Europe’s Bitcoin Hoarder Strikes Again: 8 More Coins in the Vault!

by

The Great Bitcoin Grab

  • Capital ₿, the Parisian treasure hunters, snag another 8 BTC-because who needs gold when you can have digital glitter?
  • Their strategy? Buy a little, buy a lot, and never stop-it’s like a crypto version of a snack binge.
  • Meanwhile, MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor is over there stretching orange dots, whatever that means.

In a move that screams “we’re not done yet,” Capital ₿, the self-proclaimed guardians of Europe’s first Bitcoin treasury, dropped €0.5 million on 8 BTC this Monday. That’s €60,934 per coin, which is roughly the price of a small Parisian apartment-or a really fancy cheese collection. Alexandre Laizet, the Board Director of Bitcoin Strategy (yes, that’s a real job), proudly announced on X: “We bought more Bitcoin. Again. Still.”

With this latest haul, Capital ₿ now sits on a cozy pile of 2,844 BTC, valued at €264.4 million. Their average purchase price? A cool €92,971 per coin. That’s what happens when you’re playing the long game-or just really, really like Bitcoin.

Where did they get the cash? Oh, just a casual share sale priced at €0.71 per share, raising €0.6 million. They issued 788,190 new shares, because why not dilute when you’re on a Bitcoin binge? The CEO got the green light from shareholders back in June 2025, so it’s all above board-or at least, above the boardroom table.

Laizet couldn’t resist boasting: “We’ve made a BTC Yield of 0.29%, gained 8.1 BTC, and pocketed €0.5M since January.” Impressive, considering the crypto market’s mood swings make a teenager’s look stable.

The Art of Accumulation: A Masterclass in Hoarding

Capital ₿’s strategy is straight out of the MicroStrategy playbook-buy a little, buy a lot, and never stop. But with a European twist, of course. In March, they grabbed 2 BTC at €61,660 each. February? 6 BTC at €55,270 and 5 BTC at €64,124. And let’s not forget their September 2025 splurge: 551 BTC at €99,272 each. It’s like they’re collecting stamps, but way more expensive.

This mix of small and large purchases is their secret sauce-gradually building their stash while keeping the average price in check. It’s the financial equivalent of “slow and steady wins the race,” except with more zeros.

When Corporations Go Crypto: Market Shenanigans

Corporate Bitcoin buying is the new black, and everyone’s doing it. Michael Saylor, the oracle of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), hinted at more Bitcoin buys with a cryptic “Stretch the Orange Dots.” Meanwhile, Bitcoin jumped $1,800 in half an hour on Monday, because why not? It briefly hit $74,300, leaving everyone else wondering if they missed the memo.

The crypto market held steady despite global chaos, with Bitcoin trading around $73,208-up 2% in 24 hours. Capital ₿’s latest purchase is just another brick in their digital fortress, proving that their long-term approach is more marathon than sprint. It’s also a masterclass for other institutions dipping their toes into the crypto pool: buy slowly, buy steadily, and don’t panic when the price fluctuates like a yo-yo on caffeine.
