Capital B Doubles Down on Massive Bitcoin Accumulation Effort
Capital B, ranked as one of the top Bitcoin holders, is on a mission to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible. According to CEO Alexandre Laizet, the company wants to use its public-market position to finance these purchases.
In an interview at BTCPrague, Europe's largest Bitcoin conference, Laizet described Capital B as a 'Bitcoin-maximalist' company. This means that he believes in holding onto the asset for long-term value rather than frequently trading or selling it.
Laizet emphasized the importance of accessing capital to purchase Bitcoin. He estimates that global assets total around $1 quadrillion, but only a small portion can directly invest in Bitcoin due to its limited supply.
Capital B has already made significant strides in accumulating Bitcoin, with holdings reaching 3,525 BTC worth over $299 million. The company recently surpassed Sweden's H100 Group and has announced a €21 million institutional funding round to purchase more Bitcoin.
