Deep Tide TechFlow News, February 4th, according to Cointelegraph, Nasdaq-listed insurance brokerage company TIRX Holdings announced that it has reached a strategic agreement with an undisclosed investor who will contribute 15,000 Bitcoins in exchange for equity in the company. Based on the current Bitcoin price of approximately $75,000, this transaction is valued at about $1.1 billion.

The agreement also includes a strategic partnership focused on artificial intelligence and cryptocurrencies.
