Context
- RSUs are promises to deliver company shares in the future if vesting conditions are met; they do not indicate an immediate purchase or sale and are common executive compensation. Performance-based RSUs depend on long-term targets (VWAP and digital-asset NAV) and may never convert to shares if hurdles aren’t achieved. This filing reports grants rather than trading activity, so it’s informational about compensation rather than a direct insider bet on the stock.
