SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Sept. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Caliber (NASDAQ: CWD), a diversified real estate and digital asset management platform, today announced it has completed a $6.5 million purchase of Chainlink (LINK) tokens as part of its Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) Strategy.
The Company acquired 278,011 LINK tokens at an average acquisition price of $23.38 per token (inclusive of fees and expenses). This marks Caliber's first significant purchase and its second overall under the DAT Strategy, bringing Caliber total stake in LINK tokens to $6.7 million and making Caliber one of the largest publicly traded holders of LINK. The Company is funding its LINK acquisitions through its existing shelf registration, cash reserves, and equity-based securities.
On August 7, 2025, Chainlink introduced the Chainlink Reserve, a strategic on-chain reserve of LINK designed to support the network's long-term growth and sustainability. The Reserve is funded via Payment Abstraction, which converts enterprise and onchain revenues into LINK and adds them to the reserve. As of this announcement, Caliber's LINK holdings are approximately equal to the Chainlink Reserve's current balance, according to Chainlink's public reserve dashboard.
"We intentionally structured this purchase to symbolically align our treasury with the Chainlink Reserve," said Chris Loeffler, Chief Executive Officer of Caliber. "Our goal is to honor the infrastructure-first vision that Sergey Nazarov and the Chainlink team have consistently executed, and to reinforce our conviction that Chainlink's oracle platform is foundational to the future of onchain finance. Importantly, this is only the beginning-we intend to continually grow our LINK reserve through disciplined, incremental acquisitions over time, building a material position in a way that is responsible, transparent, and sustainable."
Caliber's DAT Strategy is designed around gradual, measured acquisitions that allow the Company to dollar-cost-average its LINK purchases while generating long-term appreciation and staking yield. Over time, Caliber intends to build one of the largest LINK treasuries held by a public company.
Caliber is the first Nasdaq-listed company to publicly adopt a treasury strategy anchored in LINK. Through this initiative, Caliber provides its shareholders with transparent, mark-to-market exposure to LINK while positioning itself at the intersection of real asset infrastructure and digital asset infrastructure.
