Bitcoin News Today: PowerBank and Intellistake Partner to Tokenize Energy Assets and Hold Bitcoin

PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN; Cboe CA: SUNN, FSE: 103) and Intellistake Technologies Corp. (CSE: ISTK) have announced a strategic alliance aimed at integrating digital assets, Bitcoin, and tokenized real-world assets (RWA) into their operations. The partnership represents a significant step in bridging traditional energy infrastructure with the digital economy, leveraging decentralized AI and blockchain technology to reshape asset management and capital structures.

At the core of the agreement is a Digital Currency Treasury Program where PowerBank plans to accumulate Bitcoin as a long-term treasury reserve asset, while Intellistake will acquire digital currencies that support decentralized AI, such as the FET Token. Intellistake will also assist PowerBank in managing its Bitcoin holdings, providing security, custody, and treasury management services. This move aligns with a broader trend of institutional and sovereign adoption of tokenized assets and digital reserve strategies.

Beyond Bitcoin, the two companies are exploring the tokenization of PowerBank’s clean energy infrastructure, including solar and storage assets, to create new investment and financing opportunities. Tokenization, according to analysts, is expected to grow significantly, with forecasts suggesting the market cap for tokenized RWAs could reach $30 trillion by 2034, driven by advancements in blockchain and investor demand for real-time asset transparency [1].

“Tokenization is no longer a concept—it’s an inevitability,” said Jason Dussault, CEO of Intellistake. “By combining our expertise in digital asset custody with PowerBank’s energy platform, we are unlocking a new opportunity for the market.”

Dr. Richard Lu, CEO of PowerBank, emphasized that the partnership is not just about collaboration, but about leading a shift in how companies manage capital and assets. “As the world accelerates toward AI and clean energy, Bitcoin and tokenization are presenting new opportunities,” he stated.

The companies are currently evaluating the regulatory landscape for tokenization and will proceed only in compliance with applicable laws and agreements. The structure, assets, and timeline for tokenization are yet to be finalized. Additionally, the timing and value of Bitcoin purchases will depend on market conditions and business needs, with no purchases having been made as of this announcement.

The partnership also highlights a broader trend of energy firms integrating blockchain and digital assets into their financial strategies. PowerBank, a leader in clean energy infrastructure across Canada and the US, has developed over 100 megawatts of renewable projects and maintains a potential development pipeline of one gigawatt. Intellistake, meanwhile, specializes in connecting traditional capital markets with decentralized technologies, positioning itself as a key player in the digital asset space.

The companies are also updating their corporate governance by issuing shares to former and current directors of Solar Flow-Through Funds Ltd., part of their acquisition process. These issuances are subject to regulatory exemptions and will be governed by a statutory hold period.

The alliance underscores a growing intersection between energy, finance, and blockchain, with both firms seeking to leverage their strengths to lead market transformation. As they advance this initiative, PowerBank and Intellistake will continue to monitor and adapt to the evolving regulatory and market environment.
