Blockchain Group’s $24 Billion Bitcoin Plan Sparks Crypto Market Surge
Europe’s first bitcoin treasury company, The Blockchain Group, has unveiled an ambitious strategy to acquire 260,000 BTC—worth approximately $24 billion—by 2033. The announcement ignited bullish sentiment across crypto markets, with traders interpreting the move as a watershed moment for institutional adoption in Europe.
The firm solidified its position as a pioneer in November 2024 by becoming the continent’s first corporation to integrate Bitcoin into its core financial reserves. Unlike speculative traders, the company treats BTC as a strategic monetary asset—digital gold for conducting business in an increasingly scarce crypto economy.
On March 27, the group executed its third-largest BTC purchase to date, adding 580 coins to its treasury. Market observers anticipate this accumulation strategy will create sustained buying pressure while validating Bitcoin’s role in corporate balance sheets.
Metaplanet Issues $25M Zero-Coupon Bonds to Expand Bitcoin Holdings
Tokyo-listed Metaplanet has secured 3.6 billion yen ($24.8 million) through zero-coupon bonds sold exclusively to EVO FUND, earmarked exclusively for Bitcoin accumulation. The hospitality firm’s BTC treasury now exceeds 5,000 coins.

Bitcoin Poised for 25% Surge as Mining Costs Signal Imminent Breakout
Bitcoin’s recent 25% rebound from $74,000 lows may be just the prelude to a more substantial rally. Crypto analyst Robert Breedlove identifies three critical indicators suggesting an impending price explosion, with miner economics taking center stage.
The ’Average Miner Cost of Production’ metric reveals Bitcoin consistently rebounds after dipping below mining breakeven levels. This pattern has held through six historical instances, including September 2024’s trough. Current data shows the signal flashing again, with Blockware’s chart analysis suggesting miners’ cost pressures typically precede major upside moves.
Bitcoin Rally Targets $105K Following $97K Surge Amid ETF Optimism
Bitcoin’s price surged to $97,000 this week, marking a 3.4% gain and igniting bullish sentiment among analysts. The rally is fueled by institutional accumulation, regulatory tailwinds, and technical momentum, with projections now targeting $105,000 in the coming weeks.
ETF filings remain a key catalyst. 21Shares’ recent application for a spot SUI ETF has reassured markets after initial SEC delays sparked uncertainty. The MOVE signals procedural pacing rather than outright rejection, stabilizing investor expectations for crypto financial products.
