restrictive legend is removed to permit the delivery of the securities via the facilities of DTC (assuming that such securities
and any securities issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of which, or as a dividend upon which, such securities were issued or
are issuable, were at no time held by any Affiliate of the Company).”
3.
Amendment of Section 3(c). Section 3(c) of the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
as follows:
“(c) If
during the Effectiveness Period, the number of Registrable Securities at any time exceeds 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock

the Company shall file as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any case no earlier than the applicable Filing Date, an additional Registration
Statement covering the resale by the Holders of not less than such excess number of such Registrable Securities.”

Law. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Amendment shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
5.
Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed and delivered in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
6.
Titles and Subtitles. The titles of the sections and subsections of this Amendment are for convenience of reference only
and are not to be considered in construing this Amendment.
2
7.
Severability. In the event one or more of the provisions of this Amendment should, for any reason, be held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions of this
Amendment, and this Amendment shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.
8.
Further Assurances. At any time or from time to time after the date hereof, the parties agree to cooperate with each other,
and at the request of any other party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action
as the other party may reasonably request in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
and to otherwise carry out the intent of the parties hereunder.
9.
No Other Change. Except to the extent hereby amended, the terms and provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect. From and after the date of this Amendment, the Registration Rights Agreement is hereby also amended and

Capital. The fleet is online today, with approximately 4.2 GSol/s of Equihash hashrate deployed across the United States, which currently
represents approximately 18% of the total Zcash network.
“Up
until now, investors have had limited options for Zcash mining exposure. With the acquisition of this mining fleet, Cypherpunk changes
that,” said Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss.
With the launch,
Cypherpunk now offers public market investors exposure to both Zcash mining and treasury upside and continues Cypherpunk's evolution
into a diversified privacy technology company.
"Following
the expansion of our ZEC treasury and investment in ZODL, Zcash mining is the next piece of the constellation of privacy technologies
we're assembling," said Will McEvoy, Chief Investment Officer of Cypherpunk. “The Zcash flow from Cypherpunk Mining
provides financial and operational flexibility to fund future growth, the acquisition of additional ZEC, and new privacy-preserving technology
investments.”
Through this transaction
with Winklevoss Capital, Cypherpunk Mining immediately becomes the Zcash network’s largest active fleet, currently deployed across
U.S.-based facilities with industry-leading uptimes and hosting rates, accessing an addressable market valued at over $250 million per
year at current ZEC prices.
Strengthening
Cypherpunk’s Treasury and the Zcash Network
Cypherpunk Mining
now stands alongside Cypherpunk's ZEC treasury and its privacy investment strategy anchored by ZODL, the most widely used Zcash wallet.
As approximately 43,800 ZEC are awarded to miners each month, mining meaningfully accelerates the company's path to its target of holding
5% of ZEC supply, at production costs that are significantly lower than spot price.
As the largest
corporate holder of ZEC, currently with 323,394.38 ZEC representing approximately 1.92% of the circulating supply, Cypherpunk's incentives
are aligned with the network's. The additional mining hashrate and decentralization strengthens Zcash network security, and a more secure
Zcash makes Cypherpunk's treasury more valuable. Cypherpunk intends to serve as a bridge between Zcash miners, developers, and the broader
ecosystem.
Kevin Zhang
Joins as Head of Mining
Kevin Zhang joins
Cypherpunk as Head of Mining, bringing more than a decade of experience at the front lines of Bitcoin and Zcash. Zhang began mining Bitcoin
in 2014 and Zcash in 2016, built several of the largest Bitcoin mining facilities in North America, and in 2019 led the first power plant
conversion to Bitcoin mining on the continent. At Foundry, he built the largest Bitcoin mining pool in the world and deployed one of
the largest crypto mining operations.
"Approximately
1,440 ZEC is awarded to miners each day, making Zcash mining highly profitable. Even if the Zcash network hashrate increases significantly,
Zcash mining still out-earns AI colocation and Bitcoin mining at today's ZEC prices," said Kevin Zhang, Head of Mining at Cypherpunk.
"The opportunity in Zcash mining shows a striking similarity to Bitcoin mining in 2016 and provides exciting growth potential for
Cypherpunk."
Description
of the Transaction

Cypherpunk Mining LLC (“Cypherpunk Mining”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Moria Mining LLC and Winklevoss
Treasury Investments, LLC pursuant to which Cypherpunk Mining acquired the latest generation Z15 Pro machines with an aggregate hashpower
of approximately 4.2 GSol/s along with their related hosting agreements. The aggregate purchase price of $33.33 million was paid for
by the issuance of a pre-funded warrant to Winklevoss Treasury Investments, LLC to purchase 43,290,042 shares of common stock of Cypherpunk
at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, reflecting a Cypherpunk common stock purchase price of $0.77 per share.
