Japanese Energy Firm Remixpoint Amplifies Its Crypto Holdings by 8,000% Within 9 Months.

Remixpoint Increases Crypto Reserves by Over 8,000% as Market Conditions Improve Post-Trump Victory

Remixpoint (3825), a Tokyo-based energy consultancy firm, has massively expanded its cryptocurrency holdings by over 8,000% in the nine months ending December 31, a move driven by a more optimistic outlook for cryptocurrency regulation following Donald Trump’s U.S. election victory.

As of year-end 2024, Remixpoint held 5.8 billion yen ($38 million) worth of crypto assets, up from just 68 million yen earlier in the year. By Thursday, the company had spent approximately 9 billion yen ($58 million) on digital assets, pushing it closer to its target of 10 billion yen ($65 million). The exact current value of its holdings has not been disclosed.

Though Remixpoint is primarily known for its energy consulting business, the firm made a strategic shift to cryptocurrency investment in the past year, seeing it as a hedge against the declining value of the Japanese yen. This strategy mirrors that of Metaplanet, a Japanese investment firm that saw its stock price soar after announcing a similar Bitcoin investment program in April.

The bulk of Remixpoint’s crypto holdings are in Bitcoin, but the company has also diversified into Ether (ETH), Solana (SOL), XRP, and Dogecoin (DOGE).

In its fiscal third-quarter earnings report, Remixpoint revealed a profit of 1.35 billion yen, alongside an unrealized gain of 658 million yen from its cryptocurrency investments. The company has started recognizing changes in the valuation of its digital assets as revenue, a practice it began in November 2024.

The sharp increase in Remixpoint’s crypto holdings coincides with the post-election bull market in cryptocurrency, which has been fueled by a friendlier regulatory climate for digital assets in the U.S. Remixpoint’s shares have skyrocketed by over 360% since Trump’s election, and the firm has significantly boosted its Bitcoin holdings to a total of 125.2 BTC.

Despite the strong performance, Remixpoint’s stock dropped by 15% on Friday, even as the broader Nikkei 225 index fell just 0.79%.
