币界网报道：Planet Ventures, a Canadian investment firm, has purchased 3.41 Bitcoin for approximately CAD$500,000 (around $370,000 USD) as part of its treasury diversification strategy. The Vancouver-based company, which focuses on early-stage technology and blockchain investments, disclosed the acquisition in a recent regulatory filing. According to CEO Chris Reid, the move reflects the firm's confidence in Bitcoin's long-term value proposition as a store of wealth and hedge against inflation. The purchased BTC represents about 2.5% of Planet Ventures' current cash reserves and will be held in cold storage. Reid emphasized that this marks the company's first direct cryptocurrency investment, though it has previously invested in blockchain startups through its venture capital arm. The acquisition comes amid growing institutional interest in Bitcoin, with several publicly traded companies adding BTC to their balance sheets in recent months. Planet Ventures plans to evaluate additional crypto investments based on market conditions and regulatory developments. The firm's stock (TSXV: PXI) saw a 7% increase following the announcement, outperforming the broader Canadian market indices. Analysts note that while the investment amount is relatively small compared to corporate Bitcoin purchases by firms like MicroStrategy, it signals increasing mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrency among traditional investment companies.
