Established in 2013 and headquartered in San Diego, KULR Technology spans across multiple sectors with its advanced thermal management solutions, primarily in energy storage, electric vehicles, aerospace, and cloud computing. The company is also recognized for its new-age technology, driven by battery safety and thermal energy management, catering to industries demanding high-performance energy solutions.
According to Michael Mo, the CEO of KULR Technology and a renowned advocate for BTC, the company's Bitcoin treasury policy strengthens its financial footing, bolstering operational expansion and long-term capital management through an independent reserving strategy.
He highlighted BTC's unique properties that inherently attract further serious interest and protect against developing current events, such as geopolitics, inflation, and any other macro- and political developments impacting the developed economies.
For a company, BTC's attractiveness as an asset for their treasury is also credited to its limited supply of 21 million coins circulating in the market. Companies like KULR Technology capitalize on this, given its potential for high yields and better liquidity. BTC also acts as a hedge against inflation and economic distress, which aligns with the growing trend among institutions to adopt BTC.
