SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED DECEMBER 20, 2024

PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS

Up to 5,747,126 Units consisting of

Up to 5,747,126 Shares of Common Stock and

Up to 8,620,689 Common Warrants to purchase Up to 8,620,689 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 5,747,126 Pre-Funded Units consisting of

Up to 5,747,126 Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase Up to 5,747,126 Shares of Common Stock and

Up to 8,620,689 Common Warrants to purchase Up to 8,620,689 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 5,747,126 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Pre-Funded Warrants

Up to 8,620,689 Shares of Common Stock Underlying the Common Warrants

We are offering on a best efforts basis up to 5,747,126 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one and one-half common warrants to purchase one and one-half shares of common stock, at an assumed offering price of $1.74 per unit, which is equal to the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC on December 18, 2024, for gross proceeds of up to $10,000,000. The actual public offering price will be determined between us and the placement agent (as defined below) and the investors in the offering and may be at a discount to the current market price of our common stock. Therefore, the assumed public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price.

The common warrants included in the units will have an initial exercise price of $             per share (equal to 100% of the public offering price of each unit sold in this offering), will be exercisable immediately and will expire five years from the date of issuance. For the common warrants, if, on the date that is 30 calendar days immediately following the initial issuance date (the “Reset Date”), the Reset Price, as defined below, is less than the exercise price at such time, the exercise price of the warrants shall be decreased to the Reset Price. “Reset Price” means 100% of the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average prices (VWAPs) during the five trading days immediately preceding the Reset Date, provided, that in no event shall the Reset Price be less than 20% of the most recent closing price at the time of execution of the securities purchase agreement (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions following the date of the securities purchase agreement).

We are also offering the shares of our common stock that are issuable from time to time upon the exercise of the common warrants included in the units.

We are also offering to certain purchasers whose purchase of units in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if any such purchaser so chooses, pre-funded units, each pre-funded unit consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock and the same common warrant described above with each share of common stock, in lieu of units that would otherwise result in such purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding common stock. The purchase price of each pre-funded unit will be equal to the price per unit being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each pre-funded warrant included in the pre-funded units will be $0.0001 per share. The pre-funded warrants will be exercisable immediately and may be exercised at any time until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. For each pre-funded unit we sell, the number of units (and shares of common stock) we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. This offering also relates to the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants included in the pre-funded units.

The units and pre-funded units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities. The shares of common stock or pre-funded warrants and the common warrants comprising the units or the pre-funded units, as the case may be, are immediately separable and will be issued separately in this offering. We are also registering the shares of common stock issuable from time to time upon exercise of the common warrants and pre-funded warrants included in the units and pre-funded units offered hereby.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC under the symbol “ATNF.” We have assumed a public offering price of $1.74 per share, the last reported sales price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on December 18, 2024. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the units, the pre-funded units, the pre-funded warrants, or the common warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants will be limited.

The units and pre-funded units will be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. There is no minimum number of securities or minimum aggregate amount of proceeds for this offering to close. Because there is no escrow account and there is no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill our objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares of our common stock underlying the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants will be offered on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). We expect this offering to be completed not later than one business day following the commencement of sales in this offering, provided, however, the offering will terminate on March 11, 2025, unless the offering is fully subscribed before that date or we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment or receipt versus payment, as the case may be, upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the placement agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the placement agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offered hereunder.

We have engaged Maxim Group LLC (the “placement agent” or “Maxim”), to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with this offering. The placement agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering and the placement agent is not required to arrange the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing in this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent’s fee and proceeds to us, if any, are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the total maximum offering amounts described throughout this prospectus. We have agreed to pay the placement agent, the placement agent fees set forth in the table below and to provide certain other compensation to the placement agent. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information regarding these arrangements.

Industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies generally indicate that their information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. We are responsible for all of the disclosures contained in this prospectus, and we believe these industry publications and third-party research, surveys and studies are reliable, provided that we have not commissioned any such information. While we are not aware of any misstatements regarding any third-party information presented in this prospectus, their estimates, in particular, as they relate to projections, involve numerous assumptions, are subject to risks and uncertainties, and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this prospectus. These and other factors could cause our future performance to differ materially from our assumptions and estimates. Some market and other data included herein, as well as the data of competitors as they relate to 180 Life Sciences Corp., is also based on our good faith estimates.

In addition, unless the context otherwise requires and for the purposes of this prospectus only:

Effective on December 19, 2022 at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time, we affected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our then outstanding common stock, with any fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. Effective on February 28, 2024 at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time, we affected a 1-for 19 reverse stock split of our then outstanding common stock with any fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share.

In connection with the reverse splits discussed above (the “Reverse Stock Splits”), all outstanding options, warrants, and other securities entitling their holders to purchase or otherwise receive shares of common stock were adjusted, as required by the terms of each security. The number of shares available to be awarded under the Company’s equity incentive plans were also appropriately adjusted. Following the Reverse Stock Splits, the par value of the common stock remained unchanged at $0.0001 par value per share. The Reverse Stock Splits did not change the authorized number of shares of common stock or preferred stock.

The effects of the Reverse Stock Splits have been retroactively reflected throughout this prospectus.

Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and include, but are not limited to:

Any forward-looking statements in this prospectus reflect our current views with respect to future events or to our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Risk Factors

Investing in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider and evaluate the risks described in the “Risk Factors” section in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any updates to those risk factors in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and below, together with all of the other information appearing in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before deciding whether to purchase any of the common stock being offered. The risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face, but those that we consider to be material. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could have material adverse effects on our future results. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of shares of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Relating to this Offering and our Common Stock

We currently have an illiquid and volatile market for our common stock, and the market for our common stock is and may remain illiquid and volatile in the future.

We currently have a highly sporadic, illiquid and volatile market for our common stock, which market is anticipated to remain sporadic, illiquid and volatile in the future. During the last 52 weeks our common stock has traded as high as $17.75 per share and as low as $1.16 per share. The market price of our common stock may continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. Our financial performance, government regulatory action, tax laws, interest rates, and market conditions in general could have a significant impact on the future market price of our common stock.

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ATNF.” Our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. The stock markets in general have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, inflation, war, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Due to the limited volume of our shares which trade, we believe that our stock prices (bid, ask and closing prices) may not be related to our actual value, and not reflect the actual value of our common stock. You should exercise caution before making an investment in us.

Stock markets in general and our stock price in particular have recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies and our company. For example, during 2022, the closing sales prices of our common stock ranged from a post-split adjusted high of $1,482.04 per share to a low of $23.56 per share, during fiscal 2023, the closing sales prices of our common stock ranged from a high of $100.70 per share to a low of $3.21 per share and during fiscal 2024 (through the date of this prospectus), the closing sales prices of our common stock ranged from a post-split adjusted high of $6.47 per share to a low of $1.18 per share. During this time, we do not believe that we have experienced any material changes in our financial condition or results of operations that would explain such price volatility or trading volume; however, we have sold equity which was dilutive to existing stockholders. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our securities. Additionally, these and other external factors have caused and may continue to cause the market price and demand for our common stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent our stockholders from readily selling their shares of our common stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our common stock.

Additionally, as a result of the illiquidity of our common stock, investors may not be interested in owning our common stock because of the inability to acquire or sell a substantial block of our common stock at one time. Such illiquidity could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, a shareholder may not be able to borrow funds using our common stock as collateral because lenders may be unwilling to accept the pledge of securities having such a limited market. An active trading market for our common stock may not develop or, if one develops, may not be sustained.

In the past, many companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.

The exercise of the outstanding options and warrants, and the sale of common stock upon exercise thereof, may adversely affect the trading price of our securities.

As of the date of this prospectus, we had 22,891 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, with a weighted average exercise price of $61.92 per share; (a) 15,132 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding public warrants exercisable at an exercise price of $4,370.00 per share, (b) 6,748 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain outstanding private placement warrants at an exercise price of $1,900.00 per share, (d) 6,579 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain outstanding private placement warrants at an exercise price of $2,850.00 per share, (e) 4,049 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $3.23 per share, (f) 3,000,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.68 per share, (g) 168 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants with an exercise price of $2,006.40 per share, and (h) 1,900,138 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants to purchase shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.50 per share. For the life of the options and warrants, the holders have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of our common stock without assuming the risk of ownership. The issuance of shares upon the exercise of outstanding securities will also dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

The availability of these shares for public resale, as well as any actual resales of these shares, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or conversion of other securities, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market price of our common stock. Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock (including shares issued in connection with an acquisition), or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

In addition, the common stock issuable upon exercise/conversion of outstanding convertible securities may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of our stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by holders of our outstanding convertible securities, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

This is a reasonable best efforts offering, with no minimum amount of securities required to be sold, and we may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby.

The placement agent has agreed to use its best efforts to solicit offers to purchase the units and pre-funded units in this offering. The placement agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of the securities. There is no required minimum number of securities that must be sold as a condition to completion of this offering. As there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, placement agent fees and proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth above. We may sell fewer than all of the securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell all of the units or pre-funded units offered in this offering. The success of this offering will impact our ability to use the proceeds to execute our business plans. We may have insufficient capital to implement our business plans and satisfy current obligations, potentially resulting in greater operating losses or dilution unless we are able to raise the required capital from alternative sources. There is no assurance that alternative capital, if needed, would be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

You will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the net tangible book value per share of the common stock you purchase. You may also experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

The price per unit, together with the number of shares of our common stock we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our common stock. Our historical pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024 was approximately $(2.6 million), or approximately $(1.34) per share of our common stock. After giving effect to the sale of 5,747,126 units to be sold in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per unit, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, our as-adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024 would have been approximately $6.5 million, or approximately $0.84 per share of our common stock. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $2.18 per share of our common stock to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in pro forma net tangible book value of approximately ($0.90) per share of our common stock to new investors, representing the difference between the public offering price and our pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2023, after giving effect to this offering, and the public offering price per unit. Furthermore, if outstanding options or warrants are exercised, you could experience further dilution.

In addition, we have a number of stock options and warrants and convertible securities outstanding, and, in order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may not be the same as the price per unit in this offering. In the event that the outstanding options or warrants are exercised or settled, convertible securities are converted, or that we make additional issuances of common stock or other convertible or exchangeable securities, you could experience additional dilution. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per unit paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders, including investors who purchase shares of common stock in this offering. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our common stock or securities convertible into common stock in future transactions, may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering. As a result, purchasers of the shares we sell, as well as our existing stockholders, will experience significant dilution if we sell at prices significantly below the price at which they invested. See the section entitled “Dilution” below for a more detailed illustration of the dilution you would incur if you participated in this offering.

