Green Minerals Embraces Bitcoin Treasury to Hedge Inflation

Norwegian deep-sea mining company Green Minerals AS will launch a $1.2 billion financing round to build a Bitcoin treasury and protect its deep-sea mining projects from fiat volatility.

Context and Scale

On June 23 2025, Green Minerals AS announced the adoption of a Bitcoin Treasury Strategy to diversify its reserves away from traditional fiat currencies and protect against inflation and geopolitical uncertainty. The company began implementation with an initial 4 BTC purchase on June 25, marking the first step toward its 11,255 BTC goal. This target aligns with its first Hedge-Enabled Digital Strategy Model (HEDSM) under the Partnership for Responsible Production. Green Minerals will introduce a new KPI (Bitcoin per share) to track crypto value attributed to each share.

In this era of significant monetary expansion, maintaining a strong balance sheet is more critical than ever. Bitcoin’s decentralized, non-inflationary properties make it an attractive alternative to traditional fiat,

said Executive Chairman Ståle Rodahl.

The firm sees Bitcoin as a hedge against currency debasement while supporting its long-horizon capex for production equipment. There is a wider corporate shift in play: since August 2020, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has pioneered Bitcoin treasury allocations, and Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap filed for a $1 billion SPAC merger to form a new publicly listed BTC company.

Green Minerals’ treasury announcement sparked a 164% surge in its share price on Oslo Børs, briefly valuing the firm at NOK 123 million, and drew headlines when Executive Chairman Ståle Rodahl sold shares the next day. 

Key stats at a glance:

• Target raise: $1.2 billion for Bitcoin treasury
  
• Initial purchase: 4 BTC (~NOK 4.25 million)
  
• Share rally: +164% on Oslo Børs
  
• Industry peers: Strategy, ProCap Financial

Beyond treasury management, Green Minerals will apply blockchain to enhance supply-chain transparency, certify mineral origins and boost operational efficiency across its deep-sea mining value chain.

Stakeholder Communications: Transparent Updates and Reporting Strategy

Green Minerals commits to full transparency by issuing regular market updates on its Bitcoin treasury rollout. The company will publish milestone-driven press releases – from announcing its first BTC purchase to reporting periodic changes in its BTC per share (BTC/share) metric – ensuring investors track progress in real time.

To keep stakeholders informed, Green Minerals will align Bitcoin treasury disclosures with its quarterly financial reports and ESG filings. It will maintain a dedicated section on its website and in investor-relations materials, featuring a live dashboard of total BTC holdings, the evolving BTC/share KPI, and insights into blockchain pilot initiatives. Ad hoc announcements will cover critical developments, such as changes in acquisition pace or strategic partnerships with Bitcoin experts.

This reporting framework not only meets regulatory requirements under the Market Abuse Regulation and Norwegian Securities Trading Act but also builds investor confidence in the company’s blockchain integration. By delivering consistent, clear communications on its Bitcoin strategy, Green Minerals strengthens its credibility among shareholders, ESG analysts and the wider Web3 community. Stakeholders are invited to monitor forthcoming updates on the company’s official channels.
