  • BTC AB issues preference shares to raise $783K, aiming to grow Bitcoin holdings and shareholder value.
  • Matador Technologies plans up to $58M funding to reach 1,000 BTC by 2026, timing purchases carefully.
  • Upexi files to raise $1B, boosting Solana treasury and supporting diverse crypto operations.

Swedish public company Bitcoin Treasury Capital (BTC AB) is expanding its Bitcoin holdings through a new preference share issuance. The company announced a directed issue of 60,400 preference A shares, raising roughly SEK 7.2 million ($783,000) from external investors.

As per the announcement, each share costs SEK 120 and pays SEK 1 every month, giving investors a 10% yearly return. BTC AB will use the money mainly to buy more Bitcoin, grow value for shareholders, and keep the business flexible.

The move comes as BTC AB strengthens its position as a pure-play Bitcoin investment company. Christoffer De Geer, CEO, commented, “The directed preference share issue strengthens BTC AB’s balance sheet and provides additional financial flexibility. It enables the Company to continue executing its strategy while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation and risk management.”

The issuance targets external investors, including Navtej Singh Garayal and Daniel Robert Fischer, who fully subscribed to the new shares. Settlement is expected by February 2026.

Global Corporate Bitcoin Moves Gain Momentum

The approach taken by BTC AB is in line with other companies that are hastening to acquire Bitcoins for their corporations. The Canadian company, Matador Technologies, received approval to issue shares and other securities amounting to CAD 80 million, which is approximately $58 million. The money is meant to grow their Bitcoins to 1,000 by 2026.

The strategy was emphasized by CEO Deven Soni, stating that the company would employ various sources of financing, including the timing of purchases based on market fluctuations. At the current rate, Matador currently has 175 BTC, valued at $15.3 million, placing it 90th among the world’s top corporate holders of Bitcoin.

Meanwhile, U.S.-listed Upexi (UPXI) filed a shelf registration with the SEC to raise as much as $1 billion. The company manages over 2 million SOL tokens, valued at $248 million, and seeks flexibility to sell stock, preferred shares, debt instruments, or warrants. The capital aims to support Upexi’s diverse crypto operations, including Solana treasury growth and consumer brand management