Resales of our common stock in the public market during this offering by our stockholders may cause the market price of our common stock to fall.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock could occur at any time. The issuance of new shares of our common stock could result in resales of our common stock by our current stockholders concerned about the potential ownership dilution of their holdings. In turn, these resales could have the effect of depressing the market price for our common stock.

We will have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include operationalizing and developing our recently acquired Technology Gaming Platform and capital expenditures, as described in the section of this prospectus entitled “Use of Proceeds” on page 40 of this prospectus. We will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds in the category of general corporate purposes and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering.

The precise amount and timing of the application of these proceeds, if any, will depend upon a number of factors, such as the timing and progress of efforts to complete a strategic transaction, our research and development efforts, our funding requirements and the availability and costs of other funds. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot specify with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to us from this offering. Depending on the outcome of our efforts and other unforeseen events, our plans and priorities may change and we may apply the net proceeds of this offering in different manners than we currently anticipate.

The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, interest-bearing instruments. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders.

This offering may cause the trading price of our common stock to decrease.

The price per unit, together with the number of shares of common stock we propose to issue and ultimately will issue if this offering is completed, may result in an immediate decrease in the market price of our common stock. This decrease may continue after the completion of this offering.

We may not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the common warrants.

Each common warrant has an initial exercise price of $[*] per share (equal to 100% of the public offering price of each unit sold in this offering), subject to adjustment as described herein , and may also be exercised in certain circumstances by way of a cashless exercise, meaning that the holder may not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise, but instead would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of our common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant. Accordingly, we may not receive any additional funds, or any significant additional funds, upon the exercise of the warrants.

There is no public market for the pre-funded warrants and common warrants being offered in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the pre-funded warrants and common warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the pre-funded warrants and common warrants on any securities exchange or nationally recognized trading system. Without an active market, the liquidity of the pre-funded warrants and common warrants will be limited.

Except as otherwise set forth in the common warrants and pre-funded warrants, holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants offered hereby will have no rights as stockholders with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants until such holders exercise their common warrants and pre-funded warrants and acquire our common stock.

Except as otherwise set forth in the common warrants and pre-funded warrants, until holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants acquire shares of our common stock upon exercise thereof, such holders of the common warrants and the pre-funded warrants will have no rights with respect to the shares of our common stock underlying such warrants, such as voting rights. Upon exercise of the common warrants or the pre-funded warrants, as the case may be, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

If we do not maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, holders will be able to exercise such common warrants on a “cashless basis.”

If we do not maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants at the time that holders wish to exercise such warrants, they will be able to exercise them on a “cashless basis,” and under no circumstances would we be required to make any cash payments or net cash settle such warrants to the holders. As a result, the number of shares of common stock that holders will receive upon exercise of the common warrants will be fewer than it would have been had such holders exercised their common warrants for cash. Under the terms of the common warrants, we have agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to maintain a current and effective prospectus relating to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants until the expiration of such warrants. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so. If we are unable to do so, the potential “upside” of the holder’s investment in our company may be reduced.

The pre-funded warrants and the common warrants are speculative in nature.

The pre-funded warrants and common warrants offered hereby do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of common stock at a fixed price. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the pre-funded warrants may acquire the common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share and holders of the common warrants may acquire the common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants at an exercise price per share equal to the public offering price of shares of common stock in this offering. Moreover, following this offering, the market value of the pre-funded warrants and the common warrants is uncertain, and there can be no assurance that the market value of the pre-funded warrants or the common warrants will equal or exceed their public offering price.

Purchasers who purchase our securities in this offering pursuant to a securities purchase agreement may have rights not available to purchasers that purchase without the benefit of a securities purchase agreement.

In addition to rights and remedies available to all purchasers in this offering under federal securities and state law, the purchasers that enter into a securities purchase agreement will also be able to bring claims for breach of contract against us. The ability to pursue a claim for breach of contract provides those investors with the means to enforce the covenants uniquely available to them under the securities purchase agreement including timely delivery of shares and indemnification for breach of contract.

The common warrants may not have any value.

Each common warrant has an exercise price per share equal to the public offering price of shares of common stock in this offering and expires on the fifth anniversary of its original issuance date. In the event the market price per share of common stock does not exceed the exercise price of the common warrants during the period when the common warrants are exercisable, the common warrants may not have any value.

We may amend the terms of certain outstanding warrants in connection with this offering.

In connection with the offering pursuant to this prospectus, we may amend the terms of certain outstanding warrants to purchase up to 1,900,138 shares of our Common Stock which currently have an exercise price of $1.50 per share, to reduce the exercise price of such prior warrants to: (i) equal the exercise price of the Common Warrants sold in this offering; and (ii) extend the term during which the Prior Warrants could remain exercisable to the term of the Common Warrants sold in this offering. The reduction in the exercise price will reduce the amount of funds we receive upon exercise of such warrants, in the event such prior warrants are exercised for cash, and may result in further dilution to existing stockholders.

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes a liquidation preference.

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes a liquidation preference of $17.30 per share or $17,300,000 in aggregate, which is payable upon liquidation, before any distribution to our common stock shareholders. As a result, if we were to dissolve, liquidate or wind up our operations, the holders of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock would have the right to receive up to the first $17,300,000 in proceeds from any such transaction, and we do not currently have $17.3 million in total net assets. The payment of the liquidation preferences could result in common stock shareholders not receiving any consideration if we were to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Additionally, the existence of the liquidation preferences may reduce the value of our common stock, make it harder for us to sell shares of common stock in offerings, or prevent or delay a change of control. Because our Board of Directors is entitled to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without a vote of our shareholders, subject to Nasdaq rules and regulations, our shareholders will have no control over what designations and preferences our future preferred stock, if any, will have.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes anti-dilution protection through the date of Stockholder Approval.

The conversion rate of the 1,000,000 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, is currently 1.318 per share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or 1,318,000 shares of common stock in aggregate and will increase to [        ] per share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock or [             ] shares of common stock in aggregate following this offering (assuming no pre-funded warrants are sold in connection with this offering), which totals 40% of the Company’s post-issuance common stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), and continues to be adjustable through the date that stockholders of the Company approve the issuance of shares of common stock upon the conversion of such Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, if ever (“Stockholder Approval”). At Stockholder Approval, the conversion ratio is fixed, such that on the date that Stockholder Approval is received (the “Stockholder Approval Date”), the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into 40% of the Company’s post-issuance outstanding common stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock). As a result, the total shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Additionally, the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued an increased number of shares of common stock of the Company if the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company increase prior to Stockholder Approval, including in connection with the offering, and in the event the common warrants are exercised. As a result, if the Company issues any equity compensation, sells any additional shares in any other offerings, or otherwise issues any shares of common stock prior to the Stockholder Approval Date, the holder(s) of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will receive additional shares of common stock (compared to the number of shares of common stock due as of the date of this prospects), so that they will retain their 40% post-issuance ownership of the Company as of the Stockholder Approval Date. Such additional issuances will in turn cause significant dilution to the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the above, the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is 10 million shares of common stock, the total percentage of outstanding common stock which the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into will be fixed at 40% at the time of Stockholder Approval (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), and no conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock can occur prior to Stockholder Approval.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants will cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

Following Stockholder Approval, each holder of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may, at its option, convert its shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into a number of shares of common stock as equals 40% of the Company’s post-issuance common stock at the time of Stockholder Approval (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), divided by the 1,000,000 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders.

The availability of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for public resale, as well as any actual resales of these shares, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and/or upon exercise of outstanding warrants, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market price of our common stock. Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of warrants, or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

In addition, the common stock issuable upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of warrants may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of our stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

Additionally, the warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock which we granted effective September 30, 2024, which have an exercise price of $1.68 per share and a term of seven years, which aren’t exercisable until or unless stockholders approve the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise thereof is received, have cashless exercise rights, which means that such warrants can be exercised without paying us any cash and instead with the holder netting the value of the exercise price against the value of the shares issuable upon exercise thereof. Additionally, any shares of common stock issuable upon the cashless exercise of such warrants will likely be able to tack the holding period of such shares of common stock with the warrants.

The influx of any of these shares into the public market could potentially have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

There may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their shares. The market price of our common stock may continue to be volatile.

The market price of our common stock will likely continue to be highly volatile. Some of the factors that may materially affect the market price of our common stock are beyond our control, such as conditions or trends in the industry in which we operate or sales of our common stock. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable.

As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a mature issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. It is possible that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will not develop or be sustained, or that trading levels will not continue. These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our performance. In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility. This volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities of many companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Stockholders may be diluted significantly through our efforts to obtain financing and satisfy obligations through the issuance of additional shares of our common stock.

Wherever possible, our Board will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock or where shares are to be issued to our officers, directors and applicable consultants. Our Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, but subject to Nasdaq rules and regulations (which generally require stockholder approval for any transactions which would result in the issuance of more than 20% of our then outstanding shares of common stock or voting rights representing over 20% of our then outstanding shares of stock, subject to certain exceptions), to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In addition, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders, which may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of the Company because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.

Future sales of our common stock in the public market could cause our stock price to fall.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that these sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. As of December 23, 2024, we had 1,976,999 shares of common stock outstanding, all of which shares were, and continue to be, eligible for sale in the public market, subject in some cases to compliance with the requirements of Rule 144, including the volume limitations and manner of sale requirements. In addition, all of the shares offered under this prospectus will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration upon issuance.

In the past we have not been in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards and may not be in compliance with such standards in the future, and are currently subject to a one year mandatory panel monitor, and as a result our common stock and public warrants may be delisted from Nasdaq.

Our common stock and public warrants trade on Nasdaq under the symbols “ATNF” and “ATNFW,” respectively. Notwithstanding such listing, there can be no assurance any broker will be interested in trading our securities. Therefore, it may be difficult to sell our securities publicly. There is also no guarantee that we will be able to maintain our listings on Nasdaq for any period of time by perpetually satisfying Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements.

We have previously been out of compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements due to our failure to maintain a minimum bid price of at least $1.00 per share for our common stock, which failure was remedied in March 2024.

Also, on October 11, 2023, the Company received written notice from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the shareholder approval requirements set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), which require prior shareholder approval for transactions, other than public offerings, involving the issuance of 20% or more of the pre-transaction shares outstanding at less than the applicable Minimum Price (as defined in Listing Rule 5635(d)(1)(A)), which non-compliance we remedied in December 2023.

