The acquisition will be completed using a mix of Bitcoin and cash, with Know Labs deploying Goldeneye\u2019s 1,000 BTC payment as part of its treasury strategy. Investors in the company will gain \u201csignificant economic exposure to this highly attractive digital asset,\u201d Know Labs wrote in a press release.<\/p>\n
Know Labs is Greg Kidd\u2019s latest crypto-related venture. The co-founder and CEO of venture capital firm Hard Yaka has backed several crypto companies, including Ripple, Coinbase, Robinhood, Uphold, and Solana. He previously served in the Federal Reserve\u2019s payments division.<\/p>\n
His move to take a Bitcoin strategy approach may be inspired by Michael Saylor\u2019s Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, which has amassed a massive haul of BTC since first buying the asset in August 2020..\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\u201cI\u2019m thrilled to deploy a Bitcoin treasury strategy with the support of a forward-looking organization like Know Labs at a time when market and regulatory conditions are particularly favorable,\u201d Kidd said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Know Labs\u2019 Bitcoin holdings will account for 82% of its $128 million market cap once the BTC is added to the balance sheet. This will give the company a net asset value multiple of 1.22x, based on a BTC price of $105,000 at closing.<\/p>\n
Know Labs expects the transaction to close in Q3 2025, subject to shareholder approval and the finalization of customary closing conditions.<\/p>\n
