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, 2020. 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

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. Additionally, all discussions of financial
metrics assume mining difficulty rates as of September 2021. See "Safe Harbor Statement"
below.
