UPDATE: BTCS Provides Update on the Growth of its Digital Asset Portfolio

Silver Spring, Maryland, July 06, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — (via Blockchain Wire) (OTCQB: BTCS) (“BTCS” or the “Company”), a digital asset and blockchain technology focused company, expanded its digital asset position to more than $1 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, an increase of more than 130% from the prior quarter.  Establishing positions in key digital assets is a core part of the Company’s business plan. Through timely purchases of Bitcoin and Ethereum, BTCS has substantially grown its digital asset portfolio over the past 12-months. The table below summarizes the Company’s digital asset ownership growth over the last four quarters:  

The fair market value of the Company’s digital asset position increased 285% to $1.02 million in the second quarter of 2020, primarily from the additional purchases of digital assets. The table below summarizes the fair market value of our digital assets over the past four quarters:  


The Company believes Bitcoin, Ethereum, and certain other digital assets are a great store of value and can be an effective hedge against monetary debasement in the wake of multi-trillion-dollar economic bailouts. Bitcoin has rallied over 80% from its March 2020 low, which the Company believes is driven by a flight to safety during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as well as the recent bitcoin halving on May 11, 2020.
While the Company believes Bitcoin and Ethereum are a great store of value, going forward, it plans to utilize its industry experience to further expand the Company’s digital asset holdings to diversify risk as it continues to grow its business. BTCS also plans to avoid digital assets which it believes may be classified as digital securities.About BTCS:BTCS is one of the first U.S. publicly traded companies focused on digital assets and blockchain technologies.
