, making it the first German firm to adopt a full BTC treasury model.
The pivot was announced in a press release on Oct. 21, and kickstarted by an investment from UTXO Management for approximately $3.48 million allocated to pure-play Bitcoin purchases.
Aifinyo’s Head of Bitcoin Strategy, Garry Krugljakow, said in a statement that the move to establish a Bitcoin treasury or keep Bitcoin on their balance sheet as “inflation protection and strategic reserve” was something that “every DAX company will have to consider” within the next five years.
Pure-play Bitcoin Treasury
The firm says it will use a pure-play Bitcoin treasury protocol modeled after the one established by Michael Saylor with Strategy, the world’s largest Bitcoin treasury with more than 640,000 BTC on its books.
Per the press release, this strategy will involve continuous Bitcoin accumulation operating cashflows and no trading with the goal of establishing long-term holdings on their balance sheet.

Ultimately, Aifinyo says it intends to expand its fintech services further into business accounts and credit cards in 2026 with the stated goal of accumulating over 10,000 Bitcoin by 2027.
