Matador Technologies Inc. announced on Tuesday that it has begun trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the ticker âIU3,â adding a key European listing to its existing U.S. and Canadian markets.
The listing supports Matadorâs goal of offering near round-the-clock trading access to its shares globally, a structure modeled after the 24/7 availability of Bitcoin (BTC).Â
With the addition of Europe, investors in three major regions can now trade Matador stock in their local time zones.
âThis listing completes a key part of our global capital markets strategy,â said CEO Deven Soni. âIt enables European investors to participate more easily in our growth story.â
Matador, which brands itself as a Bitcoin Ecosystem Company, focuses on building a Bitcoin-backed treasury and fintech platform.
It joins a growing cohort of public companies aligned with Bitcoin, such as Japanâs Metaplanet and U.S.-based MicroStrategy, which have integrated Bitcoin into their financial strategies.
The companyâs approach aims to leverage Bitcoinâs qualities as a reserve asset, and the expanded listings may help Matador attract a broader investor base while enhancing liquidity.
Interest from corporations in digital assets is increasing, with more and more public companies allocating Bitcoin to their balance sheets, according to a recent report from Binance.Â
Last week, Trump Media and Technology Group closed a $2.44 billion private placement with approximately 50 institutional investors, aiming to establish one of the largest Bitcoin treasuries among publicly traded U.S. companies. Â
Shares of Matador will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under âMATA,â the OTCQB under âMATAF,â and now the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under âIU3.â
