SINGAPORE, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --?BTC Digital Ltd. ("BTCT" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:?BTCT), a leading blockchain technology company, today announced a transformative, strategic shift to fully embrace Ethereum (ETH) as its core asset and operational foundation. As part of this initiative, BTCT has closed a $6?million financing round and added a new $1?million ETH position. Going forward, the Company intends to convert all existing and future Bitcoin (BTC) holdings into ETH to build a long-term, productive on-chain asset pool and to anchor its mid- and long-term growth around the Ethereum ecosystem.
" Ethereum has emerged as the premier platform for decentralized finance, real-world asset tokenization, and scalable smart-contract innovation," said Mr. Siguang Peng, CEO of BTCT. "By reallocating our digital-reserve strategy toward ETH, we are positioning BTCT at the forefront of next-generation on-chain finance. This pivot not only positions us with one of the fastest-growing crypto assets, but also enables us to participate directly in staking, DeFi protocols, RWA initiatives, and other leading Ethereum -based opportunities."
As one of the first publicly traded companies to declare Ethereum its strategic core asset-alongside peers such as BMNR, SBET, and BTBT-BTCT's roadmap includes:
- Rapid Reserve Expansion
• Leverage the recent $6?million financing to accelerate ETH accumulation.
• Target aggregate ETH reserves in the tens of millions of dollars by year-end. - Staking and Yield Generation
• Launch a comprehensive ETH staking program to secure network operations and earn predictable rewards.
• Reinvest staking yields to compound reserve growth over time. - Active Ecosystem Participation
• Engage in high-quality DeFi, Real-World Asset (RWA), and stablecoin projects built on Ethereum.
• Forge partnerships to broaden use cases and drive utility for ETH holdings.
Looking Ahead
BTCT will evolve from a mining-driven business into a production-asset-driven digital-asset operator, anchored by Ethereum. Key initiatives include:
- ETH -Backed Yield Pools: Build staking-and-liquidity pools to generate sustainable cash flows.
- Inclusive Infrastructure: Develop stablecoin reserves, cross-chain settlement rails, and on-chain asset issuance platforms leveraging ETH.
- Ecosystem Integration: Expand strategic alliances across Ethereum 's DeFi, NFT, and Layer-2 scaling communities.
"By centering our digital-asset strategy on Ethereum, BTCT is creating a robust framework for long-term value creation, diversified yield sources, and innovative financial products," added Mr. Siguang Peng, CEO of BTCT. "We believe this pivot will deliver superior risk-adjusted returns for shareholders and position BTCT as a pioneer in the emerging on-chain economy."
