Guide to Bitcoin Reserves Management: How Legal Frameworks Influence Financial Planning Strategies on a Global Scale
In the ever-evolving world of finance, a new trend is emerging: Bitcoin treasury companies. These innovative entities are redefining the landscape of investment, offering unique advantages to investors across the globe.
One such company is H100 Group, which has positioned itself as Sweden's first Bitcoin-native public company. H100's shares are ISK-compatible, allowing Swedish investors to hold H100 stock in accounts taxed at a low flat annual rate of approximately 0.89% on total portfolio value.
Across the English Channel, The Blockchain Group has reintroduced itself as Europe's first Bitcoin treasury company, positioning its shares to qualify for France's PEA-PME wrapper. This move offers French investors similar tax benefits.
On the other side of the globe, Metaplanet Inc., a leading Bitcoin-treasury company, has made significant strides in Japan. Metaplanet, which transitioned from a struggling hotel operator into a financial vehicle for long-term Bitcoin accumulation, has benefited from Japan's ultra-low interest rates and the lack of a domestic spot Bitcoin ETF. This has funneled retail investment into equities, providing Metaplanet with an opportunity to raise capital.
Metaplanet raised capital through both equity and debt, most notably a zero-coupon ¥2B bond redeemable at a 3% premium. The company's shares are NISA-eligible, meaning retail investors pay 0% tax on gains and dividends.
Strategy (NASDAQ: MSTR) has also made a significant impact in the Bitcoin treasury space. The company has acquired over 592,000 BTC as of June 2025 through a dynamic capital stack built specifically for Bitcoin exposure. Strategy's capital stack includes Convertible Notes, $STRF, $STRK, $STRD, and Common Equity ($MSTR).
In Latin America, Méliuz (BVMF: CASH3) holds the largest corporate Bitcoin holding, raising $32.4 million in a follow-on share offering to acquire 275.43 BTC. Bitcoin offers a clear appeal as a hard-money hedge for Brazilian investors due to high inflation and elevated interest rates.
Closer to home, The Smarter Web Company emerged in 2025 as the UK's first true Bitcoin treasury company and quickly became one of the most explosive public listings in British market history. LQWD Technologies (TSXV: LQWD) has positioned itself as Canada's only Lightning-native Bitcoin treasury company, raising capital through TSXV placements and follow-on raises post-IPO.
Companies like Metaplanet, ALTBG, and Strategy are engineering Bitcoin accumulation through local advantage. ALTBG completed premium-priced equity placements and launched a €300M ATM with TOBAM.
The rise of Bitcoin treasury companies has exposed the importance of jurisdiction in shaping outcomes, capital access, product design, investor base composition, and narrative momentum. As these companies continue to grow and evolve, they are likely to reshape the investment landscape further.
The next corporate advantage will come from balance sheet design, not software margins. Bitcoin-native equities are public companies that structure their entire balance sheet around Bitcoin, offering unique opportunities for investors seeking exposure to the digital asset.
In conclusion, Bitcoin treasury companies are revolutionizing the investment landscape, offering tax-efficient ways for retail investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin and providing unique opportunities for companies to structure their balance sheets around the digital asset. As these companies continue to grow and evolve, they are likely to reshape the investment landscape further.
