Antalpha Announces Strategic Investment in Tether Gold and Expansion into New Lending Verticals

Antalpha (NASDAQ: ANTA) has announced significant strategic initiatives to enhance its treasury plan and expand its product offerings.

Antalpha (NASDAQ:ANTA), a leading fintech platform serving the Bitcoin mining ecosystem, today announced several strategic initiatives to strengthen its treasury plan and expand its product offering. The Company plans to invest up to US $40 million in Tether Gold (XAUt) at market price by June 30, 2026. This allocation will serve as a hedge against macroeconomic volatility, diversify the Company's institutional collateral base, and enable stable-value lending solutions for clients during periods of market uncertainty. The Company believes that XAUt presents strong strategic value for institutional asset allocation, particularly in its potential to withstand crypto market cycles and support diverse financial applications. XAUt will be a cornerstone collateral asset in Antalpha's loan structure, allowing the Prime platform to expand its financing business with improved resilience and greater stability.

Antalpha plans to acquire XAUt and secure such digital assets to obtain funding for its lending operation. In line with this strategy, the Company's product and risk management teams are jointly upgrading its MPC capabilities and account features on the Antalpha Prime platform. Additionally, the Company plans to launch a dedicated portal on its website to provide nearly real-time information on XAUt and the corresponding underlying physical gold reserves, enhancing asset transparency and client confidence.

Antalpha remains focused on its core lending business and is committed to developing scalable financing solutions for different business lines with long-term growth potential. In addition to accepting Bitcoin and mining machines as collateral for its crypto financing, the Company plans to expand its addressable market by accepting new forms of collateral, including XAUt and GPU for AI compute, to build a more flexible and scalable digital asset lending business. In addition, we plan to expand our business relationship with Northstar and enable them to provide Ethereum margin loans on the Antalpha Prime platform. Antalpha plans to broaden its business lines to include:

*
