  • The Blockchain Group and the Smarter Web Company have increased their exposure to Bitcoin.
  • US-based healthcare technology company Semler Scientific also reported a fresh Bitcoin purchase of 187 BTC.
  • Earlier in the day, Metaplanet announced adding 2,204 BTC to its treasury.

France-based The Blockchain Group and the United Kingdom’s Smarter Web Company have increased their exposure to Bitcoin, joining a growing number of corporates bolstering digital asset reserves.

In a Monday announcement, The Blockchain Group disclosed the purchase of 116 Bitcoin for approximately €10.7 million ($12.55 million).

Meanwhile, the Smarter Web Company announced it had acquired 226.42 BTC for £17.9 million ($24.34 million).

The acquisitions took place at an average cost of roughly $106,000 and $106,750 per coin, respectively.

Following the purchases, The Blockchain Group’s Bitcoin holdings now stand at 1,904 BTC, while the Smarter Web Company holds around 1,000 BTC.

Alexandre Laizet, deputy CEO of The Blockchain Group, stated in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that the firm’s Bitcoin yield in 2025 had reached 1,348.8%.

The Smarter Web Company reported a year-to-date yield of 26,242%.

Semler Scientific also buys BTC

Also on Monday, US-based healthcare technology company Semler Scientific reported a fresh Bitcoin purchase of 187 BTC for approximately $20 million, according to an 8-K filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Nasdaq-listed firm acquired the coins at an average price of $106,906 per bitcoin between June 4 and July 2.

As of July 2, Semler said it had sold 4.1 million shares under the ATM program, raising $156.6 million in net proceeds.

The company’s total Bitcoin holdings now stand at 4,636 BTC, acquired at an average price of $92,753 per coin.

Based on current market prices, Semler is sitting on approximately $72 million in unrealized gains, with total acquisition costs — including fees and expenses — amounting to $430 million.

The corporate rush for Bitcoin

The uptick in corporate Bitcoin purchases reflects a broader trend driven by favorable market conditions, ETF inflows, and rising institutional interest.

Firms such as Strategy — the world’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin — continue to lead this movement.

Strategy on Monday disclosed that its unrealized gains had reached $14 billion in the second quarter of 2025, surpassing prior expectations of $13 billion.

The company’s latest acquisition, announced on June 30, involved the purchase of 4,980 BTC for $531.1 million.

Separately, Japan’s Metaplanet added 2,204 BTC to its treasury on Monday, spending $237 million.

The company now holds 15,555 BTC at an average price of approximately $99,985 per coin.

The continued accumulation by public companies underscores the growing perception of Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset.

As market participants await Q3 activity, corporate interest appears to be sustaining momentum amid macroeconomic uncertainty and evolving digital asset regulation.
