KULR Technology Group, Inc. (KULR) stock surged 14.33% during Thursday's trading session, following the company's announcement of launching a Bitcoin Treasury strategy. The energy management platform leader completed the purchase of 217.18 Bitcoin (BTC) for approximately $21 million, at an average price of $96,556.53 per BTC.
This Bitcoin acquisition marks the first step in KULR's plan to allocate up to 90% of its surplus cash to Bitcoin, as revealed on December 4th. The company has selected Coinbase's Prime platform to provide custody, USDC, and self-custodial wallet services for its Bitcoin holdings.
Investors have welcomed KULR's move to invest in Bitcoin as a diversification strategy and a potential hedge against inflation and currency debasement. The company's embrace of cryptocurrency as a store of value appears to have boosted market confidence, driving the stock's substantial gain.
