Subsidiary Initial Public Offering

On June 25, 2025, Bit Digital, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the proposed initial public offering of its wholly-owned HPC subsidiary, WhiteFiber, Inc. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Business Strategy Update

On June 25, 2025, the Company also issued a press release announcing that it has initiated a strategic transition to become a pure play Ethereum (“ETH”) staking and treasury company. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The strategic transition reflects the Company’s long-standing conviction and expertise in the Ethereum ecosystem. The Company began accumulating ETH and operating staking infrastructure in 2022 and has steadily increased its holdings since that time. As of March 31, 2025, the Company held 24,434 ETH, valued at approximately $44.6 million based on then-prevailing market prices. Of that total, 21,568 ETH was staked natively on the Ethereum network through a third-party validator operated by Figment Inc. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company generated an average of 3.2% annual percentage yield of ETH.

Given increased regulatory clarity, including the recently passed GENIUS Act, the Company views ETH as a digitally native store of value and foundational infrastructure for decentralized applications and stablecoins. Accordingly, the Company intends to grow its ETH position over time, supported by staking rewards. Through staking, the Company earns rewards that can be reinvested into ETH or used for general corporate purposes. The Company believes that its strategy will drive growth in ETH per ordinary share outstanding.

The Company safeguards its ETH using institutional-grade custodians, including Fireblocks Inc. and Cactus Custody Holding Company. Over time, management expects ETH holdings and staking income to represent the primary source of shareholder value. This strategy marks a significant evolution of the Company’s business model, aligning its capital structure and value proposition with the performance of ETH and associated network economics. The Company believes this approach offers investors a liquid, regulated vehicle for long-term ETH exposure, combining capital markets access with the income potential of Ethereum’s proof-of-stake network.

The Company has commenced a strategic alternatives process for its bitcoin mining operations that is expected to result in their sale or wind-down, with any net proceeds to be re-deployed into ETH. As of March 31, 2025, the Company held 417.6 bitcoin, valued at approximately at approximately $34.5 million based on then-prevailing market prices.

Successfully implementing this strategy may present organizational and infrastructure challenges, and the Company may not be able to fully implement or realize the intended benefits of its strategy. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in implementing its new business strategy. In addition, moving to a new business strategy may result in a loss of established efficiency, which may have a negative impact on the Company’s business. The Company may also face an increased amount of competition as we attempt to expand and grow its business, which may negatively impact its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
