  OVERALL PERFORMANCE AND DISCUSSION OF OPERATIONS

  Highlights for the six months ended February 28, 2025 and up to April 17, 2025

• During the six months ended February 28, 2025, the Company repurchased and cancelled 276,500 common shares at an average price per share of approx. $0.51 for gross repurchases of $139,965. The purchases were made through a Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB") the Company announced on March 21, 2024. On April 7, 2025, a renewal of the NCIB was accepted by the TSX Venture Exchange. The renewed NCIB allows the Company to purchase for cancellation up to 11,328,130 common shares of the Company, representing 10% of the public float as defined by the TSX Venture Exchange as of April 7, 2025 and will commence on April 14, 2025 and will terminate on April 13, 2026, unless the maximum amount of common shares is purchased before then or the Company provides earlier notice of termination.

• On February 21, 2025, the Company entered into an exclusive Solana staking agreement with Sol Strategies Inc. Through this agreement, the Company will stake Solana with Sol Strategies, leveraging their blockchain infrastructure to maximize staking efficiency. In addition to the standard staking rewards, Neptune will also receive a share of validator block rewards which is a benefit typically only validator operators receive. This innovative revenue-sharing structure enhances the Company's staking returns and further diversifies its revenue streams.

• On February 19, 2025, the Company was recognized as a 2025 TSX Venture 50 performer for the second consecutive year and the third time in four years.

The Company is also earning USD and CAD interest income on its cash with Canadian federally regulated financial institutions. The Company commenced earning revenues in November 2017, therefore has limited history and no assurances that historical performance will be indicative of future performance. The Company has positive working capital but may be reliant on external financing to take advantage of growth opportunities. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to earn digital tokens, and if necessary, liquidate digital tokens, or on its ability to raise external financing.

     As at February 28, 2025 the Company had a working capital balance of $6,317,405. Significant items included cash of $937,372 and investments in equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss of $9,643,720.

   • Net cash used in operating activities was $1,258,971 (2024 - $1,748,439). The majority of this was used to fund Bitcoin mining expenses, office costs, consulting costs, professional fees, listing/filing fees, and maintain IT infrastructure.

   • Net cash used in investing activities was $5,992,440 (2024 - $548,398). The cash received was:

     $1,528,378 (2024 - $10,055,510) from redemption of short-term investments, $2,744,961 (2024 -

     $6,020,892) from settlement of loans receivable, $nil (2024 - $92,307) generated from the sale of digital currencies - intangible assets, and $nil from return of deposits (2024 -$81,378). The cash used was:

     $5,839,561 (2024 - $9,118,955) to issue loans receivable, $4,426,218 (2024 - $477,044) to purchase digital currencies - intangible assets, and $nil (2024 - $7,423,878) to purchase short-term investments.

$17,403,179 and total shareholders equity as at February 28, 2025 was $67,171,756. As at April 17, 2025, the Company's equity structure is disclosed below:

RISK FACTORS

The Company is in the business of the acquisition, construction, and operation of blockchain infrastructure assets and projects. Due to the high growth of, and maturing marketplace around, blockchain technologies and cryptocurrency markets in general, and the nature of the Company's proposed business plan, the following risk factors, among others, will apply:

Volatility and Speculation in Cryptocurrency Markets: The Company's operations involving cryptocurrency, blockchain nodes, and mining are inherently linked to the volatile and speculative nature of cryptocurrency markets. This volatility affects the pricing, hashing power, and block rewards, making it challenging to predict the future net asset value of blockchain assets and the potential earnings from block rewards. Cryptocurrency technology is still in the early stages of development, with assets being difficult to acquire, secure, and not fully regulated, further contributing to price instability. These factors can significantly influence the value of the Company's assets, the economics of the Company's mining operations, and the expected yield from rewards over time.

Blockchain Technology: Blockchain network technology is a development stage ecosystem with many stakeholders including miners, stakers, investors, nodes and/or masternodes and/or delegators, and other ecosystem participants. Due to the decentralised and development stage nature of blockchains, the Company cannot forecast what changes will occur to the structure of these blockchains over time, and how protocol upgrades will affect the valuation of the Company's hardware infrastructure assets and underlying cryptocurrencies.

Collusion and Third-Party Attacks: By its very nature, blockchain technologies are decentralized and subject to possible manipulation. This includes the risk of a 51% attack on a blockchain's mining network hashing power, where a malicious third party is able to reverse transactions on the blockchain through centralised control of an entire blockchain's mining power. Although considered remote, a 51% attack, and other malicious attempts to control, attack, or manipulate a particular blockchain is outside of the Management's control.

Counterparty Risk: Counterparty risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a third party fails to meet its contractual obligations or maintain a business in good standing. The Company is exposed to counterparty risk primarily through its significant deposits it places with cryptocurrency custodial service providers. The risk of

a cryptocurrency custodial service provider failing to meet its contractual obligations, maintain adequate levels of security, or maintain a business in good standing may result in lost cryptocurrency.

