Empery Digital Inc., a Bitcoin treasury company, sold 63 BTC at an average price of $72,791 per coin, generating roughly $4.6 million in gross proceeds to fund an aggressive stock repurchase program. The sale occurred during the week ending March 20, 2026 and was disclosed from its U.S. operations, part of a broader effort to finance buybacks and reduce balance-sheet leverage. After the sale, Empery said it still holds 3,439 BTC in its treasury, keeping it among the larger listed corporate Bitcoin holders.
The sale was announced alongside a $25 million registered direct equity offering, where Empery agreed to issue approximately 4.64 million shares of common stock at $5.39 per share, together with an equal number of warrants. Net proceeds, plus cash on hand, are earmarked to retire about $40 million of debt by fully repaying a $50 million repo facility and drawing an additional $10 million from an existing $100 million credit line with lender Two Prime. “We intend to use the proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to meaningfully reduce our secured debt while continuing to return capital to shareholders via repurchases,” the company said.
In a series of recent updates, the company has repeatedly sold small BTC clips — 60 BTC at an average of $66,583 in late February for roughly $4 million, and another 60 BTC at around $70,534 in mid-March for about $4.2 million — and used the proceeds to buy back stock. As of February 27, Empery had repurchased 18,685,725 shares under its $200 million authorization; by mid-March that tally had climbed to 21.3 million shares, with management signaling that existing cash balances and reductions in bitcoin holdings would continue to fund repurchases as needed.
