The Smarter Web Company has reached a big milestone. CEO Andrew Webley shared that the company plans to move from the Aquis Growth Market to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange (LSE). This move comes just nine months after its IPO and marks a major step in the company’s growth journey.
Webley said the decision follows months of planning, legal work and talks with advisers. The goal is to take a UK born tech company to one of the world’s most respected stock exchanges. Then build a long term British success story powered by Bitcoin and digital capital. For shareholders, this is a huge moment. Many backed the company from its early days and the LSE move shows how fast the business has grown.
From Startup to Public Company in Record Time
The SWC is listed on Aquis in May 2025. In less than a year, it has grown into one of the most talked about Bitcoin treasury companies in the UK. Webley said, “Taking a UK-born business from start-up to a public company is an achievement of which I am extremely proud.” Now, moving to the LSE Main Market marks the next big chapter.
This week marked a major milestone for The Smarter Web Company as we announced our intention to list on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.

The company recently published its official prospectus. Which explains the full plan for the new listing, its business model, financial position and long term strategy. This gives investors a clear and transparent view of what comes next. Webley also confirmed that the company expects the LSE listing to complete in early February 2026, subject to final approvals.
Fresh Funding and Growing Institutional Interest
Alongside the listing update, the company also revealed new funding. Over two days, shares were placed through its ATM-style facility. The Smarter Web Company share price rose £1.67 million before expenses. This strengthens the balance sheet and supports future growth.
Andrew Webley also shared that he spoke with a large UK fund manager this week. They discussed both Bitcoin and the SWC. He said UK institutions are becoming more open to Bitcoin treasury companies and digital capital. More meetings with global and UK institutions are planned in the coming weeks. This shows that traditional finance is slowly warming up to the idea of Bitcoin-backed businesses.
Building a Business on Digital Capital
One of the biggest changes since the IPO is how Bitcoin is now understood by regulators and investors. Before listing, the company had to use soft language like “digital asset treasury.” Now it can openly talk about “Bitcoin treasury policy,” “Bitcoin yield” and “mNAV.”
Furthermore, Webley said this shift is important because it shows that the UK financial system is becoming more open to innovation and digital capital. At the same time, the company’s web design business remains a core part of operations and will continue to grow alongside its Bitcoin treasury strategy.
Community Support and What Comes Next
The Smarter Web Company has built one of the strongest Bitcoin treasury communities on X. Supporters reacted with excitement to the LSE news, calling it a huge achievement. Next week, Andrew Webley plans to share details of a shareholder raffle for the London Stock Exchange opening ceremony. There will also be a shareholder drinks event in London to celebrate the milestone.
Looking ahead, Andrew Webley says 2026 will be a big year. Specifically, the company builds a modern operating business backed by a Bitcoin balance sheet and driven by long-term ambition. Moreover, it has just started the journey from startup to the London Stock Exchange, and the next chapter looks even bigger.
