Morgan Creek Digital Assets co-founder and crypto influencer Anthony Pompliano is preparing to launch a new Bitcoin-focused investment vehicle that aims to raise $750 million through a merger with Columbus Circle Capital 1, the Financial Times reported on June 13, citing people familiar with the matter.

The new entity, called ProCapBTC, will reportedly secure $500 million in fresh equity commitments alongside $250 million in convertible debt.

The fundraising would follow a merger with Columbus Circle Capital 1, a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC, which went public in May with backing from investment bank Cohen & Company Capital Markets.

The deal’s terms have not been finalized but could be announced as soon as next week, according to the report.

Expanding crypto exposure

Columbus Circle Capital 1 is one of several SPACs sponsored by Cohen & Company, a New York Stock Exchange-listed firm that has become increasingly active in the digital asset sector.

The bank, which has its roots in traditional capital markets and asset management, has expanded into auditing, tax and advisory services for cryptocurrency exchanges, token issuers, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and decentralized finance projects.

Columbus Circle Capital 1 raised $250 million in an initial public offering in May 2025, specifically to target mergers with companies in emerging sectors like blockchain and digital payments.

The reported launch of ProCapBTC comes on the heels of Pompliano’s successful listing of ProCap Acquisition, another SPAC focused on the financial technology sector. ProCap Acquisition debuted on the Nasdaq in April and raised $250 million by selling 25 million units at $10 each.

Pompliano, a well-known Bitcoin advocate and podcast host, has not confirmed the reported merger plan for ProCapBTC on social media or through official statements.

If finalized, the deal would add to a recent wave of large institutional Bitcoin investment vehicles, underscoring renewed appetite for direct exposure to Bitcoin amid growing acceptance of the digital asset class.

May 1st, 2025 – Seoul, Republic of Korea

Global Bitcoin leaders, listed companies, and innovators will gather in Seoul on June 4–6 for Bitcoin Seoul 2025 — Asia’s flagship event shaping Bitcoin’s future.

Bitcoin Seoul 2025, Asia’s largest Bitcoin-focused conference, will take place from June 4 to 6, 2025, at two of Seoul’s most iconic venues: Signiel Seoul and SKY31 Convention.

Following its successful debut in 2024, Bitcoin Seoul quickly established itself as a key fixture in the global Bitcoin conference circuit.

The inaugural event featured leading Bitcoin thinkers such as Saifedean Ammous and Jimmy Song, and attracted thousands of industry professionals and community members to Seoul to exchange insights on Bitcoin’s evolution and future.

Building on this momentum, the 2025 edition promises an expanded scale and a deeper examination of Bitcoin’s global trajectory. 

More than just a conference, Bitcoin Seoul 2025 will feature a multidimensional program spanning Bitcoin strategy, regulation, finance, policy, and real-world adoption.

Amid the growing trend of publicly listed companies in Asia and Europe adopting Bitcoin as a treasury asset, executives who have led these initiatives—including from MetaPlanet and The Blockchain Group—will be participating in the event to share first-hand experiences from the corporate frontlines.

Additionally, Dennis Porter, who spearheaded the Bitcoin strategic reserve movement in the United States, will offer insights into Bitcoin’s expanding adoption at the corporate and governmental levels.

Highlighting real-world adoption

El Salvador’s Mi Primer Bitcoin and Bitcoin Beach—trailblazers in national Bitcoin integration—will lead a special session titled “El Salvador Bitcoin Adoption Showcase.”

The event will also welcome Bitcoin community leaders from around the world, including the United States, Australia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, and Indonesia, who will share firsthand experiences of community-driven Bitcoin adoption across different continents and regions.

The 2025 program will feature: 

  • Bitcoin Policy Summit: Seoul Edition — Insights into regulatory trends and Bitcoin-related public policy
  • Bitcoin Finance Forum — addressing institutional investment, Bitcoin treasury management, and macroeconomic perspectives; 
  • Global Bitcoin Community Assembly — A global forum for Bitcoin grassroots and community leaders

In addition, attendees will be able to experience live Lightning Network payments at the on-site Lightning Market, showcasing Bitcoin’s real-world utility.

Event Structure:

  • VIP Day (June 4): Exclusive sessions and a private reception for global executives and institutional participants
  • Industry Day (June 5): Focused on enterprise use cases and strategic insights from publicly listed companies and institutional players.
  • Public Day (June 6): Dedicated to Bitcoin finance, adoption stories, and infrastructure innovations, welcoming community members, builders, and enthusiasts.

As institutional interest in Bitcoin accelerates following the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States, Bitcoin Seoul 2025 positions Seoul as a key node in the emerging global Bitcoin finance ecosystem.

Countries including South Korea, Japan, and Hong Kong are rapidly integrating Bitcoin-based financial products and treasury strategies — reflecting a broader shift in the global financial landscape. Bitcoin Seoul 2025 aims to capture this momentum and further elevate Seoul’s status as a leading hub for Bitcoin-driven innovation and dialogue.

This year, dozens of domestic and international companies are slated to sponsor the event. Among them is Bithumb, one of Korea’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges, recently ranked #1 in the Korea Exchange Brand Reputation Index, signaling strong market trust.

Ryan, the organizer of Bitcoin Seoul, commented: “Bitcoin Seoul 2025 will unite the global Bitcoin community, extending far beyond Asia to connect innovators worldwide. We are committed to creating a forum that integrates Bitcoin policy, finance, adoption, and community development.”
