million, respectively, on July 31,
2023.

holdings as of July 31, 2023 (defined
as if all ETH, sETH-H, LsETH and USDC holdings were
converted into BTC as of that date and added to our BTC holdings)
was approximately 1,617.7 or approximately $47.3 million.
- The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $21.9 million as of July
31, 2023.

4.5% on its staked ETH position for the
month of July 2023.

Investor Notice
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk.
Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider
the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described
under "Risk Factors" in Item 3.D of our most recent Annual Report
on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. If any material risk was to
occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations
would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities
could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment.
The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones
facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we
currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations.
In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable
indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not
be used to anticipate results in the future. Future changes in the
network-wide mining difficulty rate or bitcoin hash
rate may also materially affect the future performance of Bit
Digital's production of bitcoin. Actual operating
results will vary depending on many factors including network
difficulty rate, total hash rate of the network, the operations of
our facilities, the status of our miners, and other factors.

[1] "BTC equivalent" is a hypothetical illustration of the value
of our digital asset portfolio in bitcoin terms. BTC

of ETH, sETH-h, LsETH, and USDC, were converted into
BTC as of July 31, 2023, and added to
our existing BTC balance. Conversion values are found using the
closing price on coinmarketcap.com. The closing price of
ETH is used as a proxy for the price of sETH-H
(receipt token) on a 1:1 basis.
