Another Company Announces Large Bitcoin Purchase: Here is its Average Purchase Price

Bitcoin mining company Hut 8 (HUT) made an ambitious move by purchasing 990 Bitcoins for approximately $100 million at an average price of $101,710 per coin. The latest purchase brings the company’s total Bitcoin reserves to 10,096 BTC worth approximately $1 billion, placing Hut 8 among the top 10 institutional BTC holders. The Miami-based firm plans to use its Bitcoin reserves through a variety of strategies, including options, commitments, and puts. “Today, the market recognizes and values our strategic reserve, which effectively lowers our cost of capital and strengthens our financial position,” Hut 8 CEO Asher Genoot said in a statement. Genoot also noted that the company is open to purchasing more Bitcoin when market conditions are favorable. The acquisition comes after Hut 8 recently launched a $500 million intra-market equity issuance program, the proceeds of which are earmarked for BTC purchases and other investments.

These strategies are proving effective as miners face shrinking profit margins following the recent Bitcoin halving. For example, MARA raised $1 billion in convertible debt last month, giving investors exposure to BTC equity instead of traditional interest income. Hut 8 sees its Bitcoin reserve as more than just a store of value. “We view our strategic reserve as a dynamic financial asset that can generate returns beyond a simple price appreciation,” CEO Genoot said. *This is not investment advice.
