ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

We are filing this prospectus supplement to amend and update the “Selling Securityholders” table and the applicable footnotes of the Prospectus to reflect (i) a transfer of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“common stock”), from Bitfury Holding B.V. to Bitfury Top HoldCo B.V., both of which are Selling Securityholders previously identified in the Prospectus, and (ii) a transfer of shares of common stock from Peridian Fund, L.P., one of the Selling Securityholders previously identified in the Prospectus, to the additional Selling Securityholders named herein (the “Transferees”). This prospectus supplement is not increasing the number of shares being offered under the Prospectus, but only reflecting the transfers of shares of common stock previously registered and providing certain information about the Transferees and the securities they may offer pursuant to the Prospectus. The information set forth below has been provided by or on behalf of the Selling Securityholders listed below as of December 16, 2022.
