About Volcon Inc
Motor Vehicles & Passenger Car Bodies · NASDAQ
Volcon, Inc. (NASDAQ: VLCN) historically represented a company that was founded as the first all-electric powersports business sourcing high-quality and sustainable electric vehicles for the outdoor community. Volcon electric vehicles were described as suited to off-roading, with environmental benefits and near-silent operation that supported a more immersive outdoor experience. Based in the Austin, Texas area, the company operated in the manufacturing sector with a focus on powersports products.
According to company disclosures and press releases, Volcon adopted a Bitcoin treasury strategy effective July 17, 2025, with the goal of becoming a low cost, capital efficient, globally trusted aggregator of Bitcoin. This shift in focus was accompanied by a significant private placement of common stock and pre-funded warrants, with the company indicating that it intended to allocate at least 95% of the gross proceeds from that financing to acquire Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset.
As part of this transformation, Volcon announced plans to change its name to Empery Digital Inc. and to change its Nasdaq ticker symbol from VLCN to EMPD. A subsequent press release confirmed that the name change to Empery Digital Inc. and the ticker change to EMPD became effective as of market open on July 31, 2025. From that date, the common stock began trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol EMPD, while the CUSIP of the common stock did not change in connection with the ticker symbol change.
In its communications, the company stated that the powersports business would continue under the Empery Mobility brand. The powersports operations were described as moving toward an asset light model with limited working capital requirements, leveraging international relationships to source affordable products for U.S. markets. At the same time, the corporate strategy emphasized building a Bitcoin-focused treasury model, including the use of at-the-market equity programs, private placements and a share repurchase authorization to manage capital around net asset value per share.
Volcon’s transition to Empery Digital included entering into a Strategic Digital Assets Services Agreement with Gemini, a crypto platform, to support execution and custody for its Bitcoin treasury strategy. Company materials highlighted the use of a treasury dashboard and other disclosure channels to provide information on Bitcoin holdings and related valuation metrics.
For investors researching the historical VLCN stock, it is important to recognize that the corporate entity associated with this symbol changed its name to Empery Digital Inc. and now trades under the symbol EMPD on Nasdaq. The historical association of VLCN is therefore primarily of interest for understanding the company’s origins as an electric powersports manufacturer and the timeline of its strategic pivot toward a Bitcoin treasury focus.
