Thumzup Media Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
June 30, 2025
Note 1 - Business Organization and Nature of Operations
Thumzup Media Corporation (“Thumzup” or the “Company”) was incorporated on October 27, 2020, under the laws of
the State of Nevada, and its headquarters is located in Los Angeles, California. The Company’s primary business is software as
a service provider dedicated to connecting businesses with consumers and allowing the business to incentivize consumers to post about
their experience on social media. Thumzup’s mission is to democratize social media marketing by connecting advertisers with non-professional
people, who can be paid for their posts about products and services they love through its technology which utilizes a proprietary mobile
app (“App”). The App generates scalable word-of-mouth product posts and recommendations for advertisers on social media and
is designed to connect advertisers with individuals who are willing to promote their products online.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of xBitcoin, LLC and Quantum Reach Corporation, our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions were eliminated during consolidation.
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, and as such, has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation - Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) with respect to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual financial statements have been condensed, consolidated or omitted from these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 11, 2025, as amended on Form 10-K/A on April 30, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). The December 31, 2024, balance sheet is derived from those financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires management to use its judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reported period. These assumptions and estimates could have a material effect on the financial statements. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. The Company’s management periodically reviews estimates on an ongoing basis based on information currently available, and changes in facts and circumstances may cause the Company to revise these estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used in the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
As
of June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of $
Digital Assets
The Company accounts for its digital assets, which are comprised solely of bitcoin, as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other. The Company has ownership of and control over its bitcoin and uses third-party custodial services to store its bitcoin. The Company’s digital assets are initially recorded at cost. Subsequently, they are measured at cost, net of any impairment losses incurred since acquisition.
The Company determines the fair value of its bitcoin on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted (unadjusted) prices on the Coinbase exchange, the active exchange that the Company has determined is its principal market for bitcoin (Level 1 inputs). The Company performs an analysis each quarter to identify whether events or changes in circumstances, principally decreases in the quoted (unadjusted) prices on the active exchange, indicate that it is more likely than not that any of the assets are impaired. In determining if an impairment has occurred, the Company considers the lowest price of one bitcoin quoted on the active exchange at any time since acquiring the specific bitcoin held by the Company. If the carrying value of a bitcoin exceeds that lowest price, an impairment loss has occurred with respect to that bitcoin in the amount equal to the difference between its carrying value and such lowest price.
Impairment losses are recognized in the period in which the impairment occurs and are reflected within “Digital asset impairment losses (gains on sale), net” in the Company’s Statements of Operations. The impaired digital assets are written down to their fair value at the time of impairment and this new cost basis will not be adjusted upward for any subsequent increase in fair value. Gains (if any) are not recorded until realized upon sale, at which point they are presented net of any impairment losses in the Company’s Statements of Operations. In determining the gain to be recognized upon sale, the Company calculates the difference between the sales price and carrying value of the specific bitcoins sold immediately prior to sale.
See Note 3, Digital Assets, to the Financial Statements for further information regarding the Company’s purchases of digital assets.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, which consists of computer equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Ordinary repair and maintenance costs are included in general and administrative expenses on our statement of operations. However, expenditures for additions or improvements that significantly extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized in the period incurred. At the time assets are sold or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts and the related gains or losses are reflected in the statements of operations in gains from sales of property and equipment, net.
