Capital B acquired one bitcoin for €60,000 and now holds 3,140 BTC, according to an announcement posted on August 3. The European asset manager ranks as the second-largest corporate Bitcoin holder on the continent by count.
Capital B's 3,140 BTC position places it 25th globally among publicly disclosed corporate treasuries, according to Bitcoin Treasuries data. The purchase at €60,000 per coin occurred as institutional investors continue to build positions across major Bitcoin wallets. The company's stated yield on its holdings is 2.13 percent per BTC annually.
Capital B operates as an investment firm focused on digital assets and alternative yields. Its treasury size has grown steadily through a strategy of regular acquisitions, contrasting with the lump-sum purchases some publicly listed companies employ. The firm's yield metric indicates it may be earning returns through lending, staking, or other on-chain protocols applied to its holdings.
Corporate Bitcoin treasuries have attracted attention from allocators and policymakers as a measure of mainstream institutional adoption. MicroStrategy and Marathon Digital remain the largest corporate holders globally, with positions exceeding 200,000 coins each. Capital B's position exists alongside broader European institutional appetite for Bitcoin that accelerated since 2024, when regulatory clarity under MiCA and the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the European Union broadened asset manager participation.
The single-coin purchase may appear modest against Capital B's total position, but it represents ongoing accumulation rather than a pause in deployment. At current market prices, the firm's 3,140 BTC treasury is valued in the billions of euros. Capital B has disclosed yield-generating strategies applied to its holdings, meaning the treasury functions both as a speculative position and as a productive asset.
At 3,140 BTC, Capital B's holdings total approximately 0.015 percent of bitcoin's circulating supply. Only one European firm holds more corporate BTC.
The document to watch is Capital B's next quarterly disclosure of its total holdings and acquisition activity, which will indicate whether the firm continues its current acquisition pace or accelerates deployment following this purchase.
