Material Changes and Events
The Company is executing a strategic wind-down of two major agreements due to Native Markets ceasing support for the USDH stablecoin:
- Native Markets Termination: The Temporary Use Agreement is terminating effective June 18, 2026. All 300,000 HYPE tokens (plus accrued staking rewards) were un-staked and returned to the Company on June 3, 2026. Fees owed under the agreement have been received.

Outlook, Management Commentary, and Risks
Management Strategy: The Company intends to reposition the approximately 800,000 recovered HYPE tokens into strategies expected to be more profitable in the future.
Risks and Contingencies:
