KULR’s Rationale for Increasing Bitcoin Reserves

Michael Mo, CEO of KULR Technology, explained the rationale behind the move.

KULR has acquired 213.43 BTC for ~ $21 million at ~ $98,246 per #bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 93.7 % YTD. As of 1/6/25, we hodl 430.61 $BTC acquired for ~ $42 million at ~ $97,391 per bitcoin. $KULR https://t.co/L4LS7DtL4M pic.twitter.com/INaGxpNv28

He stated, “The distinct characteristics of BTC entail prospects for further serious interest and would stand guard against developing current events such as geopolitics, inflation, and any other macro-and political events impacting the developed economies.”

The limited supply of Bitcoin, capped at 21 million coins, makes it an appealing asset for companies aiming to hedge against inflation and economic instability.

KULR views its Bitcoin Holdings as a key component of its financial resilience, supporting operational growth and long-term planning.

Institutional Adoption of Bitcoin Gains Momentum

The adoption of Bitcoin by KULR Technology Group aligns with a broader institutional trend.

Major companies like MicroStrategy and Tesla have incorporated Bitcoin into their treasury strategies, reflecting the growing acceptance of cryptocurrency within the corporate world.
