ZIGChain, the Layer 1 blockchain designed for compliant and scalable digital asset management, has announced a decisive step for its ecosystem: BTCS S.A., among the leading Digital Asset Treasury Companies (DATCOs) in Europe, has allocated 30 million dollars of its digital treasury to actively participate in the network’s development.
This operation marks a significant turning point in how public companies approach the blockchain world, moving from passive digital asset management to direct and productive participation.
BTCS: from holding to activating the digital treasury
BTCS’s approach stands out for its Active Treasury model. Instead of merely holding digital assets statically, the company will directly invest in $ZIG, the native token of ZIGChain, by purchasing it on the open market and managing validator nodes on the network. This strategy allows BTCS to:
- Generate returns through staking
- Strengthen network security
- Contribute to the development of the ecosystem
According to Abdul Rafay Gadit, co-founder of ZIGChain, “The participation of BTCS demonstrates how institutional treasuries are evolving from mere asset holders to truly active players.
By managing validator nodes and interacting directly with the ZIGChain infrastructure,
BTCS shows how compliant and yield-generating participation can be perfectly aligned with institutional standards.”
Even Marlena Lipińska, CEO of BTCS S.A., emphasizes the importance of this choice:
“Our Active Treasury model aims to create value through participation, strengthening the very networks in which we invest and maintaining a diversified and compliant strategy.”
A Growing Trend: DATCOs as a New Capital Class
The investment by BTCS reflects a broader trend in the sector: while venture capital funding in the crypto world has decreased by 59% year-on-year, DATCOs are emerging as a new class of capital.
These public companies do not just invest, but actively participate in blockchain infrastructures, generating yield through node management and staking, without resorting to speculative leverage or counterparty risks.
This evolution is also favored by the growing attention of regulators towards transparency and on-chain accountability.
In this context, ZIGChain stands out for its compliance-oriented design and support for the integration of real-world assets (RWA), thus becoming a natural partner for institutions seeking to combine yield, security, and compliance.
ZIGChain: a blockchain serving inclusion and real finance
Founded with the goal of democratizing access to investment opportunities, ZIGChain allows developers and institutions to launch scalable and compliant protocols for the tokenization of funds, profit sharing, and the management of real assets.
The ZIGChain ecosystem includes:
- Zignaly, a regulated social investment platform that connects over 600,000 users to more than 150 professional portfolio managers.
- Zamanat, the world’s first platform for the tokenization of real assets compliant with Shariah, which combines ethical finance and programmable blockchain infrastructure.
Thanks to these solutions, ZIGChain positions itself as a reference infrastructure for creating real and inclusive value, regardless of the users’ income level, technical expertise, or geographical location.
Strategic Partnerships and Ecosystem Growth
BTCS’s investment comes at a time of strong expansion for ZIGChain, which recently launched its own mainnet in June and formed partnerships with leading entities such as Apex Group, Truleum, and Valereum.
These collaborations are aimed at building regulated infrastructures for the management of real-world assets in the MENA region and beyond, further strengthening ZIGChain’s position as a reference platform for the integration between traditional and digital finance.
A New Paradigm for Corporate Treasuries
The Active Treasury model adopted by BTCS represents a radical shift from traditional practices. By actively participating in blockchain networks, companies can:
- Generate sustainable yield
- Contribute to the decentralization and security of networks
- Increase asset liquidity
- Promote transparency and accountability
This strategy aligns with the demands of a market increasingly focused on compliance and sustainability, offering companies an innovative way to enhance their digital treasury while simultaneously strengthening the infrastructures on which the future of finance is based.
Conclusions: Towards a More Active and Responsible Institutional Finance
The allocation of 30 million dollars by BTCS in ZIGChain marks a turning point for the sector of digital asset treasury companies and for the entire blockchain ecosystem.
This investment not only strengthens the security and liquidity of the network, but also represents a virtuous model of how public companies can become active protagonists in financial innovation, combining yield, compliance, and sustainable development.
