BTCS Inc. (NASDAQ: BTCS) shares traded higher following the blockchain technology company's announcement that its liquid assets total approximately $242.2 million, primarily driven by its holding of 55,788 ETH. The company also revealed a new $10 million convertible note financing agreement with ATW Partners LLC, part of its "DeFi/TradFi Accretion Flywheel" strategy. CEO Charles Allen called BTCS "the most financially and operationally leveraged Ethereum play in public markets" [1].

The convertible notes carry a fixed conversion price of $13 per share, representing a 198% premium over the company's closing stock price of $6.57 on July 18, 2025. The notes have a two-year maturity, expiring on July 21, 2027, include a 5% original issue discount, and carry a 6% annual interest rate. As part of the financing, BTCS will also issue five-year warrants to purchase 879,375 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8 per share, a 122% premium to the recent closing price. The funding is expected to close by July 22, 2025 [1].

The company has raised $189 million year-to-date through a combination of at-the-market equity sales ($132 million), above-market convertible debt ($17 million), and DeFi-based borrowing ($40 million) as part of its strategy to optimize ETH exposure while managing dilution [1].

The positive strategic update and strong asset position are fueling investor optimism. BTCS's vertically integrated block-building and node operations are generating record revenue, and the company's execution of its hallmark DeFi/TradFi Accretion Flywheel strategy is further demonstrating its ability to maximize ETH exposure while minimizing shareholder dilution [1].
