Capital B Buys 12 Bitcoin, Expands Treasury to 2,937 BTC

Bitcoin Magazine

Capital B, the listed arm of The Blockchain Group, confirmed the acquisition of 12 bitcoin as it continues to build out its treasury strategy centered on the digital asset.

The company said it spent €0.8 million on the purchase, bringing total holdings to 2,937 BTC. The group’s aggregate acquisition cost stands at €270.1 million, with an average purchase price of €91,975 per bitcoin, according to a note shared with Bitcoin Magazine. 

The latest buy follows a series of transactions since early 2026, with the company reporting a year-to-date BTC yield of 1.57%. It also posted a BTC gain of 44.4 BTC and a BTC-denominated gain of €2.9 million over the same period. Quarterly figures show a 0.85% yield and a gain of 24.4 BTC.

Last week, the company confirmed the purchase of 37 BTC for €2.3 million, at a reference price of €60,892 per coin, as part of its ongoing Bitcoin Treasury strategy.

Alongside the purchase, Capital B completed several financing actions tied to its treasury strategy.

The firm confirmed the full exercise of 16.6 million BSA 2025-01 warrants, which converted into 2.36 million ordinary shares. The transaction raised about €1.29 million. The company noted that the warrants expired on April 10, 2026, and any unexercised rights are now void.

Capital B also carried out a capital increase under its at-the-market agreement with TOBAM. The issuance of 370,701 new shares at an average price of €0.60 generated €0.22 million. The price reflects a discount to the recent market close, based on the agreement’s pricing mechanism tied to trading volumes and prior-day benchmarks.

The proceeds from these operations supported the latest bitcoin acquisition.

Bitcoin as a reserve asset for Capital B

The company positions itself as a Bitcoin Treasury Company, with a stated objective of increasing the amount of bitcoin held per fully diluted share over time. Its model mirrors a growing trend among public firms that allocate capital to bitcoin as a reserve asset.

Custody and execution for the latest purchase were handled by Swissquote Bank Europe SA, with assets secured through infrastructure provided by Taurus.

Capital B operates subsidiaries focused on data intelligence, artificial intelligence, and decentralized technology consulting. Its shares trade on Euronext Growth Paris.

The company’s capital structure reflects a mix of institutional and public investors, including Blockstream Capital Partners, TOBAM funds, and other shareholders. Following the latest transactions, total shares outstanding stand at about 274.9 million on an ordinary basis and 394.8 million on a fully diluted basis.

Earlier today, Strategy (MSTR) added 34,164 BTC for $2.54B, its third-largest purchase, bringing total holdings to 815,061 BTC acquired at an average cost of about $75,527 per coin. The move pushed the company ahead of BlackRock in total Bitcoin holdings, with its position now roughly near break-even as BTC trades around $75,000.
