Quantum Biopharma bolsters Bitcoin treasury

Quantum Biopharma has purchased an additional $1 million worth of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, the Canadian biotechnology company said. The buys take Quantum’s total cryptocurrency holdings to approximately $4.5 million, according to a May 19 press release. The biotech company plans to stake a portion of its crypto to generate revenue. Quantum expects that holding a treasury of Bitcoin ( BTC ) and other crypto assets will “provide a return on investment for shareholders and provide some hedge against the Canadian dollar,” it said . Shares of Quantum’s stock, QNTM, rose by approximately 25% following the announcement, according to data from Google Finance. Quantum Biopharma’s stock rose on the announcement.

In March, NASDAQ-listed biopharmaceutical company Atai Life Sciences tipped plans to buy $5 million worth of Bitcoin . In a March 20 X post , Atai’s founder, Christian Angermayer, said “Bitcoin should be a part of ANY corporate treasury – especially, in fact, in the biotech sector.” Angermayer added in a blog post that Bitcoin can help the biotech hedge against inflation and stay solvent during the long periods before drug approvals. Corporate treasuries are now major Bitcoin holders.

It said a Bitcoin treasury will support its plans to expand in Asia through acquisitions by giving Basel “one of the strongest balance sheets among Asia-focused healthcare providers.” Unlike Quantum, however, Basel’s shares dropped significantly on the day of the announcement. Collectively, corporate treasuries hold more than $83 billion in Bitcoin as of May 19, according to data from BitcoinTreasuries.NET. Publicly traded companies are now the largest institutional Bitcoin holders after exchange-traded funds (ETFs), the data shows. Bitcoin can “potentially be a valuable hedge against growing fiscal deficits, currency debasement, and geopolitical risks” for companies, asset manager Fidelity Digital Assets said in a 2024 report.
