Wall Street’s $810M Bitcoin Binge: Corporate Treasuries Bet Big on Crypto

Wall Street's institutional players just made their biggest crypto move yet—$810 million worth of Bitcoin now sits on corporate balance sheets. The ultimate hedge or a HODL of desperation? You decide.

The Whale Watch Is On

Forget dipping toes—mega-investors are cannonballing into Bitcoin. That $810M buy-in marks a tipping point for institutional adoption, with treasury strategies now including 'digital gold' allocations.

Why This Isn't 2021

Unlike last cycle's retail frenzy, this accumulation comes from cold-eyed CFOs. They're not chasing memecoins—they're hedging against inflation while traditional markets sputter. (Take that, fiat purists.)

The Cynic's Corner

Of course, nothing unshackles corporate purse strings like FOMO—especially when the Fed's money printer starts coughing. But hey, at least they didn't buy NFTs this time.

Companies Bulk Up Bitcoin Reserves

According to reports, Michael Saylor’s Strategy topped the list by scooping up 4,225 BTC. Metaplanet followed with 797 BTC, while France’s Sequans tacked on 683 BTC.

The UK’s The Smarter Web Company chipped in 325 BTC. Smaller buys came from Semler Scientific (210 BTC), Australia’s DigitalX (167 BTC), and China’s Cango (almost 150 BTC). These purchases spanned firms in the US, Japan, France, Canada, Sweden and elsewhere.

Seventeen new corporate programs aim to add 44,200 BTC over the coming months. The Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company, led by Blockstream’s Adam Back, plans to hold roughly 30,000 BTC on its books.

Other big hitters include Volcon, which set a $500 million Bitcoin strategy, and Click Holdings, mapping out a $100 million fund split between BTC and SUI. OFA Group also flagged a $100 million equity reserve, and Cycurion lined up $10 million for a crypto treasury plan.

Eleven funding drives have already locked in about $47 million toward future BTC purchases. The Smarter Web Company raised $23.5 million. Belgravia Hartford pulled in $9.7 million. The Blockchain Group collected $7 million. Meanwhile, H100 Group, Vaultz Capital and LQWD each announced multi‑million-dollar rounds aimed at snagging more Bitcoin.
