Hey there, crypto enthusiasts! If you're keeping an eye on how big companies are dipping their toes—or should I say, stacking their sats—into Bitcoin, you've probably heard about The Smarter Web Company. This London-based tech firm, known for web design, development, and online marketing, just made waves on X with their latest announcement. They're not just talking the talk; they're walking the walk when it comes to Bitcoin adoption.
The Big Buy: 10 More BTC in the Bag
In a post that's got the crypto community buzzing, The Smarter Web Company revealed they've snapped up an additional 10 Bitcoin. That brings their total holdings to a whopping 2,660 BTC. For those new to the lingo, BTC is short for Bitcoin, the original cryptocurrency that's often called digital gold. This purchase is part of their "10 Year Plan," a long-term strategy focused on building a Bitcoin treasury to hedge against inflation and drive shareholder value.
The announcement, shared via a Regulatory News Service (RNS)—that's the official way UK-listed companies drop important updates—highlights some key metrics:
- Sats per Share: 682. Sats are satoshis, the smallest unit of Bitcoin (1 BTC = 100 million sats). This tells investors how much Bitcoin exposure they get per share.
- Quarter-to-Date BTC Yield: 1.70%. This measures the performance of their Bitcoin holdings over the quarter, showing a positive return.

Why This Matters in the Blockchain World
The Smarter Web Company isn't your typical crypto player. Listed on the AQUIS Stock Exchange in the UK, as well as OTCQB in the US ($TSWCF) and Frankfurt Stock Exchange ($3M8), they're positioning themselves as the UK's largest publicly traded company with Bitcoin on its balance sheet. According to data from Bitcoin Treasuries, they now rank among the top public companies holding BTC, even surpassing some American firms in their accumulation pace.
This move comes hot on the heels of other buys. Just last week, they grabbed $12.1 million worth of Bitcoin, lifting their holdings significantly as reported by Yahoo Finance. And earlier in the year, they raised £29.3 million specifically to fuel this strategy via Nasdaq.
What's driving this? CEO Andrew Webley (or Smith, depending on the source—looks like there might be a mix-up in reports) has been vocal about Bitcoin's potential. In a recent statement shared on Facebook via CoinDesk, he claimed Bitcoin treasury companies could become some of the most valuable in the world. They're even eyeing acquisitions of competitors to scoop up discounted BTC and aiming for a FTSE listing according to Cointelegraph.
In a broader sense, this reflects a growing trend where corporations treat Bitcoin as a reserve asset, much like MicroStrategy in the US. For blockchain practitioners and meme token fans alike, it underscores how mainstream adoption of BTC could stabilize the entire crypto ecosystem, potentially spilling over into altcoins and memes by increasing overall market liquidity and confidence.
Community Reactions and What's Next
The X post has racked up over 55,000 views, with replies pouring in from excited holders. Comments range from "Nice start to the day" to cheers about the relentless stacking. One user highlighted the new sats-per-share metric, which adds transparency for investors.
Looking ahead, The Smarter Web Company seems poised for more. Their bio proudly states they're pioneering a Bitcoin Treasury Policy in the UK, focusing on organic growth and acquisitions. If Bitcoin's price continues its upward trajectory—hovering around record highs in 2025—this could translate to massive gains for shareholders.
If you're into meme tokens, think about how such corporate buys could inspire similar strategies in decentralized projects. After all, Bitcoin's success often paves the way for the wild world of memes.
