This $528 million capital commitment from respected investors across both traditional finance and digital assets is a powerful mandate to pursue our bold global Bitcoin accumulation strategy. Our vision is clear: we are building the world’s most valuable corporate Bitcoin treasury.”

- $26 Million PIPE Investment:
DDC will issue up to 2.4 million Class A common shares at an average price of $10.30 per share to investors including Animoca Brands, Kenetic Capital, and QCP Capital. These shares will be subject to a 180-day lock-up period. - $300 Million Convertible Bonds & $2 Million Private Placement:

Anson Funds has committed to a $200 million equity facility, enabling DDC to raise future funds flexibly to support strategic Bitcoin purchases.
Positioning as a Leading Public Bitcoin Treasury
With this new capital, DDC aims to join the ranks of the largest public holders of Bitcoin, alongside names like MicroStrategy, Tesla, and Block.
“The investment from Anson Funds and our PIPE participants validates the growing importance of Bitcoin on corporate balance sheets,” CEO Chu emphasized.

“My focus is on building our Bitcoin treasury and delivering consistent and attractive BTC-denominated returns to our shareholders. DDC is being positioned as the premier publicly listed vehicle for investors seeking pure Bitcoin exposure.”
Conclusion
DDC’s $528 million raise for Bitcoin investment is a clear signal that Bitcoin is increasingly viewed as a strategic asset not just by individuals, but also by large-scale public companies. As the digital asset market matures, moves like this from DDC may lay the groundwork for a new wave of institutional-grade Bitcoin investment at the corporate level.