The
estimated useful life for computer equipment is
Capitalized Software Development Costs
We
capitalize certain costs related to the development and enhancement of the Thumzup platform. In accordance with authoritative guidance,
including ASC 350-40, we began to capitalize these costs when the technological feasibility was established and preliminary development
efforts were successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it was probable that the project would
be completed and the software would be used as intended. Such costs are amortized when placed in service, on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful life of the related asset, generally estimated to be three years. Costs incurred prior to meeting these criteria
together with costs incurred for training and maintenance are expensed as incurred and recorded in product development expenses on our
statements of operations. Costs incurred for enhancements that were expected to result in additional features or functionality that would
generate additional revenue are capitalized and expensed over the estimated useful life of the enhancements, generally three years. The
Company does not capitalize any testing or maintenance costs. The accounting for these capitalized software costs requires us to make
significant judgments, assumptions and estimates related to the timing and amount of recognized capitalized software development costs.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company capitalized $
The
Company evaluates its capitalized software costs for impairment annually, at year-end. As of December 31, 2024, the Company determined
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when services are realized.
The Company’s revenues are accounted for under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue From Contracts With Customers” (“ASC 606”). The fees are generally fixed at the point of sale and all consideration from contracts is included in the transaction price. The Company’s contracts do not include multiple performance obligations or material variable consideration.
10 |
In accordance with ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following:
(i) | Identify the contract(s) with a customer; | |
(ii) | Identify the performance obligation in the contract; | |
(iii) | Determine the transaction price; | |
(iv) | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and | |
(v) | Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
The Company derives its revenue principally from service fees paid by the client for the use of our platform in connection with our advertising technology platform which incentivizes users to leave reviews of our clients. The Company’s sole performance obligation in the transaction is to connect clients with end-users to facilitate the completion of a successful review on the user’s social media accounts.
Judgment is required in evaluating the presentation of revenue on a gross versus net basis based on whether we control the service provided to the end-user and are the principal in the transaction (gross), or we arrange for other parties to provide the service to the end-user and are the agent in the transaction (net). The Company has concluded that it is the agent in its current transactions as it arranges for users to provide the service to the clients and the users post reviews on social media accounts controlled by the users. The assessment of whether the Company is considered the principal or the agent in a transaction could impact the accounting for these transactions and change the timing and amount of revenue recognized. The percentage fee the Company charges is not variable.
Cost of Goods Sold
The Company classifies its credit card transaction fees as cost of goods sold.
Client Deposits
Thumzup’s clients generally prepay to utilize the Company’s technology platform. All client deposits for services are recorded as a client deposit liability upon receipt. Upon a user leaving a qualified review for the client, as defined in Thumzup’s Mobile Terms and Conditions, the Company transfers the fee payable to the user to a user account balances liability account and realizes the fees payable to the Company as revenue. The Company holds all client deposits and user account balances in cash or cash-equivalents, including money market accounts.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes the asset and liability approach to measure deferred tax assets and liabilities based on temporary differences existing at each balance sheet date using currently enacted tax rates in accordance with ASC 740. ASC 740 considers the differences between financial statement treatment and tax treatment of certain transactions. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date of that rate.
The
Company has

