Vinanz has officially changed its name to London BTC Company to reflect its new focus and vision. In our view, the name change is a positive move as it more effectively conveys the purpose of the company to investors. Indeed, London BTC Company has rapidly grown its BTC treasury from the initial 16.9 BTC acquisition, facilitated by an institutional investor in early May 2025, to 64.03 BTC only 2 months later.
The company has pledged to grow its bitcoin position aggressively through fundraising and mining as part of its ambitious BTC treasury strategy. The last WRAP retail offer, announced less than a month ago, aimed for £1m and raised £3.03m. The proceeds were then used to grow the company's BTC holding. Another WRAP retail offer was announced yesterday and is live until July 3 at 4:30 PM, also aiming for £1m. We expect the target for this one to be exceeded as well, as retail investors flock to diversify their BTC holdings. The company's shares have surged recently, reflecting the growth of its BTC treasury.
The successes of London BTC Company's recent fundraises can be partly attributed to its LSE Main Market listing where it sports iconic ticker , giving it access to a much larger capital pool and wider array of fundraising structures than Aquis where most of its competitors are listed. is also actively pursuing a NASDAQ listing to expand its reach further.
For investors seeking to enhance their bitcoin exposure, adding London BTC Company alongside BTC/BTC ETF holdings can boost leverage while providing access to a dynamic LSE MM-listed BTC treasury company that is actively raising money and growing its BTC position. London BTC Company is targeting substantial market cap growth through direct purchase of BTC, as well as through its mining operations in North America. While the company is now focused on purchase of BTC, it is maintaining an impressive fleet of 700 mining machines in North America, giving it cheaper and more efficient access to bitcoin.
If London BTC Company continues on its current trajectory, we see further significant upside over the next 12-24 months.