Additionally, on November 15, 2023, the Company received a letter from Nasdaq notifying the Company that it was not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Rule”) requires companies listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000. In the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company reported a stockholders’ deficit of ($149,327), which was below the minimum stockholders’ equity required for continued listing pursuant to the Equity Rule. Additionally, the Company did not meet the alternative Nasdaq continued listing standards under Nasdaq Listing Rules and did not meet the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement as of December 31, 2023, March 31, 2024 or June 30, 2024.

Nasdaq provided the Company until January 2, 2024 to submit to Nasdaq a plan to regain compliance. We submitted the plan to regain compliance in a timely manner, and on January 11, 2024, Nasdaq advised the Company that it has determined to grant the Company an extension to regain compliance with the Equity Rule, subject to certain requirements, including completing the transactions outlined in the plan of compliance which were intended to increase the Company’s stockholders’ equity to more than $2.5 million.

While the Company was able to undertake some of the transactions described in the compliance plan, it was unable to regain compliance with the Equity Rule prior to the end of the plan period (May 13, 2024). As a result, on May 14, 2024, the Company received a delist determination letter from the Listing Qualifications department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Staff”) advising the Company that the Staff had determined that the Company did not meet the terms of the extension. On May 17, 2024, the Company requested an appeal of the Staff’s delisting determination, and on May 20, 2024, the Staff advised the Company that the delisting action referenced in the Staff’s determination letter had been stayed, pending a final written decision by the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (“Panel”). On July 2, 2024, the Company received notice that the Panel had determined to grant the Company’s request to continue its listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market, subject to the Company meeting certain conditions, including filing on or before July 31, 2024, a public disclosure describing the transactions undertaken by the Company to achieve compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing rules and demonstrate long-term compliance with the Equity Rule and providing an indication of its equity following those transactions. On July 22, 2024, the Panel granted the Company’s request for additional time to achieve compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing rules and demonstrate long-term compliance with the Equity Rule. Specifically, the Hearings Panel subsequently extended that deadline to September 30, 2024, and further to October 15, 2024, to regain compliance with the Equity Rule and to allow the continued listing of the Company’s common stock and warrants on The Nasdaq Stock Market through such date, subject to the Company’s compliance with the Equity Rule on or prior to such date.

As a result of the acquisition of the Purchased Assets (discussed above), issuance of the 1,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Purchase Warrants as described below, on October 4, 2024, we received a letter from Nasdaq confirming that we had regained compliance with the Equity Rule. Nasdaq also advised the Company that in application of Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(B), the Company will be subject to a mandatory panel monitor for a period of one year from the date of such letter. If, within that one-year monitoring period, the Staff finds that the Company is no longer in compliance with the Equity Rule, then, notwithstanding Rule 5810(c)(2), the Company will not be permitted to provide Staff with a plan of compliance with respect to such deficiency and the Staff will not be permitted to grant additional time for the Company to regain compliance with respect to such deficiency, nor will the Company be afforded an applicable cure or compliance period pursuant to Rule 5810(c)(3). Instead, the Staff will issue a Delist Determination Letter and the Company will have an opportunity to request a new hearing with the initial Panel or a newly convened Hearings Panel if the initial Panel is unavailable. The Company will have the opportunity to respond/present to the Hearings Panel as provided by Listing Rule 5815(d)(4)(C) and the Company’s securities may at that time be delisted from Nasdaq.

If the Company’s common stock and public warrants are delisted, it could be more difficult to buy or sell the Company’s common stock and public warrants or to obtain accurate quotations, and the price of the Company’s common stock and public warrants could suffer a material decline. Delisting could also impair the Company’s ability to raise capital and/or trigger defaults and penalties under outstanding agreements or securities of the Company.

Separately, on May 14, 2024, the Staff provided us notice of our non-compliance with the audit committee requirements for continued listing on Nasdaq set forth in Listing Rule 5605(c)(2), which requires that listed companies maintain an audit committee of at least three independent directors. Nasdaq provided the Company a cure period in order to regain compliance, and we believe we regained compliance with this listing rule in December 2024.

Among the conditions required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq requires us to maintain at least $2.5 million in stockholders’ equity or $500,000 in net income over the prior two years or two of the prior three years. As of September 30, 2023, December 31, 2023, March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2024, our stockholders’ equity was below $2.5 million and we did not otherwise meet the net income requirements described above, and as such, we were not in compliance with Nasdaq’s continued listing standards relating to minimum stockholders’ equity until September 30, 2024.

Our failure to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements for the reasons above, or any other reason, may result in our securities being delisted from Nasdaq.

Additional conditions required for continued listing on Nasdaq include requiring that we have a majority of independent directors, a two-person compensation committee and a three-member audit committee (each consisting of all independent directors), which three-person audit committee requirement we have not met from time to time in the past. As a result, our common stock and public warrants may be delisted from Nasdaq.

We also have to continue to meet other objective and subjective listing requirements to continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market could make trading our common stock and public warrants more difficult for investors, potentially leading to declines in our share price and liquidity. Without a Nasdaq Capital Market listing, stockholders may have a difficult time getting a quote for the sale or purchase of our common stock and public warrants, the sale or purchase of our common stock and public warrants would likely be made more difficult, and the trading volume and liquidity of our common stock and public warrants could decline. Delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market could also result in negative publicity and could also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital. The absence of such a listing may adversely affect the acceptance of our common stock as currency or the value accorded by other parties. Further, if we are delisted, we would also incur additional costs under state blue sky laws in connection with any sales of our securities. These requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of our common stock and public warrants and the ability of our stockholders and warrant holders to sell our common stock and public warrants in the secondary market. If our common stock and public warrants are delisted by Nasdaq, our common stock and public warrants may be eligible to trade on an over-the-counter quotation system, such as the OTCQB Market or the OTC Pink market, where an investor may find it more difficult to sell our common stock and public warrants or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock and public warrants. In the event our common stock and public warrants are delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market, we may not be able to list our common stock on another national securities exchange or obtain quotation on an over-the counter quotation system.

Risks Relating to Our Need For Additional Funding

Our current cash balance is only expected to be sufficient to fund our planned business operations until approximately December 2025, if we do not raise funding in this offering. If additional capital is not available, we may not be able to pursue our planned business operations, may be forced to change our planned business operations, or may take other actions that could adversely impact our stockholders, including seeking bankruptcy protection.

We are a clinical stage biotechnology company that is transitioning into the iGaming industry which currently has no revenue. Thus, our business does not generate the cash necessary to finance our planned business operations. We will require significant additional capital to: (i) protect our intellectual property; (ii) attract and retain highly-qualified personnel; (iii) respond effectively to competitive pressures; and (iv) acquire complementary businesses or technologies.

Our future capital needs depend on many factors, including: (i) the scope, duration and expenditures associated with our research, development and commercialization efforts as they relate to iGaming; (ii) the outcome of potential partnering or licensing transactions, if any; (iii) competing technological developments with regards to our iGaming platform; and (iv) protecting and supporting our proprietary patent positions.

We will need to raise substantial additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or strategic alliances and licensing arrangements to finance our planned business operations. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. General market conditions, rising interest rates and inflation, as well as global conflicts such as the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and Israel and Hamas, may make it difficult for us to seek financing from the capital markets, and the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our stockholders. For example, if we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, further dilution to our stockholders will result, which may substantially dilute the value of their investment. Any equity financing may also have the effect of reducing the conversion or exercise price of our outstanding convertible or exercisable securities, which could result in the issuance (or potential issuance) of a significant number of additional shares of our common stock. In addition, as a condition to providing additional funds to us, future investors may demand, and may be granted, rights superior to those of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that could limit our flexibility to conduct future business activities and, in the event of insolvency, could be paid before holders of equity securities received any distribution of our assets. We may be required to relinquish rights to our technologies or product candidates, or grant licenses through alliance, joint venture or agreements on terms that are not favorable to us, in order to raise additional funds. Our current cash balance is only expected to be sufficient to fund our planned business operations until approximately December 2025, if we do not raise funding in this offering. If adequate funds are not available, we may have to delay, reduce or eliminate one or more of our planned activities with respect to our business, or terminate our operations, or may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. These actions would likely reduce the market price of our common stock.

We will need additional capital which may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, which raises questions about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has not generated any revenues and has incurred significant losses since inception. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $129,238,340 and a working capital deficit of $5,158,449, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a net loss of $1,894,683 and cash used in operating activities of $529,906. The Company expects to invest a significant amount of capital to commercialize its iGaming assets and fund research and development. On September 29, 2024, the Company acquired certain source code and intellectual property relating to an online blockchain casino and plans to build and launch a fully operational casino operation as part of its future operations. The Company expects to invest a significant amount of capital to fund the development and operation of this business. As a result, the Company expects that its operating expenses will increase significantly, and consequently will require significant revenues to become profitable. Even if the Company does become profitable, it may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. The Company cannot predict when, if ever, it will be profitable. As of December 17, 2024, we had cash on hand of approximately $2.0 million, which we expect will last us until December 2025, if we do not raise funding in this offering. Our Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. As we are not generating revenues, we need to raise a significant amount of capital in order to pay our debts and cover our operating costs. While we have raised funds in the past through debt and the sale of equity, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional needed capital or that such capital will be available under favorable terms.

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the absence of a long-standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. We may never achieve profitable operations or generate significant revenues.

We currently have a monthly cash requirement spend of approximately $200,000. We believe that in the aggregate, we will require significant additional capital funding to support and expand our iGaming assets, the research and development and marketing of our products, fund future clinical trials, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from products are fully-implemented and begin to offset our operating costs, if ever.

Since our inception, we have funded our operations with the proceeds from equity and debt financing. We have experienced liquidity issues due to, among other reasons, our limited ability to raise adequate capital on acceptable terms. We have historically relied upon the sale of equity and debt funding that is convertible into shares of our common stock to fund our operations and have devoted significant efforts to reduce that exposure. We anticipate that we will need to issue equity to fund our operations and fund our operating expenses for the foreseeable future. If we are unable to achieve operational profitability or we are not successful in securing other forms of financing, we will have to evaluate alternative actions to reduce our operating expenses and conserve cash.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. The Consolidated Financial Statements included herein also include a going concern footnote.

