Edmonton, Alberta June 18, 2025 TheNewswire - Bitcoin Well Inc. (" Bitcoin Well " or the " Company ") ( TSXV: BTCW; OTCQB: BCNWF ), Bitcoin Well Canada Ltd. (" Bitcoin Well Canada "), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, has received a judgment from the Court of King's Bench of Alberta against Rapid Cash ATM Ltd. (" Rapid Cash " or " Rapid Cash ATM" ) in the amount of $541,988.88, plus costs in the amount of $9,988.15.
On February 1, 2024, Bitcoin Well Canada filed an application in Court of King's Bench of Alberta File No. 2301-14199 (the " Action ") seeking partial summary judgment against Rapid Cash for the return of over $0.5 million withheld by Rapid Cash following termination of the parties' Hosting Agreement in late 2023 (the " Summary Judgment Application ").
On February 20, 2025, the Court of King's Bench released its written Endorsement with respect to the Summary Judgment Application (the " Decision "), finding that "it is manifestly unjust to allow Rapid Cash to hold onto Bitcoin Well [Canada]'s money pending adjudication of the damages claims" and observing that "the wording of the agreement is more consistent with Bitcoin Well [Canada]'s position than with Rapid Cash's position". In the result, the Court granted the Summary Judgment Application and ordered Rapid Cash to pay Bitcoin Well Canada the amount of $509,582.11, plus pre-judgment interest in the amount of $32,406.77, for a total judgment of $541,988.88 (the " Judgment " ). The Court subsequently ordered Rapid Cash to pay Bitcoin Well Canada costs for the application in the amount of $9,988.15. Full copies of the Court's Decision can be found here and the resulting Order can be found here
On May 1, 2025, Rapid Cash filed an application (the " Stay Application ") seeking to stay enforcement of the Judgment pending Rapid Cash's ongoing appeal of the Decision, which is currently scheduled for November 5, 2025 (the " Appeal "). On June 13, 2025, the Court dismissed Rapid Cash's Stay Application, such that the Judgment remains in effect.
Further, Bitcoin Well intends to vigorously defend the Appeal and pursue the balance of Bitcoin Well Canada's claims against Rapid Cash, which seek damages for Rapid Cash's alleged improper termination of the parties' agreement, and likewise defend Rapid Cash's counterclaims in the Action.
Copies of the decision and other materials filed in the Action are publicly available and may be obtained from the Court of King's Bench of Alberta.

Edmonton, Alberta May 27, 2025 TheNewswire - Bitcoin Well Inc. (" Bitcoin Well " or the " Company ") ( TSXV: BTCW; OTCQB: BCNWF ), the non-custodial bitcoin business on a mission to enable independence announces a first-of-its-kind Nostr integration to allow Bitcoin Well customers in the USA to purchase bitcoin directly from their Nostr profile.
Key points:
How it Works:
Bitcoin Well customers link their Nostr identifier (npub) to their Bitcoin Well account, then DM the Bitcoin Well account with specific commands to purchase bitcoin.
The purchase uses the customers Cash Balance, and bitcoin is sent to an existing Lightning Wallet for security.
Why it Matters:
The integration makes Bitcoin Well the easiest place to buy bitcoin, enabling fast, secure purchases directly from a customer's Nostr profile.
It aligns with the company's mission to simplify self-custody bitcoin purchases.
Nostr's Role:
As a censorship-resistant protocol, Nostr ensures Bitcoin Well and its customers have full control, avoiding restrictions and potential censorship.
Impact:
This enhances customer convenience, meets Bitcoiners on a platform they already use, and reinforces Bitcoin Well's commitment to accessible, non-custodial bitcoin services.
This move continues to position Bitcoin Well as a leader in freedom technologies by making bitcoin in self custody the standard. For detailed information keep reading, or visit https://bitcoinwell.com/blog/buy-bitcoin-with-nostr
Why does this matter?
Social media, specifically Nostr, is one of the most impactful technologies of our generation. Our lives, our communities and our personalities have transitioned to the digital realm. Bitcoin Well has now enabled everyone in the USA to buy bitcoin safely, directly from their Nostr account.
In doing this, Bitcoin Well has become the easiest place to buy bitcoin! With a simple message, our customers in the USA can now purchase bitcoin in a matter of seconds; without logging in to their Bitcoin Well account.
