H100 Eyes Strategic Bitcoin Acquisition to Triple its BTC Holdings and Expand Institutional Scale

H100 Group AB (H100), the Stockholm-based publicly listed bitcoin treasury company, announced a letter of intent (LOI) to acquire Norwegian bitcoin-focused firms Moonshot AS and Never Say Die AS. 

The move, if completed, would roughly triple H100’s holdings to around 3,500 BTC, positioning the company among Europe’s largest listed bitcoin treasury firms and enhancing its institutional profile, according to a press release seen by Bitcoin Magazine. 

Currently holding 1,051 BTC, the company would add the target companies’ combined 2,450 BTC through the transaction. 

The acquisition is structured as a bitcoin-for-bitcoin exchange, meaning ownership in the combined entity will be determined solely by the number of BTC contributed.

This preserves the existing shareholders’ exposure per share while significantly expanding the company’s balance sheet. The deal is set up as an all-share transaction with no cash consideration, consistent with H100’s strategy of bitcoin-based mergers and acquisitions.

The move comes on the heels of H100’s January announcement regarding its combination with Switzerland-based Future Holdings AG, also a bitcoin treasury company, highlighting the firm’s ongoing effort to consolidate institutional-scale bitcoin holdings in Europe.

H100’s backing

Both acquisitions have backing from Adam Back, the British cryptographer and co-founder of Blockstream, reinforcing the network of experienced bitcoin investors involved in the transactions.

Chairman Sander Andersen emphasized the industrial rationale for the deal, citing scale, credibility, and access to capital markets as increasingly important for publicly listed bitcoin firms. 

“This transaction would significantly strengthen H100 in all these areas,” Andersen said, noting that the acquisition aligns with H100’s ongoing capital markets and M&A strategy while leaving its listing structure and core operations unchanged.

The target companies bring more than just bitcoin holdings. Moonshot AS and Never Say Die AS are led by seasoned professionals including CEO Eirik Grøttum, a former systematic trader and asset manager, and CIO Peter Warren, a hedge fund veteran with extensive experience across equities, derivatives, and FX markets. 

Together with founder Geir Harald Hansen, the pioneer behind the Bitminter BTC mining pool, the Norwegian teams bring operational expertise and technology capabilities expected to complement H100’s treasury management and capital markets activities.

Following completion, the company will remain the listed parent company. Management and board positions are expected to include representatives from both H100 and the acquired firms, ensuring continuity of existing leadership while integrating new expertise.
