This move marks the Company’s first foray into digital asset investment and reflects a proactive approach to value creation and balance sheet optimisation.
Hamak Gold’s Twin Bet: West African Discovery Meets Bitcoin Treasury Pivot
To facilitate this strategy, Hamak Gold has partnered with Archax, the first FCA-regulated digital asset exchange, broker, and custodian, which will also support the Company’s Bitcoin Treasury Strategy.
Highlights
· Number of Bitcoin Purchased: 20 Bitcoin
· Average purchase price: £88,569 per Bitcoin
· Total amount purchased: £1,771,380
· Strategic partnership with Archax
The Company believes that holding both physical gold assets and digital assets such as Bitcoin offers a strong differentiation in the junior resources sector, providing a blend of traditionally defensive and digitally disruptive exposure. This hybrid strategy is intended to deliver low correlation to conventional equity market cycles while offering potential upside from long-term structural trends.
The initiative forms part of a more comprehensive treasury framework designed to incorporate strategic reserves, liquidity tools, and non-dilutive value protection mechanisms for shareholders.
Nick Thurlow, Executive Chairman of Hamak Gold Ltd, commented:
“We are pleased to be delivering on the initial plan we announced to the market just a few weeks ago. We’re excited to partner with Archax, the premier UK-regulated crypto trading and custody firm. We will also continue to strengthen our team through making further high-level appointments that will bring the necessary expertise for us to execute our corporate strategy and further enhance shareholder value.”
Graham Rodford, CEO and Co-Founder of Archax, commented:
“We are pleased to be supporting Hamak Gold in their new strategic direction and digital asset activities. Bitcoin’s fixed supply of 21 million units is often cited as a distinguishing feature by market participants seeking alternatives to inflation-prone fiat currencies-complementing gold’s long-standing role as a store of value. At Archax, we remain focused on enabling institutional access to both traditional and digital asset markets through regulated, infrastructure-grade solutions.”
