DAIS Ethereum Acquisition
Initial Ethereum acquisition for the Digital Asset Income Strategy reserve, roughly 50% below its peak price, to be utilized through Tap Earn
Tap Global Group plc (AIM: TAP, OTCID: TAPIF), a regulated crypto-financial technology company, has made its inaugural Ethereum (“ETH”) acquisition for its reserve under the Digital Asset Income Strategy (“DAIS”). This follows the first Bitcoin purchase on 29 September 2026 and the initial Solana (“SOL”) acquisition on 1 October 2026.
Key Highlights
• 50 ETH obtained at an average cost of £1,888.76 (approximately US$2,497) per ETH, totaling £94,437.86
• Acquisition conducted about 50% below Ethereum’s historical high of around US$4,950
• The ETH is being utilized through the Group’s Tap Earn initiative to generate revenue
• The DAIS reserve now holds 3 BTC, 500 SOL, and 50 ETH, with a cumulative expenditure of £329,665. Additionally, US$279,258 in stablecoins are stored and recorded separately from the Group’s operational digital assets
• Tap Earn currently oversees over US$9.0 million in customer assets and has produced a total gross yield of about US$157,000 since its launch in May 2026
DAIS: Acquire, then Earn
With Bitcoin, Solana, and now Ethereum, each asset under the DAIS strategy is purchased at a price below its peak to be effectively managed through Tap Earn, the Group’s proprietary yield-generating program, which dispenses payments to customers weekly. The reserve balances allocated through Tap Earn are included in the program’s overall figures.
Reporting
The Company will shortly provide an update on the status and performance of the reserve holdings. In the interim, shareholders can monitor the Group’s DAIS asset information at investor.withtap.com.
Arsen Torosian, CEO of Tap Global, stated:
“With our acquisition of 50 ETH at about half its peak value, we’re continuing our strategy. This Ethereum is being immediately deployed through Tap Earn, driving income for our shareholders.
“Our approach under the DAIS structure is consistent. We buy assets below their peak prices, and the same infrastructure that already manages over US$9 million in customer assets and provides weekly payouts is working to generate returns for our shareholders. The DAIS is more than just a holding treasury.”
Important Considerations
The values of crypto assets can be volatile and may rise or fall. Yields are unpredictable and not guaranteed; they could diminish to zero. Utilizing the reserve involves counterparty, custody, liquidity, and collateral risks, including those related to collateralized borrowing and possible liquidation. Details concerning the risk factors associated with DAIS can be found at investor.withtap.com. This communiqué is not to be considered as investment advice or an endorsement of the Tap Earn program.
