AlphaTON is preparing for another expansion phase after securing new freedom to raise capital in the U.S. markets.
Summary
- AlphaTON filed a $420.69M shelf registration after clearing SEC limits.
- Funds will support AI infrastructure, GPU expansion, and Telegram ecosystem acquisitions.
- The move strengthens the company’s position as a key TON and Cocoon AI infrastructure provider.
AlphaTON Capital has taken another step in its shift toward TON and Telegram’s AI ecosystem, filing a $420.69 million shelf registration after clearing hurdles that previously restricted its ability to raise capital.
According to a Dec. 4 press release, the company has exited the SEC’s “baby shelf rules,” which apply to issuers with a public float below $75 million. Those rules had capped the company’s fundraising ability, limiting how much it could issue in any 12-month period.
AlphaTON outlines flexible financing plans for AI, HPC, and TON growth
Now, with its float above the threshold, AlphaTON has filed a shelf registration that allows it to issue up to $420.69 million in securities as needed. The company says the filing will support its next phase of expansion. This includes scaling GPU infrastructure for Telegram’s Cocoon AI network and acquiring revenue-generating startups inside the Telegram and TON ecosystem.
Once the shelf becomes effective, AlphaTON can sell common shares, preferred shares, debt, warrants, or mixed units across multiple offerings, giving it room to match fundraising with market conditions.
Chief executive officer Brittany Kaiser said the shift opens the door for AlphaTON to “move quickly and decisively on transformational opportunities,” noting rising demand for GPU compute across Cocoon AI. The company plans to extend its existing deployments of Nvidia B200 GPUs and expand work with partners like CUDO Compute and AtNorth.
TON accumulation and Telegram ecosystem strategy
AlphaTON’s plan also includes a pipeline of acquisitions targeted at Telegram-native businesses. These include firms working on payments, blockchain-enabled services, content platforms, fintech tools, and gaming. The company says these units already generate cash flow and fit its push to build a portfolio of businesses tied directly to Telegram’s 1 billion monthly active users.
Alongside its M&A roadmap, AlphaTON intends to keep growing its digital asset treasury. The company holds TON and several related ecosystem tokens, such as GAMEE, and runs validator and staking operations to earn ongoing yield. Since it rebranded from Portage Biotech in September 2025, this approach has been a key part of its new direction.
AlphaTON’s recent moves suggest it’s entering an aggressive expansion phase. In November, it deployed its first fleet of Nvidia B200 GPUs for Cocoon AI and announced plans to start accumulating Telegram-linked bonds. Later, it launched a $15.3 million at-the-market equity program and secured $82.5 million dedicated to GPU infrastructure.
With the new $420 million shelf, AlphaTON now has far more room to finance these initiatives. The filing arrives during a period of rising interest in decentralized AI compute and a rapid buildout of services across TON, positioning the company to scale both infrastructure and ecosystem ownership.
