## Resource

Alex Thorn talks with Anchorwatch co-founder and COO Becca Rubenfeld about building hyper secure Bitcoin wallets, the evolving custody landscape, and insurance in the Bitcoin world. Alex and Becca also discuss her battle with cancer, her decision to be public about her diagnosis and treatment, and how her fight against cancer has changed her worldview. Alex also talks with Beimnet Abebe (Galaxy Trading) about the Strait of Hormuz, equity markets, and Bitcoin’s rally. Participants, along with Galaxy Digital, hold a financial interest in (BTC). Galaxy regularly engages in buying and selling BTC, including hedging transactions, for its own proprietary accounts and on behalf of its counterparties. Galaxy also provides services to vehicles that invest in BTC. If the value of such assets increases, those vehicles may benefit, and Galaxy’s service fees may increase accordingly. The valuation in this communication is based on technical, fundamental, and market analysis and not on any formal valuation method. For more information, please refer to Galaxy’s public filings and statements. Cryptocurrencies, including BTC, are inherently volatile and risky and ultimate market movements may not align with this statement. For additional risks related to digital assets, please refer to the risk factors contained in filings Galaxy Digital Inc. makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time, including its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, available at www.sec.gov.
