Smarter Web Company Shifts From Aquis to LSE Main Market

The Smarter Web Company (SWC) will leave the Aquis Exchange and begin trading on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange on February 3, 2026. The company listed on Aquis Exchange in April 2025. Now, just over nine months later, it plans a major step up. CEO Andrew Webley said the move is a key milestone for both the firm and its shareholders. He called it a turning point in the SWC company’s public market journey. The decision follows a period of sharp changes in the market for Bitcoin-focused treasury firms.

Bitcoin Strategy Continues Despite Tough Market

Since mid-2025, Bitcoin treasury stocks have faced pressure. Share prices fell as sentiment around Bitcoin weakened and market values compressed. Even so, the Smarter Web company kept building.

We listed The Smarter Web Company on Aquis on 25 April 2025, and this week marked our final full week of trading on that exchange. On Tuesday 3 February 2026 – just over nine months after our IPO – we will move to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange. This is a pivotal… https://t.co/aWrPq960wM

Andrew Webley said Bitcoin per share has risen by more than 50% since July. Total Bitcoin holdings have almost doubled in the same period. He added that these companies move in cycles. During strong phases, they must capture value. During weak phases, they must protect flexibility. This approach, he said, helped the firm stay focused while others slowed down.

Wider Capital Access and Index Path

The shift to the London Stock Exchange opens the door to more capital. Andrew Webley said the Main Market offers passive and active investment flows. Passive funds track indexes. He believes the Smarter Web company can join key indexes soon and aims for a path toward the FTSE 250 over time. Active capital comes from fund managers who choose where to invest. Many cannot buy shares listed on smaller venues like Aquis. A Main Market listing removes that barrier. This change, he said, expands the pool of investors who can support the business.

Shareholder Support and Next Steps

Shareholders strongly backed the move. At a recent meeting, about 99.5% of votes approved leaving Aquis. The SWC also raised about £520,000 through its ATM-style facility earlier this week. Andrew Webley said this tool is vital for firms that build Bitcoin treasuries because it allows steady funding over time. He also noted growing interest from large investors, even while Bitcoin prices remain volatile. Many now see price swings as an opportunity, not just a risk.

Next week, the Smarter Web company will open trading at the London Stock Exchange. Some community members and shareholders will attend the ceremony. Andrew Webley said he plans to share photos later so others can join the moment. He also confirmed meetings with institutions and plans for events in Las Vegas and Madrid later this year. He closed by thanking the community and said 2026 should bring the firm closer to its long term goal.