Security Risks: Given the immutable nature of blockchain technologies, a risk exists that a malicious third party could attempt to hack or steal the Company's cryptocurrencies or tokens or other digital assets and the Company or its custodial partners may be unable to recover them. See safeguarding of crypto assets for further discussion of security protocols.

Financing Risks: The Company has limited financial resources, has limited source of operating cash flow and has no assurance that additional funding will be available for it to invest and purchase blockchain infrastructure assets. Failure to raise additional financing could result in a delay or indefinite postponement of further technological investment in the blockchain ecosystem.

Insufficient Financial Resources: The Company may not have sufficient financial resources or crypto revenues to pay operating expenses.

Dilution to the Company's Existing Shareholders: The Company may require additional equity financing to be raised in the future. The Company may issue securities at less than favorable terms to raise sufficient capital to fund its business plan. Any transaction involving the issuance of Common Shares or securities convertible into Common Shares would result in dilution, possibly substantial, to present and prospective holders of Common Shares.

Increased Costs: Management anticipates the costs of tokens and mining equipment could increase over time if demand for cryptocurrency and tokens increases. This will result in increased capital costs to purchase sufficient blockchain assets or mining equipment.

Government Regulation: Blockchain technology assets are a new and emerging asset class of which the regulatory and taxation policies related to the purchase, sale, trading, and ownership of digital tokens may change over time, and as result may have a direct impact on the Company's assets and operating cashflows.

No Assurance of Profitability: The Company has limited history of positive operating earnings and, due to the nature of its business there can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable. The Company has not paid dividends on its Common Shares since incorporation and does not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. The only present source of funds available to the Company is from the sale of its Common Shares or, possibly, from the sale of its cryptocurrency assets. The Company is highly dependent on Bitcoin, Solana, ATOM, Fantom and other tokens maintaining their price at current levels and not materially declining over time.

Uninsured or Uninsurable Risks: The Company's blockchain assets are uninsured and are susceptible to total loss in the event of a theft, security breach, employee error or IT malfunction. The Company takes every available precaution to reduce the risk of blockchain asset losses due to theft, security breach, employee error or IT malfunction. See safeguarding of crypto assets for further discussion of security protocols.

SAFEGUARDING OF CRYPTO AND TOKEN ASSETS

As at February 28, 2025 the Company had crypto assets, totalling $54,233,560 held in cold storage, hot wallets, and on platforms or exchanges.

All crypto assets are not insured. That said, given the nascent nature of this business, there are no insurance products yet available which are affordable and available to the Company. The Company continues to assess the ability to eventually insure any crypto assets held in the treasury.

Cold Storage

Cold storage wallets are crypto wallets held offline on a physical device. The Company holds a variety of assets in cold storage which include Atom, Bitcoin, Dash, Ethereum, Polkadot, Solana, and others. Cold storage is the most secure method of storage and the Company holds both the cold storage wallets and the partial keys in separate locations. All cold storage wallets are held in secure vaulted locations with an identical backup cold storage wallet held in a separate city to minimize geographical risk. The keys are separated in half with each half being stored with a second and third location to eliminate risk of theft of full key for any individual location. These assets can only be accessed by two directors or officers of the Company attending the location and signing in.

Hot Wallets

Hot wallets are wallets that are connected through the internet and accessed through either a website or an app, such as MetaMask. The Company stores some of their crypto assets in hot wallets in order to transact in the decentralized finance space and other blockchain projects. Hot wallets have additional exposure over cold wallets as they are always connected to the internet, therefore risks include hacking, phishing, collusion, third party risk of loss and other malicious thwarting to security. The Company takes security seriously and as such uses all available security protocols such as 2FA, PINs and passwords only available to the Company CEO and COO, whitelisting of addresses and HODL modes where available on accounts so that tokens requested to be moved require a delay and multiple authorizations. Further details below.

USE OF CRYPTO TRADING PLATFORMS AND EXCHANGES

Neptune periodically acquires cryptocurrency and other crypto-related assets. In order to do so, the Company uses a crypto trading platform such as Amber Group or Galaxy Digital. The Company does not intend to store material sums of crypto assets on crypto trading platforms as a wallet and generally uses an exchange to purchase assets and then move assets to either hot wallets or cold storage once a transaction is complete. In order to move funds from the bank to a crypto trading platform, both the CEO and COO are required to release payments. Additionally, crypto trading platforms incorporate passwords for login and 2FA in order to access the websites. Specific risks of loss when using crypto trading platforms would be sending to the incorrect wallet address after a purchase is made, this risk is mitigated by a multiple review process by two officers and whitelisting specific regularly used addresses of both cold storage and hot wallets.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As at February 28, 2025 and as at the date of this report the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

The Company has entered into certain transactions with related parties during the six months ended February 28, 2025. All transactions with related parties have occurred in the normal course of operations and are measured at the exchange amount, which is the amount of consideration established and agreed upon by the related parties.

Key management personnel include those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the activities of the Company as a whole. The Company has determined that key management personnel consist of members of the Company's Board of Directors and corporate officers.

