Hamak Strategy Limited (LSE: HAMA / OTCQB: HASTF) a company combining traditional gold exploration in Africa with A Digital Asset Treasury Management strategy, is pleased to announces the acquisition of Bitcoin and gold bullion as part of its broader capital allocation and treasury management strategy. The Bitcoin was purchased via its FCA-regulated digital asset exchange broker and custodian, Archax. The gold was purchased via a Hamak Corporate Account held with the world’s largest online investment gold service, BullionVault UK (a member of the London Bullion Market Association).

Highlights

  • Number of Bitcoin Purchased (on 3 January 2026) : 3 Bitcoin
  • Average purchase price: £66,567 per Bitcoin
  • Total amount purchased: £199,703
  • Total Bitcoin held: 23
  • 1.65kg Gold purchased (on 27 January 2026)
  • Total amount of gold purchased (including buying commissions): £195,360

Executive Director Karl Smithson commented:

“We believe the holding of both physical gold assets and Bitcoin, offers a distinctive differentiation in the junior resources sector, providing a blend of traditionally defensive and digitally disruptive exposure.

“We aim to rapidly develop our hybrid treasury strategy, which the Board believes will deliver low correlation to conventional equity market cycles while offering clear potential upside from long-term structural trend.

“This initiative forms part of a more comprehensive treasury framework designed to incorporate strategic reserves, liquidity tools, and non-dilutive value protection mechanisms for shareholders.”

For the purposes of UK MAR, the person responsible for arranging release of this announcement on behalf of Hamak is Karl Smithson, Executive Director.

About Hamak Strategy Limited

Hamak Strategy Limited (LSE: HAMA / OTCQB: HASTF) is a UK listed company focussed on gold exploration in Africa and with a strategy of pursuing an appropriate and compliant BTC/ crypto treasury management policy.

Important Notice

The Company maintains some of its treasury reserves and surplus cash in Bitcoin, a form of cryptocurrency. The Company is not authorised or regulated by The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Bitcoin investments are generally not subject to regulation by the FCA or otherwise in the United Kingdom. Neither the Company nor investors in the Company’s shares are protected by the UK’s Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

However the FCA considers Bitcoin investments to be high-risk. The value of Bitcoin can go up as well as down, leading to fluctuations in the value of the Company’s Bitcoin holdings, and the Company may not be able to realise its Bitcoin holdings for the same amount it paid to acquire them, or even for the value the Company currently attributes to its Bitcoin positions.

The Company’s Board of Directors have identified the following risks in relation to the holding of Bitcoin, which are not exhaustive:

  • The value of Bitcoin can be highly volatile, with its value falling as quickly as it rises. Investors in Bitcoin must be prepared to lose all money invested.
  • The Bitcoin market is largely unregulated. There is a risk of losing money due to factors such as cyber-attacks, financial crime, and counterparty failure.
  • The Company may not be able to sell its Bitcoin at will. The ability to sell Bitcoin depends on various factors, including the supply and demand in the market at the relevant time. Operational failings such as technology outages, cyber-attacks, and comingling of funds could cause unwanted delays.
  • Cryptoassets carry a perception of fraud, money laundering, and financial crime.

An investment in the Company is not an investment in Bitcoin itself, but prospective investors in the Company are encouraged to conduct their own research before investing and should be aware that they will have indirect exposure to the high-risk nature of cryptoassets, including their volatility, and could therefore sustain large or total losses of their investment.
