[Form 4] Edgemode, Inc. Insider Trading Activity

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Edgemode, Inc. disclosed that its Chief Executive Officer, director and 10% owner, Charles Faulkner, entered into a compensation-related equity transaction. On 12/10/2025, Faulkner converted $386,000 of accrued salary under his employment agreement into one share of Series D Preferred Stock.

The Series D Preferred Stock is perpetual, carries no conversion feature, and has no redemption, preferential dividend or liquidation rights. Instead, it provides significant voting power: each share votes together with common stock and carries voting power equal to 25.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Edgemode. The filing reports this preferred share as being held directly by Faulkner.

Equity Compensation & Governance Analyst

Edgemode’s CEO swaps $386K salary for a single preferred share with 25.5% voting power.

Edgemode reports that CEO Charles Faulkner converted $386,000 of accrued salary into one share of Series D Preferred Stock on 12/10/2025. This represents compensation being settled in equity rather than cash, which affects both the company’s cash obligations and the CEO’s alignment with long-term outcomes.

The Series D Preferred Stock is unusual: it is perpetual, non-convertible and carries no redemption, preferential dividend or liquidation rights. Its key feature is governance: each share votes with common stock and has voting power equal to 25.5% of Edgemode’s issued and outstanding common shares. That concentrates substantial voting influence in a single security held by the CEO.

Because this is a Form 4 disclosure, the filing focuses on reporting the change in beneficial ownership rather than broader strategy. The structure indicates a trade-off between cash compensation and a powerful voting instrument, and future company filings may further describe how this preferred share fits into Edgemode’s overall capital and governance structure.
