What financing methods were used for the $12.6 million purchase—cash on hand, debt issuance, or equity dilution?

The press release you referenced only discloses that Empery Digital Inc. purchased an additional 110 BTC for a total of $12.6 million and that its total Bitcoin holdings now exceed 3,913 BTC with an aggregate purchase price of about $460 million.

However, the release does not specify how the $12.6 million purchase was financed. It does not mention whether the company used:

  • Cash on hand (e.g., existing cash balances or cash equivalents),
  • Debt issuance (e.g., a new loan, bond issuance, or other borrowing), nor
  • Equity dilution (e.g., issuing new shares, convertible securities, or other equity‑based financing).

Since the article does not provide any details about the financing structure, we cannot determine from the provided information which of those financing methods—if any—were used to fund the $12.6 million purchase. To obtain a definitive answer, you would need to consult additional disclosures (e.g., the company’s SEC filings, a more detailed press release, or a conference‑call transcript) where Empery Digital may have disclosed the financing source.
