Sweden's H100 Group Rallies Another 30% After Raising $10M for Bitcoin Treasury Strategy
According to a Wednesday press release, the fundraising was split between SEK 69.65 million in two share issues and SEK 31.35 million in convertible loans.
The share issues saw participation from a mix of crypto investors and Nordic family offices. The convertible loans carry no interest and mature in five years. Investors can convert the loans into equity at SEK 1.75 per share.
H100 shares advanced another 30% in the Wednesday session, and have now gained nearly 400% since the firm's first BTC purchase on May 22.
This was the first tranche of a broader funding plan first announced earlier and could grow further in future rounds, the company said. H100's stated aim is to use the capital to bolster its BTC treasury strategy.
H100 Group, led by CEO Sander Andersen, is part of a growing trend of public firms raising funds via share and debt issuances to buy cryptocurrencies to their balance sheets, a playbook popularized by Michael Saylor's Strategy (MSTR).

Google to pay $36 million fine for anticompetitive deals in Australia
Google has agreed to pay a 55 million Australian dollar ($36 million) fine for signing anticompetitive deals with Australia's two largest telcos that banned the installation of competing search engines on some smartphones, the U.S. tech giant and Australia's competition watchdog said. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission said in a statement it had commenced proceedings in the Australian Federal Court on Monday against the Singapore-based Google Asia Pacific division. The court will decide whether the AU$50 million ($36 million) penalty is appropriate. Under the anticompetitive agreements, which were in place for 15 months until March 2021, Telstra and Optus only pre-installed Google Search on Android phones sold to customers. Other search engines were excluded. In return, the telcos received a share of the advertisement revenue Google generated from those customers. Google accepted that the agreements were likely to have the effect of 'substantially lessening competition,' the commission said. Google has also signed a court-enforceable undertaking that commits the company to removing certain pre-installation and default search engine restrictions from its contracts with Android phone manufacturers and telcos, the commission said. The tech company said in a statement: 'We're pleased to resolve the ACCC's concerns, which involved provisions that haven't been in our commercial agreements for some time.' Commissioner chair Gina-Cass Gottlieb said: 'Conduct that restricts competition is illegal in Australia because it usually means less choice, higher costs or worse service for consumers.' 'Importantly, these changes come at a time when AI search tools are revolutionising how we search for information, creating new competition,' Cass-Gottlieb added. Last year, Telstra, Optus and their smaller rival TPG agreed to court-enforceable undertakings with the commission that they would not renew or make similar deals with Google to limit search options. McGuirk writes for the Associated Press.