Company recognizes any interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

11 |
The Company maintains its 2024 Equity Incentive Plan and 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Equity Plans”), under which, the Company’s employees, officers, directors, and other eligible participants may be and have been awarded various types of share-based compensation, including options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, restricted stock units, and other stock-based awards. Additionally, under the Equity Plans, awards may be and have been granted that are subject to the achievement of one or more performance measures established by the Company’s Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof.
For options and other stock-based awards, the share-based compensation expense is based on the fair value of the awards on the date of grant, as estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. For restricted stock units, the share-based compensation expense is based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of liability-classified awards (e.g., the other stock-based awards and cash-settled restricted stock units) is remeasured at each reporting date.
The Company recognizes share-based compensation expense for service-conditioned awards granted under the Equity Plans on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period (generally, the vesting period for service-conditioned awards under the Equity Plans).
See Note 7, Stock Options, to the Financial Statements for further information regarding the Equity Plans, related share-based compensation expense, and assumptions used in determining fair value.

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company computes earnings (loss) per share under ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share. Net loss per common share is computed by
dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share, if
presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common
stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods, as applicable.
The computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, excludes potentially dilutive securities when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, or if their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Crypto Assets
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (“ASU 2023-08”). ASU 2023-08 requires in-scope crypto assets (including the Company’s bitcoin holdings) to be measured at fair value in the statement of financial position, with gains and losses from changes in the fair value of such crypto assets recognized in net income each reporting period. ASU 2023-08 also requires certain interim and annual disclosures for crypto assets within the scope of the standard. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis.
The Company expects the adoption of ASU 2023-08 will have a material impact on its balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of cash flows and disclosures. The Company will initially record its bitcoin purchases at cost, upon adopting ASU 2023-08, any subsequent increases or decreases in fair value will be recognized as incurred in the Company’s Statements of Operations, and the fair value of the Company’s bitcoin will be reflected within the Company’s Balance Sheets each reporting period-end. Additionally, the Company will provide quantitative and qualitative disclosures to meet the new requirements under ASU 2023-08, including a roll-forward of its bitcoin holdings during the reporting period and period-end cost basis, fair value, number of units held, and restrictions.
The
U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IRA”) in August 2022. Among other things, unless an exemption by statute
or regulation applies, a provision of the IRA imposes a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) on a corporation with
respect to an initial tax year and subsequent tax years, if the average annual adjusted financial statement income for any consecutive
three-tax-year period preceding the initial tax year exceeds $
Income Taxes
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding income taxes, particularly related to rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. In particular, on an annual basis, companies will be required to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. Companies will also be required to disclose, on an annual basis, the amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes, and also disaggregated by individual jurisdictions above a quantitative threshold. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2025, on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted for all prior periods presented. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 for the annual period ending December 31, 2025, and is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
13 |
Segment Reporting
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 requires enhanced disclosures surrounding reportable segments, particularly (i) significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) and included in the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit and loss and (ii) other segment items that reconcile segment revenue and significant expenses to the reported measure(s) of a segment’s profit and loss, both on an annual and interim basis. Companies are also required to provide all annual disclosures currently required under Topic 280 in interim periods, in addition to disclosing the title and position of the CODM and how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit and loss in assessing segment performance and allocating resources.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires specified information about certain costs and expenses be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements, including the expense caption on the face of the income statement in which they are disclosed, in addition to a qualitative description of remaining amounts not separately disaggregated. Entities will also be required to disclose their definition of “selling expenses” and the total amount in each annual period. The standard is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning January 1, 2027, and for interim periods beginning January 1, 2028, with updates applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its disclosures.
There are other various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), including this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “estimate”, “target”, “project”, “intend”, “foresee” and similar expressions. These statements include, among others, statements regarding our expected business outlook, anticipated financial and operating results, our business strategy and means to implement the strategy, our objectives, the amount and timing of capital expenditures, the likelihood of our success in expanding our business, financing plans, budgets, working capital needs and sources of liquidity. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future.
Forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of performance. These statements are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions, which in turn are based on currently available information. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the expansion of product offerings geographically or through new marketing applications, the timing and cost of planned capital expenditures, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Forward-looking statements also involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. In addition, even if our actual results are consistent with the forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report, those results may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
● | our ability to raise capital when needed and on acceptable terms and conditions; |
● | our ability to manage credit and debt structures from debt holders; |
● | our ability to generate revenues and manage the growth of our business; |
● | competitive pressures; |
● | general economic conditions; |
● | our ability to attract and retain management, and to integrate and maintain technical information and management information systems; |
● | our ability to maintain compliance with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”); and |
● | compliance with laws and regulations, including those relating to corporate governance matters and tax matters, as well as any future changes to such laws and regulations. |
Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), we are under no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of any new information, future events or otherwise. Investors, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider the above-mentioned factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results or performance.
OVERVIEW
Thumzup Media Corporation (“Thumzup” or “Company”) was incorporated on October 27, 2020, under the laws of the State of Nevada, and its headquarters is located in Los Angeles. The Company’s primary business is software as a service provider dedicated to connecting businesses with consumers and allowing the business to incentivize consumers to post about their experience on social media. Thumzup mission is to democratize social media marketing by connecting advertisers with non-professional people, who can be paid for their posts about products and services they love through its technology which utilizes a proprietary mobile app (the “App”). The App generates scalable word-of-mouth product posts and recommendations for advertisers on social media and is designed to connect advertisers with individuals who are willing to promote their products online.
22 |
The Thumzup App enables users to select a brand they want to post about on social media. Once the Thumzup user selects the brand and takes a photo (using the App), the App will post the photo and a caption to the user’s social media account(s). As of the date of this filing, Instagram is the Company’s initial social media platform that is being used, due to its wide acceptance and its great functionality using photographs. The Company expects to add other social media platforms in the future. For the advertiser, the Thumzup system enables brands to get real people to promote products to their friends, rather than displaying banner ads that consumers now mostly ignore, or contracting with expensive professional influencers. The Company has recorded nominal revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2025, and continues with the development of enhancements to its App and marketing efforts.
The Company is an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, and as such, has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

