ProCap BTC’s Bitcoin strategy yields $60M unrealized gain amid business combination progress, strengthening shareholder value proposition.
ProCap BTC has made significant progress on its business combination with Columbus Circle Capital Corp I (BRR), filing the Form S-4 with the SEC. What stands out immediately is the $60+ million in unrealized gains from their Bitcoin holdings in less than 90 days. The company purchased approximately 4,950 Bitcoin at a time-weighted average price of $104,333.56 per coin, with Bitcoin now trading at approximately $117,619.71 as of September 17.
This strategic Bitcoin acquisition represents a 12.7% appreciation in just three months, demonstrating the potential upside of their Bitcoin-native strategy. Importantly for investors, BRR shareholders who maintain their position through closing will receive additional shares if Bitcoin’s price exceeds the original purchase price at closing – creating an embedded Bitcoin price appreciation mechanism for current shareholders.
The company has simultaneously strengthened its executive team by adding Megan Pacchia (COO) from McKinsey with significant operational transformation experience, and Kyle Wood (Chief Legal and Compliance Officer) with extensive fintech and digital asset legal expertise. These appointments, alongside Jeff Park (CIO) who joined in August, indicate the company is building robust operational infrastructure to support its vision of becoming a leading Bitcoin-native financial services firm.
The Bitcoin appreciation has already created substantial unrealized value, essentially pre-funding parts of their growth strategy before the business combination has even closed. This provides a stronger starting position for the combined entity and demonstrates management’s ability to time their Bitcoin purchases advantageously – a critical skill for a Bitcoin-focused financial services company.
NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ProCap BTC, LLC (“ProCap BTC” or the “Company”), a bitcoin-native financial services firm, today announced key milestones in its proposed business combination (the “Business Combination”) with Columbus Circle Capital Corp I (“BRR“) (Nasdaq: BRR), which includes ProCap Financial, Inc.’s (“ProCap Financial”) public filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (“Form S-4”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on September 18, 2025.
In connection with the Business Combination announced in June 2025, the Company purchased approximately 4,950 Bitcoin at a time-weighted average price of $104,333.56 (the “Signing Price”). Since then, the price of Bitcoin has increased to approximately $117,619.71 as of September 17, 2025, representing a more than $60 million in unrealized gains, highlighting the Company’s strategic decision to purchase Bitcoin prior to the close of the Business Combination.
BRR shareholders who hold their shares through the close of the Business Combination will be eligible to receive additional shares of ProCap Financial if the price of Bitcoin at the close of the Business Combination exceeds the Signing Price, as determined under the transaction documents.
“This filing represents a significant milestone in advancing the Business Combination,” said Anthony Pompliano, CEO of ProCap BTC. “Our goal is to build the leading bitcoin-native financial services firm. We’re especially excited that BRR shareholders who remain invested through the close of the transaction will have the opportunity to participate in Bitcoin‘s upside through additional equity in ProCap Financial.”
“The continued appreciation in Bitcoin value as well as the further development of the ProCap BTC team alongside Anthony Pompliano’s leadership demonstrates the benefits of the Business Combination,” said Gary Quin, CEO of BRR. “The filing of the Form S-4 takes us one step closer to closing.”

To support ProCap BTC’s growth and corporate governance needs, Megan Pacchia has joined as Chief Operating Officer and Kyle Wood has joined as Chief Legal and Compliance Officer. Ms. Pacchia and Mr. Wood will join the company’s Executive Team alongside Jeff Park, who joined the company in August 2025 as Chief Investment Officer.

CLINTON, N.C. (WTVD) — A Sampson County man is celebrating after winning the $130,000 jackpot prize days before his 40th birthday.
"I don't even know how to describe the feeling," Corey Hamilton told the NC Education Lottery. "I just always felt that if it's meant to be, then it's meant to be."
Hamilton bought his winning $1 Cash 5 Quick Pick ticket from the Han-Dee Hugo's on Southeast Boulevard in Clinton. He said he found out he won when he checked his numbers early on Wednesday morning.
"I woke up at 3:30 and I was like, 'Wait a second, that can't be right,'" Hamilton said. "It has kind of all lined up since I turn 40 on Saturday."
After required federal and state tax withholdings, he took home $93,275, which Hamilton said he plans to use to buy a new truck, pay bills, and save for retirement.
Cash 5 is one of six lottery games in North Carolina where players have the option of buying tickets at a retail location, on the lottery's website, or on the app. Thursday's jackpot is $110,000.