A description of the transactions with Key Management Personnel are:

1. The Company has a consulting agreement (the "Spartan Agreement") with Spartan Pacific Financial Ltd. ("Spartan"), a company owned by Cale Moodie, the Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which Spartan agreed to provide management consulting services to the Company.

The Company will pay Major Big $27,667 per month plus an annual bonus up to 100% of the Major Big Fees measured against performance milestones. The Company has the right to terminate the Major Big Agreement by providing 24 months' notice or paying the equivalent of 24 months in fees.

3. The Company has a consulting agreement (the "To Consulting Agreement") with Carmen To Consulting Corp. ("To Consulting"), a company owned by Carmen To, the Chief Financial Officer, pursuant to which To Consulting agreed to provide consulting services to the Company. The Company will pay To Consulting $14,167 per month plus an annual bonus up to 100% of the To Consulting Fees measured against performance milestones. The Company has the right to terminate the To Consulting Agreement by providing 24 months' notice or paying the equivalent of 24 months in fees.

   In addition to the transactions above:

   • The Company paid or accrued director fees during the six months ended February 28, 2025, $58,760 (2024 - $56,500) to independent directors.

   • As at February 28, 2025, there is $47,436 (August 31, 2024 - $576,842) due to directors and officers of the Company included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The balances to related parties are unsecured, non-interest bearing and without fixed repayment terms.

   • As at February 28, 2025, there is $448,889 (August 31, 2024 - $454,375) of subscription receivable from two private Canadian companies where the Company's CEO is the majority owner. This amount is included in amounts receivable and prepaid expenses. The balance is a result of common shares issued on the exercise of warrants.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

Critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements include the evaluation of the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and the following:

Income taxes:

Management exercises judgment to determine the extent to which deferred tax assets are recoverable and can therefore be recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position and income and comprehensive income.

Functional currency:

The functional currency of the Company has been assessed by management based on consideration of the currency and economic factors that mainly influence the Company's digital currencies, production and operating costs, financing, and related transactions. Specifically, the Company considers the currencies in which digital currencies are most denominated and expenses are settled by each entity as well as the currency in which each entity receives or raises financing. Changes to these factors may have an impact on the judgment applied in the determination of the Company's functional currency.

Since Neptune USA is a foreign operation, the Company applied judgement to determine whether Neptune USA carries on business as if it were an extension of the parent company. Management determined that Neptune USA is an extension of the parent company and is assumed to operate in the same primary economic environment as the parent company and should have the same functional currency as the parent company.

Digital currency transactions and balances:

Digital currencies as intangible assets or inventories

Certain digital assets are transacted on DeFi platforms' liquidity pools and are purchased with the intent to resell in the near future, generating a profit from margins or from fluctuations in prices. The Company applies the inventory treatment of a broker-trader under IAS 2 Inventories ("IAS 2").

In determining the fair value of digital currencies, management needs to apply judgments to identify the relevant available markets, and to consider accessibility to and activity within those markets in order to identify the principal digital asset markets for the Company.

Digital currencies related to lending activities representing digital currencies loaned out to third parties are accounted for as intangible assets and are presented separately on the consolidated statement of financial position. Management determined that digital currencies loaned out to third parties do not meet the derecognition criteria of IAS 38.

In June 2019, the IFRS IC published its agenda decision on 'Holdings of Cryptocurrencies,' and management exercises significant judgment in determining the appropriate accounting treatment for matters with no current definitive and uniform answers. In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the IASB, the Company may be required to change its policies, which could have an effect on the Company's consolidated financial position and results from operations.

Accounting for mining revenue and rewards earned from providing liquidity in liquidity pools and staking rewards

There is currently no specific definitive guidance in IFRS or alternative accounting frameworks for accounting for (a) mining of digital assets, (b) rewards from providing liquidity in liquidity pools, (c) trading fees earned on DeFi platforms and (d) staking rewards. Management has exercised significant judgment in determining appropriate accounting treatments for these revenue and other income items. Management has determined the accounting treatments as follows:

• The Company measures bitcoins from mining at the spot price when the consideration is received daily, which is not materially different from the fair value at the time the Company has earned the awards from the pools. Bitcoins received are subsequently measured as an intangible asset.

• Revenue from rewards from providing liquidity in liquidity pools is measured at the spot price of the reward tokens at the inception of the contract. Digital assets received are subsequently measured as inventories using the broker-dealer exemption in IAS 2. As at February 28, 2025 and August 31, 2024, all of the reward tokens received have been disposed of.

• Staking rewards are measured at fair value by reference to the quoted market price of the rewards at the beginning of the contract. Digital assets received are subsequently measured as an intangible asset.

  In the event authoritative guidance is enacted by the IASB, the Company may be required to change its policies which could result in a change in the Company's financial position and earnings.

  Digital currencies receivable from centralized exchanges

  Currently, no explicit IFRS exists on determining the accounting ownership of custodied digital assets. Therefore, the Company looked to the available non-authoritative guidance. To make the accounting ownership determination, the Company considered the guidance in IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors ("IAS 8") when developing an accounting policy for such assets.