Series A Preferred Stock

Pursuant to the Series A Securities Purchase Agreement, the company sold 16,446 Shares of its Series A Preferred Convertible Voting Stock (the “Series A Preferred”) at a per share price of $45.00 per preferred share and received gross proceeds of $740,000.
On September 21, 2022, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada the Certificate of Designation of Rights, Powers, Preferences, Privileges and Restrictions of Series A Preferred Convertible Voting Stock, which was amended and restated on September 26, 2022 (the “Series A Certificate of Designation”).
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, the Company designated 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Preferred. The Series A Preferred votes together with the common stock of the Company on an as-converted basis, provided that each holder of Series A Preferred shall be limited to voting the number of votes that is 9.99% of all shares entitled to vote, except as required by law.
Subject to the provisions of Section 4 of the Series A Certificate of Designation, each holder shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, at such holder’s option, to convert any or all of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred into the number of shares of common stock as set forth herein. Each share of Series A Preferred initially converts into 15 shares of common stock (the “Conversion Rate”) at a reference rate of $3.00 per share of common stock (the “Reference Rate”) subject to adjustments set forth in Sections 4(g) and (h) of the Series A Certificate of Designation.
The holders of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to receive, in cash or in-kind at Company’s election, in an amount equal to $3.50 per share. If paid in kind, the dividend shall be in shares of Series A Preferred (the “Series A Dividend Shares”) valued at the $45.00 per share of Series A Preferred (the “Purchase Price”) unless the closing price of the common stock on the trading day prior to the issuance of the dividend is below the Reference Rate, in which case the Series A Dividend Shares shall be valued at the Purchase Price adjusted pursuant to the formula set forth in Section 3 of the Series A Certificate of Designations.
The Series A Preferred was offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
Under the Series A Certificate of Designations, at no time may all or a portion of the Series A Preferred be converted if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock owned by the Holder at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock that would result in the holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules thereunder) more than 4.99% of all of the common stock outstanding at such time (the “4.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that, upon the holder providing the Company with sixty-one (61) days’ advance notice (the “4.99% Waiver Notice”) that the holder would like to waive Section 4(f) of the Series A Certificate of Designations with regard to any or all shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred, Section 4(f) will be of no force or effect with regard to all or a portion of the Series A Preferred referenced in the 4.99% Waiver Notice but shall in no event waive the 9.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation.

