KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Treasure Global Inc. (NASDAQ: TGL) (“Treasure Global” or the “Company”), a Southeast Asia–anchored technology company, today announced the establishment of its Digital Asset Treasury, with an initial allocation to Ethereum as part of a strategic balance sheet initiative aligned with the institutionalization of blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
The Company deployed approximately US$176,000 in its initial tranche, reflecting a disciplined capital allocation approach to introduce high-conviction digital asset exposure within a controlled treasury framework.
“We believe our Digital Asset Treasury framework creates a scalable foundation for long-term participation in the evolving digital asset economy, with the potential to support capital deployment of up to approximately US$100 million over time, subject to market conditions and strategic opportunities,” said Sam Teo, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Treasure Global.
Ethereum was selected as the Company’s inaugural Digital Asset Treasury asset due to its role as a primary settlement and execution layer for on-chain financial activity, including decentralized finance, stablecoin settlement, and tokenized assets. The Company views Ethereum as a foundational infrastructure layer in the emerging on-chain economy, supported by expanding institutional participation and network adoption.
To support secure and compliant custody of its digital assets, the Company has engaged BitGo as its licensed custody and wallet infrastructure provider. BitGo provides institutional-grade custody solutions, including regulated wallet infrastructure, multi-signature security architecture, and operational controls designed for institutional treasury management.
“We believe that integrating BitGo’s licensed custody infrastructure meaningfully strengthens our Digital Asset Treasury framework,” said Sam Teo, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Treasure Global. “It enhances the security, governance, and operational resilience of our digital asset holdings, while establishing a strong operational foundation for our long-term strategy.”
The Company believes Ethereum represents a structurally important asset class within the expansion of blockchain-based financial systems. Its liquidity profile, developer ecosystem, and role in enabling programmable financial infrastructure position it as a strategic allocation for long-duration exposure to digital capital markets.
This initiative reflects a treasury strategy focused on long-term value creation through selective exposure to assets with asymmetric return potential, while maintaining disciplined risk management. The Company believes digital assets represent more than a financial opportunity; they symbolize the future foundation of a globally connected digital economy. The Company is not altering its core operating model, but is incorporating digital assets as a complementary balance sheet strategy aligned with global financial digitization trends.
