HashKey Group (a subsidiary of HashKey Holdings Limited, Hong Kong stock code: 3887.HK) announced today that it has reached a preliminary cooperation agreement with the publicly listed company ANAP Holdings Inc. in Tokyo (Tokyo stock code: 3189). ANAP Holdings is one of Japan's leading publicly listed companies for Bitcoin treasury, and both parties expect to officially sign a cooperation agreement by the end of April 2026.

The lending service of HashKey Japan is an institutional-grade wealth management product designed specifically for the Japanese market, built on HashKey Capital’s asset management and fund platform. Under this cooperation arrangement, HashKey Japan will partner with ANAP to provide institutional-grade Bitcoin lending services, assisting ANAP in managing and optimizing the returns of part of its Bitcoin treasury assets through a structured lending framework.

As of April 15, 2026, ANAP holds approximately 1,417 Bitcoins, ranking among the top three publicly listed companies in Japan by Bitcoin holdings. ANAP is actively promoting a strategic transformation towards becoming a Bitcoin ecological company, committed to exploring more diverse ways of utilizing digital assets—not only focusing on holdings but also hoping to transform reserve assets into a continuous source of income. This cooperation is an important step for HashKey Group in deepening its financial service ecosystem for digital assets in Japan, with HashKey Japan acting as the local operational core. In the initial phase, both parties will focus on deepening the Bitcoin lending business and are expected to gradually expand into broader fields such as digital asset management, treasury optimization, and on-chain financial services.

Leveraging HashKey's mature institutional-grade infrastructure and risk management systems, this cooperation will strongly support ANAP in advancing its overall Bitcoin strategy of "store, use, earn, disseminate". This is also a strong reflection of HashKey Group's commitment to the Japanese market and its continuous fulfillment of promises. With HashKey Japan as the local operational anchor point, the group is steadily building localized service capabilities that meet Japanese regulatory requirements, covering core businesses such as trading, asset management, and tokenization.

The partnership with ANAP is an important milestone in the implementation of the aforementioned strategy, vividly illustrating how institutional digital asset services can help publicly listed companies better manage and unlock the value of Bitcoin treasury assets. Currently, both parties are closely cooperating to advance compliance reviews, ensuring that all regulatory requirements are met before officially announcing and launching services. Looking to the future, both parties look forward to further deepening collaboration in the fields of digital asset management and Bitcoin ecological construction based on their cooperation in Bitcoin treasury, jointly promoting innovation and institutionalization of digital assets in the Japanese market.