Additionally, wherever possible, the Board of Directors will attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations. In many instances, we believe that the non-cash consideration will consist of restricted shares of our common stock, preferred stock or warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. The Board of Directors has authority, without action or vote of the stockholders, but subject to Nasdaq rules and regulations (which generally require stockholder approval for any transactions which would result in the issuance of more than 20% of our then outstanding shares of common stock or voting rights representing over 20% of our then outstanding shares of stock, subject to certain exceptions), to issue all or part of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock, preferred stock or warrants to purchase such shares of common stock. In addition, we may attempt to raise capital by selling shares of our common stock, possibly at a discount to market in the future. These actions will result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing stockholders, may further dilute common stock book value, and that dilution may be material. Such issuances may also serve to enhance existing management’s ability to maintain control of us, because the shares may be issued to parties or entities committed to supporting existing management.

Risks Relating to our Ineffective Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have in the past, and may in the future, identify material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. If not remediated, our failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and a failure to meet our reporting and financial obligations, each of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the trading price of our securities.

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024. Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide assurance at a reasonable level that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions.

Management’s evaluation was based on the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

A material weakness is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a company with limited accounting resources, a significant amount of management’s time and attention has been and will be diverted from our business to ensure compliance with these regulatory requirements.

Our management plans to establish procedures to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing necessary enhancements or improvements. Management expects to complete an assessment of the design and operating effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2024. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management continues to take steps to develop and enhance its internal controls over financial reporting, and has implemented the following controls to remediate the above material weakness:

We expect to incur costs of approximately $25,000 to $50,000 in connection with such remediation efforts.

Management will consider the material weakness to be fully remediated once the controls have been operating effectively for sufficient contiguous reporting periods, and after Management has validated the effective operation of the controls through testing.

Maintaining effective disclosure controls and procedures and effective internal control over financial reporting are necessary for us to produce reliable financial statements and we are committed to remediating our material weaknesses in such controls as promptly as possible. However, there can be no assurance as to when these material weaknesses will be remediated or that additional material weaknesses will not arise in the future. Any failure to remediate the material weaknesses, or the development of new material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, could result in material misstatements in our financial statements and cause us to fail to meet our reporting and financial obligations on a timely and accurate basis. If our financial statements are not accurate, investors may not have a complete understanding of our operations or may lose confidence in our reported financial information. Likewise, if our financial statements are not filed on a timely basis as required by the SEC and Nasdaq, we could face severe consequences from those authorities. Any of these cases could result in a material adverse effect on our business, on our financial condition or have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock and warrants. Further, if we fail to remedy any future deficiencies or maintain the adequacy of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls, we could be subject to regulatory scrutiny, civil or criminal penalties or stockholder litigation against us or our management.

We can give no assurance that the measures we would take in the future will remediate any additional material weaknesses which could be identified, or restatements of our financial statements will not arise in the future due to a failure to implement and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting or circumvention of those controls.

Further, in the future, if we cannot conclude that we have effective internal control over our financial reporting, or if our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to provide an unqualified opinion regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting (to the extent we may be required in the future), investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could lead to a decline in our stock price. Failure to comply with reporting requirements could also subject us to sanctions and/or investigations by the SEC or Nasdaq, as applicable, or other regulatory authorities.

In addition, even if we would be successful in strengthening our controls and procedures, those controls and procedures may not be adequate to prevent or identify irregularities or facilitate the fair presentation of our financial statements or our periodic reports filed with the SEC. This may require us to restate prior financial statements.

Risks Relating to our Accounts Payable

Our accounts payable are significant, and we do not currently have sufficient funds to pay such accounts payable, a large portion of which are past due.

We do not currently have adequate cash on hand, and do not expect to generate revenues, sufficient to pay down our significant accounts payable balance, which is currently approximately $2.3 million. A large portion of our accounts payable balance represents amounts which are past due. While we are actively working with creditors to attempt to satisfy amounts owed in shares of common stock, the issuance of which may cause dilution to existing stockholders, there can be no assurance that such creditors will agree to accept equity in lieu of cash. Such creditors may in the future exercise remedies, including suing the Company for nonpayment or attempting to force the Company into receivership. Creditor litigation may be costly and resource intensive, which could deplete our already limited available cash and/or force us to raise additional funding, which may be dilutive to existing stockholders or seek bankruptcy protection. In the event of a bankruptcy proceeding or insolvency, or restructuring of our capital structure, holders of the Company’s common stock could suffer a total loss of their investment.

Risks Relating to our Planned Online Casino Operations

Our current cash balance is only expected to be sufficient to fund our planned business operations until approximately December 2025. If additional capital is not available, we may not be able to pursue our planned business operations, may be forced to change our planned business operations, or may take other actions that could adversely impact our stockholders, including seeking bankruptcy protection.

We are a clinical stage biotechnology company that is transitioning into the iGaming industry which currently has no revenue and has not generated any revenue for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2024, and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and may not generate significant revenue for the near term. Thus, our business does not generate the cash necessary to finance our planned business operations. We will require significant additional capital to: (i) protect our intellectual property; (ii) attract and retain highly-qualified personnel; (iii) respond effectively to competitive pressures; and (iv) acquire complementary businesses or technologies.

Our future capital needs depend on many factors, including: (i) the scope, duration and expenditures associated with our research, development and commercialization efforts as they relate to iGaming; (ii) the outcome of potential partnering or licensing transactions, if any; (iii) competing technological developments with regards to our iGaming platform; and (iv) protecting and supporting our proprietary patent positions.

We will need to raise substantial additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or strategic alliances and licensing arrangements to finance our planned business operations. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. General market conditions, rising interest rates and inflation, as well as global conflicts such as the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia, and Israel and Hamas, may make it difficult for us to seek financing from the capital markets, and the terms of any financing may adversely affect the holdings or the rights of our stockholders. For example, if we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, further dilution to our stockholders will result, which may substantially dilute the value of their investment. Any equity financing may also have the effect of reducing the conversion or exercise price of our outstanding convertible or exercisable securities, which could result in the issuance (or potential issuance) of a significant number of additional shares of our common stock. In addition, as a condition to providing additional funds to us, future investors may demand, and may be granted, rights superior to those of existing stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that could limit our flexibility to conduct future business activities and, in the event of insolvency, could be paid before holders of equity securities received any distribution of our assets. We may be required to relinquish rights to our technologies or product candidates, or grant licenses through alliance, joint venture or agreements on terms that are not favorable to us, in order to raise additional funds. Our current cash balance is only expected to be sufficient to fund our planned business operations until approximately December 2025. If adequate funds are not available, we may have to delay, reduce or eliminate one or more of our planned activities with respect to our business, or terminate our operations, or may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection. These actions would likely reduce the market price of our common stock.

We have no operating history in the gaming industry and have incurred significant operating losses since inception. We may never become profitable or, if achieved, be able to sustain profitability.

We have no operating history in the gaming industry upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that our gaming operations will prove successful, and we may never achieve profitable operations. We currently expect to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. Even if we do achieve profitability, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to sustain profitability. As a result of the acquisition of certain blockchain casino intellectual property, we plan to focus a portion of our attention on the online gaming industry, and we have limited experience in that industry. If we are unsuccessful in operating our business, it will have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The online gaming industry is highly competitive, and if the Company fails to compete effectively, it could experience price reductions, reduced margins or loss of revenues.

The online gaming industry is highly competitive. A number of companies offer products and services that are similar to the Company’s planned online casino. The majority of the Company’s current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources, greater name recognition, broader or more integrated product offerings, larger technical staffs and a larger installed customer base. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, develop superior products, and devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of online gaming operations than the Company can.

Because of the rapid growth of the gaming industry, and the relatively low capital barriers to entry in the software industry, the Company expects additional competition from other established and emerging companies. Additionally, the Company’s competitors could combine or merge to become more formidable competitors or may adapt more quickly than we can to new technologies, evolving industry trends and changing customer requirements.

Competition within the global entertainment and gaming industries is intense and the  future offerings of the Company may not be able to compete against other competing forms of entertainment such as television, movies and sporting events, as well as other entertainment and gaming options on the Internet. If the Company’s offerings are not popular, the Company’s business could be harmed.

The Company plans to begin operating in the global gaming industry. The users of the Company’s planned online casino offering will face a vast array of entertainment choices. Other forms of entertainment, such as television, movies, sporting events and in-person casinos, are more well established and may be perceived by users to offer greater variety, affordability, interactivity and enjoyment. The Company’s planned products and services will compete with these other forms of entertainment for the discretionary time and income of end users. If we are unable to sustain sufficient interest in the Company’s planned products, services and offerings in comparison to other forms of entertainment, including new forms of entertainment, the Company’s business model may not be viable.

The Company will face the risk of fraud, theft, and cheating.

The Company will face the risk that third-parties, employees or consultants may attempt or commit fraud or theft or cheat using the Company’s products. Such risks include backdoors, nefarious code and other efforts. Failure to discover such acts or schemes in a timely manner could result in losses in the Company’s operations and those of the Company’s future customers. Negative publicity related to such acts or schemes could have an adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, potentially causing a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

We will be reliant on third-party gaming content for our games.

We expect to be reliant on third-parties for our gaming content and to have no control over the providers of our content. Our business could be adversely affected if our access to games is limited or delayed.

We expect that in the future our access to gaming content will be controlled by one or a small number of entities, who, if they work together, could materially limit our access to games and other content and available providers may not choose to license games to us. Our business may be adversely affected if our access to games is limited or delayed because of deterioration in our relationships with one or more of these providers or if they choose not to license to us for any other reason.

Even if we are able to secure rights to gaming content from providers or creators, external groups may object and may exert pressure on third parties to discontinue licensing rights to us, hold back content from us, or increase content fees. Content providers also may attempt to take advantage of their market power to demand onerous financial terms from us. If any of these content providers were to not enter into contracts with us, or renew contracts at their expiration, fail to meet their contractual obligations, or cease operations for any reason, and if no suitable alternative providers were available, we could be unable to operate our planned gaming platform. Our inability to retain such third-party providers or find suitable alternate providers in a timely manner could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could prevent us from generating revenues, reduce our future revenue, harm our business reputation, and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The cost of gaming content may be material and may be greater than our revenues, resulting in future net losses.

To the extent that we are unable to license a large amount of content or the content of certain popular games, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially harmed.

The Company will rely on third party cloud services and such providers or services may encounter technical problems and service interruptions.

