“As the stablecoin market continues its explosive growth, Ethereum has emerged as the foundation of on–chain USD settlement and value transfer,” said Mr. Siguang Peng, CEO of BTCT. “By securing an initial $1 million ETH reserve today and with plans to scale that position we are proactively positioning ourselves for decentralized finance, stablecoin issuance, and asset tokenization. This strategic move strengthens our technological edge, enhances market confidence, and optimizes capital deployment.”

Key Drivers of BTCT’s Ethereum Reserve Strategy:
- Dominant Stablecoin Infrastructure: Over half of all major stablecoins—including USDT and USDC—operate on Ethereum, making it the centerpiece of decentralized USD issuance and settlement.
- High–Volume On–Chain Transactions: Stablecoin activity has pushed Ethereum’s on–chain transaction volume to levels approaching traditional financial rails, underscoring its growing importance in global payments and liquidity networks.
- Collateral and Security Dynamics: As decentralized finance and real–world asset tokenization expand, increased ETH staking and collateralization will further reduce circulating supply, reinforcing network security and value.
- Institutional Adoption: A number of mining and blockchain firms have already begun integrating ETH into their reserve portfolios, leveraging smart contracts for yield–generation, collateral, and cross–chain financial products.
- Regulatory and Technical Tailwinds: U.S. regulatory clarity, the forthcoming Pectra upgrade, and mature Layer–2 scaling solutions will significantly boost Ethereum’s throughput, cost–efficiency, and compliance readiness.
Looking Ahead
Building on its origins in large–scale crypto mining, BTCT is undergoing a strategic evolution from “hash–rate provider” to “on–chain financial infrastructure participant.” The Company intends to continuously augment its ETH holdings in alignment with market developments and network upgrades. BTCT believes that Ethereum, akin to “digital gold,” will remain indispensable—not only as a stablecoin settlement hub but also as a catalyst for decentralized payments, asset tokenization, and the next wave of global financial interoperability.
