The funds in the Trust Account were initially held in an account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., and on January 9, 2025, were transferred to an account at CF Secured, LLC (“CF Secured”), an affiliate of the Sponsor. The Trust Account may be (a) invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), with a maturity of 185 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, (b) held as uninvested cash, or (c) held in a non-interest or interest bearing demand deposit account at a U.S. chartered commercial bank, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of the Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Business Combination —</span> The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the Private Placement, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating the Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete the Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding taxes payable on income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the Business Combination.

The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of the Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (which, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, was $10.71 and $10.53 per Public Share, respectively, and for both periods, inclusive of $0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor Note (as defined below) in the applicable Redemption Event (as defined below)). The Public Shares are recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, <i>Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity</i> (“ASC 480”). In such case, the Company will proceed with the Business Combination if a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as may be amended, the “Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing the Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the Business Combination is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the Business Combination, or if they vote at all. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor and the Company’s directors and officers have agreed to vote their Founder Shares (as defined in Note 4), their Private Placement Shares and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of the Business Combination (except that any Public Shares such parties may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), would not be voted in favor of approving the Business Combination).

If the Company is unable to complete the Business Combination by the end of the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in each case, to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: center;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Sponsor and the Company’s directors and officers have agreed to waive their liquidation rights from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and the Private Placement Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of the Company’s directors and officers acquire Public Shares in or after the Initial Public Offering, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such Public Shares if the Company fails to complete the Business Combination within the Combination Period. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the residual assets remaining available for distribution (including Trust Account assets) will be less than the initial redemption amount of $10.15 per share (inclusive of $0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor Note). In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account below $10.15 per share (inclusive of $0.15 per redeemed share to be funded pursuant to the Sponsor Note). This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriters of the Initial Public Offering), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Liquidity and Capital Resources</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> As of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $25,000 of cash in its operating account.

The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">This may make comparison of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements with another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.</p> 20000000 0.0001 10 200000000 500000 10 5000000 4500000 4100000 400000 200000000 10 0.80 0.50 10.71 10.53 0.15 0.15 1 1 1 0.01 0.01 500000000 0.01 125000000 125000000 3200000 0.07 320000000 34870000 9323000 30500000 574693000 300000 30000000 85 25500000 2236000 223620000 85 190080000 482924 48300000 85 41050000 3019200 301920000 256632000 40000000 10 400000000 10 4156.11 1 10 10 865 10 10 20 20 10 20 5021.11 0.50 10 10 4176.11 10.15 0.15 10.15 0.15 25000 25000 1332000 589000 11233000 7513000 25000 134000 1750000 925000 486000 P10D 0.15 10.71 10.53 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies</span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Use of Estimates</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the forward sale securities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available, and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Cash and Cash Equivalents</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

The Company’s assets held in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 comprised predominantly of approximately $211,233,000 and approximately $207,513,000, respectively, in cash equivalents. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: center;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Concentration of Credit Risk</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation maximum coverage limit of $250,000, and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account.

The assessment considers whether the forward sale securities are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the forward sale securities are indexed to the Company’s own shares. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and as of each subsequent quarterly period-end date while the forward sale securities are outstanding. The forward sale securities that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the forward sale securities are recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period of the change.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company accounts for the forward sale securities in accordance with guidance in ASC 480-10, <i>Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity</i>, pursuant to which the forward sale securities do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as liabilities or assets.

Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. All of the Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes any subsequent changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares to the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares also resulted in charges against Additional paid-in capital and Accumulated deficit. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, as presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, are reconciled in the following table:</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;"> <tbody><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255);"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; width: 88%; text-align: left;">Gross proceeds</td> <td style="width: 1%;"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left;">$</td> <td style="width: 9%; text-align: right;">200,000,000</td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: White;"><td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in;">Less:</td> <td> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="text-align: right;"> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255);"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; text-align: left;">Issuance costs allocated to Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption</td> <td> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="text-align: right;">(4,529,893</td> <td style="text-align: left;">)</td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: White;"><td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in;">Plus:</td> <td> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="text-align: right;"> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255);"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; padding-bottom: 1.5pt;">Accretion of carrying value to redemption value</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right;">15,043,374</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: White;"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; font-weight: bold; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1.5pt;">Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, December 31, 2025</td> <td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;">$</td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;">210,513,481</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255);"><td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in;">Plus:</td> <td> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="text-align: right;"> </td> <td style="text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: White;"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; padding-bottom: 1.5pt;">Accretion of carrying value to redemption value</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right;">3,719,078</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left;"> </td> </tr><tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255);"> <td style="text-indent: -0.125in; padding-left: 0.125in; font-weight: bold; text-align: left; padding-bottom: 2.5pt;">Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, June 30, 2026</td> <td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 2.5pt;"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;">$</td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;">214,232,559</td> <td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; font-weight: bold; text-align: left;"> </td> </tr></tbody></table><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: center;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Net Income Per Ordinary Share</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company complies with the accounting and disclosure requirements of ASC 260, <i>Earnings Per Share</i>.

The guidance was issued in response to requests from investors for companies to disclose more information about their financial performance at the segment level. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The standard requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis, and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that were previously required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures previously required under ASC 280. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date for the financial statements issued for the annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2024 and applies the guidance for the interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025.

The standard improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date for the Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the footnotes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-02, <i>Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements</i>. The Conceptual Framework establishes concepts that the FASB considers in developing standards. The ASU was issued to remove references to the Conceptual Framework in the Codification. The FASB noted that references to the Concepts Statements in the Codification could have implied that the Concepts Statements are authoritative. Also, some of the references removed were to Concepts Statements that are superseded. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date beginning on January 1, 2025 using a prospective transition method for all new transactions recognized on or after the effective date.

The standard improves financial reporting and responds to investor input that additional expense detail is fundamental to understanding the performance of an entity, assessing its prospects for future cash flows, and comparing its performance over time and with that of other entities. The new guidance requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to financial statements specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. Specified expenses, gains or losses that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP will be required by the ASU to be included in the disaggregated income statement expense line item disclosures, and any remaining amounts will need to be described qualitatively. The new guidance will become effective for the Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028, will require either prospective or retrospective presentation, and early adoption is permitted.

The standard revises current guidance for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that meets the definition of a business. The amendments differ from current U.S. GAAP because, for certain transactions, they replace the requirement that the primary beneficiary of a VIE is always the acquirer with an assessment that requires an entity to consider the factors to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer. Under the amendments, acquisition transactions in which the legal acquiree is a VIE will, in more instances, result in the same accounting outcomes as economically similar transactions in which the legal acquiree is a voting interest entity. The ASU does not change the accounting for a transaction determined to be a reverse acquisition or a transaction in which the legal acquirer is not a business and is determined to be the accounting acquiree. The new guidance will become effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027, will require a prospective transition method for business combinations that occur after the initial adoption date, and early adoption is permitted.

The guidance clarifies the current interim disclosure requirements and their applicability. The ASU is intended to address feedback from stakeholders that the current guidance is difficult to navigate. The amendments do not change the fundamental nature or expand or reduce the disclosure requirements of interim reporting. The ASU creates a comprehensive list of interim disclosures required under U.S. GAAP and incorporates a disclosure principle that requires disclosures at interim periods when an event or change that has a material effect on an entity has occurred since the previous year end.

