Thumzup Media Embraces Crypto-Focused Strategy

Thumzup Media, a former social media and ad tech firm, is transforming its business model to focus on cryptocurrency. The company's new strategy combines large-scale cryptocurrency mining and the strategic accumulation of digital assets, aiming for scalability, energy efficiency, and treasury diversification.

The heart of Thumzup's new strategy is its industrial-scale Bitcoin mining infrastructure in the U.S. The company is also acquiring advanced mining equipment and Dogehash Technologies, a leader in Dogecoin and Litecoin mining, to strengthen its footprint in utility-scale mining of Scrypt-algorithm assets. This acquisition will rebrand Thumzup towards becoming a major player in mining Scrypt-algorithm assets and enhancing miner economics via staking and DeFi integration within the DogeOS ecosystem.

In addition to mining, Thumzup is also broadening its treasury beyond Bitcoin to include Ether, XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, Litecoin, and USD Coin. The company aims to hold up to 90% of its liquid assets in cryptocurrencies, targeting a diversified crypto portfolio worth approximately $250 million. This strategic focus on building a digitally heavy asset base complements its mining operations.

To manage its growing digital asset treasury, Thumzup expanded its partnership with Coinbase Prime. This collaboration provides Thumzup with institutional-grade custody and trading infrastructure, enhancing the security, scalability, and management of its crypto holdings.

Thumzup's Bitcoin-backed credit facility, established through Coinbase Prime in May 2025, serves as a hedge against volatility and a tool for liquidity management. The facility provides Thumzup with non-dilutive capital and allows it to maintain exposure to BTC's potential appreciation.

Thumzup's mining operations are designed to create a self-reinforcing system, where mining operations generate crypto assets, reducing its reliance on open-market purchases. Coinbase, through its partnership with Squads to accelerate USDC adoption on Solana, will undoubtedly fuel Thumzup's ambition in the digital economy.

In summary, Thumzup Media is transitioning from primarily a social media and ad tech firm to a crypto-focused company. This approach is designed to create durable, revenue-generating assets in both operational mining capacity and diversified crypto holdings while leveraging energy-efficient technologies and institutional partners like Coinbase to manage risks and scale effectively.
