class=”ql-align-center”>ATW Partners and DWF Labs invested $55 million in initial closing
TRNR will be the US’s largest publicly traded crypto-treasury focusing on AI tokens.
TRNR partners with Fetch.ai for AI-powered fitness training
Interactive Strength Inc., maker of specialty fitness equipment for the CLMBR, FORME, and Wattbike brands, and in the process of acquiring Sportstech, announced today that it had entered into an Securities Purchase Agreement (SPA) to raise $500 million. The net proceeds are to be exclusively used to purchase FET tokens – a digital asset developed with AI by Fetch.ai.
TRNR is likely to have the world’s largest crypto-treasury focusing on AI tokens as a result of this transaction. TRNR has already begun the acquisition of FET tokens using the $55 million in new capital invested by ATW Partners, a private equity company.
Trent Ward, TRNR’s CEO said: “Digital assets have become an integral part of the global financial infrastructure. AI represents a technological revolution unprecedented in human history.” Fetch.ai leads the industry at the intersection between two of today’s most significant technology trends: crypto and artificial intelligence. Our strategy of acquiring a large number FET tokens will help us to accelerate our goal to provide significant value to TRNR’s shareholders.
We are pleased to be a part of this historic deal that will advance institutional adoption. As a leader in the crypto market, and as a company that specializes in investments, Fetch.ai and TRNR’s treasury strategies have enormous potential. They represent the next generation of capital markets that embrace AI-driven digital asset.
Humayun Sheikh is the CEO of Fetch.ai. “Unlike conventional models, which generate isolated responses in response to a query, Fetch.ai’s ecosystem relies on agents who can collaborate and interact with each other, as well as transact real-time,” he said. “This enables users to build and monetize AI tools that operate independently–whether for booking doctor appointments, market forecasting, or personalized fitness plans.”
Fetch.ai’s platform is the first LLM in the world designed to be autonomous, rather than just for content creation. It powers AI agents who optimize industries from medical research, energy, logistics, and finance. Fetch.ai, the first issuer of FETs and member of the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance(ASI), is the originator of FET. Fetch.ai and TRNR will work together to accelerate the AI-driven platform for personal training.
TRNR says that this investment will accelerate its momentum following two acquisitions. TRNR also believes it highlights strong investor support for TRNR’s combined strategy of crypto treasury and acquisitions. TRNR expects its crypto treasury assets strategy to increase financial flexibility and support AI and digital fitness aspirations, while increasing shareholder exposure to new-generation growth investments.
According to Coinmarketcap.com, FET ranks among the top 50 cryptocurrencies and is one of top 5 AI focused cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
TRNR is leveraging BitGo to trade and hold its FETs, using BitGo’s top-of-the-line custody platform.
