Analysis · ANY · Crypto Assets
Shareholders overwhelmingly approved the company's continuance from Ontario to British Columbia and the name change to DarkHorse Technologies Inc., with the ticker symbol set to change from ANY to DRK. The vote results were expected, but the filing also discloses a new U.S. Customs and Border Protection notice asserting Chinese origin on Bitcoin miners purchased in 2022, which could add up to $2.2 million in tariff liability. That is a material new risk for a company that reported only $2.8 million in cash as of August 14, 2026, and already warned it may run out of cash within a year.