The Company expects to host its future services on a combination of proprietary and cloud servers. Such servers have in the past and may in the future experience slower response times or interruptions as a result of increased traffic or other reasons. The Company will not have control over the operations of the facilities or infrastructure of the third-party service providers that they use. Such third parties’ facilities are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, cybersecurity attacks, terrorist attacks, power outages and similar events or acts of misconduct. We expect that the continuing and uninterrupted performance of the Company’s platform will be critical to our success. The Company may experience, interruptions, delays and outages in service and availability from these third-party service providers from time to time due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, human or software errors, website hosting disruptions and capacity constraints. In addition, any changes in these third parties’ service levels may adversely affect our ability to meet the requirements of the Company’s users. Since our platform’s continuing and uninterrupted performance is expected to be critical to our success, sustained or repeated system failures would reduce the attractiveness of our offerings. It may become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve our performance, especially during peak usage times, as the Company expands, and the usage of our offerings increases. Any negative publicity arising from these disruptions could harm our reputation and brand and may adversely affect the usage of our offerings. Any of the above circumstances or events may harm our reputation, reduce the availability or usage of our platform, lead to a significant loss of revenue, increase our costs, and impair our ability to attract new customers, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Malfunctions of third-party communications infrastructure, hardware and software may expose the Company to a variety of risks it cannot control.

The business of the Company is expected to depend upon the capacity, reliability and security of the infrastructure owned by third parties over which the Company’s offerings are deployed. The Company has no control over the operation, quality, or maintenance of a significant portion of that infrastructure or whether or not those third parties will upgrade or improve their equipment. The Company instead will depend on these companies to maintain the operational integrity of their connections. If one or more of these companies is unable or unwilling to supply or expand their levels of service in the future, the operations of the Company could be adversely impacted. Also, to the extent the number of users of networks utilizing the Company’s future products and services suddenly increases, the technology platform and secure hosting services which will be required to accommodate a higher volume of traffic may result in slower response times or service interruptions. System interruptions or increases in response time could result in a loss of potential or existing users and, if sustained or repeated, could reduce the appeal of the networks to users. In addition, users depend on real-time communications; outages caused by increased traffic could result in delays and system failures. These types of occurrences could cause users to perceive that the products and services of the Company do not function properly and could therefore adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract and retain licensees, strategic partners, and customers.

The Company’s planned online casino is part of a new and evolving industry, which presents significant uncertainty and business risks.

The gaming platforms, systems and gaming content industries are relatively new and continue to evolve. Whether these industries grow and whether their business will ultimately succeed, will be affected by, among other things, mobile platforms, legal and regulatory developments (such as passing new laws or regulations or extending existing laws or regulations to online gaming and related activities), taxation of gaming activities, data and information privacy and payment processing laws and regulations, and other factors that are unable to be predicted and which are beyond the control of the Company.

Given the dynamic evolution of these industries, it can be difficult to plan strategically, including as it relates to product launches in new or existing jurisdictions which may be delayed or denied, and it is possible that competitors will be more successful than the Company is at adapting to change and pursuing business opportunities. Additionally, as the online gaming industry advances, including with respect to regulation in new and existing jurisdictions, the Company may become subject to additional compliance-related costs, including regulatory infractions, licensing, and taxes. If our product offerings do not obtain popularity or maintain popularity, or if we fail to grow in a manner that meets our expectations, or if we cannot offer product offerings in particular jurisdictions that may be material to our business, then our results of operations and financial condition could be harmed.

Additionally, possible future changes in governmental regulations pose material risks to the Company. These changes may include amendments to existing rules or the introduction of new ones, shifts in regulatory focus or policy, or changes in the enforcement or interpretation of current rules and policies. These could lead to increased compliance costs, restrictions or prohibitions on current operations, or required alterations to the way the Company’s then services are offered or marketed, any of which may result in a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of the Company.

Failure to comply with regulatory requirements in a particular jurisdiction, or the failure to successfully obtain a license or permit applied for in a particular jurisdiction, could impact the ability of the Company to comply with licensing and regulatory requirements in other jurisdictions, or could cause the rejection of license applications or cancellation of existing licenses in other jurisdictions.

Compliance with the various regulations applicable to online gaming is costly and time-consuming. Regulatory authorities at the federal, state and local levels (both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions) have broad powers with respect to the regulation and licensing of real money online gaming operations and may revoke, suspend, condition or limit the licenses of the Company, impose substantial fines on us, and take other actions, any one of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. We do not currently hold any licenses and will need to obtain licenses in the future to operate our planned online blockchain casino. Such licenses may not be available in the timeframe we expect, may be more costly, or may require us to undertake various resource intensive actions to obtain. These laws and regulations are dynamic and subject to potentially differing interpretations, and various legislative and regulatory bodies may expand current laws or regulations or enact new laws and regulations regarding these matters. The Company strives to comply with all applicable laws and regulations relating to its business. It is possible, however, that these requirements may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules. Non-compliance with any such law or regulations could expose the Company to claims, proceedings, litigation and investigations by private parties and regulatory authorities, as well as substantial fines and negative publicity, each of which may materially and adversely affect the business of the Company.

The future gaming licenses of the Company could be revoked, suspended or conditioned at any time. The loss of a license in one jurisdiction could trigger the loss of a license or affect our eligibility for such a license in another jurisdiction, and any of such losses, or potential for such loss, could cause the Company to cease offering some or all of its offerings in the impacted jurisdictions. The Company may be unable to obtain or maintain all necessary registrations, licenses, permits or approvals, and could incur fines or experience delays related to the licensing process, which could adversely affect its operations. The delay or failure to obtain or maintain licenses by the Company in any jurisdiction may prevent it from distributing its offerings, increasing its customer base and/or generating revenues. The Company may not be able to obtain and maintain the licenses and related approvals necessary to conduct its operations. Any failure by the Company or its customers to maintain or renew existing licenses, registrations, permits or approvals could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the Company.

The product offerings of the Company must be approved in most regulated jurisdictions in which they are offered; this process cannot be assured or guaranteed.

If the Company fails to obtain necessary gaming licenses in a given jurisdiction, we would likely be prohibited from distributing and providing our product offerings in that particular jurisdiction. If we fail to seek, do not receive, or receive a suspension or revocation of a license in a particular jurisdiction for our product offerings (including any related technology and software) then we cannot offer the same in that jurisdiction and our gaming licenses in other jurisdictions may be impacted. Furthermore, some jurisdictions require license holders to obtain government approval before engaging in some transactions. We may not be able to obtain all necessary licenses in a timely manner, or at all. Delays in regulatory approvals or failure to obtain such approvals may also serve as a barrier to entry to the market for our product offerings. If the Company is unable to overcome the barriers to entry, it will materially affect our results of operations and future prospects.

To the extent new online gaming jurisdictions are established or expanded, the Company cannot guarantee it will be successful in penetrating such new jurisdictions or expanding its business or customer base in line with the growth of existing jurisdictions. As the Company directly or indirectly enters into new markets, it may encounter legal, regulatory and political challenges that are difficult or impossible to foresee and which could result in an unforeseen adverse impact on planned revenues or costs associated with the new market opportunity. If the Company is unable to effectively develop and operate directly or indirectly within these new markets or if its competitors are able to successfully penetrate geographic markets that it cannot access or where it faces other restrictions, then the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition could be impaired. The failure of the Company to obtain or maintain the necessary regulatory approvals in jurisdictions, whether individually or collectively, would have a material adverse effect on its business.

Legislative and regulatory changes could negatively affect the business of the Company and the business of its customers.

Legislative and regulatory changes may affect demand for or place limitations on the Company’s future operations. Such changes could affect the Company in a variety of ways. Legislation or regulation may introduce limitations on their products or opportunities for the use of our products and could foster competitive products. Our business will likely also suffer if our products become obsolete due to changes in laws or the regulatory framework. Moreover, legislation to prohibit, limit or add burdens to our business may be introduced in the future in jurisdictions where gaming has been legalized. In addition, from time to time, legislators and special interest groups have proposed legislation that would expand, restrict or prevent gaming operations or which may otherwise adversely impact our operations in the jurisdictions in which we then operate and will operate in the future.

Legislative or regulatory changes negatively impacting the gaming industry as a whole could also decrease the demand for our future products. Opposition to gaming could result in restrictions or even prohibitions of gaming operations in any jurisdiction or could result in increased taxes on gaming revenues. Tax matters, including changes in state, federal or other tax legislation or assessments by tax authorities could have a negative impact on our business. A reduction in growth of the gaming industry or in the number of gaming jurisdictions or delays in the opening of new or expanded casinos could reduce demand for our products. Changes in current or future laws or regulations or future judicial intervention in any particular jurisdiction may have a material adverse effect on our existing and proposed foreign and domestic operations. Any such adverse change in the legislative or regulatory environment could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

The gaming industry is highly regulated, and the Company must adhere to various regulations and maintain applicable licenses to operate. Failure to abide by regulations or maintain applicable licenses could be disruptive to our business and could adversely affect our operations.

The Company and its planned products are, and will be, subject to extensive regulation under federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations of the jurisdictions in which we do business and our planned products are used. Such entities currently block direct access to wagering on websites from jurisdictions in which they do not have a license to operate through IP address filtering. Individuals are required to enter their age upon gaining access to their platforms and any misrepresentation of such users age will result in the forfeiting of his or her deposit and any withdrawals from such users account requires proof of government issued identification. In addition, payment service providers use their own identify and internet service provider (ISP) verification software. Despite all such measures, it is conceivable that a user, underage, or otherwise could devise a way to evade the Company’s blocking measures and access its website from the United States or any other foreign jurisdiction in which the Company is not then permitted to operate.

Violations of laws in one jurisdiction could result in disciplinary action in other jurisdictions. Licenses, approvals or findings of suitability may be revoked, suspended or conditioned. In sum, the Company may not be able to obtain or maintain all necessary registrations, licenses, permits or approvals. The licensing process may result in delays or adversely affect our operations and our ability to maintain key personnel, and our efforts to comply with any new licensing regulations will increase our costs.

A reduction in discretionary consumer spending, from an economic downturn or disruption of financial markets or other factors, could negatively impact the financial performance of the Company as it develops its iGaming business.

Gaming and other leisure activities that the Company plans to offer represent discretionary expenditures and players’ participation in those activities may decline if discretionary consumer spending declines, including during economic downturns, when consumers generally earn less disposable income. Changes in discretionary consumer spending or consumer preferences are driven by factors beyond the Company’s control, such as:

During periods of economic contraction, the Company may not be able to generate expected or any revenues, while most of the Company’s costs remain fixed and some costs even increase, resulting in decreased earnings.

The Company will face cyber security risks that could result in damage to the Company’s reputation and/or subject them to fines, payment of damages, lawsuits and restrictions on the Company’s use of data.

