Eightco Holdings Expands Strategic Asset Management with Worldcoin Tower, Targets $1B-$10B AUM with 1% Fee
Summary
Eightco Holdings has significantly expanded its strategic consulting agreement with Worldcoin Tower, broadening the mandate to a comprehensive Strategic Asset Strategy focused on digital asset accumulation and new strategic investments. The revised agreement introduces a 1.00% annual fee on assets under management (AUM) across treasury and investment assets, which represents a material recurring cost given the company's current ~$330 million asset base. Additionally, the agreement includes one-time milestone payments, payable in cash or common stock, when AUM first reaches ambitious targets of $1 billion, $5 billion, and $10 billion. This move formalizes a key strategic direction for Eightco, signaling aggressive growth aspirations well beyond its current asset levels, but also introduces new operational costs and potential future shareholder dilution from stock-based payments. Investors will closely watch the company's ability to achieve these AUM targets and manage the associated fees and potential dilution.