Pi coin recently completed a breakout above its horizontal channel resistance. This move came after the cryptocurrency climbed 2% with trading volume jumping nearly 150%.
The breakout occurred when PI closed above the upper boundary of its horizontal channel on Saturday. This channel had contained price movements between August 2 and August 8.
During yesterday’s session, the breakout generated 16% gains for PI holders. The move suggests renewed bullish sentiment among traders.
Today’s price action shows PI coin price maintaining momentum with a 2% increase. Trading volume reached $270 million by press time, representing a nearly 150% surge over 24 hours.
The combination of rising price and increased volume confirms trend strength. More participants are actively buying, which supports the current price movement.
PI’s price now trades above its 20-day exponential moving average at $0.4038. This technical indicator measures average price over the past 20 trading days, giving more weight to recent prices.
When an asset trades above its 20-day EMA, it typically indicates growing short-term bullish momentum. The EMA now provides dynamic support beneath the current price level.
The current price sits near $0.413, representing a 4% decline from recent highs. Pi encountered strong resistance at the $0.46 level, which coincides with a 4-hour supply block.
This resistance zone also aligns with the upper Bollinger Band, creating multiple layers of overhead pressure. The rejection occurred after a multi-day rally from the $0.326 low.
On the daily chart, PI remains within a broader downtrend. Descending trendline resistance continues to cap upside movement since May.
The recent rally broke above short-term dynamic levels but stalled at the confluence of the $0.46 supply zone. The daily EMA cluster also provided resistance at this level.
On-Balance Volume remains near multi-month lows despite the recent price spike. This suggests broader accumulation remains weak among institutional players.
The 4-hour chart shows price pushed above the 20 EMA at $0.391 and 50 EMA at $0.384. However, sellers successfully defended the 200 EMA at $0.4287.
If buying momentum continues, PI could target the key resistance level at $0.4451. A successful break above this barrier may push price toward $0.5281.
Conversely, profit-taking could send PI back to support near $0.3773. The mid-Bollinger Band at $0.4402 now acts as immediate resistance following the recent rejection.
Pi Network currently trades near $0.413 with volume remaining elevated at $270 million over the past 24 hours.

The Pi Network has faced challenges since the launch of its mainnet. Nonetheless, technical indicators point to a significant potential for a rebound in the coming days. Explore the catalysts that could drive the PI price to new highs.
Written by Simon Dumoulin
Translated on August 12, 2025 at 14:24 by Marie
Despite the price drop of Pi Network since its February launch, technical analysis reveals encouraging patterns suggesting substantial upside potential in the near future. On a 12-hour chart, the PI token has formed a double bottom at $0.40 with a neckline at $1.66, signaling a possible 154% rally from current levels.
Additionally, Pi Network has developed a large descending wedge pattern, often preceding a bullish breakout when both lines converge. Technical indicators also support this outlook, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) climbing from 19.7 to 52 and a bullish crossover of the Percentage Price Oscillator (PPO) lines.
Several factors could support an upcoming surge in Pi Network’s price. First, the current crypto market rally, led by Bitcoin, could trigger a favorable season for altcoins like PI.
Furthermore, a listing on a major centralized exchange such as Binance, Coinbase, or Upbit could give the token fresh momentum, similar to other recently listed tokens. Finally, developer announcements regarding increased decentralization and additional token sales could also stimulate price growth.
In summary, technical signals and potential catalysts suggest a major trend reversal for Pi Network in the coming days. Savvy investors would be well-advised to closely monitor the evolution of this promising token.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Two lucky Arkansans won big from their instant lottery tickets and claimed their prize on the same day.
According to the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery (ASL),  Amanda H. from Baxter County won $100,000 playing $100,000 Golden Ticket, a $5 instant game, and James Guerin from Saline County won $50,000 playing $50,000 Frenzy.
Amanda told ASL that she only plays occasionally whenever she has some extra cash. When she does, she selects her tickets by intuition.
“I just have this gut feeling,” she told lottery officials.
Her instincts would lead her to the last $100,000 Golden Ticket in the retailer’s lottery bin.
She was then stunned when she scratched off the winning ticket at home and discovered that she had won a $100,000 top prize.
“Next thing you know, it’s like— ‘No way!’” she said. “I never imagined I would win anything like this,” she said. “If you have that gut feeling, go with it!”
ASL stated that Amanda plans to build a home on some land with her winnings and intends to continue playing lottery games.
Guerin was traveling when he stopped in Cabot and bought the $20 ticket for his favorite game with a $1 million top prize that was sold out.
He scratched it in the store initially, assuming he won a smaller prize. He then realized that he had actually won a $50,000 top prize instead; all he could think was “Wow!”
Guerin has no plans for his win yet, but told ASL he has considered putting it in the bank, and he also plans on continuing to play lottery games for bigger prizes.

