The Blockchain Group Raises €63.3 Million to Accelerate Bitcoin Accumulation Strategy
Paris-listed blockchain and data intelligence firm, The Blockchain Group (ALTBG), has secured €63.3 million (approximately $71.9 million) via a convertible bond issuance aimed at expanding its bitcoin (BTC) treasury.
The financing, conducted through the company’s Luxembourg-based subsidiary, underscores a strategic push to grow its bitcoin holdings and strengthen investor confidence.
A notable portion of the funds includes a $5.7 million bitcoin-linked bond subscribed by Moonlight Capital, priced at a 30% premium to the May 23 closing share price of $4.30.
Additionally, strategic investors Fulgur Ventures and UTXO Management fully exercised their rights under Convertible Bonds B-02 (“OCA Tranche 2”) at $0.79 per share, totaling $66 million.
Adam Back, a key stakeholder, converted his entire tranche of OCA Tranche 1 bonds into 14.88 million shares, reinforcing his long-term commitment to the company.
These new proceeds will enable The Blockchain Group to acquire approximately 590 additional bitcoins, which would raise its total BTC holdings to nearly 1,437 coins.
