Listed on the Aquis exchange under the ticker SWC, the company has undergone a strategic restructuring in recent months. Following its IPO in April, its shares have risen by nearly 20.000%, driven by the adoption of bitcoin as a reserve asset. Despite a recent 50% correction, the company’s market value has surpassed £1 billion (about $1,4 billion), surpassing traditional companies such as Aston Martin.
Founded with a focus on web design and digital marketing, Smarter Web Company began accepting payments in bitcoin in 2023. The most aggressive adoption of the crypto asset began in April of this year, as part of a 10-year plan that foresees organic growth and the use of bitcoin as a strategic asset to generate value for shareholders.
Today, Smarter Web Company is the largest corporate holder of bitcoin among those listed on the Aquis Exchange. Close behind are Phoenix Digital Assets with 250 BTC and Coinsilium with 43,11 BTC. About 10% of companies listed on the exchange already have exposure to bitcoin or plan to incorporate it into their reserves.
The company’s accumulation strategy is being advised by UTXO Management, led by David Bailey. The management firm also invested in Smarter Web Company before its IPO. Both Bailey and CIO Tyler Evans sit on the company’s board. UTXO is already working on similar initiatives with other cryptocurrency-exposed companies, such as Metaplanet and The Blockchain Group.
Even with institutional support, the company's board recognizes that investing in bitcoin may attract attention from regulatory bodies such as the FCA, which classifies this type of investment as high risk. Still, Smarter Web Company remains firm in its view that bitcoin could be a key player in the financial system of the future.