Ozak AI has emerged as one of the most promising projects in the market. The $OZ token presale offers an unprecedented blend of decentralized artificial intelligence, blockchain, and predictive technologies that are grabbing the interest of experienced traders as well as first-time investors.
Ozak AI is currently trading at $0.005 per token, granting early investors an attractive option of joining in a project that has the potential of generating high returns.
Ozak AI’s $OZ token presale: A glimpse of future gains
The $OZ token presale has gained significant momentum after Phase 4 of the presale raised 134.8 billion tokens and generated more than 1.87 million. In the next stage, the presale price will rise to $0.01 per token.

 This trend suggests that great potential currently exists among early investors since there is a probability that the value of the token can explode exponentially once it reaches the target value of $1.00.
This 200x upside to the current presale price says a lot about the possibilities of future growth. It is noteworthy, though, that the presale is still not finished and that even as the progress bar is about to hit complete, there are a very small number of tokens left at the current price. This gives the remaining presale opportunity a desirable engagement to the interested parties that would like to get in as early as possible.

Ozak AI platform: Revolutionizing decentralized AI
What makes Ozak AI stand out in the crowded crypto market is its platform’s unique integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain. Ozak AI operates by using a machine learning algorithm as it analyzes large volumes of data to provide the user with actionable insights. This means that the blockchain technology that interacts with the platform provides secure and tamper-proof data processing due to decentralized storage and smart contracts.
The main component of Ozak AI is its Ozak Stream Network (OSN), which is a totally decentralized system aimed at managing high-frequency AI predictions. The scalability of the platform, where new nodes are added using the platform, is one of the characteristics of the platform that makes it very flexible for real-time and complicated financial requirements.
Besides the predictable AI, Ozak AI has the capability to guarantee effective and convenient access to data through the utilization of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN). The project that integrates the usage of AI-based decision-making and the blockchain technology infrastructure makes it a leader in the AI and decentralized finance (DeFi) market.
Strategic partnerships and growing ecosystem
Ozak AI’s growth is further supported by a series of strategic partnerships with key industry players. Partnerships with blockchain development companies, artificial intelligence research teams, and DeFi systems are furthering the technological potential of the project, diversifying it, and opening it up to a wider range of users worldwide.
The latter sets up Ozak AI partnerships, such as one with Sint Labs, to introduce sophisticated AI analytics into actual blockchain business practices, a move that enhances the firm’s long-term value pitch. Such alliances not only offer a competitive advantage to the project but also give access to new distribution channels to the platform, and it means that Ozak AI might become mass-market-friendly.
The path to $1: A strong growth trajectory
The presale performance and strategic partnership opportunities give Ozak AI a good chance to achieve its launch price target of $1. If the project continues its trajectory, investors who purchase $OZ tokens at the current presale price of $0.005 could see a 200x return once the token hits $1 at launch.
The idea behind pointing out a combination of AI-based prediction agents and blockchain scalability, with an ability to create new partnerships, has made Ozak AI one of the major blockchain projects to look out for in 2025. High returns, along with its practical applications, make the project a unique opportunity that investors should look forward to when aiming to make a profit out of the next big experience in the crypto market.
Final thoughts 
The presale of Ozak AI with the $OZ token proves to be an exclusive chance to invest in a potentially large-scale, rewarding project. With its advanced AI technology, blockchain infrastructure, and the growing network of various partnerships, Ozak AI has high potential for more gains.
