SolarBank Corp. (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) Among Early Adopters of Bitcoin Treasury Strategies Amid Growing Trend

  • SolarBank Corporation joins a group of 61 public companies adopting bitcoin treasury strategies.
  • The company expects to bridge growing investor interest in crypto with the stability of renewable energy.
  • SolarBank has applied to open an account with Coinbase Prime for custody and related services.
  • CEO Richard Lu says the strategy helps attract a new class of tech-savvy investors.

Disseminated on behalf of SolarBank Corporation

SolarBank (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2), a premier developer and owner of renewable and clean energy projects, specializing in distributed and community solar initiatives throughout Canada and the U.S., announced this month it will begin holding bitcoin as part of its treasury reserves. The strategy marks SolarBank as one of the early adopters of what is becoming an increasingly common approach among publicly traded firms looking to diversify assets and attract new investors.

The concept of a bitcoin treasury strategy involves companies allocating a portion of their cash or reserves into the cryptocurrency. While it remains a relatively niche approach, a report by Reuters notes that 61 publicly listed companies not primarily focused on digital assets have now adopted such strategies (https://ibn.fm/erCis).

Many of these firms were influenced by the gains of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), which began accumulating bitcoin in 2020 and now holds more than $63 billion of the asset.

According to Standard Chartered, the number of companies adopting this strategy have doubled their bitcoin holdings over the past two months, now holding just under 100,000 coins collectively. Firms like Trump Media & Technology Group, which raised $2.5 billion recently, are part of this trend. A separate joint venture involving SoftBank, Tether, and Cantor Fitzgerald is also seeking to acquire bitcoin on a large scale.

SolarBank has disclosed that it intends to use the net cashflow from its Geddes Project to purchase bitcoin. The Geddes Project is expected to be operational by the end of June 2025. The company has not yet purchased any bitcoin. However, CEO Richard Lu framed the decision as a strategic blend of traditional energy business with contemporary digital asset exposure.

“Traditionally, people invest in utilities as [an] afterthought. It’s a very low return. It’s a stable return,” Lu told Reuters. “So, how do we bridge the excitement of the new world and a classic industry? We feel that the crypto part of that is a bridge we need to cross.”

SolarBank says the decision is designed to align the company with emerging digital asset infrastructure while differentiating its utility-focused profile from competitors. The company has filed to open an account with Coinbase Prime (NASDAQ: COIN) to securely custody bitcoin and manage its digital assets.

The company cited several intended benefits for the strategy. These include financial resilience against inflation, potential access to institutional capital, and the ability to offset bitcoin-related energy use with its clean energy generation portfolio.

By integrating bitcoin into its treasury, SolarBank is also targeting a new base of investors interested in blockchain, digital finance, and decentralized technologies. The company emphasized that its clean energy operations may offer a unique positioning in the current crypto landscape, where environmental concerns around mining remain prominent.

For more information, visit the company’s website at SolarBankCorp.com.

There are several risks associated with the development of the projects detailed in this report. The development of any project is subject to the continued availability of third-party financing arrangements for the project owners and the risks associated with the construction of a solar power project. There is no certainty the projects disclosed in this report will be completed on schedule or that they will operate in accordance with their design capacity.

This report contains forward looking information. Please refer to the press release entitled “Bitcoin Purchases to be made by SolarBank Using Net Cash from Geddes Solar Power Project” for additional details on the statements, risks and assumptions.

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) Proprietary Therapy Shows Promise in Treatment of Psoriasis

  • Psoriasis affects approximately 3% of the adult population in the United States, translating to more than 7.5 million individuals.
  • By using visible light, Soligenix’s SGX302 aims to mitigate risks while effectively reducing inflammation and promoting skin healing.
  • A phase 2a study demonstrated that SGX302 was well tolerated, with no significant adverse events reported.

Psoriasis is more than just a skin condition — it’s a lifelong autoimmune disorder that disrupts daily life with painful, inflamed patches and an emotional toll that can be just as severe as the physical symptoms. Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX) is at the forefront of developing innovative therapies for this condition, notably SGX302 (synthetic hypericin), a novel treatment currently undergoing Phase 2a clinical trials aimed at addressing mild to moderate psoriasis.

Psoriasis affects approximately 3% of the adult population aged 20 years or older in the United States, translating to more than 7.5 million individuals. Notably, around 600,000 adults in the United States live with undiagnosed psoriasis. The prevalence is similar between males (2.8%) and females (3.2%). Globally, the condition impacts about 125 million people, or 2–3% of the world’s population (https://ibn.fm/GAK4y).

Psoriasis is not merely a skin disorder; it is associated with several comorbidities, including psoriatic arthritis, cardiovascular disease and depression. Approximately 30% of individuals with psoriasis develop psoriatic arthritis, a condition that causes joint pain and stiffness. The economic burden of psoriasis in the United States is substantial, with direct and indirect costs estimated to be between $112 billion and $135 billion annually (https://ibn.fm/UKxIo).

