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.

AI Capital Expenditure Faces a Dilemma: Accelerating Puts Pressure on Cash Flow, Slowing Down Undermines the Growth Narrative
Nomura Securities believes that the AI investment narrative is mired in an internal contradiction: if hyperscale cloud providers accelerate capital expenditures, their free cash flow will continue to be drained, raising doubts about the sustainability of financing; if they slow down, it would indicate a loss of confidence in AI demand and profitability expectations. Both paths lead to sell-offs. The crowded long positions accumulated during the AI agent boom in September have triggered large-scale stop-losses under negative catalysts, spreading to US Treasury bonds, exchange rates, and commodity markets, resulting in systemic deleveraging.

The time window is extremely tight—according to SEC regulations, the S-1 filing must be submitted by next week at the latest, and prediction markets estimate the probability of a listing within the year at around 80%. The sell-off in the AI sector has cast a shadow over the listing prospects, and the previous plan to go public in September has already fallen through. Several market participants say that Anthropic may face pressure to delay its listing, but some analysts point out that the company's urgent need for capital may drive it to stick to the original plan.
