Melanion Digital

Melanion Digital, a new company that will acquire and develop businesses linked to green and clean Bitcoin. The company will invest across the entire Bitcoin ecosystem, with a focus on four main areas, as part of its ‘HTML’ strategy: • Holding green and clean Bitcoin • Trading green and clean Bitcoin • Mining green and clean Bitcoin • Lending green and clean Bitcoin Green Bitcoin refers to coins that have been mined using only renewable energy sources, while clean Bitcoin describes a coin that has never been used before, or one where the provenance of the coin is known. A ‘know your token’ process will be implemented so investors can be sure all tokens produced and used by Melanion Digital are green or clean, helping to overcome one of the major obstacles deterring institutional investors in the space. As well as investing in Bitcoin mining and holding, Melanion Digital expects to acquire firms with specialist expertise or technology related to some of the more sophisticated Bitcoin trading strategies, as part of the HTML approach. It will also develop a lending platform, through which Bitcoin-related businesses can borrow to fund new projects or initiatives, like investing in mining infrastructure through royalty models similar to the ones we see in the gold mining industry.
