Windtree Therapeutics announces plan for cryptocurrency treasury policy
Windtree Therapeutics (WINT) announced that its board has agreed that the company will create a cryptocurrency policy that will allow the company to accept cryptocurrency as an option for payment and also allow the company to hold the cryptocurrency as an asset.

These companies are interested in furthering a treasury strategy in conjunction with Windtree and its current diversified operations base.