Current treatment options for psoriasis include topical therapies, phototherapy, and systemic medications such as biologics. While these treatments can be effective, they often come with limitations, including side effects, high costs, and the need for long-term administration. Many patients with mild to moderate psoriasis are seeking alternatives that are both effective and have a favorable safety profile.

Soligenix’s SGX302 represents a promising advancement in this context (https://ibn.fm/emX4P). Utilizing synthetic hypericin, SGX302, or HyBryte(TM), is a novel, first-in-class, photodynamic therapy using safe, visible light that targets and treats psoriatic lesions. This approach is distinct from traditional phototherapy, which often relies on ultraviolet (“UV”) light, potentially leading to long-term skin damage. By using visible light, SGX302 aims to mitigate these risks while effectively reducing inflammation and promoting skin healing.

Soligenix has released top-line interim results from its phase 2a clinical trial evaluating SGX302 in patients with mild to moderate psoriasis (https://ibn.fm/ZQTzZ). The study demonstrated that SGX302 was well tolerated, with no significant adverse events reported. In interim results, 50% of patients receiving SGX302 were considered “Almost Clear” in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (“PASI”) scores compared to baseline, indicating a reduction in both the extent and severity of psoriatic lesions. These findings suggest that SGX302 has the potential to offer a safe and effective treatment option for individuals with mild to moderate psoriasis.

Soligenix continues to build on its broader mission of delivering therapeutic solutions for difficult-to-treat conditions, with SGX302 marking a noteworthy advancement in its pipeline. By focusing on non-immunosuppressive strategies for managing psoriasis, the company is working to fill a critical gap for patients seeking alternatives to current therapies, many of which come with significant long-term risks or limited efficacy.

As the phase 2a trial moves forward, SGX302’s progress remains closely watched by researchers and clinicians alike. Its novel mechanism and promising early results signal a potential shift in how mild to moderate psoriasis is treated, highlighting Soligenix’s role in reshaping the future of dermatologic care through innovation and precision-targeted drug development.

Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) Advances Waterberg Project  Amid Third Straight Year of Platinum Deficits

  • The platinum market recorded a deficit of approximately 992,000 ounces in 2024 and is forecast to remain in substantial undersupply through 2025.
  • This tightening supply-demand balance has prompted a sharp rally in platinum prices.
  • Platinum Group Metals Ltd. is working to address a portion of the world’s platinum need.

The platinum market is entering its third straight year of major structural supply deficits—a situation that is adding both pressure and opportunity for players such as Platinum Group Metals (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM), a development-stage mining company focused on its flagship Waterberg project in South Africa to help unlock new platinum supply while exploring innovative industrial applications for platinum and palladium.

According to the World Platinum Investment Council, the platinum market recorded a deficit of approximately 992,000 ounces in 2024 and is forecast to remain in substantial undersupply through 2025, with deficits estimated at 966,000 ounces for this year (https://ibn.fm/VOZDI). These supply gaps are driven by sharply constrained mine output—forecast to decline by up to 6% this year—and weak recycling rates, which have failed to keep pace with demand. With inventories dwindling fast, it’s clear the market is approaching a critical tipping point.

Adding further strain, global demand remains resilient. While auto demand may soften as EV adoption accelerates, the slower-than-expected EV transition has bolstered continued platinum use in internal combustion and hybrid vehicle catalytic converters. Jewelry demand is also on the rise, especially as consumers, particularly in China, pivot to platinum as a cheaper alternative to gold.

Furthermore, a Sprott special report noted that “perhaps the most striking development is the 300% surge in investment demand highlighted by WPIC, driven by strong Chinese bar and coin demand and a doubling of speculative net long positions. Investment demand is forecast at 688,000 ounces in 2025, marking the third consecutive year of net positive investment. This shift reflects growing investor recognition of platinum’s undervaluation, especially as prices break a 15-year downtrend and speculative interest pivots from short to long positions.”

This tightening supply-demand balance has prompted a sharp rally in platinum prices. Metals analysts report platinum recently surged over 10% in June alone, reaching four-year highs above $1,200 per ounce (https://ibn.fm/BaiIj). Market commentary highlights that the persistent deficits and declining above-ground inventories are laying the groundwork for prolonged price strength.

Platinum Group Metals is working to address a portion of the world’s platinum need. The company’s Waterberg project, on the Northern Limb of South Africa’s Bushveld Complex — the planet’s prime platinum reserve — is being advanced toward development and construction (https://ibn.fm/Cwoq8). The September 2024 Waterberg DFS update (https://ibn.fm/4iMo9) shows Waterberg is being designed as a fully mechanized, underground mine targeting platinum as well as other key metals, including palladium, rhodium and gold, (“4E” or “PGM”) with copper and nickel byproducts.

