With the $125 million raised from a recently completed brokered share offering and any income resulting from the BTC purchase, Bitcoin Treasury aims to deliver institutional-grade services tied to the digital asset economy. It said it will focus on disciplined risk management and creating shareholder value as it positions itself as a leader in bitcoin-backed financial solutions.
The company’s shares are set to begin trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on June 30, following its reverse takeover of 2680083 Alberta Ltd. Shares of the merged entity were first listed at C$10 on Thursday with an immediate halt applied by the exchange.
Although neither BTCT nor 268 shares were listed previously, the merger is a corporate shortcut that lets BTCT become a public company without a traditional IPO, using 268 as a private shell vehicle set up specifically for this purpose.
The offering involved multiple financial institutions including Canaccord Genuity, Stifel, National Bank Financial Markets, BMO Capital Markets, and CIBC Capital Markets.
