• Board gains wider authority to fund Bitcoin treasury plans.

• Capital B targets larger BTC holdings after shareholder vote.

Capital B has secured shareholder approval for a major financing framework tied to its Bitcoin treasury strategy. The Paris-listed company can now pursue up to €5 billion in capital increases and €100 billion in credit instruments. The approval gives the board wider financing capacity as the company expands its Bitcoin accumulation plan.

Capital B Gains Shareholder Backing for Financing Plan

Capital B said shareholders approved all resolutions at its Annual Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting on June 17. The resolutions passed with support of more than 95% of votes cast. The company said the approval covered financial statements, funding capacity, and its corporate name change.

Shareholders representing 164,555,315 voting rights took part in the meeting. That figure represented 54.748% of the 300,564,232 voting rights outstanding on the meeting date. Participation came through attendance, representation, proxy voting, and correspondence voting.

The approved framework gives Capital B authority to establish up to €5 billion in nominal capital increases. Based on the current €0.04 nominal value, that capacity could represent up to 125 billion shares. The company also gained authority to issue up to €100 billion in nominal credit instruments.

Bitcoin Treasury Strategy Moves Into Larger Funding Phase

Capital B plans to use the approved capacity to support its Bitcoin Treasury Company strategy. The strategy focuses on increasing Bitcoin held per fully diluted share over time. The company tracks treasury growth through per-share exposure, not only total Bitcoin holdings.

The approval follows earlier fundraising and Bitcoin purchases by the company. Capital B had already raised about $325 million to support its treasury strategy. Recent disclosures showed the company held 3,139 BTC after several purchases.

Earlier this year, Capital B completed a €15.2 million private placement. The round included backing from Blockstream chief executive Adam Back and Paris-based asset manager TOBAM. The company later used part of the proceeds to buy 192 BTC and then added 4 BTC.

Capital B Advances Name Change and Credit Product Plans

Shareholders also approved the legal name change from The Blockchain Group to Capital B. The company said the new corporate name matches the commercial brand adopted in July 2025. The move also aligns the listed entity with its Bitcoin treasury focus.

The approval came one day after Alexandre Laizet discussed a planned Bitcoin-backed digital credit product. Laizet serves as board director of Bitcoin Strategy at Capital B. He said the proposed product targets European markets and draws from structures used by Strategy and Strive.

Capital B has not announced a launch date for the planned credit instrument. However, the company says it aims to hold 15,000 BTC by the end of 2027. It also targets 1% of Bitcoin’s total supply by 2033.