The disclosures under the final rules would include certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, including the aggregate amounts and where in the financial statements they are presented. If carbon offsets or renewable energy credits or certificates (“RECs”) are deemed a material component of the registrant’s plans to achieve its disclosed climate-related targets, registrants would be required to disclose information about the offsets and RECs. Registrants would also be required to disclose whether and how (1) exposures to risks and uncertainties associated with, or known impacts from, severe weather events and other natural conditions and (2) any disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans materially impacted the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the financial statements. Finally, registrants would be required to disclose additional contextual information about the above disclosures, including how each financial statement effect was derived and the accounting policy decisions made to calculate the effects, for the most recently completed fiscal year and, if previously disclosed or required to be disclosed, for the historical fiscal year for which audited financial statements are included in the filing. In April 2024, the SEC released an order staying the rules pending judicial review of all of the petitions challenging the rules and in March 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the rules. In May 2026, the SEC issued a proposal for stakeholder comment to fully rescind its climate-related disclosure rules. Absent these developments, the rules would have been effective for the Company upon its registration under the Exchange Act on January 6, 2025 and phased in starting in 2027. Management is continuing to monitor the developments pertaining to the rules and any resulting potential impacts on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Use of Estimates</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these consolidated financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the forward sale securities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available, and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Cash and Cash Equivalents</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents in its operating account as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company’s assets held in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 comprised predominantly of approximately $211,233,000 and approximately $207,513,000, respectively, in cash equivalents. </p> 211233000 207513000 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Concentration of Credit Risk</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in financial institutions which, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation maximum coverage limit of $250,000, and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts. </p> 250000 <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Fair Value of Financial Instruments</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">Under ASC 820, <i>Fair Value Measurement</i> (“ASC 820”), “fair value” is defined as the price that would be received for sale of an asset or paid for transfer of a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820 approximates the carrying amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, with the exception of the forward sale securities.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Offering Costs Associated with the Initial Public Offering</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> Offering costs consisted of legal and other fees incurred in connection with the preparation for the Initial Public Offering.

The assessment considers whether the forward sale securities are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the forward sale securities are indexed to the Company’s own shares. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and as of each subsequent quarterly period-end date while the forward sale securities are outstanding. The forward sale securities that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification are required to be recorded at their initial fair value at the time of the execution of the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements and on each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the forward sale securities are recognized on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in the period of the change.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">The Company accounts for the forward sale securities in accordance with guidance in ASC 480-10, <i>Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity</i>, pursuant to which the forward sale securities do not meet the criteria for equity classification and must be recorded as liabilities or assets. See Note 7—Fair Value Measurement on a Recurring Basis for further discussion of the methodology used to determine the fair value of the forward sale securities and Note 9—Subsequent Events for additional information regarding the CEPO BTC Equity PIPE Subscription Agreements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 16.2pt;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company accounts for its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC 480. Class A ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A ordinary shares (including Class A ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A ordinary shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. All of the Public Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, 20,000,000 Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented as temporary equity outside of the shareholders’ deficit section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes any subsequent changes in redemption value immediately as they occur and adjusts the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares to the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. Immediately upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company recognized the accretion from initial book value to redemption amount value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares. This method would view the end of the reporting period as if it were also the redemption date for the security. The change in the carrying value of redeemable Class A ordinary shares also resulted in charges against Additional paid-in capital and Accumulated deficit. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif;

The Company provides for uncertain tax positions, based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. Management is required to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position.

The guidance was issued in response to requests from investors for companies to disclose more information about their financial performance at the segment level. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them or applies the quantitative thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The standard requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an annual and interim basis, and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that were previously required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to provide the new disclosures and all the disclosures previously required under ASC 280. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date for the financial statements issued for the annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2024 and applies the guidance for the interim periods beginning on January 1, 2025.

The standard improves the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The ASU also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date for the Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the footnotes to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-02, <i>Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements</i>. The Conceptual Framework establishes concepts that the FASB considers in developing standards. The ASU was issued to remove references to the Conceptual Framework in the Codification. The FASB noted that references to the Concepts Statements in the Codification could have implied that the Concepts Statements are authoritative. Also, some of the references removed were to Concepts Statements that are superseded. The Company adopted the standard on the required effective date beginning on January 1, 2025 using a prospective transition method for all new transactions recognized on or after the effective date. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><i>New Accounting Pronouncements</i></span></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;">In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, <i>Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses</i>. The standard improves financial reporting and responds to investor input that additional expense detail is fundamental to understanding the performance of an entity, assessing its prospects for future cash flows, and comparing its performance over time and with that of other entities. The new guidance requires public business entities to disclose in the notes to financial statements specified information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. Specified expenses, gains or losses that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP will be required by the ASU to be included in the disaggregated income statement expense line item disclosures, and any remaining amounts will need to be described qualitatively. The new guidance will become effective for the Company’s consolidated financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027 and interim reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2028, will require either prospective or retrospective presentation, and early adoption is permitted.

