AlphaTON eyes meme-sized $420.69M raise for TON, AI expansion after baby-shelf exit

AlphaTON exits baby-shelf limits and plans a meme-sized $420.69 million fundraising program despite being a nano-cap with a steep stock decline.

Small-cap publicly traded firm AlphaTON Capital has signaled ambitions to access a substantially larger fundraising capacity as it delves deeper into the artificial intelligence and Telegram ecosystem. 

The company has exited the SEC’s “baby-shelf” limitations and filed a $420.69 million shelf registration, a precise figure often referenced in crypto’s meme culture. The rules limit the amount of capital that very small public companies can raise through a shelf registration. This aims to prevent tiny issuers from flooding the market with stock and heavily diluting investors.

According to Google Finance data, AlphaTON capital stock, ATON, suffered significant losses in the last month. The stock dropped from $4.75 on Nov. 5 to $1.71 at the time of writing. This marked a 64% drop in a single month.
