Genius Group Resumes Bitcoin Buying, Adds 52% to Treasury

Genius Group, a prominent AI-powered education company, has resumed its Bitcoin accumulation strategy following a favorable ruling by the US Court of Appeals. The court's decision on May 6, 2025, lifted previous restrictions that had been imposed on the company's cryptocurrency activities. These restrictions were a result of a dispute surrounding Genius Group’s merger with Fatbrain AI, which included provisions barring the firm from purchasing additional Bitcoin. The company had been legally prevented from buying Bitcoin due to a preliminary injunction and temporary restraining order issued by a New York District court on March 13.

The resumption of Bitcoin purchases marks a significant milestone for Genius Group, as it has now achieved a 100 Bitcoin milestone. The company increased its Bitcoin treasury by 52% over the past month, acquiring 34 Bitcoins. This brings the total Bitcoin investment to $10.06 million, with an average purchasing price of $100,600 per Bitcoin. The company's Bitcoin-first treasury approach aligns with its broader corporate strategy of integrating cryptocurrency into its business model.

Roger Hamilton, CEO of Genius Group, highlighted the company's pioneering role in the Bitcoin treasury space. "We launched our Bitcoin Treasury in November 2025, and believe we were one of the first Bitcoin Treasury companies on the NYSE American. We also believe that subsequent to our announcement, we were one of the only companies legally prevented from buying Bitcoin by a US court," Hamilton stated. The company's renewed Bitcoin acquisition strategy began on May 22 with a $2.7 million Bitcoin investment announcement.

Genius Group operates as an AI-powered education platform serving 5.8 million users across over 100 countries. The company delivers education and acceleration solutions through its Genius City model and maintains an online digital marketplace featuring AI training programs, AI tools, and AI talent resources. The 100 Bitcoin milestone marks substantial progress toward the company’s stated goal of accumulating 1,000 Bitcoin for its corporate treasury. Hamilton posted on X that the company is rebuilding its Bitcoin treasury and noted the 52% increase in the first month since the injunction was lifted while reaffirming the path toward 1,000 Bitcoin.

This legal victory allows Genius Group to continue its strategy of integrating Bitcoin into its corporate treasury, reflecting a broader trend among companies seeking to diversify their financial holdings with cryptocurrency. The company's ability to manage its treasury according to board and shareholder preferences is a significant development, as it aligns with the growing acceptance of Bitcoin as a legitimate asset class. The 100 Bitcoin milestone is a testament to Genius Group's commitment to this strategy and its confidence in the long-term value of Bitcoin.
