Two prominent European technology companies have significantly increased their Bitcoin reserves this week. The Blockchain Group, a French digital asset firm, purchased 【116 BTC】 for approximately €10.7 million ($12.55 million), while UK-based Smarter Web Company acquired 【226.42 BTC】 for £17.9 million ($24.34 million). These transactions occurred as Bitcoin continues demonstrating strong performance in corporate treasury portfolios.
The Blockchain Group's latest acquisition brings its total holdings to 【1,904 BTC】, acquired at an average price of $106,000 per coin. Remarkably, the company reports a Bitcoin yield of 【1,348.8%】 for 2025. Meanwhile, Smarter Web Company now holds 【1,000 BTC】 with an even more impressive yield of 【26,242%】 year-to-date.
——This strategic accumulation reflects growing confidence in Bitcoin as a treasury asset among European firms—— said industry analyst Mark Williams. The yield metric, pioneered by Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), measures how effectively companies increase Bitcoin backing per share.
These European acquisitions follow similar moves by major players worldwide. Japan's Metaplanet recently added 【2,204 BTC】 to its reserves, bringing its total to 【15,555 BTC】. The global leader Strategy reported 【$14 billion】 in unrealized gains from its Bitcoin holdings in Q2 2025.
Interestingly, while tech giants like Meta and Amazon have avoided Bitcoin treasuries, specialized firms continue embracing the digital asset. The Blockchain Group's deputy CEO Alexandre Laizet emphasized their commitment through social media, showcasing the company's substantial returns.
First introduced in November 2024, Bitcoin yield has become a crucial metric for evaluating corporate cryptocurrency strategies. It compares the growth of Bitcoin reserves against share dilution, providing investors with insights into treasury management effectiveness.
As of press time, Bitcoin maintains strong institutional interest despite market fluctuations. The recent European purchases demonstrate how regional players are adopting strategies pioneered by global leaders, potentially signaling broader acceptance of cryptocurrency in corporate finance.
