Altvest Capital（ALV）成为非洲第一家采用比特币（BTC）作为战略财政资产的公司

Altvest表示，它按照美国战略（MSTR）和日本的Metaplanet（3350）制定的一条路径购买了一家比特币。

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.

该公司在周五的新闻稿中宣布，总部位于约翰内斯堡的投资公司Altvest Capital（ALV）已成为非洲第一家采用比特币（BTC）作为战略财政资产的公司。

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，它已经为其战略财政部购买了一个比特币，这是在美国的战略（MSTR）和日本的Metaplanet（Metaplanet（3350）铺平的道路上）购买的。

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，该公司以超过1 BTC的价格支付了180万兰特（98,200美元），并且没有计划购买其他加密货币。

“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.

该公司表示：“在对加密货币市场进行了广泛审查之后，Altvest得出结论，比特币是唯一符合其长期财政部分配的严格投资标准的数字资产。”

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.

公司越来越多地将比特币作为战略财政资产。迈克尔·塞勒（Michael Saylor）的战略（以前称为Microstrategy）是第一家采取此举的公司，并于2020年开始购买BTC。现在，它拥有478,740比特币，价值超过470亿美元，以当前价格为470亿美元。

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.”

这家南非投资公司表示，获得比特币的决定“主要是由保持股东价值，减轻货币折旧风险以及获得全球认可的价值存储的目标的目标。”

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.
