【Crypto World】Nasdaq-listed Bitcoin financial services provider Strive has just officially announced that they have completed the acquisition of Semler Scientific. This deal is significant — the new merged company now holds a total of 12,797.9 Bitcoins.

What does this number represent? It is the 11th largest publicly traded company in the world by BTC holdings. As institutions and listed companies are increasingly deploying Bitcoin assets, this ranking demonstrates Strive’s ambition in crypto asset allocation.

There have also been management adjustments. Avik Roy has been appointed Chief Strategy Officer, overseeing the company's strategic direction. Semler Scientific’s former Chairman, Eric Semler, has not left but instead joined Strive as an independent director, a smooth transition that is quite rare. Additionally, Bitcoin Strategy Director Joe Burnett has been promoted to Vice President of Bitcoin Strategy at Strive, indicating the company's increased emphasis on BTC.

What does this acquisition mean? Stronger capital strength, more concentrated Bitcoin holdings, and a clearer strategic direction. In the current market environment, such large-scale moves are worth paying attention to.

12,797 Bitcoins, ranked 11th globally. That's quite a move. But are publicly traded companies all this aggressive now? It feels like someone is accumulating coins every week.

Wow, 12,797 BTC, is this real? Ranked 11th globally, Bitcoin is really about to take off. This acquisition move is indeed impressive, and it's not easy for management to ensure a smooth transition. With such a clear intention of institutions to buy the dip, what are we hesitating for? Holding such a high ranking, Strive really has some skills. After the merger, it directly ranks in the top 11. It feels like the opportunity window to enter the crypto race is closing.

Over 12,000 coins, listed companies are starting to stockpile frantically. The pace is a bit rapid.

Directly taking the 11th spot globally, Strive is doing well. By the way, 12,000 BTC is quite a significant amount.

12,797 BTC... This acquisition is really aggressive, directly ranking in the top 11 globally. The pace of institutional bottom-fishing is getting fiercer and fiercer.
