Altvest Capital（ALV）成為非洲第一家採用比特幣（BTC）作為戰略財政資產的公司

Altvest表示，它按照美國戰略（MSTR）和日本的Metaplanet（3350）制定的一條路徑購買了一家比特幣。

Johannesburg-based investment company Altvest Capital (ALV) has become the first listed company in Africa to adopt bitcoin (BTC) as a strategic treasury asset, the company announced in a press release on Friday.

該公司在周五的新聞稿中宣布，總部位於約翰內斯堡的投資公司Altvest Capital（ALV）已成為非洲第一家採用比特幣（BTC）作為戰略財政資產的公司。

Altvest stated that it has purchased one bitcoin for its strategic treasury, following a path paved by Strategy (MSTR) in the U.S. and Metaplanet (3350) in Japan.

Altvest表示，它已經為其戰略財政部購買了一個比特幣，這是在美國的戰略（MSTR）和日本的Metaplanet（Metaplanet（3350）鋪平的道路上）購買的。

The company paid 1.8 million rand ($98,200) for just over 1 BTC, and it has no plans to purchase other cryptocurrencies, the announcement noted.

公告指出，該公司以超過1 BTC的價格支付了180萬蘭特（98,200美元），並且沒有計劃購買其他加密貨幣。

“After an extensive review of the cryptocurrency market, Altvest has concluded that bitcoin is the only digital asset that meets its stringent investment criteria for a long-term treasury allocation,” the company said.

該公司表示：“在對加密貨幣市場進行了廣泛審查之後，Altvest得出結論，比特幣是唯一符合其長期財政部分配的嚴格投資標準的數字資產。”

Corporates are increasingly adding bitcoin as a strategic treasury asset. Michael Saylor’s Strategy (formerly known as MicroStrategy) was the first company to make the move, starting to buy BTC in 2020. It now holds 478,740 bitcoin, valued at over $47 billion at current prices.

公司越來越多地將比特幣作為戰略財政資產。邁克爾·塞勒（Michael Saylor）的戰略（以前稱為Microstrategy）是第一家採取此舉的公司，並於2020年開始購買BTC。現在，它擁有478,740比特幣，價值超過470億美元，以當前價格為470億美元。

The South African investment firm stated that the decision to acquire bitcoin was “primarily driven by the objective to preserve shareholder value, mitigating currency depreciation risks, and gaining exposure to a globally recognized store of value.”

這家南非投資公司表示，獲得比特幣的決定“主要是由保持股東價值，減輕貨幣折舊風險以及獲得全球認可的價值存儲的目標的目標。”

Since Tokyo-based Metaplanet began buying bitcoin in April last year, it has acquired 2,031 tokens valued at nearly $200 million, and its shares became the best-performing Japanese equity over the past 12 months, rising 3,900%. Earlier this month, investment bank KBW initiated coverage of Strategy with an outperform rating and a price target of $560. The shares are currently trading at $323.92.

自從去年4月，總部位於東京的Metaplanet開始購買比特幣，它已收購了價值近2億美元的2031個代幣，其股票已成為過去12個月表現最好的日本股票，增長了3,900％。本月早些時候，投資銀行KBW以跑贏大盤的評級和560美元的價格目標開始了戰略的覆蓋範圍。這些股票目前的交易價格為323.92美元。

Altvest shares were trading down more than 9% at 590 rand at the time of publication.

出版時，Altvest股票以590蘭特的價格下跌了9％以上。
