Matador Technologies Inc. announced on Tuesday that it has begun trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker “IU3,” adding a key European listing to its existing U.S. and Canadian markets.
The listing supports Matador’s goal of offering near round-the-clock trading access to its shares globally, a structure modeled after the 24/7 availability of Bitcoin (BTC).
With the addition of Europe, investors in three major regions can now trade Matador stock in their local time zones.
“This listing completes a key part of our global capital markets strategy,” said CEO Deven Soni. “It enables European investors to participate more easily in our growth story.”

Bitcoin-backed treasury
Matador, which brands itself as a Bitcoin Ecosystem Company, focuses on building a Bitcoin-backed treasury and fintech platform.
It joins a growing cohort of public companies aligned with Bitcoin, such as Japan’s Metaplanet and U.S.-based MicroStrategy, which have integrated Bitcoin into their financial strategies.
The company’s approach aims to leverage Bitcoin’s qualities as a reserve asset, and the expanded listings may help Matador attract a broader investor base while enhancing liquidity.
Interest from corporations in digital assets is increasing, with more and more public companies allocating Bitcoin to their balance sheets, according to a recent report from Binance.
Last week, Trump Media and Technology Group closed a $2.44 billion private placement with approximately 50 institutional investors, aiming to establish one of the largest Bitcoin treasuries among publicly traded U.S. companies.
Shares of Matador will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under “MATA,” the OTCQB under “MATAF,” and now the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under “IU3.”