"This is a great achievement for our team!" said Adam O'Brien, founder and CEO of Bitcoin Well. "We are deeply committed to make buying bitcoin directly to self custody better than using a custodial exchange. This is a huge step in the right direction. We are meeting bitcoiners where they are and allowing them to buy bitcoin safely."
How does it work?
Once a customer links their npub (the social network identifier used by the Nostr protocol) to their Bitcoin Well account from their profile page , they can DM the Bitcoin Well Nostr profile with the command words to purchase bitcoin. The command words are:
/buy $21.00 (or any dollar amount)
/stack 69,000 sats (or any amount of sats)
After a simple "/confirm" response, the customer's Cash Balance in their Bitcoin Well account will be used to buy bitcoin, and the bitcoin will be sent to their predetermined payment address over the Lightning Network.
To maintain security, bitcoin can only be sent to a Lightning Wallet which has already been added to their Bitcoin Well account.
What is Nostr?
Nostr is a decentralized social media protocol which is censorship resistant and runs on a network of relays, rather than centralized servers. This means that the users of the platform control the posts (known as "notes") rather than the owner of the social media platform. This is particularly impactful for the Company because it means we have full control over our message servers; which hasn't been the case in the past.
Historically, our messaging platforms have prohibited us from creating a "text to buy" type of service. Even our payment providers have been limited in the past. With the addition of the Nostr protocol we can be certain that this level of censorship will not impact us, or our customer's ability to buy bitcoin. Furthermore, there is an added layer of protection for the customer's privacy.

Edmonton, Alberta May 6, 2025 TheNewswire - Bitcoin Well Inc. (" Bitcoin Well " or the " Company ") ( TSXV: BTCW; OTCQB: BCNWF ), the non-custodial bitcoin business on a mission to enable independence, today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.
Key highlights
Financial overview
| For the three months ended, | ||||||||
| March 31, 2025 | March 31, 2024 | |||||||
| Revenue | 31,802,012 | 16,181,120 | ||||||
| Gross Profit | 1,084,450 | 802,811 | ||||||
| Adjusted EBITDA (1) | (354,693) | (430,080) | ||||||
| Net income (loss) | 3,293,498 | (8,124,693) | ||||||
| Total comprehensive loss | (1,436,438) | (1,541,738) | ||||||
Total revenue in the first quarter of 2025 showed a significant 97% increase, reaching $31.8 million compared to $16.2 million in the same period of 2024. This growth was driven by a substantial increase in transaction volumes on both the Online Bitcoin Portal and Bitcoin Well Infinite.
Specifically, the Online segment experienced 111% revenue growth, reaching $15.2 million in Q1 2025, compared to $7.2 million in Q1 2024. Bitcoin Well Infinite also demonstrated strong growth, with a 374% increase in revenue, reaching $11.7 million, compared to $2.5 million in the previous year. This overall growth was partially offset by a decline in ATM sales, which decreased to $4.9 million in Q1 2025 from $6.5 million last year.
Bitcoin Well Founder and CEO Adam O'Brien announced the division of online sales into two separate business units starting in 2025: the Online Bitcoin Portal and the newly established Bitcoin Well Infinite business unit. Bitcoin Well Infinite facilitates large bitcoin transactions ($50,000 and above) for high-net-worth individuals and businesses in Canada, the USA, and internationally.
"We expect the strong revenue growth from both business units to continue throughout 2025," stated Adam O'Brien. "The Bitcoin Well Infinite high touch segment will offer a secure and personalized private banking-style solution with a self custody first approach for clients seeking long-term wealth preservation. With our strategic partnerships we are able to service regions broader than just Canada and the United States and have already facilitated transactions world-wide."
Gross profit for Q1 2025 saw a 35% increase to $1.1 million, compared to $0.8 million in Q1 of the previous year, attributed to higher revenue with the gross margin decreasing to 3.4% from 5.0% last year. This decrease was due to a shift in sales mix, with lower margin online and Bitcoin Well Infinite transactions now making up a larger share than high margin Bitcoin ATM sales.
Despite having a lower gross profit margin than Bitcoin ATMs, both the Bitcoin Portal and Bitcoin Well Infinite are more scalable and have lower expansion costs, making them the preferred business units for growth. Q1 2025 saw a gross margin of 1.5% in the Online Bitcoin Portal segment (compared to 0.7% in Q1 2024) and 1.8% in the Bitcoin Well Infinite segment (compared to 1.7% in Q1 2024).
