TLDR
- MetalMark carries Bitcoin on its balance sheet today
- MetalMark will indefinitely buy more as cash permits
- A return to sound money principles: Inventory in gold, Bitcoin on the balance sheet
MetalMark, a new pioneer in minting collectible 24-karat gold banknotes known as Aurums®, is proud to announce the approval of a corporate treasury diversification strategy involving the long-term acquisition and holding of Bitcoin. This strategic decision reflects the founders’ deep commitment to the principles of sound money.
"MetalMark was founded to create value for collectors built on a foundation of literal gold. We love art, we love gold, and we value true scarcity, so we make and sell rare art with gold. This precious metal has been treasured and valued throughout human history for its beauty, scarcity, and versatility. Bitcoin represents a more perfect digital counterpart to gold, and by diversifying our corporate assets into Bitcoin, we’re confident we’ll be on the right side of math, helping to build even more value into the business faster than would be traditionally possible," said Josh Alley, President of MetalMark.
"We love art, we love gold, and we value true scarcity"
Over the past 15 years, Bitcoin has emerged as one of the best-performing assets of its generation, challenging traditional corporate treasury practices. MetalMark believes this trend will continue as Bitcoin’s fundamentals remain robust and global adoption accelerates.
"With historic institutional adoption, macroeconomic and regulatory conditions favoring the asset, meteoric inflows to ETFs, a pro-Bitcoin US administration, and the global headwinds of nation-state competition, Bitcoin’s relevance is only expanding," Alley added. "Bitcoin is an avalanche of a snowball that is irrational to ignore."
MetalMark has already begun implementing this strategy, starting with the acquisition of 1 BTC. Moving forward, the company plans to make additional purchases of Bitcoin from cash reserves, with no predetermined upper limit. Decisions on the timing of future acquisitions will be made at the discretion of the management team.
“This is not just a declaration of intent – we’ve already added Bitcoin to our balance sheet. Our inventory is largely gold, and our ledger will hold an increasing supply of Bitcoin as an essential complement to gold. MetalMark will continue to acquire Bitcoin over time as cash and market conditions permit, without regard to short-term price fluctuation or volatility,” Alley concluded.
“Bitcoin is an avalanche of a snowball that is irrational to ignore.”
