The company has confirmed raising over $750 million in funding, including $235 million through convertible debt. The remaining capital was secured through equity financing. ProCap states it is ready to begin purchasing Bitcoin immediately.
Business Strategy and Model

According to Pompliano, the goal is to create a full-service financial platform operating on Bitcoin.
Quote from Anthony Pompliano
Pompliano explained: > "Many companies don’t care about the cost of capital. We do. We are traditional capital allocators – we care about building a sustainable business that generates cash flow."
In conclusion, ProCap Financial embarks on an ambitious project aiming to establish a broad Bitcoin-oriented financial platform, looking to carve a significant niche in the market in a short time.
