Nativo Resources Embraces Digital Assets in Strategic Shift
Nativo Resources plc (LON:NTVO), a gold-focused mining company, is making headlines with the announcement of its new Digital Asset Treasury Policy. As the company prepares to restart operations at the Tesoro Gold Concession in Peru, it will begin allocating part of its free cash flow and capital raised through future fundraising into Bitcoin (BTC). This move positions Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset on the company’s balance sheet.
The company believes the combination of gold and Bitcoin provides a strong hedge against inflation. With gold’s historical stability and Bitcoin’s fixed supply and decentralized nature, the two assets together create a unique, diversified approach to preserving value. Bitcoin’s low correlation to traditional financial markets further strengthens its appeal as a complementary asset.
Strategic Partners Ensure Secure Bitcoin Integration
To ensure the safe and secure implementation of this new treasury policy, Nativo Resources has partnered with Copper.co, a leading provider of institutional-grade custody and settlement solutions. In addition, Nemean Services will support the company in digital asset security, ensuring that holdings are protected with industry-best practices.
Christian Yates, Executive Chair of Nativo Resources, emphasized that this strategic move is about more than just diversification. “We believe this future-proofs our treasury and creates long-term value for shareholders in an evolving global economic landscape,” Yates stated.
Beyond holding Bitcoin as a treasury asset, the company also sees potential use in crypto for transactions with counterparties. This step could offer increased financial flexibility while allowing Nativo to remain focused on its core business: gold mining, ore processing, and tailings recovery.
With this bold step, Nativo Resources joins a growing number of companies recognizing the value of combining traditional hard assets like gold with the emerging digital strength of Bitcoin.
