Insights

Director’s RSUs settled into 168,750 shares, a routine equity compensation event.

Director James H. Cavanaugh had two blocks of restricted stock units granted in November 2025 and December 2025 that settled on March 13, 2026 into a total of 168,750 shares of Cypherpunk common stock.

The RSUs were granted for no cash consideration under the 2022 and 2025 equity incentive plans and vested at issuance. This filing reflects a derivative exercise/conversion, not open‑market buying or selling, so it is primarily an administrative record of equity compensation becoming tradable stock.

Following settlement, Cavanaugh directly held 168,963 common shares. With no remaining derivative positions shown and no sales reported, this appears as a standard step in the company’s long‑term incentive program rather than a directional bet on the share price.
