DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLICANT AND ITS ACTIVITIES:

B HODL is a company led by an experienced British team and is dedicated to generating low-risk, sustainable revenue through operational activities focused on the acquisition, accumulation and management of Bitcoin. The company's initial business model centres around the operation of Lightning Network nodes, which generate revenue by charging fees for routing Bitcoin transactions. By leveraging the scalability and efficiency of the Lightning Network, B HODL aims to capitalise on transaction fee income and provide inbound liquidity to other Lightning node operators as its first lines of business.

The Lightning Network, on which B HODL's revenue-generating operations will be built, is a second-layer protocol for Bitcoin that enables faster and cheaper transactions by channelling payments through a network of interconnected nodes. Operator nodes, such as those managed and to be managed by B HODL, earn fees for forwarding transactions, creating a scalable and innovative revenue model.

B HODL is led by a team that shares a long-standing commitment to Bitcoin as a monetary asset and open protocol. Beyond commercial objectives, the Company is focused on supporting the development and resilience of the Bitcoin ecosystem, contributing to its infrastructure, and advancing its use as a global financial standard.
