(“OTC Markets”) to issue this statement about promotional activity concerning its common shares (the “Shares”) traded on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”) (operated by OTC Markets).
On September 29, 2025, OTC Markets informed the Company that it became aware of certain promotional activities concerning the Company and its Shares traded on the OTCQB, including the distribution of two newsletters (collectively, the “Promotional Materials”) published by Gold Standard Media LLC (“GSM”), discussing the Company, its Bittensor business, and the digital assets market generally.
On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into an advertising agreement with GSM, whereby GSM would provide investor relations and advertising services to the Company. The Company was therefore aware of GSM’s promotional activities respecting the Company since July 28, 2025. Accordingly, the Promotional Materials were paid for by the Company through its engagement of GSM.

The Company encourages all investors to undertake proper due diligence and carefully consider all investment decisions. The Company directs potential investors to rely solely on its filings and disclosures made with the Canadian Securities Administrators, available at www.sedarplus.ca.
