As global companies continue to increase their focus on Bitcoin (BTC) as a core asset, the Japanese listed company Remixpoint announced that it has raised approximately $215 million (about 299 billion won) to build its own Bitcoin reserves. The company aims to secure a total of 3,000 BTC in the short term, which is an unprecedented case of cryptocurrency asset incorporation among companies in Japan.

Remixpoint recently announced through an official statement that it has secured about 31.5 billion yen through external funding and specified that the entire amount will be invested in null Bitcoin purchasenull. After intense internal discussions, the board of directors unanimously agreed to adopt Bitcoin as a corporate strategic asset to enhance the company's liquidity and long-term value. This is more than a simple investment and reflects a company-wide change in belief.

Notably, the new CEO Takashi Tashiro declared that he will receive his entire salary in Bitcoin. Instead of paying in yen and separately purchasing coins, the company will calculate wages and taxes in yen and then purchase an equivalent amount of Bitcoin at market value, which will be directly transferred to his designated electronic wallet. CEO Tashiro emphasized his intention to share the same risks as shareholders.

Simultaneously, the Swedish healthtech company H100 Group is following a similar path. The company recently raised 516 million krona (about 7.52 billion won) and announced a strategy to purchase additional Bitcoin in addition to the 248 BTC currently held.

Canadian LQWD Technologies also declared an expansion of Bitcoin assets. The company recently increased its funding to 12.3 million Canadian dollars (about 1.25 billion won) and laid the financial foundation to expand its existing 181 BTC holdings. The main purpose is to expand business operations based on Bitcoin.

With Trump recently showing a Bitcoin-friendly approach, the trend of global companies consecutively adopting Bitcoin as an asset signifies the spread of 'BTC Treasury' strategies. The reality of being incorporated into institutional financial portfolios beyond the view of being a volatile asset is throwing significant meaning across the cryptocurrency industry.
