Thanks for that.

Thanks for the added details, Chiugray.

Concerning the other recent investor, Yorkville Advisors, who invested in Northwest last December with $5 million in a convertible note, then I believe added in another $3 million of the same, and finally are providing an added standby funding of up to $50 million ... I thought I'd point out that Yorkville is the same investor working with Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) with their crypto investment.

The Trump family’s crypto push is not being powered by Wall Street giants, but rather, two small financial institutions most people have never heard of.

One sits inside Trump Tower in Manhattan, while the other operates out of a small New Jersey office between a junkyard and a funeral home.

These firms are Dominari Holdings and Yorkville Advisors, and both have moved from quiet obscurity into the middle of a flood of crypto deals linked to the Trump sons this year.

Eric Trump said the family is working with these companies because of speed and trust. He said, “Some of the smaller guys are faster, more nimble, and some of them have become great friends.”

Eric added that big banks like Goldman Sachs might not offer that same atmosphere, saying meetings there feel like sitting in a “fancy conference room over expensive finger food.”

Yorkville helps raise billions for Trump-linked crypto moves

Yorkville Advisors helped Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) raise $2.5 billion this year to buy bitcoin, and it also supported the announcement of five “America First” themed exchange-traded funds.

In August, TMTG partnered with Crypto.com and Yorkville Acquisition Corp to buy $1 billion worth of the cryptocurrency Cronos. Another Yorkville fund agreed to provide a $5 billion equity line of credit to the new company formed from that transaction. Cronos briefly surged after TMTG said it would buy 6.3 billion tokens, but its price later declined.

Yorkville has used its traditional standby equity purchase deal model. These deals involve buying shares at a discount and selling them back when the company needs cash. A Wall Street veteran described this approach bluntly: “People used to call it death-spiral financing.” In July 2024, Yorkville agreed to buy up to $2.5 billion of TMTG stock at a 2.75% discount. Last year, it bought more than 20 million shares, raising about $450 million.
