Item 1. Security and Issuer.

This statement on Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”) relates to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), of Global Blockchain Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at 6555 Sanger Road, Suite 200, Orlando, Florida 32827.

Item 2. Identity and Background.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Funds for the purchase of securities reported herein were derived from available working capital of the Sponsor. The Reporting Person paid the Issuer $25,000 for the Founder Shares (as defined in Item 4) and $6,812,500 for the Private Warrants (as defined in Item 4).

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Founder Shares

Pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements for Founder Shares, dated August 17, 2021 (the “Founder Shares Subscription Agreements”), between the Sponsor and the Issuer, the Sponsor purchased 4,312,500 shares (“Founder Shares”) of Common Stock of the Issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.006 per share.

Private Warrants

On May 12, 2022, pursuant to a private placement warrant purchase agreement, the Sponsor purchased 6,812,500 private warrants (the “Private Warrants”) from the Issuer for an aggregate purchase price of $6,812,500. Each Private Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment.

The Private Warrants are identical to the warrants sold in the Issuer’s initial public offering except that the Private Warrants: (i) will not be redeemable by the Issuer and (ii) may be exercised for cash or on a cashless basis, in each case so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or any of their permitted transferees.

Working Capital Loans

The Reporting Person or the Issuer’s officers, directors or initial stockholders, or their respective affiliates, may, but are not obligated to, loan the Issuer funds, from time to time or at any time, in whatever amount they deem reasonable in their sole discretion. Each loan would be evidenced by a promissory note. The notes would either be paid upon consummation of the Issuer’s initial Business Combination, without interest, or, at the holder’s discretion, up to $1,000,000 of the notes may be converted into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrants (“Working Capital Warrants”). The Working Capital Warrants, if any, would be identical to the Private Warrants. The terms of such loans, if any, have not been determined.

Warrant Agreement

The Warrants are governed by the terms of the Warrant Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2022 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Issuer and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), as warrant agent. Each Warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described therein, at any time commencing 30 days after the consummation by the Issuer of a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (“Business Combination”), and terminating at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the earlier to occur of: (x) five years from the consummation of a Business Combination, (y) the date the Issuer elects to redeem all Warrants subject to redemption and (z) the liquidation of the Issuer.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of May 9, 2022 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Issuer, the Sponsor and certain other security holders, the holders of the Founder Shares, the Private Warrants (and underlying securities) and any Working Capital Warrants (and underlying securities), including any securities of the Issuer issued as a dividend or other distribution with respect to or in exchange for or in replacement of such securities (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”), including the Sponsor, are entitled to make up to three demands that the Issuer register such securities. In addition, the holders of the Registrable Securities, including the Sponsor, have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the Issuer’s consummation of a Business Combination.

Letter Agreement

On May 9, 2022, the Issuer entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with the Reporting Person and the other parties thereto (collectively, the “Insiders”). Under the Letter Agreement, among other matters, the Insiders agreed with the Issuer: (i) that they will not propose, or vote in favor of, any amendment to the Issuer’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”) (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to conversion rights as described in the Registration Statement or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Issuer provides public stockholders with the opportunity to convert their shares upon the approval of any such amendment; (ii) that if the Issuer solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business Combination, the Insiders will vote all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them, whether acquired before, in, or after the IPO, in favor of such Business Combination; and (iii) to waive any right to exercise redemption rights with respect to any shares of Common Stock owned or to be owned by them, directly or indirectly (or to sell such shares to the Issuer in a tender offer), whether acquired before, in or after the IPO, and not to seek redemption with respect to such shares in connection with any vote to approve a Business Combination (or sell such shares to the Issuer in a tender offer in connection with such a Business Combination) or any amendment to the Issuer’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation prior thereto. 

The foregoing summary of certain terms of the Private Warrants Subscription Agreement, the Warrant Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Letter Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the documents, which are incorporated by reference as Exhibits 1-4 to this Schedule 13D.

Except as set forth herein, neither of the Reporting Persons has any present plan or proposal that would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in subparagraphs (a) - (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons intend to review the Reporting Person’s investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis. Depending on various factors including, without limitation, the Issuer’s financial position and strategic direction, actions taken by the board of directors, price levels of the Common Stock, other investment opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, conditions in the securities market and general economic and industry conditions, the Reporting Person may in the future take such actions with respect to the Reporting Persons’ investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate including, without limitation, purchasing additional Common Stock or selling some or all of their shares of Common Stock and, alone or with others, pursuing discussions with the management, the board of directors, other stockholders of the Issuer and third parties with regard to their investment in the Issuer, and/or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

(a) - (b) As described in Item 4, the Reporting Persons may be deemed the beneficial owner of 4,312,500 shares of Common Stock, in each case directly held by the Reporting Person, representing approximately 19.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. This does not include shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Warrants because the Private Warrants are not exercisable within the following 60 days.

The aggregate percentage of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons is calculated based upon 22,012,500 shares of Common Stock, as reported by the Issuer in its Form S-1 file number 333-264396.

By virtue of his control of the Sponsor, Mr. Hooper has the sole power to (i) vote or direct the voting and (ii) dispose or direct the disposition of all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Sponsor.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

Other than the agreements described in Item 4 and relationships described in Item 2, as of the date hereof, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 hereof and between such persons and any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
