Ah, the illustrious Japanese fashion brand ANAP, a name that rolls off the tongue like a fine sake, has once again dipped its dainty toes into the turbulent waters of Bitcoin! With a recent acquisition of 27.5 BTC, they now hold a staggering total of approximately 153.4 BTC. Just two months away from their audacious goal of 1,000 BTC, one can only wonder if they plan to dress their digital currency in the latest trends! 🎉
In a notice that was translated with the utmost care (or perhaps a hint of whimsy), the brand revealed it has splurged a cool $2.9 million of its company funds to fatten its Bitcoin Treasury. On this fateful day of June 12, they procured 27.5031 BTC for a princely sum of ¥432,716,235. One can only imagine the boardroom discussions: “Shall we invest in more fabric or more Bitcoin?” 🤔
With this latest purchase, their total holdings now stand at 153.462 BTC, which, at current market prices, is worth around $16.4 million. Just a day prior, they had the audacity to buy 23.06 BTC for ¥367,264,565, or about $2.5 million. Who knew fashion could be so financially savvy? 💸
As we speak, Bitcoin has taken a slight dip of 1.7% in the past 24 hours. The grandest of cryptocurrencies is currently trading at $107,405, with a trading volume of $34.1 million. Its market cap? A jaw-dropping $2.13 trillion! If only my bank account could boast such figures! 😅
ANAP joins the ranks of other Japanese BTC aficionados like Metaplanet and Remixpoint
On June 9, ANAP unveiled its grandiose ambition to hold over 1,000 BTC by August 2025, a strategy they charmingly dubbed the “Bitcoin Business” roadmap. This plan is a delightful concoction of market purchases and a hefty in-kind capital contribution of 584.9135 BTC. One can only imagine the excitement in the boardroom: “More Bitcoin, less fabric!”
When we mix in this capital contribution with their current holdings, ANAP finds itself with around 738.37 BTC. Alas, they still need to procure at least another 261.63 BTC, which translates to a staggering $28.1 million, before they can pop the champagne in August 2025. Cheers to that! 🍾
In a similar vein, the Japanese investment firm Metaplanet has set its sights on acquiring a jaw-dropping 210,000 BTC by 2027. Currently, they hold around 8,888 BTC in their treasure chest. Talk about a treasure hunt! 🏴☠️
Reflecting a broader trend of institutional Bitcoin demand among Japanese companies, the energy consulting firm Remixpoint has recently approved a $7 million Bitcoin purchase, raising its total BTC investment to a whopping $84 million last May. It seems the Japanese are not just fashion-forward but also financially astute! 🤑