The information systems and data of the Company, including those the Company maintains with the Company’s third-party service providers, may be subject to cyber security breaches in the future. Computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate the Company’s network security and misappropriate, copy or pirate the Company’s confidential information or that of third parties, create system disruptions or cause interruptions or shutdowns of the Company’s internal systems and services. The Company’s websites may become subject to denial-of-service attacks, where a website is bombarded with information requests eventually causing the website to overload, resulting in a delay or disruption of service. Computer programmers and hackers also may be able to develop and deploy viruses, worms and other malicious software programs that attack the Company’s products or otherwise exploit any security vulnerabilities of the Company’s products. Also, there is a growing trend of advanced persistent threats being launched by organized and coordinated groups against corporate networks to breach security for malicious purposes.

The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper, or illegal access to the Company’s systems, the Company’s data or customers’ data, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving and have become increasingly complex and sophisticated, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched. Although the Company has developed, and plans to develop, systems and processes designed to protect the Company’s data and customer data and to prevent data loss and other security breaches and expects to continue to expend significant resources to bolster these protections, there can be no assurance that these security measures will provide absolute security.

Disruptions in the availability of their computer systems, through cyber-attacks or otherwise, could damage our computer or telecommunications systems, impact our ability to service our customers, adversely affect our operations and results of operations, and have an adverse effect on our reputation. The costs to eliminate or alleviate security problems, bugs, viruses, worms, malicious software programs and security vulnerabilities could be significant, and the efforts to address these problems could result in interruptions, delays, cessation of service and loss of future customers and may impede our sales, distribution and other critical functions. We may also be subject to regulatory penalties and litigation by customers and other parties whose information has been compromised, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Risks Relating to our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

Our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes a liquidation preference.

Each of our 1,000,000 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes a liquidation preference of $17.30 per share or $17,300,000 in aggregate, which is payable upon liquidation, before any distribution to our common stock shareholders. As a result, if we were to dissolve, liquidate or wind up our operations, the holders of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock would have the right to receive up to the first $17,300,000 in proceeds from any such transaction, and we do not currently have $17.3 million in total net assets. The payment of the liquidation preferences could result in common stock shareholders not receiving any consideration if we were to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Additionally, the existence of the liquidation preferences may reduce the value of our common stock, make it harder for us to sell shares of common stock in offerings, or prevent or delay a change of control. Because our Board of Directors is entitled to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without a vote of our shareholders, subject to Nasdaq rules and regulations, our shareholders will have no control over what designations and preferences our future preferred stock, if any, will have.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock includes anti-dilution protection through the date of Stockholder Approval.

The conversion rate of the 1,000,000 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, is currently 1.318 per share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or 1,318,000 shares of common stock, which totals 40% of the Company’s post-issuance common stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), and continues to be adjustable through the date that stockholders of the Company approve the issuance of shares of common stock upon the conversion of such Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, if ever (“Stockholder Approval”). At Stockholder Approval, the conversion ratio is fixed, such that on the date that Stockholder Approval is received (the “Stockholder Approval Date”), the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into 40% of the Company’s post-issuance outstanding common stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock). As a result, the total shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. Additionally, the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued an increased number of shares of common stock of the Company if the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company increase prior to Stockholder Approval, including in connection with the offering, and in the event the common warrants are exercised. As a result, if the Company issues any equity compensation, sells any additional shares in any other offerings, or otherwise issues any shares of common stock prior to the Stockholder Approval Date, the holder(s) of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will receive additional shares of common stock (compared to the number of shares of common stock due as of the date of this prospects), so that they will retain their 40% post-issuance ownership of the Company as of the Stockholder Approval Date. Such additional issuances will in turn cause significant dilution to the stockholders of the Company. Notwithstanding the above, the maximum number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is 10 million shares of common stock, the total percentage of outstanding common stock which the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into will be fixed at 40% at the time of Stockholder Approval (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), and no conversion of the Convertible Preferred Stock can occur prior to Stockholder Approval.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of certain outstanding warrants will cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

Following Stockholder Approval, each holder of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock may, at its option, convert its shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock into a number of shares of common stock as equals 40% of the Company’s post-issuance common stock at the time of Stockholder Approval (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), divided by the 1,000,000 outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders.

The availability of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for public resale, as well as any actual resales of these shares, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and/or upon exercise of outstanding warrants, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market price of our common stock. Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of warrants, or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

In addition, the common stock issuable upon the conversion of our Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and upon exercise of warrants may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of our stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

Additionally, the warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock which we granted effective September 30, 2024, which have an exercise price of $1.68 per share and a term of seven years, which aren’t exercisable until or unless stockholders approve the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise thereof is received, have cashless exercise rights, which means that such warrants can be exercised without paying us any cash and instead with the holder netting the value of the exercise price against the value of the shares issuable upon exercise thereof. Additionally, any shares of common stock issuable upon the cashless exercise of such warrants will likely be able to tack the holding period of such shares of common stock with the warrants.

The influx of any of these shares into the public market could potentially have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

Use of Proceeds

We estimate the net proceeds to us from this offering, based on the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, will be approximately $9.1 million, assuming the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, and after deducting the placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable to us.

However, because this is a best efforts offering and there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to the closing of this offering, the actual offering amount, the placement agent fees and net proceeds to us are not presently determinable and may be substantially less than the maximum amounts set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, and we may not sell any or all of the securities we are offering. As a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds. We may not sell all or any of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus; and, as a result, we may receive significantly less in net proceeds in this offering.

The following table presents our estimated net proceeds if 100%, 75%, 50% or 25% of the securities in this offering are sold.

We do not expect any material changes to the use of proceeds discussed above if all the securities registered herein are not sold, provided that any increase or decrease in net proceeds compared to the totals above are expected to increase/decrease working capital proportionately.

The common warrants issued in this offering will be exercisable commencing immediately; however, in the event the common warrants are not exercised, we will not receive any proceeds in connection with the exercise of the common warrants.

If all of the common warrants issued in this offering were to be exercised in cash at an assumed exercise price of $1.74 per share of common stock (assuming an exercise price equal to the reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, which was $1.74 per share), we would receive additional proceeds of approximately $15 million. We cannot predict when or if these common warrants will be exercised. It is possible that these common warrants may expire and may never be exercised. Additionally, the common warrants contain a cashless exercise provision that permit exercise of common warrants on a cashless basis at any time where there is no effective registration statement under the Securities Act, covering the issuance of the underlying shares.

We have based the estimates in the above table on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect. The net proceeds from this offering are not expected to be sufficient to fund advancement of any of our drug candidates through regulatory approval. We will need to raise substantial additional funds to complete development and commercialization of our drug candidates which development or commercialization may not be successful.

We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, which may include operationalizing and developing our recently acquired Technology Gaming Platform and capital expenditures. We may need substantial additional capital in the future, which could cause dilution to our existing stockholders, or restrict our operations, and if additional capital is not available, we may have to delay, reduce or cease operations. See “Risk Factors.”

Our expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business condition. The amounts and timing of our actual use of net proceeds will vary depending on numerous factors, including our ability to obtain additional financing, the relative success and cost of clinical and regulatory development programs and the amount and timing of product revenue, if any. In addition, we might decide to postpone or not pursue certain activities if, among other factors, the net proceeds from this offering and our other sources of cash are less than expected. As a result, management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment regarding the application of the net proceeds. Pending the uses described above, we intend to invest the net proceeds in interest-bearing investment-grade securities or deposits.

Each $0.25 increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, would increase or decrease, as applicable, the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $1.3 million, assuming the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, each increase or decrease of 500,000 in the number of shares of common stock offered by us would increase or decrease, as applicable, the net proceeds to us from this offering by approximately $0.8 million, assuming the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We do not expect that a change in the public offering price or the number of shares by these amounts would have a material effect on our uses of the proceeds from this offering, although it may accelerate the time at which we will need to seek additional capital.

Capitalization

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of September 30, 2024 on:

You should read this table in conjunction with the section of this prospectus entitled “Use of Proceeds” and our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto incorporated by reference into this prospectus.

A $0.25 increase or decrease in the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would increase or decrease each of our pro forma as-adjusted cash, total stockholders’ equity and total capitalization by approximately $1.3 million, assuming the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, each increase or decrease of 500,000 in the number of shares of common stock offered by us, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would increase or decrease each of our as-adjusted cash, total stockholders’ equity and total capitalization by approximately $0.8 million, assuming the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

The above discussion and table are based on 1,979,999 shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2024 on a pro forma basis. The number of pro forma shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024 excludes, as of such date:

Except as otherwise indicated, all information in this prospectus assumes no exercise or forfeiture of the outstanding options or warrants after September 30, 2024, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any common warrants but not the pre-funded warrants, which are assumed will be exercised for purposes of the above dilution calculation.

Dilution 

If you purchase our common stock in this offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering. We calculate net tangible book value per share by dividing our net tangible assets (tangible assets less total liabilities) by the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2024, as adjusted as discussed below.

Our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024 was ($5.5 million), or approximately ($5.37) per share and our pro forma net tangible book value, after taking into account the Warrant Inducement, was ($2.6 million), or ($1.34) per share of common stock.

After giving effect to the shares of our common stock to be sold in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, assuming the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, our pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024, would have been approximately $6.5 million, or approximately $0.84 per share of our common stock. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of $2.18 per share of our common stock to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of approximately ($0.90) per share of our common stock to new investors. The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

The dilution information discussed above is illustrative only and may change based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering. Each $0.25 increase in the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, assuming no change in the number of shares sold, no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would increase our pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering by $0.17 per share and increase the dilution to new investors purchasing shares in this offering by $0.08 per share and each $0.25 decrease in the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, assuming no change in the number of shares sold, no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would decrease our pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering by $0.17 per share and decrease the dilution to new investors purchasing shares in this offering by $0.08 per share, in each case assuming the number of shares of common stock offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. Similarly, an increase of 500,000 in the number of shares of common stock offered by us, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would increase the pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value after this offering by $0.05 per share and decrease the dilution per share to new investors participating in this offering by $0.05 per share, and a decrease of 500,000 shares of common stock offered by us, assuming no sale of any pre-funded warrants and no exercise of the common warrants issued in connection with this offering, would decrease the pro forma as-adjusted net tangible book value by $0.05 per share, and increase the dilution per share to new investors in this offering by $0.05 per share, in each case assuming the assumed public offering price of $1.74 per share, which is the last reported sales price of our common stock on Nasdaq on December 18, 2024, remains the same, and after deducting underwriting fees and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

If we only sell 75%, 50% or 25% of the maximum offering amount, our as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering would be approximately $6.8 million, $4.5 million or $2.2 million, respectively, and the immediate dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors purchasing securities in this offering would be approximately $1.08, $1.36 or $1.88, respectively, assuming no common warrants or pre-funded warrants are exercised, and after deducting placement agent fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

The above discussion and table are based on 1,976,999 shares of our common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2024 on a pro forma basis. The number of shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024 excludes, as of such date:

Except as otherwise indicated, all information in this prospectus assumes no exercise or forfeiture of the outstanding options or warrants after September 30, 2024, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any common warrants but not the pre-funded warrants, which are assumed will be exercised for purposes of the above dilution calculation.