  The Company used the following principles, by analogy, in accounting ownership determination:

• Control principle under IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("IFRS 15") and

• Analysis of the characteristics of an asset as described in the IASB's revised 2018 Conceptual Framework.

The Company assessed the terms and conditions governing the arrangement with centralized exchanges and concluded that the derecognition requirements in IAS 38 are met. Accordingly, the Company does not retain control over the assets and when such assets are transferred from cold storage to the Company's accounts held with centralized exchanges, the intangible assets are derecognized and reclassified to digital currencies receivable from centralized exchanges. The assets derecognized were revalued to their fair value on the dates of derecognition. Digital currencies purchased in the accounts held with centralized exchanges are classified as digital currencies receivable from centralized exchanges.

Control over staked digital assets

Management applied judgment whether the Company, either acting as a validator or a delegator in a staking activity, should continue to recognize staked digital assets as its own assets on the consolidated statement of financial position. The Company assessed that it should continue to recognize staked digital assets as its own assets after applying the control principle in IFRS 15.

Investments in equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss

Included in investments in equity instruments at fair value through profit or loss are a 41.45% investment in a US private company, a non-controlling interest in another US private company, and a non-controlling interest in a private investment fund. Management accounted for such investments at fair value to profit or loss under IFRS 9, because the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee. The Company does not have any contractual right to appoint any representative to the investee's board of directors. In addition, the Company does not have any participation in policy-making processes and does not have any material transactions with the investee.

The fair value of investments in investment funds which are not quoted in an active market is determined by using net asset value as determined by the investment fund's administrator. Management deems the net asset value to be the fair value after considering key factors such as the liquidity of the investment fund or its underlying investments, any restrictions on redemptions and basis of accounting. The fair value of investments in the US private companies which are not quoted in an active market is determined based on financing rounds of the US private companies or underlying investments.

Accounting for receivables from decentralized platforms relating to liquidity pool tokens

IFRS does not include specific guidance on the accounting for digital assets and there is no clear industry practice and, accordingly, the accounting for digital assets transacted on a DeFi platform's liquidity pools could fall into a variety of different standards. Accordingly, the Company classifies these digital assets as inventories.

Based on the Company's business model associated with liquidity mining (a process which involves depositing cryptocurrencies into a DeFi platform's liquidity pool), characteristics of decentralized platforms such as liquidity pools, the nature of liquidity pool tokens including its redeemability feature at the discretion of the holder, the documentation within decentralized platforms that outlines the trading and redemption process, token price determination including final value at redemption, incentives for participation and other factors, the Company has applied judgment and used certain IFRS by analogy. This led to a conclusion that liquidity pool tokens represent a right to receive digital assets and the Company then assessed if this right to receive digital assets is, or includes, a derivative. Based on the Company's assessment, this right represents a hybrid instrument consisting of a host (a prepayment which is not within the scope of IFRS 9) and an embedded derivative (difference between the pro-rata share and fair value of the underlying digital assets).

Identifying whether a contract includes a lease

The Company entered into hosting contracts with third party hosting facilities to provide space and electricity to the equipment used for cryptocurrency mining.

The Company assessed whether the Company has contracted for the rights to substantially all of the capacity of the two third-party hosting facilities and whether the contracts with the third-party hosting facilities contain a lease for the occupied space in these facilities. Based on the Company's assessment of the contract terms, the Company does not have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the two facilities. As a result, management concluded that the Company has not contracted for substantially all the capacity of the facilities, and therefore the contracts do not contain a lease.

Valuation of digital currencies, digital currencies receivable from centralized exchanges and embedded derivative on receivables from decentralized platforms relating to liquidity pool tokens

Digital currencies and digital currencies receivable from centralized exchanges are revalued to their fair value determined based on volume weighted average price from https://www.cryptocompare.com at 7:00 am UTC. The fair value of the embedded derivative on receivables from decentralized platforms relating to liquidity pool tokens be the proportionate number of underlying digital assets associated with the hypothetical redemption of a given liquidity pool token The digital currency market is still a new market and is highly volatile; historical prices are not necessarily indicative of future value; a significant change in the market prices for digital currencies would have a significant impact on the Company's earnings and financial position. In addition, management estimates that selling costs will be nominal.

Depreciation of property and equipment

Depreciation of property and equipment is dependent upon estimates of useful lives, which are determined through the exercise of judgment.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment of these non-financial assets exists when the carrying value of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. These calculations are based on available data, other observable inputs and projections of cash flows, all of which are subject to estimates and assumptions.

Calculation loss allowance

When measuring ECL the Company uses reasonable and supportable forward-looking information, which is based on assumptions for the future movement of different economic drivers and how these drivers will affect each other.

Loss given default is an estimate of the loss arising on default. It is based on the difference between the contractual cash flows due and those that the lender would expect to receive, taking into account cash flows from collateral and integral credit enhancements.

