All investors, including Chu, have agreed to a 180-day lock-up period from the closing date, reflecting a shared belief in the company’s trajectory and its focus on institutional Bitcoin exposure. The proceeds will primarily fund DDC’s Bitcoin treasury program, which aims to build a 10,000 BTC reserve and position the company among the world’s top public holders of the digital asset. Chu described the investment as “a strong endorsement of our vision and the growing importance of public Bitcoin treasuries,” adding that the partnership with established institutional investors provides both capital and “substantial strategic value.” I am excited to share our $124M equity raise, with participation from some of the most well regarded names in both trad-fi and crypto – PAG Pegasus Fund, OKG, and Mulana Investment. I am also investing $3M, because I love what we are building as a team and as a company.… https://t.co/TBsLIeWcDv — Norma @ DDC (@ddcnorma) October 8, 2025 The announcement follows a series of Bitcoin purchases that have steadily expanded DDC’s holdings over the past year. The company first unveiled its Bitcoin accumulation strategy in May , pledging to acquire 100 BTC immediately and 5,000 BTC within 36 months. By June 2025, it had increased its holdings to 138 BTC at an average purchase price of $78,582 per coin, representing an estimated $10.8 million in total value at the time. In the same month, DDC entered a strategic partnership with Web3 investment firm Animoca Brands to oversee and generate yield from Animoca’s Bitcoin reserves. Under the agreement, Animoca allocated up to $100 million worth of BTC for DDC to manage, further cementing DDC’s reputation as a specialized corporate Bitcoin treasury operator. @animocabrands has entered a partnership with @ddcbtc_ (DDC) to oversee Animoca’s Bitcoin holdings and generate yield from its reserves. #Bitcoin #Animoca https://t.co/XCV9Gj5Nrc — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) July 13, 2025 Norma Chu has described Bitcoin as both a store of value and a hedge against macroeconomic volatility, calling the company’s accumulation plan “a cornerstone of our long-term value creation strategy.” She said the dedicated Bitcoin treasury team and crypto-native advisory board would ensure a “disciplined and risk-aware” approach to BTC acquisitions. Bitcoin Treasuries Hit Record 3.9M BTC as DDC Pushes for Top 10 Spot The company’s financial momentum supports that confidence. DDC reported $37.4 million in revenue for 2024 , a 33% year-over-year increase, with gross margins rising from 25% to 28.4%. The performance was driven largely by U.S. strategic acquisitions and cost discipline. DDC’s expansion into Bitcoin mirrors earlier corporate moves by companies like Strategy and Metaplanet, which have turned crypto accumulation into long-term treasury strategies. Data from Bitcoin.net shows that 345 public companies collectively hold 3.9 million BTC in reserves, with the top 10 led by MicroStrategy’s 640,000 BTC and Marathon Holdings’ 52,850 BTC. Source: Bitcoin.net If DDC achieves its 10,000 BTC goal, it would likely join that top 10 list, placing it alongside major Bitcoin treasury players like Coinbase, CleanSpark, and Trump Media. Corporate interest in Bitcoin as a treasury asset continues to grow, with several global firms unveiling major accumulation strategies over recent months. Dutch crypto firm Amdax announced on October 7 that it had raised €30 million ($35 million) to launch Amsterdam Bitcoin Treasury Strategy (AMBTS), a dedicated entity aiming to acquire up to 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply. Co-founder Lucas Wensing called the initiative a “milestone” in advancing institutional Bitcoin adoption.
