Lib Work Co., a Japanese construction company, announced plans to purchase Bitcoin worth 500 million yen. This move aims to protect the company from inflation risks.
Investments in Bitcoin as Inflation Protection
During a board meeting, the decision to purchase Bitcoin was made. The company believes this investment will help safeguard its funds against rising prices in Japan. In its official statement, the company noted: "Bitcoin can hold its worth even when fiat currencies weaken," opening the path for inflation protection.
Bitcoin Acquisition and Company Strategy
Lib Work plans to spread its acquisition over several months from September to December 2025, using only licensed cryptocurrency exchanges to ensure safety and compliance with regulations. This decision indicates that the company is aware of the risks associated with cryptocurrencies and is keen on seizing their advantages. The company aims to acquire 28 Bitcoins, positioning itself higher in the list of Bitcoin holders worldwide.
Using NFTs to Secure Projects
A month before announcing its Bitcoin purchase, Lib Work launched an initiative to protect its 3D housing designs using non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The first NFT issued by the company is linked to the "Lib Earth House Model B" project and securely stores blueprints, construction history, and ownership rights on a blockchain. This helps prevent the copying of designs without the owner's permission.
Lib Work's strategy aims to utilize modern technologies to protect its financial stability and reform housing markets, aligning with the global trend of blockchain adoption across various sectors.