Probability of default constitutes a key input in measuring ECL. Probability of default is an estimate of the likelihood of default over a given time horizon, the calculation of which includes historical data, assumptions, and expectations of future conditions.

Share based compensation

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model ("Black-Scholes") to estimate the fair value of stock options granted to directors, employees, and consultants. The use of Black-Scholes requires management to make various estimates and assumptions that impact the value assigned to the stock options including the forecast future volatility of the stock price, the risk-free interest rate, dividend yield and the expected life of the stock options. Any changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on the share-based compensation calculation value, however the most significant estimate is the volatility. Expected future volatility can be difficult to estimate as the Company has had limited history and is in a unique industry, and historical volatility is not necessarily indicative of future volatility.

Mining revenue

The Company has entered into cryptocurrency mining pools by executing contracts with mining pool operators to provide computing power to the mining pool. The contracts are terminable at any time by either party without prior written notice and payment of a termination penalty is not required. The only amounts due are related to previously satisfied performance obligations which may be pending at termination (i.e. outstanding compensation earned by the Company via contribution of computing power to the pool per the contractual payment model). The Company's enforceable right to compensation begins upon providing computing power to the mining pool operator and this enforceable right is created as power is provided over time. Providing computing power to the mining pool operators is an output of the Company's ordinary activities and providing such computing power represents the only performance obligation in the Company's contracts with mining pool operators. There is no significant financing component present in these transactions. Furthermore, the agreement does result in consideration payable to the customer in the form of a pool operator fee (in bitcoin).

The Company earns revenue under payout models determined by the mining pool operators. The payout model relevant to the Company during the six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024 is the Full Pay Per Share ("FPPS") model.

Under the FPPS model, in exchange for providing computing power to the pool, which represents the Company's performance obligation, the Company is entitled to compensation at an amount that approximates the total bitcoin that could have been mined using the Company's computing power, based upon the then current blockchain difficulty. Under this model, the Company is entitled to compensation regardless of whether the pool operator successfully records a block to the bitcoin blockchain.

The terms of the contracts specify that the performance and the expected block reward and expected transaction fees are measured either hourly or daily and are calculated from midnight-to-midnight UTC time or calculated on a look-back basis across a specified number of previous blocks. Although the performance and payment are measured hourly, certain contract allows the Company to receive its allocable share of compensation daily. Payments are associated with computing power provided during one UTC day and not combined with those for previous days.

Due to the continuous nature of the provision of computing power to the pool, the Company has determined that its performance obligation is satisfied over time. The provision of computing power represents a single

performance obligation that represents a promise to transfer to the customer a series of distinct goods that are substantially the same and that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer.

Under the FPPS model, the transaction consideration the Company receives is also non-cash consideration, which the Company measures at the spot price when the consideration is received daily, which is not materially different from the fair value at the time the Company has earned the award from the pools.

Under the FPPS approach, the Company's reward is based upon the pool operator's standard FPPS payout methodology. This payout methodology determines the Company's payout, in bitcoin, based on the hashrate the Company contributed to the mining pool relative to the current network difficulty at the end of each 24-hour time-period (i.e. at 23:59 UTC) or at the end of each hour calculated on a look-back basis across a specified number of previous blocks. Revenue is calculated and recognized on a daily or an hourly basis in accordance with the payout methodology of the pool operators as specified in the Company's contracts.

Staking revenue

Staking is the act of posting digital assets as collateral to a proof-of-stake ("PoS") blockchain network either as

(1) a validator or (2) a delegator.

A validator is a blockchain participant (e.g., an individual or entity) that verifies transactions on a PoS blockchain as part of the blockchain's consensus mechanism. Validators generally must be node operators to sign blocks of transactions as valid.

A delegator is an individual or entity that stakes its digital assets with a trusted validator instead of operating a node and validating blockchain transactions itself.

As a validator in staking activity, the Company earns income from staking in which the Company participates in networks with PoS consensus algorithms, through creating or validating blocks on the network. In exchange for participating in the consensus mechanism of these networks, the Company earns rewards in the form of the native token of the network. Each block creation or validation is a performance obligation. Rewards are recognized at the point when the block creation or validation is complete and the rewards are available for transfer. Other income is measured based on the number of tokens earned and the fair value of the token when it was earned.

Staking income from running a validator node is not significant during the six months ended February 28, 2025 and February 29, 2024.

As a delegator in staking activity, the Company secures the network by delegating its stake to validator nodes. The Company earns a portion of the rewards generated by validators by securing the network and producing blocks per respective period/epoch/era (varies based on the platform or the chain).

When the Company elects to de-stake digital assets acting either as delegator or validator, an unbonding period may apply. During this period, the Company typically no longer earns staking rewards on the de-staked digital assets and is subject to slashing, but it cannot sell (or otherwise transfer) those digital assets. The unbonding period varies based on the platform or the chain.

