Mercurity Fintech Unveils $800M Bitcoin Treasury Strategy, Aims for Russell 2000 Spot

Mercurity Fintech Unveils $800M Bitcoin Treasury Plan, Poised for Russell 2000 Inclusion

Mercurity Fintech Holding (MFH) is making a bold move into digital asset strategy with plans to raise $800 million to establish a bitcoin treasury, the company revealed Thursday.

According to its press release, the New York-based fintech firm will use the funds to acquire bitcoin, integrate it into blockchain-native custody infrastructure, and deploy it across tokenized treasury and staking platforms. The effort signals Mercurity’s intent to go beyond passive bitcoin holding and build an active, yield-generating reserve model.

“Bitcoin will become an essential component of the future financial infrastructure,” said CEO Shi Qiu. “We’re aligning our business to sit at the core of that transition.”

Financing Details Still Under Wraps

While the company outlined an ambitious roadmap, it has yet to disclose whether the $800 million will be raised through equity issuance, debt, or other financial instruments.

The announcement comes as Mercurity is set to be included in the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 indexes — potentially boosting visibility among institutional investors and index-linked funds.

A Broader Crypto Strategy in Motion

Mercurity’s business spans cryptocurrency mining (with a focus on bitcoin and filecoin), AI data center infrastructure (notably liquid cooling tech), and bespoke financial services for institutions and high-net-worth clients.

The company’s stock climbed 1.9% during regular trading hours Wednesday before retreating 2.84% in the after-market.

By layering its treasury strategy with blockchain-native financial tools, Mercurity appears to be positioning itself not just as a bitcoin holder — but as a next-gen financial platform built around the asset.
