Semler Scientific and H100 Group Make Strategic Bitcoin Moves
Medical technology firm Semler Scientific disclosed that it acquired 455 Bitcoin between May 13 and May 22, 2025, using proceeds from its at-the-market (ATM) offering program. The purchase totalled $50 million at an average price of $109,801 per Bitcoin, including fees and related costs. The acquisition brings Semler’s total Bitcoin holdings to 4,264 BTC, valued at $474.4 million based on the spot price from Coinbase as of 4 p.m. ET on May 22. The company’s total investment in Bitcoin stands at $390 million, with an average cost basis of $91,471 per coin. Semler began accumulating Bitcoin in 2024 as part of a broader strategy to integrate digital assets into its balance sheet. The firm has not disclosed future purchase plans but has signalled continued interest in Bitcoin as a long-term treasury asset. H100 Group Becomes Sweden’s First Public BTC Treasury Firm In a separate announcement, Swedish investment firm H100 Group AB said it acquired 4.39 Bitcoin, becoming the first publicly listed company in Sweden to hold Bitcoin as part of its corporate treasury. The company made the disclosure via its official X account, stating that the acquisition is part of a long-term strategy to align with principles of “sovereignty, resilience, and digital-first innovation.” No financial details were provided regarding the timing or cost of the purchase. While the amount is modest compared to other corporate holdings, the move positions H100 Group as an early adopter of Bitcoin among publicly listed firms in Sweden. The announcement follows a global trend of companies adding Bitcoin to their balance sheets as a store of value or inflation hedge. We’ve acquired 4.39 BTC — officially becoming Sweden’s first publicly listed Bitcoin Treasury company. This marks the beginning of a long-term strategy to align our balance sheet with the values of sovereignty, resilience, and digital-first innovation. pic.twitter.com/KPFc0H26uv — H100 (@H100Group) May 22, 2025 Broader Corporate Interest in Bitcoin Grows The recent actions by both companies reflect continued institutional interest in Bitcoin amid growing regulatory clarity and increased access to crypto markets. Semler Scientific joins the ranks of U.S. firms with multi-million-dollar digital asset reserves, while H100 Group opens the door for similar strategies within Europe. Though volatile, Bitcoin remains a focal point for treasury diversification, especially among firms seeking alternatives to fiat-based reserves. The long-term impact of such moves will depend on future market conditions and evolving financial regulations.
