The Smarter Web Company PLC has added to its Bitcoin holdings, reinforcing a long-term treasury strategy that increasingly mirrors a broader corporate shift toward digital assets.
The London-listed firm confirmed it purchased 11 Bitcoin for approximately £592,915, at an average price of £53,901 per coin. The latest acquisition brings its total holdings to 2,706 Bitcoin, accumulated at an average cost of £82,437 per Bitcoin, with total investment exceeding £223 million.
The move forms part of the company’s “10 Year Plan,” which prioritises Bitcoin accumulation as a core treasury policy rather than a short-term allocation.

A Bitcoin treasury is when companies hold Bitcoin on their balance sheet instead of (or alongside) cash to hedge against inflation and benefit from potential price growth. Major adopters like Strategy, Tesla, and Coinbase use it to diversify reserves, but it exposes them to high volatility and regulatory risk while also influencing market sentiment.
Bitcoin strategy deepens amid treasury shift
The company reported a quarter-to-date BTC Yield of 11.38%, a metric used internally to measure the growth of Bitcoin holdings relative to its share base. The approach signals an ongoing commitment to increasing Bitcoin exposure in a way designed to be accretive to shareholders.
Since adopting Bitcoin payments in 2022, the firm has steadily integrated digital assets into its financial model, positioning Bitcoin as both a reserve asset and a long-term growth driver. Management has framed the strategy as part of a broader belief that Bitcoin will play a central role in the future global financial system.
Corporate adoption trend gains traction
The latest purchase highlights a growing trend among public companies shifting portions of treasury reserves into Bitcoin. Unlike speculative trading, these strategies focus on long-term accumulation and balance sheet positioning.
While the company acknowledged the risks associated with Bitcoin, including volatility, regulatory uncertainty, and market liquidity constraints, it maintains that the asset represents a viable store of value over time.
The firm also emphasised that its Bitcoin exposure remains a corporate treasury decision rather than a direct investment proxy for shareholders, as adoption of crypto-based treasury models continues to evolve across public markets.
Similarly, the Smarter Web Company completed a voluntary purchase offer to buy back and cancel 3 million Pre-IPO warrants, a move the firm says strengthens shareholder metrics tied to its Bitcoin treasury strategy.
