  • The gain will be reflected in the Company’s Q4 2025 financial statements, bolstering liquidity and reinforcing non‑correlated revenue streams.
  • Management cites a moderating influx of Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs) as creating a more balanced market that should enable further arbitrage opportunities.

Key Details

  • Total 2025 DeFi Alpha Trades to Date: $27 million.
  • Financial Impact: The $3.2 M gain will increase Q4 2025 earnings and overall liquidity, supporting the Company’s financial position.
