Three separate announcements on June 30, 2025, revealed that institutional investors' interest in Bitcoin continues unabated. UK-based Vaultz Capital, Japan's Metaplanet, and Europe's leading reserve company The Blockchain Group added thousands of BTC to their coffers, further solidifying Bitcoin's position in the institutional arena.
Vaultz Capital: Adding 50 BTC to the Treasury
London-based cryptocurrency company Vaultz Capital plc. announced that it had purchased an additional 40 BTC as part of its Bitcoin acquisition strategy. The company's total BTC holdings now stand at 50. This purchase, made at an average price of 80,788 pounds (approximately 107,995 dollars) per unit, came with a cost of 3.23 million pounds (approximately 4 million dollars).
Alex Appleton, a member of the company's management team, stated that the purchase was carried out as planned following the fund-raising process announced on June 19. He also mentioned that they plan to invest in hashrate through hardware or cloud mining partnerships to gain access to Bitcoin mining in the near future. Vaultz emphasized that its operational activities are based on participation in the Bitcoin infrastructure and that it aims to generate revenue from block rewards and transaction fees in this regard.
The Blockchain Group: Hosting one of Europe's largest BTC reserves
France-based The Blockchain Group announced on June 30 that it had increased its total BTC reserves to 1,788. The company strengthened its reserves by purchasing an additional 60 BTC for approximately 5.5 million euros. The group also announced that it had achieved a 1,270% return on its BTC assets since the beginning of the year.
The company is said to continue accumulating BTC through various capital increases, share conversions, and private investment programs. Notable transactions include Adam Back's purchase of shares worth 1.16 million euros and an ATM-style capital increase with the TOBAM fund. The Blockchain Group's total BTC value has reached approximately 161.3 million euros.
Metaplanet: Surpassed Tesla, Aiming for the Top
Japan-based Metaplanet purchased an additional 1,005 BTC in four transactions in June. This transaction, which took place at an average unit price of 107,923 dollars, brought the company's BTC reserves to 13,350. As a result, Metaplanet surpassed Tesla's BTC reserves and rose to seventh place in the corporate rankings.
The company financed this purchase with a new bond series issued to restructure its previous bond debt. Evo Fund, a Japanese venture capital firm, both purchased the old bonds and underwrote the new ones. This strategy enabled Metaplanet to both reduce its debt burden and accelerate its BTC purchases. It is speculated that the company could reach its target of 63,000 BTC by year-end.