Net income improved from a loss of $9.8 million in Q4 2024 to a positive $3.3 million in Q1 2025, primarily due to favourable fair value changes related to cryptocurrency loans and realized gains on the disposal of digital assets. Loss before other items saw a slight improvement, decreasing to $1.2 million from $1.3 million in Q1 2024.

Bitcoin (BTC) is priced at US$108,948, down by 1.6 percent in the last 24 hours. The day's range for the cryptocurrency brought a low of US$107,741 and a high of US$109,997.
Bitcoin price performance, July 4, 2025.

Bitcoin’s rally to US$108,000 followed strong US labor data that boosted risk appetite early on, alongside continued inflows into Bitcoin spot ETFs (nearly US $50 billion), which helped anchor prices despite broader equity market pullbacks.
Market watchers also noted heightened volatility following the reactivation of two long-dormant Bitcoin wallets containing roughly 20,000 BTC (worth over US$2 billion), raising questions about potential future dumping.
Ethereum (ETH) is priced at US$2,549.85, down by 2.7 percent over the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Wednesday was US$2,502.39 and its highest was US$2,600.55.
President Donald Trump’s flagship “big, beautiful bill,” featuring sweeping tax cuts, narrowly passed the House of Representatives on July 3 with a 218–214 vote and now awaits his signature.
The legislation has stirred concern over the national debt, with Polymarket traders assigning a 90 percent probability of US debt exceeding US$38 trillion by 2025. Bitcoin traded near US$109,886 after the news, with other leading coins including Ethereum and Solana also posting gains.
Elon Musk criticized the bill for potentially inflating the deficit by trillions, while Trump suggested Musk’s criticism stemmed from policy clashes on EV incentives.
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong also raised concerns that a ballooning debt could paradoxically fuel Bitcoin’s status as a reserve asset, despite supporting crypto adoption.
The total crypto market cap climbed to US$3.39 trillion following the vote.
A major redistribution of Bitcoin is underway as long-term whales have sold off around 500,000 BTC over the past year, worth more than US$50 billion at current prices.
According to a Bloomberg report, these sales are being absorbed almost equally by institutional buyers, including spot ETFs and corporate treasuries. That pattern is turning Bitcoin from a high-volatility speculative bet into a steadier institutional portfolio allocation.
Despite steady bullish headlines, the asset has struggled to break through resistance around $110,000, showing a consolidation phase rather than a breakout.
Some of the whales cashing out are early holders dating back to Bitcoin’s earliest cycles, who are swapping BTC for stock-linked deals instead of simply liquidating.
State-owned Russian conglomerate Rostec is moving to launch a ruble-pegged stablecoin called RUBx and a payments network named RT-Pay before year-end, according to TASS.
The stablecoin will be anchored one-to-one with ruble deposits held in treasury accounts, and its code will be independently audited by CertiK. RT-Pay will integrate directly with Russia’s banking system, aiming for instant settlement and smart contract functionality even outside business hours.
Rostec says its platform will follow Russia’s anti-money-laundering and terrorism-financing requirements, in line with the Bank of Russia’s rules.
The stablecoin will run on the Tron blockchain, with its smart contract code to be published on GitHub.
Coinbase’s Layer 2 network Base has lost significant traction this year, registering US$4.3 billion in net outflows through cross-chain bridges, data shows.
This downturn is a sharp reversal from the US$3.8 billion of inflows Base attracted in 2024, when it led the sector in bridge activity. Meanwhile, Ethereum has staged a comeback, seeing US$8.5 billion in inflows compared to net outflows last year.
The slowdown in stablecoin supply growth on Base, now holding steady above $4 billion since May, points to a maturing user base and declining trading volumes.
Bridges are key pieces of crypto infrastructure that allow assets to move between chains, supporting interoperability.
Hong Kong-based chipmaker Nano Labs (NASDAQ:NA) has made its first major move in an ambitious plan to hold up to 10 percent of Binance Coin (BNB) in circulation, snapping up US$50 million of BNB this week.
The company disclosed buying around 74,315 BNB at an average price of US$672, funded partly by convertible notes.
Nano Labs ultimately plans to allocate US$1 billion to BNB holdings, signaling a vote of confidence in Binance’s ecosystem.
