Norwegian Exchange Becomes First Publicly Traded Bitcoin Treasury Firm

Norwegian Block Exchange (NBX) has achieved a significant milestone, becoming the first publicly listed company in Norway to incorporate Bitcoin as a treasury asset. The move signals a growing trend of institutional adoption within the country’s financial markets, with NBX utilizing its Bitcoin holdings for collateral and operational efficiency. 6.0 Bitcoin are currently held by NBX, with plans to increase this holding to 10 BTC by June. This Bitcoin will be used to support the issuance of USDM (a MiCA-compliant stablecoin on the Cardano blockchain), generate yield across both ecosystems, and create a new financial product offering for investors.
