TechFlow, April 19 — According to CoinPost, ANAP Holdings, the parent company of Japanese apparel brand ANAP, announced the purchase of approximately 200 million yen worth of bitcoin. The company acquired 16.6591 BTC through its subsidiary ANAP Lightning Capital, established in February this year, for a total transaction amount of 199.975 million yen.
ANAP Holdings stated that this investment decision was based on bitcoin's characteristics as "digital gold," emphasizing its secure mechanisms underpinned by blockchain technology and supply management achieved through proof-of-work (PoW), halving events, and a capped issuance limit. Additionally, the launch of bitcoin ETFs in the United States and Hong Kong, along with strategic discussions regarding bitcoin in the U.S., were also contributing factors to this decision.
