BTCS Inc. Replaces Independent Auditor, Appoints Forvis Mazars

What Happened BTCS Inc. announced on March 30, 2026 (via Form 8-K) that its Board of Directors, based on the Audit Committee’s recommendation, dismissed RBSM LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and appointed Forvis Mazars, LLP as the new independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. RBSM’s reports on BTCS’s financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were unmodified (no adverse opinion, disclaimer, or qualification), and the company reports no disagreements or “reportable events” with RBSM for those years or through March 30, 2026. BTCS has requested that RBSM provide a letter to the SEC about these disclosures; that letter will be filed as Exhibit 16.1.

Key Details

  • Date of change: March 30, 2026 (Board approved dismissal and appointment).
  • Dismissed firm: RBSM LLP; its 2025 and 2024 audit reports were unmodified.
  • New firm: Forvis Mazars, LLP appointed as independent auditor for fiscal year ending Dec 31, 2026.
  • Pre-appointment consultations: BTCS states it did not consult with Forvis Mazars during 2024, 2025 or the interim period through March 30, 2026 on accounting or auditing matters.

Why It Matters A change in independent auditor is material for investors because the auditor provides assurance on the accuracy of the company’s financial statements. Here, the dismissal appears administrative rather than dispute-driven: prior audit reports were unmodified and the company reports no disagreements or reportable events with RBSM. Investors should watch for the new auditor’s reports on future filings (Form 10-Q/10-K) to see if there are any changes in audit scope, opinion language, or disclosures tied to the transition.