The performance obligation is the delegation of the Company's tokens to a validator node for certain contract term (which varies from one chain to another) plus the unbonding period. In determining the contract term, the Company considered the length of time during which the Company can monitor and can decide whether to exit from the reward pool and whether the Company has reasonable ability to do so. Every contract term the Company

will decide on whether to unbond its position from the staking pool without additional cost or penalty. Since the smart contract will renew without additional cost under the same terms, there is not a material right associated with the evergreen renewal clause. Therefore, the Company assessed that there are no material rights for future services granted under the contract.

The Company assessed that each contract renewal is considered as a contract modification. The Company further assessed that the contract modification is a separate contract because the modification results in a promise to deliver additional services that are distinct (i.e. delegating tokens to a delegation pool); and an increase in the price of the contract by an amount of consideration that reflects the Company's stand-alone selling price for those services (i.e. pro-rata share of rewards based on the proportion of the Company's delegated assets relative to the total of other delegated assets and the validator's own assets less any commissions charged by the validator).

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The consideration promised in a contract with a customer may include fixed amounts, variable amounts, or both. When determining the transaction price relating to rewards from liquidity staking, the Company considered the effects of all of the following:

• Variable consideration,

• Constraining estimates of variable consideration,

• The existence of a significant financing component in the contract, and

• Non-cash consideration.

The consideration is all variable because staking rewards earned will be proportional to the total number of delegated assets staked and network's inflation rate. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the Company is able to resolve the variable consideration, which occurs at the end of each contract term. Revenue is recognized over time, which is measured at the beginning of each contract term. The transaction consideration the Company receives is non-cash consideration, which the Company measures at fair value by reference to the quoted market price of the rewards at the beginning of each day (i.e. inception of the contract).

Interest income from loans receivable classified as at amortized cost and from loans receivable classified as at FVTPL

From time to time, the Company loans out cash to earn interest. The loans classified as at amortized cost are in both open and closed terms at varying interest rates. Interest rates are based on a percentage of cash loaned and are denominated in cash. The loans classified as at FVTPL are in closed terms with term borrow fees classified as interest income received at the commencement of the loan.

Interest income from loans receivable is presented as part of other income as management deems this as part of its ancillary operations.

Assets and liabilities are presented in the consolidated statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realized or intended to be sold or consumed in the Company's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being

exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the consolidated entity's normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as non-current.

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

The Company has classified digital currencies as either intangible assets under IAS 38 or inventories under IAS 2, depending on facts and circumstances.

Digital currencies - intangible assets

Digital currencies that are expected to be realized within 12 months of the reporting period are recorded as current assets on the consolidated statement of financial position. All other digital currencies are classified as non-current.

Management of the Company views each digital currency as an intangible asset as it is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance and accordingly the Company uses the revaluation model, as permitted under IAS 38 to measure its digital currencies. Initially, the digital currencies are measured at cost. For purposes of revaluation, fair value is determined by reference to the volume weighted average price from https://www.cryptocompare.com at 7:00 am UTC.

If the carrying amount of a digital currency is increased as a result of a revaluation, the increase is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the heading of revaluation surplus. However, the increase is recognized in profit or loss to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognized in profit or loss.

If the carrying amount of a digital currency is decreased as a result of a revaluation, the decrease is recognized in profit or loss. However, the decrease is recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent of any credit balance in the other comprehensive income in respect to that digital currency.

The Company does not transfer the cumulative revaluation surplus included in equity directly to retained earnings when the surplus is realized. The whole surplus may be realized on the disposal of the asset.

The Company has assessed that the digital currencies have an indefinite useful life because there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the assets are expected to generated cash inflows for the Company.

Purchases of digital currencies by the Company are included within investing activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows, while digital currencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows. The sales of digital currencies are included within investing activities on the consolidated statement of cash flows and any realized gains or

losses from such sales are included as an item under other items on the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

Digital currencies that are used in lending activities do not meet the derecognition criteria under IAS 38 and are presented as digital currencies related to lending activities on the consolidated statement of financial position. When a digital currency is transferred to digital currencies related to lending activities, both the revalued amount and the corresponding cost of the digital currency are transferred to that category.

The Company's realized gain or loss on digital currencies is calculated as the proceeds received from the sale of digital currencies less their cost, which is determined on a First-in, First-out basis.

Digital currencies - inventories

Certain digital assets are transacted in decentralized platforms and are purchased with the intent to resell in the near future, generating a profit from margins or from the fluctuations in prices. The Company applies the inventory treatment of a broker-trader under IAS 2 to these digital assets. Under IAS 2, the digital assets are measured at fair value less cost to sell, with change in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Costs are determined on a First-in, First-out basis and realized gains or losses when digital assets are sold.

At February 28, 2025 and August 31, 2024, the Company did not have any digital currencies classified as inventories because the Company did not purchase any digital currencies that would be used in liquidity service arrangement.