However, its shares fell nearly 5 percent on Thursday and lost another 2 percent after hours, reflecting investor worries about its exposure to volatile crypto reserves. Nano Labs’ reserves, including Bitcoin, now stand around US$160 million in total.

Ethereum (ETH) closed at US$2,510.38, up by 3.1 percent over the past 24 hours and its highest valuation of the day. Its lowest valuation on Monday was US$2,443.56.
The REX-Osprey Solana and Staking ETF is set to launch on Wednesday (July 2), as confirmed by issuer REX Shares on Monday. Analysts had predicted this news was imminent just days before its release.
This fund, the first US-staked cryptocurrency ETF, will enable investors to hold Solana and generate yield through staking, potentially fostering wider institutional adoption of cryptocurrency.
REX’s launch comes after thoughtful consideration by the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The commission had previously asserted that the company’s unique C-Corp business structure could be in conflict with Rule 6c-11 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which governs how ETFs operate and are regulated. REX updated its prospectus with positive feedback, securing regulatory approval for the fund.
OSL Group (HKEX:0863), a Hong Kong-listed digital asset platform, saw its shares spike 10 percent after announcing it had acquired Canadian crypto payments firm Banxa. The acquisition supports OSL’s ambitious global expansion strategy, which includes applying for stablecoin licenses as new regulatory frameworks emerge.
Finance Chief Ivan Wong explained that acquiring Banxa would enhance OSL’s cross-border payments capabilities and boost its role in the growing stablecoin market.
Hong Kong’s stablecoin bill, set to take effect on August 1, is a major catalyst for this expansion, with Chinese giants already showing interest. OSL is already licensed in Australia, with deals in Japan, Europe and Indonesia soon to close. The company aims to be a key stablecoin issuer in Asia and beyond.
Tokyo-based Metaplanet (OTCQX:MTPLF,TSE:3350) has added another 1,005 BTC to its corporate treasury, pushing its total holdings to 13,350 BTC. To further build its crypto war chest, the company announced a zero-interest bond issuance worth US$208 million, designed to finance additional Bitcoin purchases.
Metaplanet is well known for its aggressive Bitcoin strategy, which has made it one of the world’s largest corporate holders of the cryptocurrency. Just last week, the hotel and investment firm raised US$515 million through an equity issuance to support its Bitcoin ambitions.
At current market prices around, Metaplanet’s Bitcoin stash is worth well over US$1.4 billion.
Paris-based the Blockchain Group has further strengthened its Bitcoin treasury with the purchase of 60 BTC for around 5.5 million euros, boosting its holdings to 1,788 BTC.
The firm also raised about 600,000 euros by exercising warrants, allowing it to buy an additional 6 BTC.
Blockstream CEO Adam Back invested in the firm’s share offering, subscribing to over 2.1 million new shares, while French asset manager TOBAM contributed nearly 143,000 euros, supporting the purchase of 13 more BTC.
The company conducted an “ATM-type” capital increase with TOBAM, raising 4.1 million euros to fund 41 BTC.
Altogether, the Blockchain Group has secured a BTC yield of roughly 1,270 percent so far this year, with gains amounting to about 46.7 million euros.
Backed Finance, a company focused on bridging traditional financial assets like stocks and ETFs onto blockchain through tokenization, announced the launch of its tokenized stocks product, xStocks, on Monday.
60 stocks are now accessible on Bybit, Kraken and several Solana DeFi protocols, providing users with exposure to traditional stocks through blockchain infrastructure.
"xStocks represent a monumental leap forward in democratizing access to financial markets," said Adam Levi, co-founder of Backed, in a press release. "By bringing familiar assets onto the blockchain with unprecedented accessibility, we are not just bridging traditional finance and DeFi; we are building the foundational blocks for a truly open, efficient, and inclusive global financial system where everyone can participate in wealth creation."
Chainlink announced an early access rollout of its Automated Compliance Engine on Monday.
Built on the Chainlink Runtime Environment and launched in collaboration with Apex Group, GLEIF and ERC-3643 Association, the system automates the process of checking and enforcing financial rules for both traditional and blockchain-based financial activities, making it easier for established financial institutions to use new blockchain technologies in a compliant and safe way.
Topnotch Crypto has launched its new adaptive yield contracts, which the company says are aimed at helping crypto investors maintain returns despite ongoing market volatility.
