Mercurity Fintech to create Bitcoin reserve
MFH Unveils $800M Bitcoin Treasury Plan Amid Index Upgrade Prospects
Mercurity Fintech Holding Inc. (MFH) has announced an ambitious $800 million financing initiative to establish a Bitcoin treasury reserve, signaling a significant strategic shift toward digital asset accumulation.
The company plans to leverage blockchain-native custody, staking, and tokenized management services to both secure and generate yield from its Bitcoin holdings, reports Crypto News.
According to CEO Shi Qiu, the move is designed to “enhance balance sheet resilience” and position MFH as a key stakeholder in the future digital financial ecosystem. The treasury will be managed using institutional-grade custodial infrastructure and staking-enabled liquidity tools, creating new revenue channels through decentralized finance (DeFi) participation.
Alignment with growing corporate Bitcoin adoption
MFH joins a fast-growing cohort of public companies—such as MicroStrategy, Metaplanet, and GameStop—that are increasingly turning to Bitcoin as a strategic asset. The decision reflects broader market trends, with recent reports from Binance noting a rise in corporate balance sheet allocations to BTC amid persistent macroeconomic uncertainty and waning faith in fiat-denominated reserves.
MFH’s plan not only strengthens its crypto-native identity, but also adds credibility to Bitcoin’s emerging role as corporate treasury infrastructure, especially as companies seek alternatives to traditional capital preservation and growth strategies.
Index inclusion to enhance institutional visibility
In a parallel development, MFH is poised to be upgraded from the Russell Microcap Index to the Russell 3000® and Russell 2000® Indexes, pending final reconstitution later this month. The inclusion could significantly boost MFH’s visibility among institutional investors and passively managed index funds, enhancing liquidity and investor interest.
This dual momentum—strategic Bitcoin positioning and broader market recognition—places MFH at the intersection of financial innovation and capital markets evolution, as it reshapes its long-term role in the blockchain-driven financial landscape.
Recently we wrote that on Tuesday, Ukrainian lawmakers submitted bill No. 13356 to the Verkhovna Rada, proposing to amend the existing law “On the National Bank of Ukraine” to allow the NBU to hold cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin as part of the country’s official state reserves.
