币界网报道：Semler Scientific (SMLR) has appointed Joe Burnett as its new director of Bitcoin strategy, aiming to expand its BTC holdings to at least 10,000 by year-end 2024, 42,000 by 2026, and 105,000 by 2027. The company currently holds 4,449 BTC worth approximately $462 million. Chairman Eric Semler praised Burnett's expertise, citing his seven-year advocacy for Bitcoin as advanced monetary technology and his prior role at Unchained. Investors responded positively, boosting SMLR's stock by 14% despite Bitcoin's dip below $104,000. However, SMLR's shares remain down 33% YTD, limiting its ability to raise capital through equity sales for further BTC acquisitions. The move signals potential creative financing strategies, possibly mirroring MicroStrategy's approach with preferred shares.
