Singapore-based AI and education company Genius Group has significantly expanded its Bitcoin holdings, now owning 440 BTC after adding another $2 million worth of Bitcoin to its portfolio. This brings the company’s total investment in Bitcoin to $42 million.
As of January 31, 2025, with Bitcoin trading at $104,893, Genius Group’s Bitcoin treasury is valued at $46 million, surpassing its own market capitalization of $33.1 million. This means that for every $100 in Genius stock, investors technically own $139 worth of Bitcoin.
The company’s Bitcoin holdings now account for 139% of its market value, according to a ratio that compares the value of the Bitcoin treasury to the market cap. This aggressive investment in Bitcoin aligns with Genius Group’s “Bitcoin-first” strategy, which has already seen the firm invest $40 million in the cryptocurrency over the past three months. The company plans to ramp up its Bitcoin reserves to $120 million using reserves, a crypto-backed loan from Arch Lending, and an ATM facility.
This latest acquisition follows a $5 million Bitcoin purchase made by Genius Group just weeks ago. By mirroring the approach of MicroStrategy, the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, Genius Group director Thomas Power believes the company is positioning itself to be a leader in the space. He hopes that the company’s Bitcoin strategy will benefit shareholders, with plans to fully embrace MicroStrategy’s model once Genius is listed on the NYSE American.
With its Bitcoin-first approach, Genius Group aims to capitalize on the rising value of Bitcoin while positioning itself as a forward-thinking company in the AI and education sectors.
