Astrid Intelligence chair on ETH, AQUIS and AI agents

Astrid Intelligence PLC (AQSE:ASTR) executive director and chairperson Olivia Edwards talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s initial purchase of Ethereum, its move to the AQUIS Growth Market, and how these decisions align with its AI-led wellness platform strategy. Edwards confirmed Astrid acquired 1,377.98 ETH for £4.5 million, describing it as a milestone that complements existing treasury holdings in Bitcoin, Solana and Bittensor/TAO. “We are really, really excited to announce our first major Ethereum purchase,” Edwards said, adding that Ethereum’s role in smart contracts and decentralised applications aligns with where Astrid expects its autonomous agents to operate. Edwards explained the decision to switch listing venue, noting that AQUIS offers operational flexibility for a digital-asset strategy while maintaining governance standards. She said the move is about positioning the business to “execute faster and more effectively” while staying focused on AI intelligence and strategic asset management. Detailing the product approach, Edwards said Astrid’s autonomous wellness agents run on Bittensor subnet 127, tapping a vetted database of 100,000+ wellness products to deliver actionable recommendations and affiliate-driven commercial outcomes. She highlighted Bittensor’s competitive model in which models are validated and rewarded in TAO, noting that no new subnets are being issued currently, which provides an advantage for Astrid’s platform. Looking ahead, Astrid plans disciplined accumulation of Ethereum while maintaining diversification, aligning treasury assets with the environments where its agents operate. “Our target is sustainable growth through a portfolio that compounds value,” Edwards said.