Share-based payments include option and stock grants granted to directors, employees and consultants. The Company accounts for share-based compensation using a fair value-based method with respect to all share-based payments measured and recognized, to directors, employees and consultants. For directors and employees, the fair value of the options and stock grants is measured at the date of grant. For consultants, the fair value of the options and stock are measured at the fair value of the goods or services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, if it is determined the fair value of the goods or services cannot be reliably measured, and are recorded at the date the goods or services are received. For directors, employees and consultants, the fair value of the options and stock grants is accrued and charged to operations, with the offsetting credit to share based payment reserve for options, and commitment to issue shares for stock grants over the vesting period. If and when the stock options are exercised, the applicable amounts are transferred from share-based payment reserve to share capital. When the stock grants are issued, the applicable fair value is transferred from commitment to issue shares to share capital. Option based compensation awards are calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model while stock grants are valued at the fair value on the date of grant.

The Company has granted certain directors and consultants restricted share units ("RSUs") to be settled in shares of the Company. The fair value of the estimated number of RSUs that will eventually vest, determined at the date of grant, is recognized as share-based compensation expense over the vesting period, with a corresponding amount recorded as equity. The fair value of the RSUs is estimated using the market value of the underlying shares as well as assumptions related to the market and non-market conditions at the grant date.

The income tax expense or credit for the period is the tax payable on the current period's taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences and to unused tax losses.

The current taxation is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries the Company and its subsidiary operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation and establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for deferred income tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that substantive enactment occurs. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a deferred income tax asset will be recovered, the deferred income tax asset is not recognized. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset only if a legally enforceable right exists to offset current tax assets against liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on the same taxable entity.

Provisions are recorded when a present legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of past events where it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the weighted average share outstanding are increased to include additional shares for the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants, if dilutive. The number of additional shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options and warrants were exercised and that the proceeds from such exercises were used to acquire common stock at the average market price during the reporting periods.

Financial assets

Initial recognition and measurement

Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at FVTPL, amortized cost, or fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.

FVTPL - financial assets are classified as fair value through profit or loss if they do not meet the criteria of amortized cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. Changes in fair value are recognized in profit and loss.

Amortized cost - financial assets are classified as measured at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met and the financial assets are not designated as FVTPL: 1) The objective of the Company's business model for these financial assets is to collect their contractual cash flows; and 2) the assets contractual cash flow represents solely payments of principal and interest.

Subsequent measurement - financial assets at amortized cost

After initial recognition, financial assets measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at the end of each reporting period at amortized cost using the Effective Interest Rate ("EIR") method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.

Derecognition

A financial asset is derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or the Company no longer retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership. When there is no reasonable expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.

Financial liabilities

Initial recognition and measurement

The Company classifies its financial liabilities into one of two categories, depending on the purpose for which the liability was incurred. The Company's accounting policy for each category is as follows:

Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost, unless they are required to be measured at FVTPL, as is the case with derivative instruments and, or the Company has opted to measure the financial liability at FVTPL. All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value, and where applicable net of directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent measurement - financial liabilities at amortized cost

After initial recognition, financial liabilities measured at amortized cost are subsequently measured at the end of each reporting period at amortized cost using the EIR method. Amortized cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or premium on acquisition and any fees or costs that are an integral part of the EIR.

Derecognition

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged, cancelled, or expires with any associated gain or loss recognized in other income or expense in the statement for profit or loss.

Embedded derivatives

An embedded derivative is a component of a hybrid contract that also includes a non-derivative host - with the effect that some of the cash flows of the combined instrument vary in a way similar to a stand-alone derivative. Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with a financial asset host within the scope of IFRS 9 are not separated. The entire hybrid contract is classified and subsequently measured as either amortized cost or fair value as appropriate.

Derivatives embedded in hybrid contracts with hosts that are not financial assets within the scope of IFRS 9 (e.g., financial liabilities) are treated as separate derivatives when they meet the definition of a derivative, their risks and characteristics are not closely related to those of the host contracts and the host contracts are not measured at FVTPL.

If the hybrid contract is a quoted financial liability, instead of separating the embedded derivative, the Company generally designates the whole hybrid contract at FVTPL.

An embedded derivative is presented as a non-current asset or non-current liability if the remaining maturity of the hybrid instrument to which the embedded derivative relates is more than 12 months and is not expected to be realized or settled within 12 months.

Offsetting of financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the consolidated statement of financial position if there is a currently enforceable legal right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.

The Company's financial instruments are classified as follows:

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Company's non-financial assets, other than deferred income tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the assets' recoverable amount is estimated. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or group of assets (the "cash-generating unit").

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of a cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cost flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specific to the assets. Impairment losses are recognized in net income (loss).

Impairment losses recognized in prior years are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset's carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, if no impairment loss has been recognized.

Financial assets

The Company assesses all information available, including on a forward-looking basis, the expected credit losses ("ECL") associated with its assets carried at amortized cost. The impairment methodology applied depends on whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk. To assess whether there is a significant increase in credit risk, the Company compares the risk of a default occurring on the asset as the reporting date, with the risk of default as at the date of initial recognition, based on all information available, and reasonable and supportive forward-looking information.

