The Company's Board of Directors Previously Authorized Thumzup to Hold Up to 90% of its Liquid Assets in Bitcoin Under its BTC Reserve Strategy

LOS ANGELES , May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Thumzup Media Corporation ("Thumzup" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: TZUP) today announced it has expanded its capital strategy by establishing a Bitcoin ("BTC") backed credit facility with Coinbase Prime ("Coinbase Prime") (Nasdaq: COIN) to provide access to non-dilutive capital.

"We believe that Coinbase's addition to the S&P 500 marks a significant milestone for the entire crypto industry – Coinbase's trailblazing journey brought BTC and other tokens into the mainstream," said Robert Steele, CEO of Thumzup. "We are proud to expand our relationship with Coinbase through their Bitcoin-collateralized lending program as part of our broader strategic approach to capital management. With a clean cap structure, we believe Thumzup is optimally positioned to accelerate its BTC Acquisition Strategy and create significant shareholder value."

This important development comes as Thumzup is moving to accelerate its Bitcoin acquisition strategy, which, as previously disclosed, permits the Company to hold up to 90% of its liquid assets in BTC. As of May 12, 2025, Thumzup currently holds 19.106 BTC, with a market value of approximately $2.0 million. Thumzup currently utilizes Coinbase Prime as its custodian and prime broker.
