Bitcoin News Today: Smarter Web Surpasses 2000 BTC Treasury After 27 Million Dollar Bitcoin Buy

Smarter Web, a UK-based web design company, has significantly expanded its Bitcoin treasury, acquiring 225 additional Bitcoin at an average price of £88,482 ($118,080) per unit, for a total outlay of £19.91 million ($26.57 million). This brings the company’s total Bitcoin holdings to 2,050 BTC, valued at £166.76 million ($222.54 million), making it the UK’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder and placing it among the top 25 public companies globally with Bitcoin reserves [1].

The company’s Bitcoin treasury acquisition is part of its 10-Year Plan, which aims to build a diversified corporate asset base while expanding its core web design and development services. Smarter Web has invested heavily in Bitcoin, with an average purchase price of £81,346 ($108,556) per Bitcoin across all acquisitions. The firm has also listed Bitcoin as an accepted form of payment, reinforcing its commitment to the asset as a key component of its long-term financial strategy [1].

The recent purchase was funded by a £19.7 million capital raise through the issuance of 6,057,914 new shares at approximately £3.25 each. The company has 7,942,086 additional shares available for a follow-on offering under similar terms, signaling its intent to continue funding further Bitcoin purchases. Smarter Web now plans to provide biweekly updates to shareholders to accelerate fund settlement and transparency [1].

The company’s Bitcoin portfolio has generated substantial returns, with year-to-date gains reaching 49,198 percent and a 30-day return of 224 percent. Currently, it holds approximately £500,000 in cash, which it can use for additional Bitcoin acquisitions [1]. The firm has acquired over 1,500 BTC in July alone, rapidly climbing the Bitcoin Treasuries rankings from 36th to the top 25 in under a month. CEO Andrew Webley has expressed ambitions to reach the top 20 public Bitcoin holders within weeks [1].

Smarter Web was originally established as a traditional web design and development firm but transitioned into a Bitcoin treasury-focused entity in 2023. It formalized its Bitcoin treasury policy in April 2025 and began accepting Bitcoin payments the same year. The company is listed on the Aquis Stock Exchange under the ticker SWC, following a reverse takeover in April 2025. Its shares surged nearly 20,000% shortly after announcing its Bitcoin treasury strategy, before retreating significantly to trade at £208.45 as of the latest update [1].

The firm’s growth strategy, supported by advisors David Bailey and UTXO Management, centers on combining digital services with Bitcoin holdings to create a unique corporate model. This approach positions Smarter Web as more than a technology company, aligning it with the future of financial innovation. Its 10-Year Plan includes both organic growth and strategic acquisitions to drive shareholder value and fund future expansion [1].

Smarter Web’s expansion into Bitcoin reflects a broader trend of corporate adoption of digital assets as a hedge against macroeconomic volatility and a store of value. As Bitcoin gains further institutional acceptance, companies are increasingly integrating it into their treasury strategies to capitalize on long-term gains and diversify their asset bases [1].
