Metavesco, Inc. CEO Ryan Schadel has purchased 142,857,142 shares of the company's common stock, a transaction that underscores management's confidence as the diversified holding company enters what it describes as a critical execution phase. Details of the transaction are available in the company's OTC Markets filing for shareholder review. The company's first quarter of 2026 will focus on execution across infrastructure, credit, media, and operating business initiatives.
Key infrastructure goals include forming Pulse Markets Inc., a dedicated subsidiary for OTC prediction markets and liquidity experiments, with initial CFTC registration efforts starting by quarter's end. The company will also launch Nexus Capital, LLC, a wholly owned entity housing OTCfi Nexus credit and lending activity, including delivering the first public-company loan via Nexus to an OTC issuer. Media and market intelligence initiatives include the launch of OTC Squawk, a pre-market news and commentary platform built specifically for the OTC marketplace.
The company reports progress on its OTCfi ACCESS platform, with 20 OTC companies actively testing the platform, securing the first paying ACCESS customer for revenue validation, and launching an ACCESS Influencer Portal to enable issuer-to-creator engagement. Additionally, 20 OTC companies are now holding OTCfi on their balance sheets, indicating continued adoption within the OTC community. Operating business updates include opportunistic expansion of Bitcoin mining hashrate to 35 PH/s, providing direct exposure to digital asset infrastructure while contributing to balance-sheet diversification.
The company's Epic Labor subsidiary is operating above break-even, demonstrating scalability without additional outside capital, while Boring Brew is undergoing a strategic review with plans to produce tangible results or seek exit by quarter's end. A final major platform launch in the OTCfi Ecosystem, currently in development, will be announced at a later date. These Q1 initiatives represent the foundation for a broader, multi-year strategy to establish OTCfi as core infrastructure for the OTC marketplace.
Management believes successful execution in early 2026 positions the company to scale issuer adoption, expand credit activity, and increase recurring platform revenue throughout the year. "2025 was a transformative year for Metavesco, fueled by meaningful regulatory shifts at the SEC and a clearer framework for blockchain-enabled infrastructure," the company stated. "These changes allowed us to accelerate the development of the OTCfi Ecosystem, a concept that was shelved in 2023 due to regulatory concerns."
Looking ahead, Metavesco's focus for 2026 is disciplined execution and measured scaling. With foundational infrastructure in place, the company intends to expand platform adoption, deploy additional capital through Nexus funding partnerships, and grow recurring revenue across its OTCfi platforms. Management views 2026 as the year OTCfi transitions from early development to ecosystem-level relevance. The company has begun presenting its OTCfi ecosystem strategy to investors through a dedicated investor presentation available at https://metavesco.net.
OTCfi is described as the Community Token of the OTC, built on Solana and designed to become the digital asset treasury token of choice for OTC issuers. Metavesco is developing a suite of tools within the OTCfi Ecosystem for OTC issuers and investors, with more information available at otcfi.io. The company believes OTCfi represents its most compelling long-term growth and infrastructure opportunity, with potential for significant valuation if executed at a high level.