The contracts use proprietary predictive yield-switching artificial intelligence to automatically rotate customer funds between cloud mining and staking, depending on which is more profitable in real time.
The company’s strategy analyzes a range of on-chain data, from network congestion to staking rates, to continuously optimize yields. Unlike many passive strategies, the adaptive yield approach gives investors exposure to multiple cryptocurrencies to spread out risk. Another highlight is Topnotch’s use of geothermal and solar energy, which helps keep costs down while supporting sustainability goals.

Ethereum (ETH) closed at US$2,449.37, trading flat over the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Friday was US$2,402.46 and its highest valuation was US$2,459.96 at the opening bell.
World Liberty Financial, the crypto venture connected to Donald Trump’s family, has secured a partnership with Re7 Capital, a London-based decentralized finance hedge fund, in a bid to scale its USD1 stablecoin.
Backed by up to US$10 million in investment from Hong Kong’s VMS Group, Re7 Capital will work with World Liberty on deploying a stablecoin vault on the Euler and Lista protocols, while also expanding to Binance’s BNB Chain.
VMS Group, a family office for wealthy Hong Kong clients, is making its first crypto move through its stake in Re7.
Meanwhile, the Middle East’s Aqua 1 Foundation disclosed a US$100 million investment into World Liberty tokens, becoming its largest single investor.
The Aqua 1 Foundation, a relatively low-profile fund based in the United Arab Emirates, confirmed a US$100 million purchase of World Liberty tokens, linked to Donald Trump’s family-backed crypto initiative.
The tokens, known as $WLFI, function as governance tokens, meaning holders vote on protocol changes but cannot yet freely trade them. World Liberty said it hopes to eventually allow these tokens to become transferable.
The partnership will also help identify and develop blockchain projects across South America, Europe, and Asia. The fund also plans to launch a separate vehicle to advance Middle East digital economic initiatives using blockchain and artificial intelligence.
Despite the investment, Aqua 1 maintains a very minimal online footprint, with only three posts on X and a website registered just weeks ago.
World Liberty says Aqua 1’s teams will support its compliance and expansion efforts going forward.
Bitcoin’s performance is stalling despite massive inflows to spot ETFs, pointing to shifting market forces.
The leading crypto asset has climbed just 2 percent for the month, marking its smallest gain since July 2023, even with US$3.9 billion in inflows over recent weeks.
Data shows that whales holding over 10,000 BTC have leaned toward selling, dampening bullish momentum. Smaller wallets have also been net sellers, further pressuring prices as opportunistic traders take profits.
Between January and April, most market participants had offloaded assets until accumulation restarted near US$76,000 in April.
Now, Bitcoin is consolidating with realized profits in the current cycle hitting US$650 billion, higher than last cycle’s $US550 billion.

Ethereum (ETH) closed at US$2,432.58, trading flat over the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Wednesday was US$2,403.59, and its highest valuation was US$2,441.16 at the opening bell.
The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) has formally submitted a rule change to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to allow the listing of the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF.
The dual-asset exchange-traded fund (ETF), which is backed by Donald Trump’s media company, would be held in a 3:1 BTC to ETH ratio, is to be custodied and executed by Crypto.com. The rule change was filed under the SEC’s 19b-4 process, signaling the NYSE’s commitment to fast-track the listing pending regulatory review.
This development follows Trump Media’s previously announced plan to raise US$2.4 billion for its own bitcoin treasury.
Although that fund remains inactive, the ETF proposal is part of a larger suite of politically branded crypto products in the pipeline. So far, only the Truth Social ETF filings have been formally submitted to the SEC.
Bitcoin’s hashrate has dropped 15 percent since June 15, and some in the community point to the attack on Iran as a primary reason, although the exact cause hasn’t been confirmed.
“Hashrate dropped right after Israel's initial strike on Iran. It's not talked about often but Iran has been mining for many years now (over 5 years).. its likely that Israel hit part of Iran's power grid and disrupted some of their mining operation,” an X user known as daniel wrote on Sunday (June 22).
“Can't say whether disrupting (their) mining was part of their plan or simply a secondary effect of the strike, but I think it's likely this is what caused the drop in hashrate.”
However, only 3 percent of the hashrate decrease precisely coincided with events related to attacks on Iran.
