Stock Surges Dramatically by 150% in a Single Day Following Company's Announcement of Bitcoin Asset Holdings

Volatile Day for Norwegian Block Exchange After Announcing Bitcoin Purchase

In a surprising move, Norwegian cryptocurrency exchange, Norwegian Block Exchange (NBX), reported an astonishing 150% surge in its shares after announcing plans to invest in Bitcoin!

In a press release, NBX disclosed its intentions to accumulate Bitcoin as a treasury asset, starting with the acquisition of six Bitcoin. This strategic move is expected to grow to around 10 Bitcoin by the end of this month.

"As part of our initial allocation, we have secured six Bitcoin, and our aim is to expand this to approximately 10 within the month. This will allow us to begin a limited proof-of-concept.” explained a spokesperson for NBX.

The company intends to utilize these Bitcoin holdings as collateral to issue USDM, a stablecoin on the Cardano blockchain. The ultimate objective is to generate profits across both the Bitcoin and USDM ecosystems.

"We confirm that we will neither sell this Bitcoin nor engage in any shorting activities. We will also divert the proceeds towards the purchase of additional Bitcoin." revealed the spokesperson.

The Norwegian exchange views Bitcoin as an increasingly integral part of the global financial infrastructure, with the launch of a Bitcoin treasury serving dual purpose—enhancing operational efficiency and attracting investors seeking Bitcoin exposure.

On the day of the announcement, NBX shares skyrocketed from a low of 0.021 euros ($0.024) on June 2nd to an impressive 0.053 euros ($0.060) on June 3rd.

Established in 2018, NBX has been at the forefront of driving digital asset adoption, most notably by launching the world's first credit card that rewards users with Bitcoin for each transaction.
