The Smarter Web Company (AQUIS: SWC | OTCQB: TSWCF) announced that it has purchased an additional 275 Bitcoin for £21.88 million as part of its ongoing treasury strategy under “The 10 Year Plan.” This brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 1,275 BTC, valued at over £100 million at current market prices.

Bitcoin Strategy: From Payments to Core Reserve
The Smarter Web Company, which provides web development and online marketing services, began accepting Bitcoin as payment in 2023 and has embedded Bitcoin into its long-term financial strategy. “The Company believes that Bitcoin forms a core part of the future of the global financial system,” the company stated. It currently holds approximately £31 million in cash available for future Bitcoin purchases.
IPO and Investor Participation
In April 2025, the company launched its Bitcoin-focused “10 Year Plan,” establishing Bitcoin as a cornerstone of its long-term financial strategy. On April 25, 2025, The Smarter Web Company went public on the Aquis Stock Exchange Growth Market, raising up to £2 million through a mix of institutional and retail subscriptions. The IPO also featured retail participation via the Winterflood Retail Access Platform (WRAP), enabling UK investors to join with a minimum investment of 500 euros.
CEO Andrew Webley said: “I am looking forward to working with our advisors on evaluating the effectiveness and perhaps we can then inspire other UK companies to adopt a similar mechanism, as we have seen with our pioneering approach to treasury management using Bitcoin.”
Summary: Growing Trend of Bitcoin Corporate Treasury in the UK
The Smarter Web Company’s continued accumulation signals a growing acceptance of Bitcoin as a core corporate reserve asset, even in more regulated markets. Its extraordinary BTC yield of 31,263% reflects the volatility and timing advantage of early adoption. As more companies follow suit, Bitcoin’s role as a corporate treasury asset could expand further.
