☆ Acurx Pharmaceuticals to add up to $1 million in bitcoin for treasury reserve, following MicroStrategy's playbook
  + stars: | 2024-11-20 | by ( Tanaya Macheel | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
The board of Acurx Pharmaceuticals approved Wednesday the purchase of up to $1 million in bitcoin to hold as a treasury reserve asset. "This new treasury strategy is a finance strategy and has no impact on our overarching drug development plans." On an X spaces event Tuesday evening, MicroStrategy Chairman and bitcoin evangelist Michael Saylor said he plans to pitch the board of Microsoft in December on his bitcoin treasury strategy. The theme has broadened to the government level this year, with Sen. Cynthia Lummis proposing a national strategic bitcoin reserve this summer. President-elect Trump similarly made mention of a potential national bitcoin stockpile in the same week.

"Our bitcoin treasury strategy and purchase of bitcoin underscore our belief that bitcoin is a reliable store of value and a compelling investment," Eric Semler, Semler's chairman, said in a statement. The stock soared 30% Tuesday, while bitcoin traded lower by about 2%, according to Coin Metrics. Semler, which has a market capitalization of about $210 million, is down more than 30% this year.

This February, the company said it would shift its company focus and brand to bitcoin development.
