KR1 ( (GB:KR1) ) just unveiled an announcement.
KR1 has disclosed details of its holding in Bitway, an open financial infrastructure platform that links onchain stablecoin and Bitcoin liquidity to institutional-grade yield and credit markets via its Bitway Earn, Bitway Lending and Bitway Ledger components. The company now holds 100,000,000 BTW tokens, valued at about US$1.7 million based on mid-April market prices, stemming from a US$300,000 pre-seed investment and subject to a three-year vesting schedule.
The position originated from KR1’s venture arm, and as the tokens progressively unlock after an initial 12‑month lock-up, the company plans to assess how to integrate Bitway into its technology and financial infrastructure operations. The update underscores KR1’s strategy of backing early-stage onchain infrastructure and highlights a significant unrealised gain that could enhance its digital asset portfolio and potentially deepen its role in institutional crypto yield and credit markets.
