The publicly traded Japanese company Remixpoint plans to utilize its balance sheet to acquire $3.2 million in Bitcoin (BTC).
According to an official announcement from Remixpoint and a report by the Japanese media outlet CoinPost, the firm intends to invest 500 million yen in BTC purchases by the year’s end.
Remixpoint Acquires Bitcoin, ETH, and Altcoins
In September of this year, the company allocated approximately $5.3 million towards BTC, Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Avalanche (AVAX) assets.
Additionally, it has accumulated smaller holdings in Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP as part of its strategy to diversify its investment portfolio.
The firm was previously the owner of the BITpoint cryptocurrency exchange, which it divested to the securities and crypto conglomerate SBI in 2023.

Remixpoint indicated that it would provide full disclosure if the new BTC acquisition “has a significant impact on [its] consolidated financial results.”
The firm noted that it was reacting to “upward price trends” following the Bitcoin halving event that occurred earlier this year. It also stated:

It emphasized the necessity to diversify and “reduce” its “exposure to yen-denominated assets.”
Documentation from the company reveals that Remixpoint’s unrealized gains across its entire crypto portfolio have already surpassed the $5.3 million threshold.
Earlier this year, the firm articulated its intention to employ its crypto acquisition strategy to mitigate “the risk of fluctuations in the value of the currencies it holds.”
