The company used cash reserves, ATM sales, and a $10 million loan from Arch Lending to fund the purchase. CEO Roger Hamilton expressed satisfaction with the Bitcoin strategy’s progress and its positive impact on shareholder value.

Genius has introduced BTC Yield as a performance metric, reporting a 1,649% BTC Yield in its Q4 2024 report. At the end of December, its Bitcoin holdings were valued at $30.4 million, with a market cap of $40.6 million.
