How we checked this
Checked on October 11, 2026. The cited source supports every part of this claim.
The filing states that, once a pledge is made, the lock-up period for the pledged shares is extended an additional three months to November 26, 2023. Bitfury is one of the stockholders covered. The same extension also applies to the other stockholders' pledged shares, which the claim does not deny.
Confirmed in the source:
- Under the April 8, 2022 Waiver Agreement, the lock-up period for any pledged shares held by Bitfury (one of the covered stockholders) is extended
- The extension is an additional three months
- The extended lock-up period ends November 26, 2023