Dividend Policy

We have never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings for use in the operation of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

Plan of Distribution

We are offering on a best efforts basis up to 5,747,126 units or pre-funded units, based on an assumed public offering price of $1.74 per unit or $1.7399 per pre-funded unit., which represents the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market, LLC on December 18, 2024, for gross proceeds of up to approximately $10,000,000 before deduction of placement agent fees and offering expenses. There is no minimum amount of proceeds that is a condition to closing of this offering. The actual amount of gross proceeds, if any, in this offering could vary substantially from the gross proceeds from the sale of the maximum amount of securities being offered in this prospectus.

Pursuant to a placement agency agreement, dated as of [*], 2024, we have engaged Maxim Group LLC to act as our exclusive placement agent to solicit offers to purchase the securities offered by this prospectus. The placement agent is not purchasing or selling any securities, nor is it required to arrange for the purchase and sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities, other than to use its “best efforts” to arrange for the sale of the securities by us. Therefore, we may not sell the entire amount of securities being offered. Investors purchasing securities offered hereby will have the option to execute a securities purchase agreement with us. In addition to the rights and remedies available to all investors in this offering under federal and state securities laws, the investors which enter into a securities purchase agreement will also be able to bring claims of breach of contract against us. Investors who do not enter into a securities purchase agreement shall rely solely on this prospectus in connection with the purchase of our securities in this offering. The placement agent may engage one or more subagents or selected dealers in connection with this offering.

The placement agency agreement provides that the placement agent’s obligations are subject to conditions contained in the placement agency agreement.

The units will be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. There is no minimum number of units to be sold or minimum aggregate offering proceeds for this offering to close.

We will deliver the securities being issued to the investors upon receipt of investor funds for the purchase of the securities offered pursuant to this prospectus. We expect to deliver the securities being offered pursuant to this prospectus on or about [*], 2024.

Placement Agent Fees, Commissions and Expenses

Upon the closing of this offering, we will pay the placement agent a cash transaction fee equal to 7% of the aggregate gross cash proceeds to us from the sale of the securities in the offering. In addition, we will reimburse the placement agent for certain of its out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this offering, including the placement agent’s legal fees, and actual travel and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, in an amount not to exceed $75,000. If this offering is not completed, we have agreed to reimburse the placement agent for its actual expenses in an amount not to exceed $25,000. We will pay an advance in the amount of $10,000 to the placement agent, which will be applied against the placement agent’s accountable out-of-pocket expenses and will be reimbursed to us to the extent not incurred.

The following table shows the public offering price, placement agent fees and proceeds, before expenses, to us, assuming the sale of all units in this offering and no sale of any pre-funded units in this offering.

We estimate that the total expenses of the offering, including registration and filing fees, printing fees and legal and accounting expenses, but excluding the placement commissions, will be approximately $160,000, all of which are payable by us. This figure includes, among other things, the placement agent’s expenses (including the legal fees, costs and expenses for the placement agent’s legal counsel) that we have agreed to reimburse.

Lock-Up Agreements

We and each of our officers and directors shall enter into customary “lock-up” agreements in favor of the placement agent pursuant to which such persons and entities shall agree, for a period of ninety (90) days after the closing of this offering, that they shall neither offer, issue, sell, contract to sell, encumber, grant any option for the sale of or otherwise dispose of any of our securities without the placement agent’s prior written consent, including the issuance of shares of common stock upon the exercise of currently outstanding options.

The placement agent may in its sole discretion and at any time without notice release some or all of the shares subject to lock-up agreements prior to the expiration of the lock-up period. When determining whether or not to release shares from the lock-up agreements, the placement agent will consider, among other factors, the security holder’s reasons for requesting the release, the number of shares for which the release is being requested and market conditions at the time.

Indemnification

We have agreed to indemnify the placement agent against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the placement agent may be required to make for these liabilities.

Regulation M

The placement agent may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by it and any profit realized on the resale of the securities sold by it while acting as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. As an underwriter, the placement agent would be required to comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including, without limitation, Rule 10b-5 and Regulation M under the Exchange Act. These rules and regulations may limit the timing of purchases and sales of our securities by the placement agent acting as principal. Under these rules and regulations, the placement agent (i) may not engage in any stabilization activity in connection with our securities and (ii) may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities, other than as permitted under the Exchange Act, until it has completed its participation in the distribution.

Determination of Offering Price and Warrant Exercise Price

The actual offering price of the units and pre-funded units we are offering, and the exercise price of the common warrants included in the units and pre-funded units that we are offering, were negotiated between us, the placement agent and the investors in the offering based on the trading of our shares of common stock prior to the offering, among other things. Other factors considered in determining the public offering price of the securities we are offering, as well as the exercise price of the common warrants that we are offering, include our history and prospects, the stage of development of our business, our business plans for the future and the extent to which they have been implemented, an assessment of our management, the general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering and such other factors as were deemed relevant.

If the placement agent or its affiliates have a lending relationship with us, they routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. The placement agent and its affiliates may hedge such exposure by entering into transactions that consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities or the securities of our affiliates, including potentially the securities offered hereby.

Description of Capital Stock

Authorized Capital Stock

The following summary of the material terms of our capital stock is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities. We urge you to read our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended in its entirety, for a complete description of the rights and preferences of our securities.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have 100,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of which 1,000,000 shares have been designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (of which none are outstanding), of which one share of preferred stock has been designated as a Class C Special Voting Share, of which none are outstanding, and one share of preferred stock has been designated as a Class K Special Voting Share, of which none are outstanding, and of which 1,000,000 shares have been designated as Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, of which 1,000,000 shares are outstanding.

As the date of this prospectus, there were 1,976,999 shares of common stock outstanding held by 122 holders of record, and 1,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock issued or outstanding, held by one holder of record.

Common Stock

Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock possess all voting power for the election of our directors and all other matters requiring stockholder action and will at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by stockholders and do not have the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors.

Holders of common stock will be entitled to receive dividends and other distributions, if any, in amounts declared from time to time by our Board of Directors in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor and shall share equally on a per share basis in these dividends and distributions.

In the event of our voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, distribution of assets or winding-up, the holders of the common stock will be entitled to receive an equal amount per share of all of our assets of whatever kind available for distribution to stockholders, after the rights of the holders of the preferred stock, if any, have been satisfied.

Our stockholders have no preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.

Our Board of Directors is divided into two classes, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class generally serving a two-year term.

Preferred Stock

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our Board of Directors will be authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. Our Board of Directors will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our Board of Directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of the Company or the removal of existing management.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

The below is a summary of the rights and preferences of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock:

Voting Rights. Until such time, if ever, as the stockholders of the Company have approved the issuance of shares of common stock upon the conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series B Stockholder Approval”), which has not occurred to date, the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock only has rights to vote on amendments to the Series B Designation (which are subject to the approval of a simple majority of the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock), and the Protective Provisions, discussed below.

The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock require the consent of the holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to (a) increase or decrease (other than by redemption or conversion) the total number of authorized shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company; (b) adopt or authorize any new designation of any Preferred Stock or amend the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company in a manner which (i) provides any holder of common stock or preferred stock any rights upon a liquidation of the Company which are prior and superior to those of the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; or (ii) adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; (c) effect an exchange, or create a right of exchange, cancel, or create a right to cancel, of all or any part of the shares of another class of shares into shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock; (d) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock so as to affect adversely the shares of such series; and (e) issue any shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, other than the 1,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock currently outstanding (collectively, the “Protective Provisions”).

After Series B Stockholder Approval, in addition to the above voting rights, each holder of outstanding shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall be entitled to cast the number of votes in connection with the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shares held by such holder equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible as of the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote on such matter. Fractional votes shall not, however, be permitted and any fractional voting rights available on an as-converted to common stock basis (after aggregating all fractional shares into which shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held by each holder could be converted) shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share. Except as provided by law or by the other provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or the Series B Designation, holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of common stock as a single class and there shall be no series voting.

Dividend Rights. None, except that if the Company declares a dividend or makes a distribution of cash (or any other distribution treated as a dividend under Section 301 of the Internal Revenue Code) on its common stock, each holder of Shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution in an amount equal to the largest number of whole shares of common stock into which all shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held of record by such holder are convertible as of the record date for such dividend or distribution or, if there is no specified record date, as of the date of such dividend or distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, holders shall have no right of participation in connection with dividends or distributions made to the common stock stockholders consisting solely of shares of common stock.

Liquidation Preference. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary (each a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of the Company to the holders of the common stock or securities junior to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (other than the common stock) by reason of their ownership of such stock, but after any required distribution to any holders of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, an amount in cash per share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock for each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock held by them equal to the greater of (x) one times the Stated Value; and (y) the total amount of consideration that would have been payable on such share upon a Liquidation Event, had such share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock been converted into common stock, immediately prior to such Liquidation Event (as applicable, the “Liquidation Preference”). The “Stated Value” is $17.30 per share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, for a total aggregate Liquidation Preference of $17,300,000.

Conversion Rights. None prior to Stockholder Approval. After Stockholder Approval, at the option of the holder(s) thereof, each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into a number of shares of common stock of the Company as equals the Conversion Rate. The “Conversion Rate” shall initially be 0.685 (or 685,000 shares in aggregate, which would represent 40% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock)), as equitably adjusted, as applicable for stock splits and recapitalizations; provided that if at any time after the original issuance date of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and prior to the Series B Stockholder Approval date, the Company shall actually issue any additional shares of common stock of the Company (each a “Dilutive Issuance”), the Conversion Rate shall be increased to a value equal to (x)(i) the total outstanding shares of common stock (“Total Outstanding Shares”) on the date immediately following such Dilutive Issuance, divided by (ii) 60%, minus (iii) the Total Outstanding Shares on the date immediately following such Dilutive Issuance, divided by (y) 1,000,000, rounded to the thousands place, as equitably adjusted, as applicable for stock splits and recapitalizations (each a “Dilutive Adjustment”); provided that in no event will the Conversion Rate be greater than ten. The effect of any change in the Conversion Rate shall not be retroactive and shall only apply for conversions of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock following the date of any Dilutive Adjustment. The Conversion Rate is fixed at the time of Series B Stockholder Approval and is not subject to further adjustment thereafter. The Conversion Rate is designed to result in the holders of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock receiving 40% of the then outstanding shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (66.7% of the Company’s pre-issuance outstanding shares of common stock), subject to a maximum of 10 million shares of common stock, and further subject to such conversion ratio being fixed upon Series B Stockholder Approval. The Conversion Rate is currently 1.318 or 1,318,000 total shares of common stock in aggregate as of the date of this prospectus.

