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.

At the Blockchain Association Policy Summit, U.S. Senators Gillibrand and Lummis stated that the "Crypto Market Structure Bill" is expected to have its draft released by the end of this week, with revisions and hearings scheduled for next week. The bill aims to establish clear boundaries for digital assets by adopting a classification-based regulatory framework, clearly distinguishing between digital commodities and digital securities, and providing a pathway for exemptions for mature blockchains to ensure that regulation does not stifle technological progress. The bill also requires digital commodity trading platforms to register with the CFTC and establishes a joint advisory committee to prevent regulatory gaps or overlapping oversight.
