Liquid Mercury Announces Initial Closing of ACQUA1 Offering

Liquid Mercury announced the successful completion of its ACQUA1 token offering on September 4, 2026. ACQUA1 is a subsidiary of Liquid Mercury that licenses its technology to companies looking to tokenize real-world assets, earning fees and a minority equity stake in return. The majority holder and manager of Liquid Mercury, CEO Tony Saliba, noted that many companies approached Liquid Mercury to tokenize their assets without needing to raise capital or build infrastructure from scratch.

The ACQUA1 token holders now own a share of the business that generates equity as well as fees from the companies participating in the Lab Company program. Verified accredited investors exchanged MERC for non-voting Class B units of ACQUA1, with a conversion rate of 10 MERC per unit. Post-offering, all 563,230,000 MERC received at the initial closing were burned, with the transaction recorded on-chain as ACQUA1-C tokens, which convert one-for-one into ACQUA1 tokens upon issuance.

Additional closings are scheduled for October 30 and December 31, 2026, though Liquid Mercury may choose to skip or terminate these closings at its discretion. The ACQUA1 tokens are restricted securities subject to transfer restrictions and may remain illiquid indefinitely.
