Capital B SA has added another five bitcoins to its balance sheet, pushing forward a treasury strategy that has made the French firm one of the most closely watched corporate bitcoin holders in Europe. The Capital B bitcoin acquisition, confirmed on August 17, 2026, cost the company €0.28 million and brings its total holdings to 3,145 BTC, purchased over time for €284.2 million.

Key takeaways

  • Capital B bought 5 bitcoins for €0.28 million on August 17, 2026.
  • Total holdings now stand at 3,145 BTC, acquired for €284.2 million.
  • The company posted a 2.14% BTC yield since the start of the year, with a year-to-date gain of 60.3 BTC worth €3.3 million.
  • Capital B completed the full conversion of its B-01 convertible bonds, issuing 28,687,362 new shares at €0.495 each.

Capital B’s Bitcoin Acquisition Strengthens Treasury Holdings

Capital B’s latest purchase is small in size but consistent in intent: the company keeps adding bitcoin in incremental steps rather than large one-off buys. The five bitcoins acquired on August 17, 2026, for €0.28 million bring its cumulative stack to 3,145 BTC, built up through a total investment of €284.2 million. That steady accumulation pattern is part of what the company describes as its strategy to strengthen its position in Europe’s bitcoin treasury space.
