The UK\u2019s newest Bitcoin-focused public company wasted no time putting capital to work.<\/p>\n
Fresh off its debut on the Aquis Stock Exchange, B HODL (AQUIS: HODL) announced it acquired<\/a> 100 Bitcoin worth $11.3 million, establishing itself as one of the first British firms to formally adopt a corporate Bitcoin treasury strategy.<\/p>\n The purchase, disclosed Wednesday, comes just a day after B HODL raised<\/a> \u00a315.3 million ($20.7 million) in its IPO to fund a long-term digital asset strategy.<\/p>\n With its inaugural buy, B HODL now holds 100 BTC at an average price of \u00a383,872 ($113,227) per coin. That position places the company<\/a> 98th on Bitcoin Treasuries\u2019 global leaderboard of public firms holding Bitcoin.<\/p>\n B HODL\u2019s model echoes the trail blazed by Michael Saylor\u2019s<\/a> Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), the U.S. software company that transformed itself into the world\u2019s largest corporate Bitcoin holder.\u00a0<\/p>\n Since first adopting Bitcoin as its primary reserve asset in 2020, Saylor\u2019s firm has raised billions<\/a> through equity offerings and convertible debt, using proceeds to aggressively accumulate Bitcoin.<\/p>\n By mid-2025, Strategy\u2019s stash had surpassed 500,000 BTC, worth tens of billions of dollars, acquired at an average cost basis far below current market levels. Saylor often describes Bitcoin as \u201cdigital gold\u201d and has positioned his company as a leveraged bet on the asset\u2019s long-term adoption curve.<\/p>\n Strategy recently purchased<\/a> 525 BTC for $60.2 million at an average price of $114,562, raising its total holdings to 638,985 BTC<\/p>\n The model has three key pillars: disciplined buying (often \u201cbuying the dip\u201d), using capital markets to finance purchases, and treating Bitcoin as a non-yielding, inflation-proof balance sheet reserve.\u00a0<\/p>\n B HODL\u2019s decision to move quickly into Bitcoin mirrors this precedent \u2014 with one twist. Rather than a purely passive hold, the UK firm intends to activate<\/a> its treasury through Lightning, effectively turning its Bitcoin into productive infrastructure.<\/p>\n While B HODL\u2019s entry marks a milestone for UK markets, the company still trails domestic peers.\u00a0Smarter Web Company leads the British pack<\/a> with 2,525 BTC ($286 million), ranking 29th worldwide.\u00a0<\/p>\n Just yesterday, the London-listed technology firm added to its holdings under \u201cThe 10 Year Plan,\u201d its long-term treasury strategy of accumulating Bitcoin. The company purchased an additional 55 BTC as part of the program.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\nFollowing Saylor\u2019s playbook<\/strong><\/h2>\n