The Company recognizes lifetime ECL when there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition. However, if the credit risk on the financial instrument has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Company measures the loss allowance for that financial instrument at an amount equal to 12-month ECL. Lifetime ECL represents the expected credit losses that will result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. In contrast, 12-month ECL represents the portion of lifetime ECL that is expected to result from default events on a financial instrument that are possible within 12 months after the reporting date.

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. The Company provides for depreciation using a straight-line basis of 40 years for building, the declining balance at 20% per year for furniture, and the declining balance at 50% per year for all mining equipment.

For unit share issuances consisting of common shares and warrants, the Company uses the fair value of common shares as the more reliably measurable instrument. The proceeds from the issuance of units are first allocated to the share capital and the residual amount, being the difference between the proceeds from issuance and the fair value of the common shares, is allocated to warrants.

Comprehensive income is the change in the Company's net assets that results from transactions, events and circumstances from sources other than the Company's shareholders and includes items that are not included in net profit. Other comprehensive income consists of changes to unrealized gains and losses on digital currencies that are measured at revalued amounts during the period. Comprehensive income measures net earnings for the period plus other comprehensive income. Amounts reported as other comprehensive income are accumulated in a separate component of shareholders' equity as revaluation surplus.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

Management of capital

The Company's objective when managing capital is to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders. The Company considers the items included in shareholders' equity as capital. The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in response to changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. The Company's primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has sufficient cash resources to acquire more cryptocurrencies and fund the operations and investments of the Company. To secure the additional capital necessary to pursue these plans, the Company intends to raise additional funds through the equity or debt financing. The Company is not subject to any capital requirements imposed by a regulator.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Investments in equity instruments at fair value through 11,978,303 8,625,700 profit or loss

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loan payable approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Fair value measurement

The Company classifies its fair value measurements in accordance with an established hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs in valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data for the asset or liability.

The following table sets forth the Company's assets measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy as at February 28, 2025 and August 31, 2024.

• The fair value of digital currencies - intangible assets is determined by reference to the volume average weighted price provided by https://www.cryptocompare.com, an independent third-party pricing aggregator that makes publicly available, for each relevant digital asset, volume weighted average price calculated from various exchanges, as well as price and volume data by exchange.

• The fair value of loans receivable with put option approximates the carrying value because of its short-term maturity.

• Investments in equity instruments at FVTPL consist of investments in a private fund and US private companies. The fair value of the investment in the private fund is remeasured based on valuation reports provided to the Company by the investment fund administrator. The fair values of the US private companies are based on the arm's length funding rounds of the investee or underlying investment.

There were no transfers between any levels during the year.

Financial risk management

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Financial instruments which are potentially subject to credit risk for the Company consist of primarily cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and loans receivable. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Company has gross credit exposure at February 28, 2025, related to these assets of $937,372. All cash is held at Canadian chartered banks and U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured commercial banks in the United States, which minimizes credit risk. The Company's loans receivable are issued to arm's length parties with which it has previously issued

loans. Credit risk is mitigated by loaning funds to companies based on the size, credit quality and reputation of these arm's length parties that are based and regulated in the United States.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages Company-wide cash projections centrally and regularly updates projections for changes in business and fluctuations caused in digital currency prices and exchange rates.

Interest risk

Interest risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market risk. The Company's exposure to interest rate risk is limited and only relates to its ability to earn interest income on cash balances at variable rates. Changes in short term interest rates will not have a significant effect on the fair value of the Company's cash account.

Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the value of a security or investment will decrease. The Company is exposed to price risk on its investments in equity instruments at FVTPL. A 10% fluctuation in the price of the investees would result in a change of $1,197,830 in the fair value of investments in equity instruments at FVTPL and the change would be recognized in income or loss.

Foreign currency risk

Currency risk relates to the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. Exchange rate fluctuations may affect the costs that the Company incurs in the future in its operations as well as the currency in which the Company has historically raised capital. The Company is currently exposed to currency risk as certain cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, loans receivable, and investments in equity instruments at FVTPL are denominated in US Dollars. A 10% fluctuation in the US Dollar would result in a change to profit or loss of $829,684.

Digital currency risks

Price risk related to digital currencies - intangible assets

Digital asset prices are volatile and affected by various factors including global supply and demand, interest rates, exchanges rates, inflation or deflation and the political and economic conditions. Supply and demand for such assets rapidly change from time to time affecting by regulations and general economic trends. A decline in the market prices of digital assets could impact the Company's future operations. The management of the Company constantly monitors the exposure in response to the market conditions.

Digital assets that the Company deals within its operating and investing activities are various digital currencies which can be traded in a number of public exchanges or through over-the-counter market. The Company's exposure to price risk arises from digital currencies - intangible assets which are measured at revalued amounts.

At February 28, 2025, if the prices of digital currencies - intangible assets held by the Company had decreased by 15% (being a reasonably expected change determined based on average monthly price movements) in the principal markets with other variables held constant, the impact on revaluation surplus arising from changes in
