NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nArtificial intelligence is a supersonic tsunami hurling towards the U.S. economy. Upon impact, millions of jobs will be destroyed. Financial security will disappear. And economic despair will be pervasive.<\/p>\n\nWe don\u2019t have to accept this fate.<\/p>\n
ProCap Financial, Inc.<\/a> (Nasdaq: BRR) (\u201cProCap Financial\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) today announced its plan to become the first publicly traded agentic finance firm and unveiled its mission to \u201chelp independent investors make money.\u201d ProCap Financial believes it is imperative to harness the power of artificial intelligence to create financial abundance for every human on earth before artificial intelligence creates financial pain for those same people.<\/p>\n
\nProCap Financial\u2019s solution to the existential threat of AI is to build the most accurate and valuable AI models and agents for finance. With an army of efficient AI agents, rather than thousands of human employees, the Company will be able to offer unique products and services to help independent investors create personal wealth.<\/p>\n
\nTo execute on this plan, ProCap Financial has entered into an agreement to acquire CFO Silvia, Inc.<\/a> (\u201cSilvia\u201d), a leading AI agent lab exclusively focused on finance. Silvia\u2019s consumer product is free for all users and currently has proprietary AI agents answering queries from digital-native, wealthy users.<\/p>\n
\nSince its public launch in May 2025, Silvia has achieved the following milestones:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nMore than $30 billion in assets on the platform<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAverage user has a net worth exceeding $2.5 million<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nAverage user has connected 12+ accounts<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n94% of users interact with Silvia\u2019s AI features<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n\u201cThe most powerful agentic AI companies are being built behind closed doors in private markets, accessible to only a small group of insiders, leaving public investors on the sidelines,\u201d said Anthony Pompliano, Chairman and CEO of ProCap Financial<\/b>. \u201cWe are excited to change that by bringing an agentic AI platform into the public markets through this transaction, while at the same time giving independent investors direct access to technology designed to help them make money. Our goal is simple: deliver superhuman intelligence to everyday investors so they can make money.\u201d<\/p>\n
Compelling benefits of BRR moving forward:<\/b><\/p>\n
- \n
- First publicly traded agentic finance firm: <\/b>A modern finance firm that prioritizes automation and AI agents instead of human headcount.\n<\/li>\n
- Retail access to a fast-growing start-up: <\/b>Silvia is an incredibly fast-growing AI platform that places ProCap Financial at the intersection of the two most powerful forces in finance: AI and Bitcoin.\n<\/li>\n
- 5,000+ Bitcoin on Company balance sheet: <\/b>Bitcoin continues to serve as part of long-term capital allocation strategy\n<\/li>\n
- Shareholder-friendly deal structure:<\/b> Consideration for this transaction only benefits Silvia shareholders if ProCap Financial’s stock price increases by more than 400%, aligning incentives with the interests of public shareholders.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Mr. Pompliano <\/b>continued, \u201cEveryone is underestimating how destructive AI will be. At ProCap Financial, we are laser-focused on winning the arms race against the machines. We must act now to help many more people build wealth before this technology inflicts economic pain and destruction. This is one of the most critical challenges of our time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Transaction Details<\/b><\/p>\n
\nOn February 8, 2026, the Company entered into a definitive merger agreement (\u201cAgreement\u201d) with Silvia pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire Silvia, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approval by the Company\u2019s shareholders (the \u201cProposed Transaction\u201d).<\/p>\n
\nUnder the terms of the Agreement, the Company will acquire Silvia in an all-stock transaction, which is subject to the Company achieving significant equity milestones, namely, 50% of the equity consideration is subject to a lockup until the Company\u2019s stock price reaches $9.00.

\nThe acquisition is subject to a shareholder vote, which is currently expected to occur by the end of the first quarter of 2026. If approved, the Proposed Transaction is expected to close shortly thereafter.<\/p>\n
