Digital Rock Holding registered a record on Opstart
The equity crowdfunding campaign active on Opstart has exceeded the initial collection target, breaking down the million euro wall. The company also received more than $116,000 (€100,000) in Bitcoin contributions. It is the first company to achieve such a result, not to mention that it is also the first holding company operating in the cryptocurrency sector in Italy to have announced the transformation into an innovative SME.
This means that investors participating in the campaign can enjoy the new tax benefits provided by the Relaunch Decree for those who invest in startups and innovative SMEs. In detail, natural persons are entitled to a 50% deduction of the capital invested up to a maximum annual amount of $349,000 (€300,000), while legal entities and natural persons exceeding the threshold of $349,000 (€300,000) benefit from a 30% deduction.
The capital raised will be used to finance a development plan aimed at expansion in the European market which also includes a listing on the stock exchange.
Growing interest in Bitcoin and blockchain
The response of investors to the call of Digital Rock Holding on Opstart is yet another demonstration of the fact that even in Italy people are realizing the enormous potential of the crypto sector and the contribution it can make to the economy of a country. Just to mention a few figures, according to the Deloitte’s 2020 Global Blockchain Survey – From promise to reality, almost 40% of companies around the world have included blockchain in their digital agenda, and almost 90% of respondents believe that this technology will become increasingly important in the next 3 years.
