Future Plans of the Company
Looking ahead, the company expects to acquire approximately 70 more bitcoins, potentially raising total holdings to 1,723 BTC. This aligns with its ongoing capital increase program with TOBAM, which recently brought in €7.2 million aimed at further expanding bitcoin holdings.
Thus, Blockchain Group continues to actively enhance its bitcoin holdings, relying on successful market strategies and planning further acquisitions.
