The cryptocurrency company based in Paris, Blockchain Group, acquired $ 68 million in Bitcoin, joining a growing wave of European institutions adding BTC to their balance sheets.
The blockchain group, which claims to be the first Bitcoin in Europe cash company, acquired 624 Bitcoin (BTC) for 60.2 million euros ($ 68.7 million).
The last acquisition brings the total assets of the company to 1,471 bitcoin, or more than $ 154 million, with a BTC return of 1,097.6% YTD, the blockchain group announced in a position of June 3.
Institutional interest has increased since Bitcoin negotiated funds approved the United States in January 2024, introducing the first BTC investment vehicles entirely regulated for traditional investors.
Company appetite saw another significant increase on March 7 after US President Donald Trump published an executive decree describing a plan to create a bitcoin reserve using crypto seized in criminal cases.