Series B Preferred Stock
On March 5, 2024, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation (the “Series B Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 40,000 shares of preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B Preferred”).
The Company recently raised $805,000 in a Series B Preferred offering during the period March - May 2024. Each share of Series B Preferred cost $50 and initially converts into 10 shares of common stock and pays a 10% dividend on a quarterly basis and has downside price protection. Once the company up-lists on a National Stock Exchange, the Series B Preferred converts at a 20% discount to the price of the offering in this S-1 and the downside price protections are eliminated. There is a call provision that goes into effect six (6) months from the listing on a National Exchange, that if the common stock trades at a 100% premium to the conversion price for 10 days or more, the Company can force the conversion of the Series B Preferred into common stock. The Company has agreed to pay the costs of Rule 144 legal opinions for the holders of the Series B Preferred.
Pursuant to the Series B Certificate of Designations, each holder of the Series B Preferred has the right, at any time and from time to time, at the shareholder’s option to convert any or all of such holder’s shares of Series B Preferred into the number of shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series B Preferred is initially convertible into 10 shares of common stock at a reference rate of $5.00 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustments to set forth in the Series B Certificate of Designations.
Upon the Company’s up-listing to Nasdaq, the Series B Preferred became convertible at $4.00 per share and the downside price protections were eliminated. On March 29, 2025, certain call protection provisions in the Series B Preferred went into effect, providing that if the common stock trades at a 100% premium to the conversion price of the Series B Preferred for 10 days or more, the Company can force the conversion of the Series B Preferred into shares of common stock. The Company has agreed to pay the costs of Rule 144 legal opinions for the holders of the Series B Preferred.
The holders of Series B Preferred are entitled to receive dividends, in cash or in-kind at the Company’s election, in an amount equal to $1.25 per share per quarter. If paid in kind, the number of shares of common stock issued for the dividend shall be equal to the quotient of the dividend payable divided by the volume weighted average price on the dividend date. The Series B Preferred was offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
On July 18, 2025, we filed the Withdrawal of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada and terminated the designation of our Series B Preferred. At the time of the filing of the Withdrawal of Designation, there were no shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The Withdrawal of Designation became effective upon filing and eliminated from the Articles of Incorporation all matters as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Rights, Powers, Preferences, Privileges and Restrictions of Series B Preferred Convertible Voting Stock.

The Series C Preferred Stock is functionally the same as our common stock except for the inclusion of either, at the election of the holder, a 4.99% or 9.99% beneficial ownership equity blocker and a liquidation preference in the event of a Liquidation Event (as defined in the Series C Certificate of Designation) so that before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any of shares of junior stock, the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall receive a number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock equal to the amount per share such holder would receive if such holder converted such Series C Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to the date of such payment.
28 |
General. The Series C Certificate of Designation for authorizes 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock has a stated value of $60.00. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of our common stock, subject to certain adjustments. The initial conversion price of the Series C Preferred Stock is $6.00 per share of common stock.
Exchange Listing. There is no trading market available for the Series C Preferred Stock. We do not intend to list or quote the Series C Preferred Stock on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system.
Ranking. The Series C Preferred Stock ranks junior to the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred, but ranks senior to our common stock and any preferred stock issued after the Series C Preferred Stock. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, the Series C Preferred Stock shall maintain its relative rights, powers, designations, privileges and preferences provided for in the Series C Certificate of Designation. In the event of a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock will share in the distribution of our net assets on an as-converted basis.
Voting. Except as otherwise required by the Nevada Revised Statutes, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall have no voting rights with respect to such shares.

The net proceeds to us from the Series C Offering were approximately $6.04 million after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses payable by us.

The Series C Preferred Stock contains a beneficial ownership limitation, pursuant to which a holder may not convert the Series C Preferred Stock into common stock to the extent that, after such conversion, the holder (together with its affiliates) would beneficially own more than either 4.99% or 9.99% of our outstanding common stock, as initially elected by the holder.

To the extent that funds generated from our operations, together with our existing capital resources, are insufficient to meet future requirements, we will be required to obtain additional funds through equity or debt financings. No assurance can be given that any additional financing will be made available to us or will be available on acceptable terms should such a need arise.

