Verb Technology's recent move is quite aggressive, as a publicly listed company in the US, it has directly secured $558 million in PIPE private placement financing, which is a significant amount.
More importantly, they plan to rename themselves to TON Strategy Co., which clearly indicates an all-in approach on TON, aiming to become the first listed company with TON as its core reserve asset, a pretty bold strategy.
The financing round is priced at $9.51 per share, led by Kingsway Capital, with over 110 institutions and players from the crypto space joining in, showing a high level of acceptance.
The primary use of the funds is quite straightforward: to buy Toncoin (TON), and then earn returns through staking, a simple and direct logic, targeting the digital asset landscape.
This move has a distinct identity, as a publicly listed company bets on a single blockchain's token, whether it can navigate the future depends on TON's performance itself, making it worth watching for follow-ups. $TON
