Blockchain Group Makes Bold 60 BTC Bet – Rakes in 1,270% Bitcoin Windfall This Year

Talk about a power play. The Blockchain Group just dropped a cool 60 BTC into its treasury – and it's already paying off big time.

A Yield That'd Make TradFi Blush

That 1,270% year-to-date return isn't a typo. While hedge funds are sweating over 8% bond yields, these crypto natives are playing an entirely different game. The move screams institutional conviction – or maybe just a well-timed HODL.

Cold Storage or Strategic Gambit?

Sixty coins won't move markets, but the optics matter. This isn't some degen apeing into memecoins – it's a calculated accumulation that's currently outperforming every S&P 500 stock. Cue the Wall Street analysts scrambling to update their 'crypto is a scam' PowerPoint decks.

The real question? Whether this is the start of a corporate BTC arms race – or just another case of 'number go up' euphoria. Either way, the suits are noticing.

The acquisition brings the company's total Bitcoin holdings to 1,788 BTC valued at €161.3 million as of June 30, 2025, the company's director of Bitcoin strategy, Alexandre Liazet said in an X post on Monday.