According to TechCrunch, the Iranian government imposed a near-total internet blackout on as a precaution against potential cyberattacks, which coincided with a 2.2 percent decline in global hashrate from Thursday (June 19).
The US strike on Iran’s nuclear facility then led to power grid outages in the country, coinciding with a one percent decrease in global hash rates from Saturday (June 21) to Sunday (June 22).
The hashrate had already fallen by over 6.25 percent between June 15 and June 19, before the internet blackout and the US bombing. The current heatwave covering the Eastern coast of the US and Canada could be another contributing factor, as elevated temperatures can lower the efficiency of high-performing technology.
Coinbase Global (NASDAQ:COIN) surpassed its all-time high on Wednesday, reaching US$369.25, more than three percent above its previous record of US$357.39 recorded on November 9, 2021.
The move marks a strong resurgence from its year-to-date low of US$151.47, recorded in April.
Coinbase’s stock price has grown by 38 percent since the start of the year and 134 percent from its closing price on April 8 following the imposition of additional tariffs on China by the US, an event that triggered broader market anxieties and impacted several tech-related equities.
Green Minerals, a deep-sea mining firm listed in Oslo, has kicked off its US$1.2 billion Bitcoin treasury plan with an initial purchase of four BTC, spending roughly US$420,000. The company said it aims to hedge against fiat currency risk and inflation while building a tech-forward balance sheet. Executive Chair Ståle Rodahl called Bitcoin “non-inflationary” and “decentralized,” framing the strategy as a long-term financial hedge.
The move places Green Minerals among 245+ companies holding over US$88 billion in BTC globally. However, the market did not immediately reward the announcement — shares dropped nearly 20 percent before stabilizing.
To increase transparency, the firm plans to report BTC-per-share data for investors going forward.
Japan’s Metaplanet raised ¥74.9 billion (about US$515 million) in one day by exercising stock acquisition rights under its aggressive bitcoin treasury plan. The firm issued 54 million new shares, representing 29 percent of its current outstanding rights, as part of the so-called “555 Million Plan.”
While Metaplanet stock initially plunged 15 percent, it recovered and closed 4 percent higher after the announcement. CEO Simon Gerovich called it a “strategic milestone,” reaffirming the firm’s dedication to bitcoin-backed value creation.
Separately, France-based Blockchain Group also raised US$4.8 million via an equity issuance agreement with TOBAM. The two companies continue to expand their BTC-per-share holdings, with Blockchain Group now holding 1,653 BTC in Europe.
The European Commission is preparing to introduce new stablecoin regulations despite repeated warnings from the European Central Bank (ECB). According to the Financial Times, the upcoming guidance would treat foreign-issued stablecoins as functionally equivalent to their EU counterparts.
The ECB has warned that this could disrupt monetary stability by encouraging deposit flight from banks into crypto.
ECB President Christine Lagarde recently urged lawmakers to fast-track the digital euro, arguing it would safeguard financial autonomy from US-dominated stablecoins.
Despite these concerns, Commission sources say the risk of a stablecoin run is minimal, and any redemptions would mostly occur in the US where reserves are held.
The new rules are expected to be unveiled within days.
According to Econovill, a South Korean media outlet that focuses on economic and financial news, eight major South Korean banks are working together to introduce a won-pegged stablecoin
Expected to launch in late 2025 or early 2026, the project is backed by the Open Blockchain nonprofit, the Decentralized Identity Association and the Korea Financial Telecommunications and Clearings Institute and is considered a significant pioneering step for traditional banks entering the digital asset space.
The announcement follows a report published in Yonhap News on Tuesday (June 24), which cited Bank of Korea Deputy Governor Ryoo Sang-dai’s suggestions that regulated banks be the main issuers of stablecoins.
He also advised beginning with won-denominated stablecoins before expanding into other areas. According to the report, this approach aims to create a safety net for the financial system.
Reuters reported that during a press conference in Seoul earlier this month, Governor Sang-dai expressed concerns about a won-pegged stablecoin, despite not opposing it. He noted that such a stablecoin could unintentionally facilitate the exchange of won for USD. Sang-dai added that this trend could negatively impact South Korea's currency and hinder the central bank's monetary management strategies.

Crypto markets are bracing for continued short-term volatility, heavily influenced by macro conditions and geopolitical developments, particularly the US-Iran situation. Traders are warning of a potential drop to US$95,000, with some even anticipating US$92,000, as only 3 percent of newer Bitcoin investors are currently profitable.