Inflation
The Company’s results of operations have not been affected by inflation and management cannot predict the impact, if any, inflation might have on its operations in the future.
Cybersecurity
Risk Management and Strategy
We recognize the critical importance of developing, implementing, and maintaining robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard our information systems and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our data.
Managing Material Risks & Integrated Overall Risk Management
We have strategically integrated cybersecurity risk management into our broader risk management framework to promote a company-wide culture of cybersecurity risk management. This integration ensures that cybersecurity considerations are an integral part of our decision-making processes at every level. Our management team continuously evaluates and addresses cybersecurity risks in alignment with our business objectives and operational needs.
Oversee Third-party Risk
Because we are aware of the risks associated with third-party service providers, we have implemented stringent processes to oversee and manage these risks. We conduct thorough security assessments of all third-party providers before engagement and maintain ongoing monitoring to ensure compliance with our cybersecurity standards. The monitoring includes annual assessments of the SOC reports of our providers and implementing complementary controls. This approach is designed to mitigate risks related to data breaches or other security incidents originating from third parties.
Risks from Cybersecurity Threats
We have not encountered cybersecurity challenges that have materially impaired our operations or financial standing.
Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties common to companies in the technology and social media industry, including but not limited to, development by competitors of new products and applications, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, and the ability to secure additional capital to fund operations. In addition, the consequences of the ongoing geopolitical conflicts, such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, including related sanctions and countermeasures, and the effects of rising global inflation, are difficult to predict, and could adversely impact geopolitical and macroeconomic conditions, the global economy, and contribute to increased market volatility, which may in turn adversely affect our business and operations. Additionally, recent changes to U.S. policy implemented by the U.S. Congress, the Trump administration or any new administration have impacted and may in the future impact, among other things, the U.S. and global economy, tariffs, international trade relations, unemployment, immigration, healthcare, taxation, the U.S. regulatory environment, inflation and other areas. Although we cannot predict the impact, if any, of these changes to our business, they could adversely affect our business. For a further discussion of factors that may affect future operating results see the sections entitled “Risk Factors.”
Other than as discussed above and elsewhere in this report, we are not aware of any trends, events or uncertainties that are likely to have a material effect on our financial condition.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a smaller reporting company.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)) (the “Exchange Act”). Based on the foregoing evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, based on the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (2013 Framework). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Inherent Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls
Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently a party to any lawsuit or proceeding which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on us or our business.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
The following description of risk factors includes any material changes to risk factors associated with our business, financial condition and results of operations previously disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report. Our business, financial condition and operating results can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, and stock price.
The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding other statements in this Quarterly Report. The following information should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part I, Item 1, “Financial Statements” and Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Quarterly Report.
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and prevent us from fulfilling our debt obligations.
In May 2025, we entered into the MLA with Coinbase and Coinbase, Inc. pursuant to which Coinbase may lend us certain digital assets or cash. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we have received $500,000 under the MLA and the principal amount outstanding as of the date of this Quarterly Report is $500,000. The borrowings under the Master Loan are collateralized by approximately $1.25 million of bitcoin as of the date of this Quarterly Report.
Our indebtedness could, among others:
● | increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; |
● | require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, research and development efforts and other general corporate purposes; |
● | limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; |
● | place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; |
● | result in greater interest rate risk and volatility; |
● | limit our ability to borrow additional funds; and |
● | make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to our debt, including our obligation to repay the MLA under certain circumstances, or refinance our indebtedness on favorable terms or at all. |
In addition, if the value of bitcoin declines precipitously, the value of our collateral under the MLA would also decline. In such case, we could be required to provide Coinbase with additional collateral. If we are unable to do so, we could default under the MLA, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations, liquidity, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our ability to meet our expenses and debt obligations will depend on our future performance, which will be affected by financial, business, economic, regulatory, and other factors. We will be unable to control many of these factors, such as economic conditions. We cannot be certain that we will continue to have sufficient capital to allow us to pay the principal and interest on our outstanding debt and meet any other obligations. If we do not have enough money to service our debt, we may be required, but unable to refinance all or part of our existing debt, sell assets, borrow money, or raise equity on terms acceptable to us, if at all, and Coinbase could sell any collateral in a commercially reasonable manner and freeze certain of our accounts, among other measures.
