AI firm Genius Group’s Bitcoin holdings are now worth more than its market cap

Genius Group, a Singapore-based artificial intelligence and education company, has made significant strides in its crypto holdings, purchasing an additional $2 million worth of Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to 440 BTC, valued at $42 million. As of January 31, 2025, the company’s Bitcoin treasury is now worth more than its own market capitalization, which stands at just $33.1 million. This means that for every $100 in Genius Group stock, the company holds $139 worth of Bitcoin.

The firm has been aggressively acquiring Bitcoin as part of its “Bitcoin-first” strategy. Over the past few months, Genius has invested a total of $40 million into Bitcoin, and it plans to continue increasing this amount to $120 million. The strategy is inspired by MicroStrategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, which has made Bitcoin a core part of its financial strategy. Genius Group’s director, Thomas Power, has expressed confidence in following MicroStrategy’s lead, believing that embracing Bitcoin will position the company as a pioneer among potential NYSE American-listed companies adopting similar strategies for the benefit of shareholders.

Genius Group’s growing Bitcoin treasury, acquired at an average price of $95,519 per BTC, is a key component of its overall financial strategy, which includes using reserves, an ATM facility, and $19 million in crypto-backed loans from Arch Lending to increase their Bitcoin holdings. The company’s decision to allocate such a large portion of its capital into Bitcoin positions it as one of the more unique players in the AI and tech space, with a rapidly growing exposure to the cryptocurrency market.

As of now, with Bitcoin trading at approximately $104,893, Genius Group’s Bitcoin holdings are valued at $46 million, significantly surpassing the company’s market cap. This strategic move highlights the firm’s commitment to the long-term value of Bitcoin, while potentially benefitting from both the appreciation of its digital assets and the broader trend of corporate Bitcoin adoption.
