The Tokyo Exchange-listed Japanese firm Remixpoint has used its balance sheet to buy another $3.4 million worth of Bitcoin (BTC).
The crypto-keen auto and electricity trading company is the former owner of the crypto exchange BITPoint, which it sold to the securities giant SBI in 2023.
Per a Remixpoint investor relations document posted to its website on May 14 and a report from Japan’s CoinPost, the firm spent 500 million yen on Bitcoin on May 13, paying about 15.23 million yen (104,506) per BTC.
In total, the firm bought BTC 32.83, bringing the sum of its Bitcoin holdings to BTC 648.82.
Remixpoint: Bitcoin Buying Continues
Remixpoint’s BTC portfolio’s book value on May 14 was approximately 8.19 billion yen (56.2 million), with the holdings’ market valuation approximately 9.91 billion yen ($68 million).
The firm has also held on to its seizable Ethereum (ETH) and altcoin portfolio, the release continued.
Last year, the company announced it had bought Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), XRP, and Avalanche (AVAX) coins.
It is unclear if the firm has since sold its AVAX holdings, as it made no mention of the coins in its latest crypto holdings breakdown.
Per the statement, Remixpoint holds:
- ETH 901.45
- SOL 13,920
- XRP 1.19 million
- DOGE 2.8 million
The total value of its crypto holdings, calculated on May 13, was over 11.1 billion yen ($76 million).
Company Remains Crypto-keen
Despite the BITPoint sale, Remixpoint has continued to pursue crypto-related business avenues. The firm began its crypto-buying strategy in 2024.
And earlier this month, Remixpoint announced plans to launch crypto staking and validator business operations via a partnership with Omakase.
The latter is a validator with a record of operating nodes on at least 20 blockchain protocols.
The deal will see Omakase provide Remixpoint with technical support as the firm builds its own validation business arm.
Omakase will also provide operational monitoring and risk management services.
Japanese firms show no sign of slowing their Bitcoin-buying fervor. The famously Bitcoin-keen Metaplanet boosted the size of its own BTC holdings this month.
And TYO-listed gaming firms like Enish and Gumi have also launched ambitious BTC-buying strategies in recent weeks.