Despite immediate concerns, analysts remain constructive on Bitcoin's long-term resilience. Growing structural demand from public entities is solidifying Bitcoin's role as a strategic reserve. Longer-term metrics suggest 2025 could be the last bullish leg of this cycle, potentially driving Bitcoin prices north of US$200,000.
Over the weekend, Bitcoin fell below the US$100,000 mark for the first time since May following US President Donald Trump’s announcement that the US had bombed three of Iran’s main nuclear facilities.
The airstrikes, which reportedly targeted Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, heightened investor risk aversion, triggering over US$1 billion in liquidations across crypto markets. Derivatives data from Coinglass shows that US$915 million of long positions and US$109 million worth of shorts were wiped out.
Ethereum (ETH) closed at US$2,308.07, a 6 percent increase over the past 24 hours. Its lowest valuation on Monday was US$2,206.39, and its highest valuation was US$2,312.59, minutes before the closing bell.
Crypto investor Anthony Pompliano has unveiled a new Bitcoin treasury company, ProCap Financial, via a merger with Columbus Circle Capital I, a special purpose acquisition company.
The venture will hold up to US$1 billion in Bitcoin, and aims to follow in the footsteps of Michael Saylor's Strategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), a software firm turned crypto juggernaut.
ProCap has already raised US$500 million in equity and secured a US$250 million convertible note in what Pompliano has called the largest-ever raise for a treasury-focused crypto firm.
Unlike traditional holdings strategies, ProCap intends to actively generate revenue from its Bitcoin through lending, derivatives and financial services.
Tokyo-based Metaplanet (TSE:3350,OTCQX:MTPLF) has added 1,111 BTC to its reserves, spending roughly US$117 million during a weekend dip sparked by US-Iran tensions.
The firm purchased the Bitcoin at an average price of US$105,681 per coin, increasing its total holdings to 11,111 BTC valued at over US$1.1 billion. Metaplanet has embraced a bold Bitcoin-first treasury approach, positioning itself as Asia’s Strategy equivalent in the corporate crypto playbook.
Cryptocurrency exchange OKX is reportedly considering an initial public offering (IPO) in the US, according to an interview the Information conducted with an executive from the firm on Sunday (June 22).
“We will absolutely consider an IPO in the future,” Haider Rafique, chief marketing officer, told the outlet, without providing a potential launch date. “If we go public, it would likely be in the U.S.”
The exchange resumed operations in the US in April after the US Department of Justice found that it had actively pursued US customers without the required license. OKX pleaded guilty to one count of operating an unlicensed money transmitting business in February and agreed to pay over US$500 million in penalties.
Sequans Communications (NYSE:SQNS), an IoT semiconductor developer, is planning a US$384 million capital raise for a strategic Bitcoin treasury. This move is one of the latest in a growing trend of companies using Bitcoin as a reserve asset, which crypto analyst Adam Back has dubbed the “new ALT SZN for speculators."
The company issued a press release announcing the endeavor on Monday.
The raise includes US$195 million in equity and US$189 million in convertible debentures. The company is also partnering with Swan Bitcoin for its Bitcoin treasury management. CEO Georges Karam said this reflects “strong conviction in bitcoin as a premier asset and a compelling long-term investment.”
Payments giant Fiserv (NYSE:FISV) is entering the stablecoin market with FIUSD, a new digital dollar offering aimed at thousands of main street banks. The platform will allow Fiserv’s banking clients — estimated at 3,000 institutions — to launch their own branded stablecoins or integrate FIUSD into their operations.
Built on top of Fiserv’s existing payments infrastructure, the platform will be interoperable with major blockchains and other stablecoins, including Circle’s (NYSE:CRCL) USDC and Paxos.
The platform is set to go live by the end of the year.
In a statement sent to Cointelegraph on Monday morning, a representative from Canaan (NASDAQ:CAN), a tech firm primarily known for designing and producing application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) for Bitcoin mining, said it “has successfully completed a pilot production run in the US.” Canaan also announced the discontinuation of its artificial intelligence semiconductor business in what it said is “a strategic realignment aimed at sharpening its focus.”
“I believe that doubling down on our core strengths in crypto infrastructure and Bitcoin mining is the most strategic path forward for Canaan,” said Nangeng Zhang, chairman and CEO of Canaan.