Redemption Rights. None.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that our Board of Directors be classified into two classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our Board of Directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

Our authorized but unissued common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Securities Eligible for Future Sale

Rule 144

Pursuant to Rule 144, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

Sales by our affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

Description of Securities We Are Offering

Common Stock

The material terms and provisions of our common stock are described in the section titled, “Description of Capital Stock” in this prospectus, above.

Common Warrants

The following summary of certain terms and provisions of the common warrants included in the units and pre-funded units that are being offered hereby is not complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the provisions of the common warrant, the form of which will be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of common warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the common warrants.

Duration, Exercise Price and Form

Each common warrant included in the units and pre-funded units will have an initial exercise price equal to $[●] per share (equal to 100% of the public offering price per unit). The common warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised until the five-year anniversary of the original issuance date. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock and the exercise price. The initial exercise price shall be reset immediately following the thirtieth (30th) calendar day following the closing date of the public offering (the “Reset Date”) to a price equal to the arithmetic average of the VWAPs of the common stock on Nasdaq during the five trading days immediately preceding the Reset Date (the “Reset Price”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Reset Price be less than 20% of the most recent closing price of our common stock on Nasdaq at the time of execution of the securities purchase agreement by the purchasers. The common warrants will be issued separately from the common stock or the pre-funded warrants, as the case may be, and may be transferred separately immediately thereafter. The common warrants will be issued in electronic form.

Exercisability

The common warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise. A holder (together with its affiliates) may not exercise any portion of such holder’s warrants to the extent that the holder would own more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock (or at the election of a holder prior to the date of issuance, 9.99%) immediately after exercise, except that upon at least 61 days’ prior notice from the holder to us, the holder may increase the amount of ownership of outstanding stock after exercising the holder’s warrants up to 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the common warrants. If, at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of, the shares of common stock underlying the warrants, then the warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the warrant.

Fundamental Transactions

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the common warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of our common stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding common stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding common stock, the holders of the common warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the common warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the common warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction, and the successor entity will succeed to, and be substituted for us, and may exercise every right and power that we may exercise and will assume all of our obligations under the common warrants with the same effect as if such successor entity had been named in the common warrant itself. If holders of our common stock are given a choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a fundamental transaction, then the holder shall be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of the common warrant following such fundamental transaction.

Warrant Agent; Global Certificate

The common warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agency agreement between our transfer agent or other warrant agent and us. The common warrants will initially be represented only by one or more global warrants deposited with the warrant agent, as custodian on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and registered in the name of Cede & Co, a nominee of DTC, or as otherwise directed by DTC.

Transferability

Subject to applicable laws, a common warrant may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the common warrant to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon the exercise of the common warrants. Rather, the number of shares of common stock to be issued will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

Trading Market

There is no established trading market for the common warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the common warrants on any securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the common warrants will be limited. The common stock issuable upon exercise of the common warrants is currently listed on Nasdaq.

Rights as a Stockholder

The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and will not expire prior to exercise. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise are subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of stock dividends, stock splits, reorganizations or similar events affecting our common stock.

If, at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the issuance of, the shares of common stock underlying the pre-funded warrants, then the pre-funded warrants may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of common stock determined according to the formula set forth in the pre-funded warrant.

Item 13. Other Expenses of Issuance and Distribution.

The following table sets forth all expenses, other than the underwriting discounts and commissions, payable by the registrant in connection with the sale of the common stock being registered. All the amounts shown are estimates except the SEC registration fee and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, filing fee.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the DGCL authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement for expenses incurred, arising under the Securities Act.

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, and our bylaws provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL.

In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with directors, officers and some employees containing provisions that are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the DGCL. The indemnification agreements will require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.

On April 5, 2023, we entered into a placement agent agreement with A.G.P. On April 5, 2023, in connection with the placement agent agreement, we also entered into a securities purchase agreement pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement, warrants to purchase up to 82,668 shares of our common stock at a purchase price per share of $36.29 (when including shares of common stock and pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock in a registered direct offering) in the concurrent private placement. The offering closed on April 10, 2023. The net proceeds to us from the offering was approximately $2.7 million, after deducting placement agent fees and expenses and estimated offering expenses payable by us. We issued the warrants to purchase up to 82,668 shares of our common stock without registration under the Securities Act, based on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

On August 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “August SPA”) with an accredited investor (the “Purchaser”), in addition to certain purchasers, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate of 35,102 shares of common stock (the “August 2023 Shares”), pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 207,814 shares of common stock (“August 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants”), and common stock warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 242,915 shares of common stock (the “August 2023 Common Warrants”), at a combined purchase price of $12.35 per share and warrant (the “August 2023 Offering”). The August 2023 Offering closed on August 14, 2023.  The August 2023 Offering was registered under a registration statement under the Securities Act.

On November 28, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the August SPA with the Purchaser (the “December 2023 SPA Amendment”), pursuant to which (i) the Purchaser agreed to pay an additional $830,769.30 in connection with the repricing of the August 2023 Shares and August 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants (the “Repricing Amount”), (ii) the Company agreed to issue to the Purchaser (x) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to 257,205 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.0001 per share (the “December 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (y) warrants to purchase up to 477,058 shares of common stock, with an exercise price of $0.17 per share (the “December 2023 Common Warrants” and, together with the December 2023 Pre-Funded Warrants, the “December 2023 Warrants”), and (iii) the Company and the Purchaser agreed to enter into the Warrant Amendment Agreement.

In accordance with the December 2023 SPA Amendment, the Company entered into a warrant amendment agreement with the Purchaser, dated November 28, 2023 (the “December 2023 Warrant Amendment Agreement”), whereby the Company agreed to amend the following outstanding warrants held by the Purchaser: (i) warrants to purchase up to 135,339 shares of common stock, issued on December 22, 2022, and amended in January 2023, April 2023 and August 2023; (ii) warrants to purchase up to 16,138 shares of common stock, issued on July 20, 2022 and amended in April 2023 and August 2023; (iii) warrants to purchase up to 82,668 shares of common stock, issued on April 10, 2023 and August 2023; and (iv) warrants to purchase up to 242,915 shares of common stock underlying the August Common Warrants (collectively, the “Existing Common Warrants”). Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment Agreement, the Existing Common Warrants were amended (the “December 2023 Warrant Amendment”) to not be exercisable until the Company obtained stockholder approval for the issuance of up to 477,058 shares of common stock upon exercise of the Existing Common Warrants (the “Existing Common Warrant Shares”), which stockholder approval was received on February 16, 2024. Pursuant to the December 2023 Warrant Agreement, the Existing Common Warrants were amended to have an exercise price of $3.23 per share, and to expire on the fifth anniversary of the date that the stockholders of the Company approved the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of such Existing Common Warrants, which stockholder approval date, which was February 16, 2024.

The warrants and the warrant shares have not been registered under the Securities Act, and were instead offered pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act.

On February 21, 2024, February 28, 2024, March 6, 2024 and March 7, 2024, the holder of pre-funded warrants to purchase shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.0019 per share, exercised warrants to purchase 58,520, 64,684, 72,000 and 62,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for $111.19, $122.90, $136.80 and $117.80 of cash, respectively, and was issued 58,520, 64,684, 72,000 and 62,000 shares of common stock upon exercise thereof, respectively. The exercise of the warrants was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

On March 12, 2024, a holder of Class K Special Voting Shares converted such shares into 14 shares of common stock of the Company in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act. As a result of such conversion, there are no longer any Class K Special Voting Shares.

On September 30, 2024, we closed the transactions contemplated by that certain September 29, 2024, Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Elray Resources, Inc. (“Elray”), pursuant to which we acquired certain source code and intellectual property relating to an online blockchain casino in consideration for 1,000,000 shares of newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) and warrants to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrants”). The offer and sale of the Preferred Stock and the Warrants were intended to be exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing offer, sales and issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipient confirmed that it was an “accredited investor”, and the recipient acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. The securities are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities will contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

On October 16, 2024, we entered into a warrant inducement agreement (the “Inducement Agreement”) with the Purchaser, the holder of warrants to purchase 950,069 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Exercised Warrants”), pursuant to which the Purchaser agreed to exercise for cash the Exercised Warrants at an exercise price of $3.48 per share ($0.25 greater than the $3.23 per share exercise price of such Exercised Warrants) during the period from the date of the Inducement Agreement until 1:15 p.m., Eastern Time, on October 16, 2024. On October 16 and 17, 2024, the Exercised Warrants were exercised in full for cash by the Purchaser and the Company received $3,306,240 before deducting financial advisory fees and other expenses payable by us.

In consideration of the Purchaser’s agreement to exercise the Exercised Warrants in accordance with the Inducement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue new unregistered Warrants to Purchase Shares of Common Stock (the “Inducement Warrants”) to purchase a number of shares of common stock equal to 200% of the number of shares of common stock issued upon exercise of the Exercised Warrants, i.e., warrants to purchase up to 1,900,138 shares of common stock (the “New Warrant Shares”). The Inducement Warrants were immediately exercisable and have a term of exercise of five years with an exercise price of $1.50 per share.

The Company engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) to provide exclusive financial services in connection with the transactions summarized above and, pursuant to a Financial Advisory Agreement between the Company and A.G.P., paid A.G.P. a financial advisory fee of $232,000, an alternative transaction fee of $100,000. In addition, we reimbursed A.G.P. for its accountable legal expenses in connection with the exercise of the Exercised Warrants and the issuance of the Inducement Warrants of $65,000 and $10,000 non-accountable expenses. In addition, we paid A.G.P. $29,923, half of the financial advisory fees due in connection with a December 2023 warrant inducement. As of the date of this registration statement, a total of $436,923 related to the aforementioned transaction has been paid to A.G.P and there is no balance outstanding.

The Company claims an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of the Securities Act for the issuance of the Inducement Warrants since the foregoing issuance did not involve a public offering, the recipient took the securities for investment and not resale, we took appropriate measures to restrict transfer, and the recipient was an accredited investor. The securities are subject to transfer restrictions, and the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use; and

(5) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(d) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
