BTCS Growth Strategy, Crypto Portfolio Up 80% in January
The BTCS crypto portfolio increased from approximately $4 million to $7 million in January alone, up 80%, mostly due to management’s well-timed investments in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).
In fact, with the newly raised capital, the Company recently added to its portfolio of cryptocurrencies with purchases of both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Its growth strategy is focused on three areas: (1) Strategic purchases of digital assets to continue to increase the value of its crypto portfolio; (2) making strategic accretive acquisitions of innovative technologies in the crypto space; (3) developing a unique data analytics platform that would allow crypto investors to track crypto holdings for performance metrics and tax purposes. With this innovative platform, investors would be able to analyse not only their own performance data, but they could also follow and shadow the performance of other crypto investors. The plan is to make this a subscription based service in which investors can follow and shadow traders with a proven track record of performance.
Management Aligned With Shareholders
Not only did management invest $1.1 million in the recent financing, the CEO was also granted 2 million restrictive stock units which are only earned upon an uplisting to the NASDAQ or NYSE. CEO Charles Allen, commented: “My interests are totally aligned with investors. I have made a considerable investment in the Company.”
He also added, “I believe the cryptocurrency space is still in its infancy and there is enormous upside for those who invest in Companies like BTCS. Moreover, at some point we intend to uplist our stock to either the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ stock exchange. An uplisting to a national stock exchange will give us greater access to capital and further propel our growth opportunities.”
