Company Sets Sights on Becoming a Crypto-Integrated Brand Platform, Leveraging Strong Ecommerce Foundation and Industry Collaboration
MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / July 17, 2025 / LQR House Inc. (the “Company” or “LQR House”) (NASDAQ:YHC), a niche ecommerce platform specializing in the spirits and beverage industry, today announced its strategic intent to broaden its corporate focus by integrating cryptocurrency and blockchain technology into its long-term business model.
This forward-looking shift has been spurred by Leshner, a significant voice in decentralized finance and the open market buyer of a stake in LQR House. Leshner has publicly expressed his interest in having the Company pursue a more crypto-native strategy. The Company plans to seek advice from Leshner, or members of the community that Leshner may suggest. Leshner no longer intends on pursuing a controlling interest in the Company.
This announcement follows the board’s previously approved resolution to allocate a portion of the Company’s treasury to Bitcoin, along with its stated intention to explore a potential investment in mining infrastructure through a partnership with Bitmain and Polaris Capital.
LQR House views digital assets not merely as a hedge or diversification strategy, but as a potentially foundational element of its evolving business model.
As of July 16, 2025, the Company reports:
6,809,578 shares outstanding
Sold over $20 million through its at-the-market (ATM)
Zero debt
“We believe that this marks a defining moment for LQR House,” said Sean Dollinger, CEO of LQR House. “We’re not pivoting-we’re expanding. Our vision is to build a platform that combines the strength of ecommerce with the power of digital assets. With the support of experienced crypto leaders and our engaged shareholder base, we’re positioning LQR House to be at the forefront of the next wave of internet-native consumer brands.”