The standard revises current guidance for determining the accounting acquirer for a transaction effected primarily by exchanging equity interests in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) that meets the definition of a business. The amendments differ from current U.S. GAAP because, for certain transactions, they replace the requirement that the primary beneficiary of a VIE is always the acquirer with an assessment that requires an entity to consider the factors to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer. Under the amendments, acquisition transactions in which the legal acquiree is a VIE will, in more instances, result in the same accounting outcomes as economically similar transactions in which the legal acquiree is a voting interest entity. The ASU does not change the accounting for a transaction determined to be a reverse acquisition or a transaction in which the legal acquirer is not a business and is determined to be the accounting acquiree. The new guidance will become effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2027, will require a prospective transition method for business combinations that occur after the initial adoption date, and early adoption is permitted.

The guidance clarifies the current interim disclosure requirements and their applicability. The ASU is intended to address feedback from stakeholders that the current guidance is difficult to navigate. The amendments do not change the fundamental nature or expand or reduce the disclosure requirements of interim reporting. The ASU creates a comprehensive list of interim disclosures required under U.S. GAAP and incorporates a disclosure principle that requires disclosures at interim periods when an event or change that has a material effect on an entity has occurred since the previous year end.

The amendments apply to all reporting entities in the scope of the affected accounting guidance.

The disclosures under the final rules would include certain effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions, including the aggregate amounts and where in the financial statements they are presented. If carbon offsets or renewable energy credits or certificates (“RECs”) are deemed a material component of the registrant’s plans to achieve its disclosed climate-related targets, registrants would be required to disclose information about the offsets and RECs. Registrants would also be required to disclose whether and how (1) exposures to risks and uncertainties associated with, or known impacts from, severe weather events and other natural conditions and (2) any disclosed climate-related targets or transition plans materially impacted the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the financial statements. Finally, registrants would be required to disclose additional contextual information about the above disclosures, including how each financial statement effect was derived and the accounting policy decisions made to calculate the effects, for the most recently completed fiscal year and, if previously disclosed or required to be disclosed, for the historical fiscal year for which audited financial statements are included in the filing. In April 2024, the SEC released an order staying the rules pending judicial review of all of the petitions challenging the rules and in March 2025, the SEC voted to end its defense of the rules. In May 2026, the SEC issued a proposal for stakeholder comment to fully rescind its climate-related disclosure rules. Absent these developments, the rules would have been effective for the Company upon its registration under the Exchange Act on January 6, 2025 and phased in starting in 2027.

margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company has not yet commenced operations, thus all activity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 relates to the Company’s formation, the Initial Public Offering, and the Company’s efforts toward locating and completing a suitable Business Combination. The Company has identified its Chairman and <span style="-sec-ix-hidden:fc_411974573;">Chief Executive Officer</span> as the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). The Company consists of one reportable segment, because the resource allocation and assessment of performance of the entity’s business activities by the CODM are performed using the entity-wide operating results. The net income (loss) is the measure of segment profit (loss) most consistent with U.S. GAAP that is regularly reviewed by the CODM to allocate resources and assess financial performance. When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation, the CODM also reviews interest income and general and administrative expenses included in the net income (loss). The CODM reviews interest income on investments held in the Trust Account to measure and monitor shareholder value and determine the most effective strategy for investing the Trust Account funds while maintaining compliance with the terms of the trust agreement. In addition, the CODM reviews and monitors general and administrative expenses to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and to ensure expenses are aligned with the underlying contractual agreements. </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;"> </p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify;"> The Company does not have operating income and therefore, it does not have any operating revenues.