The October 2024 DFS update emphasized Waterberg’s potential to become one of the lowest-cost, largest underground PGM operations globally, leveraging shallow, decline-access and mechanized mining. Through these efficiencies, the project could deliver much-needed new platinum supply at a time when market demand for the metal is strong.

“The 2024 DFS validates the world-class nature of the Waterberg Project,” said Frank R. Hallam, PLG president and CEO. “Engineering teams from Stantec, DRA and Fraser McGill have collaborated to achieve an optimized and de-risked mine plan while also minimizing capital requirements. The primary objectives of the 2024 DFS were to update and minimize capital and operating costs, and to simplify the construction, ramp up and operating profile of the Waterberg Mine. I believe these objectives have been achieved.”

“We look forward to advancing the Waterberg Project for the benefit of our partners and local communities, as well as all the people of South Africa,” Hallam continued. “The Waterberg Project is planned to create approximately 2,000 jobs during construction and approximately 1,425 mostly high-skilled jobs once steady state mining is achieved. PGMs, copper and nickel play key roles in automotive emissions control and energy transition technologies, including that found in battery electric, plug-in hybrid, gasoline hybrid and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. The Waterberg Project is a long-life asset capable of profitably producing these critical metals.”

Platinum Group Metals is positioning itself at the confluence of a rapidly tightening platinum market and technological innovation. With global deficits reaching up to a million ounces, supply tightening through declining mined supply and weak recycling, and growing industrial, automotive, jewelry, and investment demand keeping prices buoyant, the company’s Waterberg project represents a timely source of new material. Success in bringing Waterberg into production could allow Platinum Group Metals to not only help ease market shortages but also capitalize on a rising price environment.

Newton Golf Company Inc. (NASDAQ: NWTG) Unveils Lighter Shaft amid Women’s Golf Boom

  • Women make up roughly 28% of on-course golfers in the United States, a historic high.
  • The global golf equipment market is booming, generating an estimated $25.5 billion in 2024 and projected to grow at nearly 6% annually.
  • Newton Golf’s lighter shaft is engineered to weigh less than previous versions while maintaining precision, stability and distance.

A surge in women’s golf participation is reshaping the industry, drawing fresh energy and opportunity to equipment manufacturers. Newton Golf Company (NASDAQ: NWTG) recently released the perfect piece of equipment for this dynamic market — a lighter shaft option, designed to deliver premium performance for golfers of all levels, from weekend enthusiasts to tour professionals, who are widely adopting the new shaft in competition.

Women now make up roughly 28% of on-course golfers in the United States, a historic high, with female participation climbing 41% since 2019 to reach 7.9 million players in 2024 (https://ibn.fm/d1HkS). Notably, younger women are entering the sport in record numbers through recreational and social formats such as high-tech driving ranges and simulator venues, which are removing historical barriers and making golf more accessible and inclusive (https://ibn.fm/dAPel).

This demographic shift has created a powerful marketplace. Women’s golf equipment and apparel purchases reached $1.53 billion in the United States in 2021, underscoring the purchasing influence of female golfers (https://ibn.fm/FzNMx). In addition, the global golf equipment market is on track to expand from $29.03 billion in 2024 to $30.41 billion in 2025, growing at a 4.8% compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) (https://ibn.fm/Wgvsx). These trends highlight the critical role that women have in the space, not only as players but as a driving force in golf’s commercial growth.

Newton Golf’s introduction of its lighter shaft further aligns with shifting market dynamics. The new option is engineered to weigh less than previous versions while maintaining precision, stability and distance (https://ibn.fm/4qUhj) — qualities valued by golfers across all demographics. With growing participation from women, juniors and recreational players seeking both performance and comfort, the new shaft offers an adaptable solution suited to evolving needs, without being marketed toward a single group. It’s designed for any golfer looking for enhanced swing speed and control through weight reduction and refined balance.

Newton Golf has built its reputation on innovation, focusing on advanced shaft technologies that address fundamental aspects of the golf swing. The company’s Missouri-based manufacturing hub ensures U.S.-based quality and responsiveness to market trends. The new lighter shaft was introduced to support golfers’ desire for equipment that facilitates improved biomechanics and enhanced playability, especially for those experiencing slower swing speeds or seeking greater consistency.

While Newton Golf remains popular among the amateur circuit, the company has also secured endorsement from touring professionals, signaling that its technology can meet elite standards (https://ibn.fm/l2FGm). As women’s golf continues to gain prominence with increased media coverage, investment and female-driven grassroots programs, providing high-performance equipment options across skill levels is becoming increasingly important.

As women continue to drive golf’s growth and redefine its culture and commerce, having manufacturers such as Newton Golf focus on thoughtful gear advancement is key. The new lighter shaft represents not only technological progress but also an industry adapting to the sport’s new face — and all the golfers who comprise it.
