The adoption of Bitcoin has been amazing over the past year. Several corporate institutions have added the cryptocurrency to their balance sheet, and more could follow the same route in the following months. Game manufacturer Nexon is the latest to invest in Bitcoin after allocating $100 million to the cryptocurrency.

Nexon purchases over 1,700 bitcoins

Publicly-listed game manufacturer Nexon announced that it had invested $100 million in Bitcoin. Thus, the move makes it the latest corporate entity to use its cash reserves to buy and hold the leading cryptocurrency.

Nexon announced yesterday that it bought 1,717 bitcoins, totaling $100 million. The firm stated that the $100 million invested in bitcoins represent less than 2% of its total cash and cash equivalents on hand.

Owen Mahoney, President and CEO of Nexon, said, “Our purchase of bitcoin reflects a disciplined strategy for protecting shareholder value and for maintaining the purchasing power of our cash assets. In the current economic environment, we believe bitcoin offers long-term stability and liquidity while maintaining the value of our cash for future investments.”

The company engages in the production, development and operation of online games and Virtual Worlds.

Nexon joins Tesla, MicroStrategy and others in holding bitcoins

The last few months have seen a trend emerge where corporate entities allocate a certain percentage of their cash reserves to Bitcoin. As a result, these companies and several financial institutions now see Bitcoin as a store of value and a hedge against inflation.

For instance, MicroStrategy and Tesla have invested billions of dollars in Bitcoin. To be sure, their investments have grown substantially over the last months despite BTC price dropping below the $60k mark. Additionally, Square, TIME, and several other companies have also invested millions of dollars in Bitcoin.

Most companies now view Bitcoin as an asset that provides them with long-term stability. They believe the cryptocurrency will help maintain the value of their cash for future investments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
