Andrew Webley, CEO of The Smarter Web Company (SWC), has reaffirmed the firm’s commitment to its long-term Bitcoin treasury strategy, despite recent market volatility. Bitcoin recently dipped to around $84,000, and sentiment across the sector has weakened, but Webley emphasized that SWC’s strategic outlook remains unchanged.
SWC Shares Fall Below Treasury Value
Webley acknowledged that SWC’s share price has fallen below the value of its Bitcoin holdings, trading at a notable discount to its treasury assets. He described this as a reflection of unusually pessimistic market sentiment, rather than any underlying issue with the company’s fundamentals.
Webley’s comments aim to reassure shareholders that SWC remains steadfast in its Bitcoin strategy, focusing on long-term growth rather than reacting to short-term market fluctuations.
Andrew Webley Reaffirms SWC’s Commitment to Bitcoin Amid Market Volatility
Andrew Webley, CEO of The Smarter Web Company (SWC), emphasized that the firm continues to hold the largest Bitcoin treasury of any UK public company. He reiterated his belief that Bitcoin remains “the best asset the world has ever seen,” even as newer investors struggle with the emotional swings that accompany sharp corrections. Webley reminded shareholders that volatility is part of the journey, and he highlighted SWC’s strong fundamentals as a solid foundation for future growth.
Disciplined Capital Strategy
Since listing on the Aquis Exchange in April 2025, SWC has maintained a disciplined approach to capital raising. Webley praised the company’s subscription agreement—a version of an ATM facility—which allows SWC to raise small amounts of capital efficiently. He contrasted this with other firms in the Bitcoin treasury space that he views as taking more careless approaches. By combining a structured treasury strategy with a functioning operating business, SWC aims to protect long-term shareholder value. He also highlighted progress in building SWC’s brand, website, and operational roadmap.
Growing Engagement With UK Institutions
Webley noted that the UK institutional environment has gradually become more receptive to companies holding Bitcoin strategically. Over the past six months, SWC has engaged with a growing number of traditional investors. While institutional adoption still lags retail interest, Webley emphasized that market volatility has not slowed these conversations and expects the long-term opportunity to grow as education improves.
Looking Ahead
In the coming weeks, SWC will focus on key projects that cannot yet be disclosed. Webley plans to reduce in-person appearances to dedicate more time to strategic execution, which he believes will create shareholder value. The company’s General Meeting on December 2 will allow shareholders to vote on upcoming proposals, and Webley encouraged full participation.
Despite a challenging week for both Bitcoin and SWC shares, Webley closed with confidence, reaffirming that SWC’s mission, strategy, and commitment to Bitcoin remain fully intact as the company continues to build for the long term.
