Cosmos Health plans Bitcoin and Ethereum investment strategy
Cosmos Health, a publicly traded healthcare company based in Chicago, has announced its plan to integrate digital assets, specifically Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH), into its treasury reserves.
This decision places Cosmos Health among other notable firms like MicroStrategy, Tesla, and Semler Scientific that have adopted cryptocurrency holdings to diversify their financial assets.
The company highlighted this strategic move as part of its broader commitment to embracing emerging technologies and enhancing financial adaptability.
This announcement comes shortly after Cosmos Health’s acquisition of Cloudscreen, an AI-powered platform specialising in drug repurposing.
The firm noted that including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and potentially other cryptocurrencies in its treasury aligns with its goal to diversify its balance sheet and adapt to evolving market trends.
“Cosmos is a flexible, agile, and forward-looking company. We believe this strategy will help us stand out by making a significant investment in the new era. Alongside our AI capabilities, we are now incorporating crypto assets and continually seeking additional future-focused investments to benefit our shareholders,” emphasised CEO Greg Siokas, highlighting the forward-thinking nature of this decision.
“We view select crypto assets, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, not only as potential hedges against inflation and currency devaluation but also as diversification tools offering substantial upside potential. Accordingly, we look forward to building a sizable reserve in these assets,” he outlined, highlighting the potential advantages of holding such assets.
Following the announcement, Cosmos Health’s shares on Nasdaq rose by 11.13% during Monday’s trading session.
On the same day, MicroStrategy revealed it had acquired 51,780 BTC and plans to raise $1.75 billion to further increase its Bitcoin holdings.
Cosmos Health’s initiative reflects its dedication to integrating innovative technology and strategic financial planning to enhance shareholder value and resilience in the market.
At the time of reporting, the Bitcoin (BTC) price was $91,838.62, and the Ethereum (ETH) price was $3,125.72.
